I miss his smile, the way he played with Liam, his touch, and most of all, his presence.
Despite everything he said the last time we were together and all that he has done, I still miss him.
I know I shouldn’t miss him, and that I should just leave things the way they are.
No contact, and especially no showing up at any of his games, where there’s a possibility that we would run into each other.
God. This is all a huge mess.
But how can I pass up an opportunity to go to the Super Bowl?
I’ve always loved football.
I’ve always loved the San Antonio Rangers. To be in the stadium when they win would be a dream come true.
And yes, they’re definitely going to win. No doubt.
I have to go.
Decision made, I go in search of the email I’m expecting for the details.
Reservations about going because of Brady are shoved away as I open the email.
Fifteen minutes later, Liam is running around the apartment in excitement from the news that we’re going to the Super Bowl.
“You can pick one person to go with us, Liam. It’s going to be you, Alex, me, and any friend you want to bring along.”
He runs over to me and hugs me around my legs.
“Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!”
I laugh.
“Don’t thank me, Liam. Thank whatever powers that be that gave us the tickets.”
There he goes again with the jumping.
“You have to decide now who you want to take because we have to leave tonight.”
“Okay,” he says.
Six hours later, we’re all packed in the limo and heading towards the airport.
On the flight, we’re shown to our first-class seats and settle in for the four-hour flight.
Liam and his friend entertain themselves with their tablets loaded with movies and games.
Alex is sitting close to me, so she is able to lean towards me to talk.
“You doing okay?” she asks me.
“Yeah. Why wouldn’t I be okay?”
She gives me a look. A look that says don’t bullshit me or yourself.
“Fine,” I exclaim. “I’m a little on edge. I’m worried about who we’ll run into with these VIP passes. Even after what happened the last time we were in the same room, I still miss him.”
“Are you hoping for you two to make amends and get together?” she asks next.
