Chapter 20: Our First Kiss

Turns out, living in Luca's house is as complicated as I expected, but not for the reasons I thought.

Over the next several days, I manage to avoid Luca most of the time we're at home. It isn't hard - we've had some long days on set, which means we often just head straight to our separate beds when we get back. On the nights we have a little extra time, I usually spend it preparing for our upcoming scenes while Luca goes down to the home gym in his basement and squeezes in some training.

But even though I can avoid him, I can't avoid all the random baggage I have regarding this house. I try to stay out of the dining room at all costs, but that's not the only place where Luca and I share a less-than-pleasant memory. One night when I can't sleep, I'm wandering around the ground floor and stumble into the living room. Instantly, my mind goes back to the first time I was in this room.
