Chapter Thirty-Nine

"For you." He said sitting down a cup of starbucks on the table.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him.
"Thought you could use some starbucks.. hows it coming?" He asked.
"Two down.. two to go. Thursday can't come soon enough."
"I know you are just excited to get back to Sewickley living only a block away from me."
"You just know me so well." I said starting to smile. "What time do you leave for Ottawa?"
"I'm heading into the city right after this." He said.
"Well good luck. I will definitely take a break and watch the game. Just think when you are done there I'll be done too!"
"Tell me how they go."
"Yeah, def. I will talk to you later. Good Luck and thanks for the coffee."
"Of course.. bye Jo." He said and walked out of the library.

"What was Sidney doing?" Sophie asked when we left the library.
"He brought me coffee."
"He brought you coffee?"
"Yeah.."
"What does that mean?"
"we are trying to be friends. He's trying to make me trust him again. He wants to get together."
"What do you want?"
"I don't want to get hurt. I don't want to think about him and Brittany together. What I want doesn't really matter because its not happening."
"I can tell in your eyes that you want him back."
"I may want him back and I think about it a lot, but we aren't together and we aren't going to be."
"But you are friends?"
"We are friends.. we have always been friends."
"Okay.. I have to go take this damn test. I'll see you for dinner?" Sophie asked.
"Yeah, sounds good."
