As much as it pains everyone to admit it, evidence seems to indicate that Rihanna and Chris Brown are headed for a reunion. And even though they haven't admitted it yet, they're not exactly being subtle about it.
The former (and possibly current) couple infamously split in 2009 after Brown sent Rihanna to the hospital with bruises and a fat lip, ending in an ugly restraining order and a community service sentence Brown could still possibly be serving. But after being spotted kissing and dancing at a NYC nightclub on Monday night, that's just one more item in a long list of signs that the two stars still hold burning torches for each other.

First, the 24-year-old "We Found Love" singer revealed to Oprah recently that she and Brown "love each other, and [they] probably always will." Around that time, the two were spotted on the same yacht while vacationing in St. Tropez.
Then, at this year's MTV Video Music Awards, she and Brown had a quick hug, kiss, and head pat in front of a stadium full of audience members and rolling cameras.
And now, there's an alleged recent display of affection at NYC's Griffin nightclub, where witnesses say Brown took off his shirt and danced on a table for his former flame, and the two reportedly spent the night dirty dancing and making out. They are also said to have arrived and left the club only moments after each other, and Brown was seen leaving Rihanna's hotel the next morning.

Brown's recent ex, model Karrueche Tran, doesn't appear to be happy about the recent headlines.
"there's a difference between a man and a boy." she tweeted, later adding, "I prefer men."
With all the attention surrounding both Rihanna and Brown, which is multiplied whenever they're together, there's little doubt that they know that their romantic escapades are going to be captured in one way or another. The real question is when they'll face the music and admit it.
