I hate it when people say "You have no idea". It just bugs me. Maybe the do have an idea? Have you ever thought about that? No sir, you haven't.

Anyway, on that random note, I love writing thesee.... YOU HAVE NO IDEA! Haha XD

A sense of anxiety lingered throughout the apartment. She eyed the empty space next to her and wondered why he wasn't here to wrinkle the sheets on that side. Why there wasn't an indent in the pillows where his head should be.

Not a phone call. Not even a text message. But he wouldn't come home tonight. It was 3 a.m. and even if he was here, she would imagine someone else in his space.

The same person that left her running down Broadway on a graduation night. Barefoot, trying to get to him before the plan took off for L.A.

Not a phone call. Not even a text message.

And in the midst of her thoughts, there was a knock on the door. Soft, yet so loud against the hum of late night television and the cat named Cat, purring happily by her feet.

He forgot his key. She told herself. He had come home. And although the thought that someone would be knocking on her door when everyone should be sleeping, she knew it wasn't him. He wasn't in the bed he was supposed to be in tonight and he wouldn't until he snuck in the next morning.

She stood up, and pulled on a pair of boxer shorts, then stumbled past the kitchen in the darkness, not bothering to switch on a light. And standing on her tip toes she looked through the peep hole. Which usually made her laugh rediculously at how big people's heads appeared through them.

But this time, she couldn't even process who was standing there. It was as if she was looking through the glass at a ghost, because the probability of who she saw standing there was about one to one hundred without tangible evidence.

And on the other side of the thick door, Austin dug his hands deep into the pockets of his leather jacket and fiddled nervously with the promise he had broken long ago. He heard the chain come undone, and the tick of the padlock being switched back. Then slowly the light in the hallway suffused into the dark apartment revealed first her long legs, then familiar, yet so strange face to him.

Neither of them knew what to say. When old friends reunite, their usually welcomed by a hug, or a 'You look great'. But old lovers reunite actually quite the opposite. Especially when it was never really established that their love was over.

Simultaneously they scanned eachother up and down, taking in the familiar features that were still so strange as a result in the four year gap and the 2,311 miles that had seperated them.

"Your love is like a bird. It always migrates back home"

Hmm, interesting. First I'd like to point out that fact that

I loved the small detail about the cat named Cat. Clever,

which brings me to my next point. Your story is so perfectly

balanced. It holds the plot, detail, and flawless descriptions.

I can feel the suspense. I'm trying to think of some suggestion

or flaw in this, but I can't. Good job (:
