"Oh, good, I guesse." Great, actually. But how could she tell Ben that? "I'm making a demo CD, close to making my big break." She smiled awkwardly. "So, what do you want to talk abaout? I guesse you could have come to just ask how I am, but then we wouldn't have needed to come back here."
-x-
"Yah." That was good sign, at least. She didn't just want him to go away, so there was hope!! Ben walked quickly forward, smiling softly. "Wow, that's great. You must have worked really hard.. so, where are we going?"

Ben starred at her while she spoke. This was like a dream. He snapped out of it when she finished. "Wow, that's great. I'm glad it's working out." he grinned. "I just wanted to catch up and talk about ... us." he said not trying to sound like all he wanted to know was if they were together again or not.
----
Charlie kept walked. "To my apartment. I think we need to catch-up. We need to talk.” She said, really she just wanted to tell him how she felt. She had been thinking for a long time about what it is she wanted to tell him. She kept walking, hoping he would follow.

"Of course..." Taylor tried to smile, but it didn't really work right. That was really all threr was to talk abaout, right? 'Us'. "Look, Ben, we can't just pick up where we left off." Yah, no way. "Things are different now. I-" But she couldn't get it out.
-x-
"Duh!" Matt laughed. Of course they were going to her apartment, where else? "Talk, yes. That sounds like a good idea. wHY didn't I think of that?" That was supposed to be a joke, although it came out really fast in all of his nerves.

The words hit Ben. She must of found someone else. "Wait…what?” he raised an eyebrow and stood up. “Oh, so you had another boyfriend.” He choked out. He had never considered that in all his days in jail. “I understand…” he added, feeling stupid.
----
Charlie laughed at him and his nervousness walking into her apartment building. She made her way up the stairs and down the hall to her small apartment. Opening the door she said, “So this is my place.” And throw her purse on the table nearby. She walked to the couch and sat down. “So…” she began.

Taylor looked at the couch nervously. "Ben, it's more complicated then that... it's been 5 years. Both of us are different people, changed by certain events." She refused to admit he was right. She had found someone, but that would just hurt him even more.
-x-
"Nice." He thought out loud, surveying the apartment. Finally his gaze found it's way to Charlie. "I missed you" He stated quietly. "I'm sorry for leaving, it's not like I had much choice..."

"Yeah, yeah I get it." Ben began. He was hurt. "I've changed, but I thought we would still have something." he sighed sitting back down. He coldn't get over the fact that someone else had been with her when for so long he wished he was there.
----
Charlie rolled her eyes. "You had a choice, now I don't know if you did it or not but I don't know if I can forgive you for leaving. You don't understand what you put me through." she crossed her legs leaning into the couch more. "I loved you Matt."

She shook her head, trying to stop the tears that threatened to fall. "There is something." She wispered. "But thngs are so much different... " After taking a deep breath, Taylor admitted to his accusations. "It's more complicated then me just dating someone else. Ben, I'm pregnant, and I'm engaged."
-x-
It felt as if Charlie had stabbed him, right in the heart. Loved, as in, past tense. "And if I didn't do it? How was that possibly my choice? I would never have left you..." How could she think like that. He knew how much pain it had caused her, but how cold she blame him for it? When she didn't even know he was guilty?
