Ever was curled up on the couch, scrolling through her phone when a message notification lit up her screen. Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the name,Nathaniel Carter.
Nathaniel: Hey, did you get home safely? I couldn't stop thinking about our little reunion today.
A soft smile tugged at Ever's lips, and before she could think twice, she began typing back.
Ever: Yes, I did. Thank you for asking… It was unexpected seeing you again after all these years.
The reply came almost instantly.
Nathaniel: Unexpected, but maybe fate? Honestly, I never thought I'd run into you again… You look just as beautiful as I remember.
Her cheeks flushed as she read his words. She bit her lip, shaking her head in disbelief.
Ever: You always knew how to make me blush. It's been what… ten years since high school?
Nathaniel: Yeah… And I still remember how you used to sneak me those terrible cafeteria cookies because you thought they were "underrated."
