  -> Да, Вы правы. Я и сама об этом думала. Прихожу к выводу, что лучший вариант - у автора вопроса: Вы снова встречаетесь? - Мы не "встречаемся" (обязательно в кавычках). Он просто мой лучший друг.

опять вместе


Explanation:
if within the context, consider:
- вы опять вместе?
- мы никогда не были "вместе", Глория. Трент -- мой лучший друг.

just not a fan of 'на горизонте' in this particular instance; might not convey the romance, if it is what's meant. plus, "на горизонте" implies certain distance, emotional as well, and/or anticipation etc. so, consider the context carefully.
