I had known Keith for a while, it seemed like he was always there for me. Whether he was saving my butt, or we were just hanging out. But I was afraid I had pushed our friendship to far this time. I hadn’t seen that handsome face once in the past 6 months and it felt weird to be in the same car as him again. I was afraid, afraid he would be angry at me, afraid that he would hate me for putting him and his body guard in a bad situation.

I glanced up and was relieved to see him grinning back at me in the rearview mirror. "Reminds you of old times don’t it doll," he said still grinning that infamous smile. We pulled into his drive way and he took my hand and led me into the house. He sat me on the couch in front of a nice warm fire that he had just lit in the fireplace. I was relieved as I saw the body guards headlight disappearing out of the drive way. He sat down beside me and handed me a steaming cup of coffee. His tone had become serious again.

"So do you want to catch me up on this whole thing or am I just gonna have to sit here all confused? I thought you had left him, that’s what you told me in August."

"I did leave him but somehow we wound up together yet again."

"You gotta stop going back to him baby, he ’s hurting you, Keith said, pointing down at my arm. It was bleeding a little."

"I know," is all I could get out, my throat becoming tight.

He could tell I was going to cry again and he didn’t try to stop me. He put his arm around my shoulder and pulled me close to him, holding me tight. He stayed there with me for a while trying his best to comfort me. It was nice to have a kind shoulder to cry on for once.

"He gently raised my head to look at my face, Are you alright doll?" He asked me.

"Yeah I’ll be fine, I always am."

We sat there and talked in front of that fire all night, me curled up beside him and him still holding me tight in that comforting grip.

A time came when a few minutes passed in silence and I could feel his breathing slow to a point where I knew he was asleep. I laid there next to him, wondering , just wondering, do I have a chance. I fell asleep with this question jumping around in my mind.

The next morning I awoke to a sudden touch of warmth on my forehead. I was hesitant to open my eyes afraid the night before didn’t happen. Afraid I would wake up to find my abusive boyfriend sleeping beside me, as I had done many times before. When I finally did open my eyes I saw Keith sitting at my side smiling down upon me. I sat up and we were staring into each others eyes. He smiled and stroked my cheek, his touch felt oh so good, melting my heart every time. I closed my eyes and I felt the warm gentle touch again but this time it was his lips on mine, oh this was too much. I opened my eyes, and gently pulled away ending our kiss too early. He looked at me longingly, I knew what he wanted but there was no way he was going to get it. He seemed a little surprised when I stood up. He grabbed my hand still staring that pleading stare. But instead of him pulling me back to the couch I pulled him gently to his feet.

I smiled as I led to the door grabbing his keys as I walked outside. I smiled to myself, I’m almost positive he had never gotten that response from a woman before. He came and walked beside me opening the passenger for me. As he got in on the drivers side I smiled remembering old times. Why had we stopped seeing each other? There was nothing between us back then except a fast friendship. He knew where to go, we had made this trip so many times before.

We never made it to our original destination. He pulled over and parked the car. He looked over at me still with a confused expression on his face. He leaned over and kissed me yet again, this time I let him kiss me for as long as he wanted , but I made sure he never made it past the point of just a kiss. This time he ended the kiss first. His eyes pleaded with me, just this once they seemed to be asking. I answered his question quickly.

"No, I’m not like that Keith, I’m just not."

He sighed, Women, he mumbled. I gave a little laugh. Now some people would say I was playing hard to get, but that just wasn't it.

"Alright" he said seemingly dismissing the whole situation. But I knew he was still thinking of it.

As we parked outside of the coffee house I smiled. This place had a history. Keith and I used to go there all the time. It’s where we had met, but that’s a story I‘ll save for a rainy day.

We spent an hour there talking, we never seemed to run out of things to talk about.

He dropped me off at the hotel I was temporarily staying at. He agreed to keep my dog until I could find somewhere else to stay that allowed pets in the building. He offered to let me stay with him for a while, I was tempted but I knew what could happen if we were alone together. He seemed disappointed but at the same time really eager to see me again so we made a date for Friday night, two days from now. I thanked him for everything and I went to check in.
