Hadn't they wasted enough time? Why had Diana mentioned Singapore to him at all if this wasn't what she wanted? Drudging their history back up these past few months had him all sorts of confused, and now she was going to leave and he was supposed to what? Let her? Without even trying to give her a reason to stay? Five years apart was enough, he determined. History couldn't be allowed to repeat itself.

He placed his hand on her waist within seconds of her gloved hand touching his cheek and pulled her into a short kiss. The kiss was chaste compared to the many they shared years ago, but hopefully it would say what his words couldn't seem to express. Hopefully, he hadn't just ruined them more with his forwardness.
