“How have you been?”

Him breaking the silence first.

“Good.”

More silence. Gosh I know I could do better than just reply ‘good’ now I made it more awkward!!! 

“I see you've been eating good.”

I laugh.

“What else am I supposed to say to delicious holiday food, no.”

“You could’ve shared.”

“Such words don't live in my mind's vocabulary.”

He chuckles as he slows down at a railway crossing. 

“….would you have shared with me?”

My ears tingled, my throat went dry, and disbelief rushed into mind.

“W-what?”

My eyes met his for a moment, as that was broken by a shoved forward from the car behind us. His hand was over my chest hovering above as he looked at the back at the car behind us. While I looked around us and we’re in the middle of the railway tracks.

“Dolt-“

Behind him, the train was incoming fast.
