“Okay, so I know you don’t think all this was my fault! Because if you do, you’re sadly mistaken! I mean don’t get me wrong, most of it was on me, but you played a part in this too!”
“How!” She yelled slightly.
“Come on Carmon, let’s keep it real. If you just would have kept your nose where it belonged, then we would have been good.”
“Wow, I don’t believe you. Here I am trying to be a good friend and you’re basically giving me your ass to kiss. I was only looking out for you and your marriage. If you couldn’t see that, then our friendship was a complete waste of time over the last ten years!” Carmon got up from the table and walked out. As she walked out of the restaurant, I just buried my head into the palm of my hand. As I looked up I saw

That’s just how I was feeling at the time. Of course our friendship wasn’t a waste of time. I love you girl. I don’t want to fight anymore!”
“I don’t either!” I said as we both stood up and hugged. We sat back down and ordered our food. While we were waiting for our food, we caught up on what we have been missing in each other life while we were apart.
“So what’s been up? I asked with a smile on my

“What kind a dress?”
“A wedding dress!” Carmon shouted with joy.
“What!” I screamed as well.
“Yep, Alex asked me three weeks ago.”
“Oh my God! I’m so happy for the both of you!” I said.
“Thank you. Now that we are back to normal, I want to ask you something!”
“Sure, what is it?”
“Will you be my matron of honor?” I started to feel my eyes swell up as I said, “Of course I will!
“Good, now enough about me, what’s been going on in your life?” Carmon asked as she folded her arms.
“Well first off I think you will be happy to know that I broke things off with Vaughn!” Her action wasn’t what I thought it should be. She sat there in silence for a while, then said,
“Why?”
“Because he was getting too attached, I mean he was doing boyfriend like things. Like bringing me roses to my office and to top it all, he brought me a brand new car!” After I said that Carmon eyes got big as she said,
“What the fuck!”
“That’s what I said!”
“I hope you didn’t keep it!”
“HELL NO, what do I look like, Boo Boo The Fool. I gave it back to him. I couldn’t keep that car because if I did, I wouldn’t have known how to explain it to
“I thought you were by yourself, because I didn’t see your family. So I got nervous.”
“I don’t know” Phoenix smiled back “I was hoping maybe you’d stay up here with me while I go through some of it so I’m not by myself in case something goes wrong”
A stubborn pout formed on Booker’s lips, followed by expression of pain shimmering across his face. “It’s none of your damn business, so drop it,
“I want to apologize about the last time we got up. I don’t know what got into me. I just care about you a lot.”
I know you said you just got out of a long lived marriage, and you just want to be friends, but I can’t live with that. Whenever I look into your eyes I get butterflies in my stomach just like a young school boy with his first crush. And it isn’t only when I’m with you, that’s the thing, . Every dream I’ve had since the day I met you has been about you, and me, and us. I just can’t get you out of my head. It sounds so cliche but I don’t know any other way to put it. I may not have ever been in love before, and I have never understood what people mean when they talk about love, but if this isn’t love I don’t know what it is. There isn’t anything else it could be, like the way I feel a longing to be with you and the joy I feel about our future. And whatever this feeling is, it’s intense.” Archie was on a full out rant of love for Cinderella but paused when he noticed Cinderella beginning to tear up. “Did I say something wrong?” He continued.
“ What’s your problem ? You can’t fix yourself on what’s already happened. It’s done. It’s up to us now. “
“Is everything all right with you now?” I asked having referred to her arm, but was actually prying deeper than that.
"Why are you saying this to me? That's not what you want to say. That's not what you did."
“I don't know anything about where I’m at, who you are, where you’re taking me, where my family is, or if they’re okay,” I said shyly.
“Yeah he’s a good kid,” she said as if I didn’t know him. “It was nice meeting you” she extended her
“You thought I died in the crash,” he interjected, “I didn’t know, I’m sorry, but can’t we just forget that now and come together like you wanted.”
“I’m sorry,”” Charlie said, pulling Elliott closer to her, “I didn’t realize we were missing.”
“We can’t just pretend that it never happened. Not only will this affect us, but everyone else as well.”
“We haven’t been getting along and now all we do is fight,” I mumbled, “Three years is a long time to be away from each other, so I just thought now was a good time…”
"I'm Dorothea Dawson. But you two will be calling me MISS Dawson." She winked at us and pointed to the door. "Shall we go inside?"
