On my way out and just passed the mirror in my lobby and caught a glance of myself with a big smile on my face...

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Liam just asked me on a proper date. !!! He said he obviously wouldn't have felt comfortable doing it till now.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Oh that's Liam calling! I'm going to head over to his place and fill him in everything.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

He just left the apartment and I sat on the couch in disbelief. Disbelief that the past two months brought me here...

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

I just hugged Mark goodbye. For the last time. For a second I envisioned the rest of our lives together. And I know that's not what I want.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

This is the hard decision, but it feels like the right decision

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Of course I immediately started crying.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

If we're together, I can't be with Liam.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

As soon as they came out of his mouth, I had only one thought.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Or at least, the words I thought I wanted to hear.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

He just said the words I've been waiting to hear for two months: I want to get back together.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

He just buzzed up. So, I guess he doesn't carry around his old keys to the apartment…

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Responded: I'm home. Sure, come up.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

My heart is beating a mile a minute.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Just got this text:

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Deep breaths, deep breaths…

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

I'm at The Smith w/ 9 others http://t.co/yvFeTydl

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

Off to meet Caitlin for brunch…

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

But Liam has been really awesome. We have so much fun together and it's so…easy.

[OneAndOnlyLily @OneAndOnlyLily]

I know what you're thinking, but no, nothing has happened. I'm not THAT over Mark.
