Adrian had just come home after spending the whole night talking to Ben. She picked up her phone and dialed a number as she took a seat on the couch in her living room.
"Hello." Adrian said, as she fiddled with her hair.
"Hi Adrian, what's up?" Grace said on the other end. She and Adrian had stayed in touch, even though Adrian had moved to New York and Grace was in college in Utah.
"I need to tell you something but you have to promise to not tell anyone." Adrian said excitedly.
"Okay, what's going on?" Grace said as she too got a little excited.
"You promise not to tell anyone?" Adrian asked.
"Yeah yeah, just tell me." Grace said impatiently.
"I realized last night, that I'm still in love with Ben." Adrian said.
"Ben Boykewich?" Grace asked.
"Yeah who else? I went over to his place last night and had dinner with him and Amy. Amy went to her place early and Ben and I spent the night talking." Adrian said.
"Are you sure you're in love with him?" Grace asked.
"Yeah and I'm going to get him back." Adrian said.
"I don't think that's a very good idea Adrian." Grace said.
"Why?" Adrian asked getting irritated.
"Ben's been in love with Amy since the freshman year of high school and he actually went to New York after her." Grace said.
"I know, but Ben and I were married and we have history and I can make him fall in love with me again." Adrian said.
"I really hope you're sure you're in love with him Adrian and this isn't one of your schemes to get back at Amy. You remember how your attempt at getting back at Amy ended up the last time right?" Grace said.
"Of course I remember. I'm sure Grace, I'm sure I love him." Adrian said.
"But what about Omar?" Grace asked.
"What about Omar?" Adrian asked nonchalantly.
"Are you sure you guys are over this time?" Grace asked.
"Yeah. I realized that the reason why I didn't want to marry Omar was because marrying him just didn't feel right. I really loved him and he's a great guy but he's just not the guy for me." Adrian said.
"And Ben is?" Grace asked.
"He just might be." Adrian said, hanging up the phone.
Adrian didn't care about what anyone thought, she wanted Ben back, so she'd get him back. She knew that he'd come to New York only for Amy but he was the same guy who had fought with Amy for her. She owed it to herself to give her and Ben a shot. The last time they were together, Adrian was broken and she didn't know how to fix herself but now she was fixed, a lot of which was thanks to ben. Her benny.
