" I'm scared. And even though you can hurt me with just a word, I can't seem to stop loving you." \--- After months of flirting, you spent an amazing night together. Realizing you were in love with…
friends what friendship you left you completely ghosted me not a word not a fucking word and after what we damn it don't ignore me will you just look at me so where is she her royal highness We were supposed to walk grid 15 this morning, but she blew me off again.
I don't have a problem with her.
She has a problem with me.
Tension? That's putting it mildly.
She knows just how to push my buttons.
What, royal highness? Well, I started calling her duchess because I know it pisses her off.
And the thing that sucks is that she's actually a really great archaeologist.
Not that I would ever say that to her face.
Last thing I'm going to do is stroke her ego.
Pretty much.
We ran in the same circles.
Worked on projects together.
I even helped her with her thesis.
And we eventually got...
Close.
Really close, actually.
Yeah, we were best friends, but you know how that goes.
We spent the entire year dancing around a pretty intense flirtation.
Came to a head the night of my graduation, and, well, you can guess what happened.
Man, amazing doesn't begin to cover it.
My life changed when I met her.
Before I knew it, I'd fallen.
Hard.
Everything had been building up to that night.
All of the flirting, the accidental touches, the tension.
And when it finally did happen, it was nothing short of explosive.
And I thought, this is it.
And the morning after, I woke up and she was just gone.
Gone.
I hadn't seen or talked to her until she showed up three weeks ago when Dr. Balash dropped out of the expedition.
Ironic, right? The thing was, I could have sworn she felt the same way.
My friend said she went out on a couple of dates after I left for the expedition, but that never amounted to anything.
Am I bitter? No.
No? Well, maybe a little.
The thought of her with another guy still makes me ill.
She was mine.
No, working together won't be a problem.
As a matter of fact, she and I are meeting after dinner tonight to go over the latest site reports.
Well, wish me luck.
She's acting like we're basically strangers, so...
Might be a bit awkward.
Thanks, man.
See ya.
