Thanks to everyone who reviewed- they were great! Thanks!
"I know you must be surprised to see me" Henry started to say
Betty laughed bitterly and then looked at Henry without any emotion
"Charlie and I well we were thinking of moving back here" Henry started to say
"Well I wish you both the best" Betty said and then started to move past Henry to get to her door but Henry stepped in front of her to stop her
"I know this couldn't have been easy"
"Easy?" Betty glared at him and then continued "no Henry it wasn't easy- I loved you and you left me, and I know we both knew that, but it still hurt" she looked up at him, with tears starting to form in her eyes
"Charlie and I were thinking of moving here but separately" Henry said as he looked at Betty
"What" Betty looked at him surprised as she wiped a tear away
"Charlie knows I'm just with her because of the kid, she wants to try living separately. We both thought it would be better to do that here, where I can work" and he paused watching Betty "and I want to be here…because you're here"
"Henry…" Betty started to protest
"I know it won't be easy" Henry said as he reached down to grab her hands and hold them in hers between them. Betty looked down at their hands "but I want to try…with you" he said softly as he leaned in closer to her. Betty looked up at him, not sure what to say and after a minute she looked at him closely "I don't know, I need to think about it"
Knowing that he hadn't convinced her, Henry decided to try to convince her, he wanted to be with her.
"Move in with me" Henry said quickly, he wanted Betty to know he meant what he said
"What?" Betty said surprised
"I know we tried before, but this time its different" Henry said as he held her hands
"I..I don't know, I have to think about it" Betty said and then pulled her hands out of henrys. She wasn't sure how she felt about Henry and now that she had feelings for Daniel, she wasn't sure if being with Henry was the right thing. Betty turned from Henry and quickly went to the door and went into her house.
Henry watched the door for a minute and then grabbed his things and walked down the street.
