That day when I left was 10 years ago. I never spoke to him again. I regret it, I loved him so much, I just didn’t want to tell him cause he didn’t feel the same way. So now I’ve moved on with my life, I have a new boyfriend, and a new life. I was walking around through the mall, trying to find a new dress for tonight. It was my 28th birthday and my friends were taking me to a club. Everyone was going to be there. My family, friends, and my boyfriend. When I came back home I started to get ready and by 8 I was at the club entrance.

“Hey look everyone! It’s the birthday girl!” Marc shouted. He was my boyfriend, I cared about him a lot. But I wasn’t sure if I loved him. Everyone gave me a hug, while my boyfriend was last, and he gave me a kiss. I had fun at the party, everything was great. Until I saw Marc, with another girl. I knew this was going to happen. So I just walked over to him and smiled.

“Glad your having fun Marc, see ya around some time.” I mumbled and walked off. He caught my hand and looked at me.

“I wasn’t doing anything!” He exclaimed, I pulled away.

“Sure. Whatever.” I said and tried to pull away again, but he kept his grip.

“Baby, I wasn’t doing anything! We were, just talking.” I was disgusted at how he could lie to me, while looking into my eyes.

“Just leave me alone alright, I don’t need you.” He wouldn’t let go of me.

“But I thought you loved me?” He asked, I felt his hand creep up my dress and I swatted it away.

“I don’t love you, I never loved you. I never even told you I loved you!” I yelled, this time people heard me and was watching.

“Come on baby, don’t be like that. You know you do.” I smelt the alcohol on his breath and I pulled away from him.

“Go to hell Marc.” I mumbled and walked away, this got him upset so he came to me and turned me around.

“Don’t ever talk to me like that!” He yelled and slapped me. This was not a good choice by him, especially since we were in the middle of a club, with lots of people watching us.

“Don’t ever hit her like that!” I heard a voice yelled and the man tackled Marc. By the time the fight could be stopped Marc had a black eye and a cut lip. Marc was escorted out of the club, while the man who tackled him left without a trace. But deep inside I knew who it was, I just wouldn’t admit it to myself. It was Kevin.

Later that night I lay in my room, I still had 30 minutes of my birthday left. Then a phone call got me out of my daydream. When I answered it, not a sound was made. I was just about to hang up when I heard a guy singing.

Chorus: Oh baby I'm missing you We used to love so strong Tell me where did we go wrong oh baby I'm missing you they say I'll learn to forget but it sure ain't happened yet

Been checking out the places where we used to go (used to go) been looking for your face inside the crowd I've been talking to the people that we used to know but nobody wants to say where you hang out And when I call your phone seems like your never ever home and you don't return my calls (return my calls) no it tears me apart it's breaking up my heart

Chorus:

I still have your pictures hung around my room they're the only thing that's left of you and me oh Girl what can I do to make you come back soon and make it just the way it used to be Oh is it someone new could never go on without you girl I don't wanna think about it (think about it) I can't sleep at night no this can't be right come back into my life (come back baby come back)

Chorus

I know there's a chance for you and I and I believe there's no way our love could die so no matter how long it takes I'll wait for you and whatever it takes I'll be there for you I'll be there, ill be there Chorus (X2)

I knew that voice, it was a voice I could never forget, and by the end of the song tears were rolling down my face.

“Kevin?” I whispered, there was no answer for a few moments.

“Hey Nikki.” He replied, his voice was hoarse, so I knew he was crying.

“Oh Kevin I miss you so much!” I cried on the phone. I was bawling literally.

“Go to the front door.” He instructed. My eyes opened wide and I threw down the phone while running to the door. When I opened it, there was Kevin. No words could be said so we just embraced each other. 10 years apart, and this whole time we both knew what was right. He just held me, like he’s wanted to ever since I left that day. When he looked up I saw him looking into my eyes, and he kissed me. This time he felt something. Before he was so scared he wouldn’t let himself fall for her, he thought it was a mistake.

He had a long time to think about it, and he let go of what he thought was right, because he knew he was wrong. He swept me off my feet and carried me to the bedroom. Our clothes were thrown on the floor and our mouths were glued together in a long, passionate kiss. He was over me, the exact same scene of what had happened exactly 10 years ago. But we both knew what was going on. We both knew what was going to happen. That night we made love over and over, and after we fell asleep into each other’s arms.

He mended my broken heart, and came back. He came back for me.
