Lukas couldn't believe what his eyes were seeing. Sure, she may have looked slightly different, but he was still able to recognize her, mainly from her bright green eyes that he had last seen brimming with tears.

"J-Jesse?!"

The ebony-haired girl recoiled slightly at seeing the man in front of her. "Wha- Lukas?!" she exclaimed. Lukas was lost for words. Jesse, the girl who he had left in tears, was standing right in front of him?! "W-What are you doing here?" he asked cautiously. Lukas didn't want to anger the girl since he had seen some of her wrath and knew he was most likely going to be the recipient of that rage if he fucked up. "I live in this city. What are you doing here?" the girl replied. "This is the city I moved to," Lukas responded. Silence enveloped the two. Sure, it had been years since they last saw each other and had so much to catch up on, but the way they left things had created an awkward atmosphere around the two.

"Sooo, this is where you wanted me to move to with you?" Jesse hesitantly asked. Lukas nodded in response. "Heh, funny how a year after you moved, I move to the same exact city not realizing you were living here and asked me to move to," Jesse chuckled. Lukas also gave a light chortle at the irony of it all. "The irony is so bright I need sunglasses," he joked. Jesse laughed, her lips turning upward into a large smile. Lukas couldn't help but feel heat rise to his cheeks. It had been so long since he had last seen her smile and laugh, and it felt like he was falling in love all over again. "So, do you wanna maybe catch up over a coffee sometime?" Lukas asked, rubbing the back of his head. Jesse once again smiled at Lukas' bashful behavior. "Yeah, here, let me give you my number so we can arrange it," she replied, grabbing a pen from her purse and a napkin from the table next to them. Jesse then scribbled the series of numbers before handing it to Lukas.

"Text or call me whenever. I'm almost always free."

Lukas smiled as he pocketed the small piece of paper.

"Sounds great."
