"Erik."
One word brought a million thoughts. One voice brought many emotions. He didn't want to turn around. He didn't want to see if the dull, betrayal was still in her eyes. He had spent months wanting to sort it all, now that she was here, he wanted to run again. Running was safer.
It was safer than playing with hearts, safer than getting his broken again. Or breaking her's again.
"You were the first person I ever let myself feel that way about."
He had ruined all future relationships she could have. She would spent each, petrified they would betray her too. The thought of someone else running their fingers through her curly hair or kissing her made his blood boil. And brought up that emptiness. Ondina didn't deserve him.
But here she was. Of course he had no idea what was going to happen. If she was going to slap him, or indulge his deep, never fading wish of another chance.
"You'd be amazed , the wondrous possibilities that could begin with a simple hello."
Maybe this was his second chance. Her coming up to him. There was only one way to find out.
Erik turned around to face Ondina.
"Hello."
