The start of something bigger. Will add to it when I can tie it all together   I wait in front of the bleachers, where we agreed to meet. Another class is just wrapping up on the track.  With nothing better to do I lean against the side of the stand and watch them. The huddled class breaks to head to the change rooms and suddenly a familiar figure emerges from within the group.   Emi   And for the first time in the 2 months since we broke up, she acknowledges my existence. She stops and stares back at me for what feels like an hour. The sudden sensation of someone slapping my backside snaps me back to reality   “This is control to space cadet Nakai, do you read us?” Miki jokes as steps up onto the first row of seats behind me before draping herself over my shoulders.  “ ‘sthe matta babe? Something wrong?” she follows my gaze “ex giving you trouble? Well then...” She grabs my chin and turns my head towards hers and presses her lips to mine as my brain begins to catch up I kiss her back with force. I reach up and run my hand through her hair. All to soon she pulls away and looks over my shoulder   I turn my head back and look down to the other end of the track. The rest of the class has gone, but still Emi watches us. The look on her face would once have been heart breaking. Now it’s just pitiful   I try to fight it, but fail terribly as a shit-eating grin spreads across my face
