“I forgot.”

He didn’t move.

“I forgot there was two of you.”

Silence.

I looked back up at him.

“That wasn’t you.”

A slow shake of his head.

I laughed nervously.

“I’m such an idiot.”

I pushed away from the tree to the side a little.

My jealousy evaporated so quickly it almost made me feel dizzy.

I looked at him.

Then smiled.

“So…”

I stepped closer. He grabbed my wrist.

“…you came looking for me.”

He didn’t answer.

Then, he released me.

I frowned.

“What?”

He turned away.

“Wait.”

He kept walking away.

I followed.

“Where are you going?”

Nothing.

“Seriously?”

He pushed through the trees.

I hurried after him.

“Are you mad at me?”
