Hmmm… Maybe she was mad.

No. I did

But I am sorry

Wanna tell me why?

What was he gonna say? Your brother picked a fight with me for no reason and we both got arrested. Might have been true and she’d probably find out sooner or later, but he wasn’t going to be the one to tell her.

Nothing important.

Important enough to stand me up

Important doesn’t mean unavoidable

So you just couldn’t help it then

That’s right

It was out of my control

And you’re sorry?

Very

Ant didn’t answer him for a while. A good minute or two. Finally Romeo’s phone dinged.

Why should I believe you?

Good question. Why should she believe me, he wondered. Then he wrote back.

I’m not perfect

But I don’t lie

There was another pause. Romeo figured this was it. She was either going to give him a second chance or kick him to the curb. Only time would tell. When she answered him, this is what she wrote.

You know you totally missed out

How’s that ?

I looked exceptionally hot tonight

Is that so?

(Sexy wink emoji)

Maybe you’ll give me another chance?

I dunno…

Come on

Let me make it up to you

Nothing. Romeo stared at his phone, but nothing… She was making him sweat. It was the longest minute of his life.

Ant, on the other hand, wasn’t sweating it at all. She liked this feeling of being in control. It was a welcome change from the hurt and self doubt she felt only hours ago. He was in trouble and he knew it.
