Bab 289: I Can't Do This

"We met our senior year of high school," Aaron said simply. "The seating chart was ordered alphabetically by last name and Keeley introduced herself to me by commenting on how similar our names were."

She was surprised he remembered that tiny detail. Even she had forgotten what she said during their first real encounter.

"That was all? How did you start dating?"

In this life or the last one? Keeley wasn't sure how to answer that question. Thankfully, Aaron took it for her once again.

"We were best friends first. I was a bit of a statue back then but she kept talking to me and asking me to do things until we became friends. We were apart for a while during college because I was in Boston and she was still here in New York but when we met up again, we sort of picked up where we left off."
