CHAPTER TWENTY ONE

　　"Are you sure you want to walk all the way back home?" Tristan asked for the umpteenth time and Lydia nodded her head.

　　"Goodness. You are a crazy woman," he laughed.

　　She told him she wanted to spend time with him and didn't want to leave him yet and so she suggested they walk back to her place as it wasn't that far from where they ate.

　　She felt that way, they would talk more and still be by each other's side.

　　Lydia halted.  She stood in front of him, "You don't like it?"

　　"Like what?" Tristan asked.

　　"That I am weird, stupid?" She snarked.

　　Tristan shook his head, showing off his pearly white teeth. "Not at all. I like that. To be honest, I didn't want to part ways with you just yet and I'm glad you suggested this. We can talk more and hold hands more."

　　He entwined their fingers together.

　　Lydia blushed.

　　They walked side by side and teased one another whenever they could until they got to Lydia's place.
