After all, it had been two years since she'd seen him, and the last time they saw each other, she promised herself that she wouldn't give in to that desire anymore.
They had known each other for 15 years but lived far apart. During all the time they knew each other, they only saw each other in person 3 times, those only 3 times were enough for her to catch fire every time.
The two met on the internet, but the connection they had was as if it were from past lives, when they saw each other in person they felt like touching each other all the time, they tried at any opportunity to defy Newton's third law, which says that two bodies cannot occupy the same space. After all, when they were together, they could swear they were one.
However, although they loved each other very much, they had never been able to really be together. They were always with other people, they both had too many responsibilities in the very city they lived in for them to drop everything to live with each other. Two years ago she'd decided she'd better stop this altogether, because every time she left she felt her heartbreak, and Charlie felt the same way.
Jessica was sure she no longer wanted him when the opportunity arose to visit the city where he lived. Both were committed to other people, but they arranged to see each other to have a few beers together with their companions.
When she saw him, she hugged him, the hug lasted less than she would like, but it was necessary that it be that way so that his wife wouldn't find it strange or feel jealous, at the same time, Jessica was also worried about her husband.
They talked and drank a little, they laughed, they both felt nothing much complicated most of the time there, nothing that made them uncomfortable and sad, it was being a relaxed night.
Until… For a moment, their eyes met, that moment only lasted about 5 seconds as she took her glass of beer, while he took a bite of food. But the two pairs of eyes in that instant dilated, Jessica's heart sped up, and at that moment, she could only think of one thing... One single thing:
- Holy crap.
