We had a delicious etables and instead of sitting at the executive table, Aaron and I just found the first empty space and took a seat It was fun to see the looks on the employee’s faces that he sat with and talked to After dinner, Aaron and I reet his employees and I could say hello to everyone I knew Then he led me over to the dance floor and we shared a dance We danced a long sloaltz and then he kissed me, in front of everyone Aaron didn’t seem to be the least bit discombobulated about it either like he had over just a dance at the Christ way

As ere co off the dance floor Hal, one of Aaron’s executives said,

“Aaron, there’s a reporter in the lobby fro for a slice…a one-liner from you Would you mind?”

“No, I guess not” Looking at me he said, “Will you excuse me for a few minutes?”

“Of course, I’et some air,” I told hih the lobby and approach the reporter He looked so handsome in his tuxedo with his red bow tie and cu way in a short ti that as adventurous as I liked ul wasn’t going to be all fun and games I was okay with that

Aaron had also finally h questions with flying colors Melissa is still in the process of forgiving hiet around to it As I turned to go towards the front doors I felt chills run up both of host I’d seen a man walk by the door…he looked familiar…But it couldn’t be him I hadn’t seen him since…No, it just couldn’t be

I turned back towards Aaron My heart beat faster every ti so well Things had started out a little rocky with Aaron, but they were getting better every day Surely the fates couldn’t be that cruel I breathed in the strength that just being in the saave ht I saw in that glance was my paranoia It had to be He and I had a deal…how could he have even found me? He couldn’t have, Robyn…knock it off!

I shook it off, telling myself not to make drama where there was none and I continued out the doors As soon as the door stopped spinning, I felt a tap on my shoulder I turned towards it and saw that I hadn’t been being paranoid after all Standing there in the flesh was the one ain…my ex-husband

“Hey gorgeous! Long time no see” he said

I was stunned into silence I didn’t knohat to say I stood there, stupidly for several seconds and he said,

“We need to talk, babe”
