Chapter 40: Emma

It was our first vacation together and I knew that he was going to ask what was wrong. He kept going on about it on the way there. Subtly hinting about me not having my period for the last two months.

What is it with men?

Why don't they say exactly what is on their mind? He asked if we should stop at the store on the way to the airport, because I forgot to pack something. I ignored him, pretending that I didn't know what he was on about. I could see the disappointment on his face when I said that there was no need.

Was he upset, because he knew? Or was it the fact that I didn't tell him?

The season was starting and he needed to get his head back in the game. He had been jogging and doing exercises with Mason when he had managed to get out of bed.

Which hadn't been often.

The thing is I knew that I wanted to be with him. There was no doubt about that in my mind, but the thing that got me was the fact that we had moved so quickly.

Kind of too quickly!
