Full Circle

Samantha sat at the booth Becca had earlier reserved, playing with her bracelet. She was now reunited with her old friends and her ex, who happened to be sitting right across from her next to his girlfriend. While everyone was wrapped up in conversation, Sammy tried to distract herself from looking at the all to familiar man sitting across from her. She failed as her dark brown orbs roamed over his muscular tattooed arms. She didn’t stop there; she studied his plump lips, his hazel eyes, the backwards cap he wore on his head. She let her eyes roam back down to only come in contact with a pair of hazel ones. Her breath caught as she quickly unlocked her eyes from his.

Shit! Shit! Shit!

She sighed and laid her head on the back of the booth. The alcohol she consumed wasn’t making this situation any better. She could feel the liquor sitting in her stomach and her stomach didn’t like it one bit.

“Samantha, are you ok?” asked Brian.

Samantha snapped her head up.

“Yeah, I’m ok. Just had a bit to much to drink.” That was only half of her problem. She didn't plan on sitting across from her ex when Becca invited her out. Matt summoned a waiter and asked for a glass of water.

“You drink now?” asked Zacky.

Samantha nodded before explaining, “Occasionally. But I think I went over my limit this time,” she laughed lightly.

The waiter came back with the glass of water and gave it to Matt, who then gave it to Samantha.

“Thanks, Matt,” she said.

Matt nodded.

“Yeah, you guys missed it. She chugged five beers earlier!” said Becca.

“Holy shit! What happened to our innocent girl?” asked Jimmy with fake hurt in his voice.

Samantha laughed, “Life happened, Jim.”

Jimmy pretended to wipe a tear from his eye.

“Anything else we should know?” asked Johnny.

Samantha decided to have a little fun with this.

“Well, I have a 3 year old daughter, her name-“

“What?” Matt blurted out.

Samantha spewed water out from her mouth as she laughed.

“She’s just fucking around, Matt,” said Becca, handing Sammy a napkin.

By now all the guys were in a fit of laughter, slapping their hands on the table.

“Very funny, Samantha,” said Matt.

Matt’s girlfriend, Anna, was getting annoyed. She hated how everyone was so preoccupied with Samantha. She was usually the center of attention, especially Matt’s attention.

“So, Samantha. Do you have a boyfriend?” asked Anna.

Samantha cleared her throat before answering, “Nope. Not right now.”

Samantha winked at Becca. Becca smiled, remebering what happened ealier between Sam and Corey.

“Ah, ok. You know what they say, the prettiest ones break the most hearts,” snickered Anna.

Everyone grew quiet as they waited for Samantha’s reaction. The girl they knew 7 years ago avoided confrontation. However, the alcohol in Sam’s system gave her confidence.

“What are you trying to say, Anna?” asked Sam.

“You broke Matt’s heart right? You also said you didn't have a boyfriend so i'm sure you've broken
many-“

“What the fuck did you just say?” Samantha sneered.

Matt looked at his girlfriend in disbelief, “Anna, don't start-“

“No, Matt. Let Samantha explain herself.” says Anna, smirking.

Samantha was seeing red now. Did Matt tell everyone she broke up with him?

“Explain? Explain what? How Matt decided to break up with me? How he walked out on me? You know what, I’m not going to explain shit to you. You need to learn to keep your fucking mouth shut and not speak until you know the actual facts.”

Becca pulled her away from the booth, “Come on, Sam. Jimmy and I will take you home.”

Samantha shook her head at Matt before leaving. Matt sighed loud as he put his face in his hands.

“All i did was ask her a question”

“Shut up. You knew what you were doing!” Zacky said sharply.

Matt growled as he lifted his head from his hands.

“You just had to start shit, Anna. I told you what really happened between Samantha and I."

Anna didn’t say anything.

“I need a fucking drink. I’m going to Johnny’s Bar. Don't wait up for me, Anna," said Matt.

With that, he got up and walked out the bar.

Notes
