imessage not working with one contact only

I am having trouble with imessage with one contact only. I can send and receive imessages from other contacts. But there is one contact who imessage will not work with from my end or their end. They are also able to imessage others.

I am able to send an imessage to this contact through messages app on my mac also.

I have an iphone 5 running iOS 7.0.2

They have an iphone 5s also running iOS 7.0.2

iPhone 5, iOS 7.0.2

I didn't want to delete my message thread and adding their email into contacts didn't work, so I figured out another way to get out of green text ****: I signed into iMessage on my laptop and texted the person through there and voila! When I went back into my iPhone, the coveted blue texts returned and I went on to lead my normal life.
