Chapter 47

Kate POV

            I lay there trying to sleep, but I can’t.  I know Colby is still awake as well.  Sitting up, I startle him.  “I can’t sleep here,” I say getting out of bed.  “Why?” he asks, confused. “I know it shouldn’t, but it bothers me that you slept with her.  For all we know it could have been in our bed,” I say with annoyance.  He looks at me with sudden awareness of what I was saying.  He jumped out of the bed, “come on, let’s sleep in the spare bedroom,” he says.  Shaking my head, “I’d like to be alone tonight, Colby; I’ll take the couch and you take the spare room,” I offer.  “No, I’ll take the couch, you take the spare room,” he says coming over to kiss me on my head.  “I’m sorry for all of it Kate; for my weakness at being taken in,” he says.  Nodding, “I know, I just need a bit of time to get over it,” I say to him.  Hugging him I step back and
