Delilah had traveled to LA for Deloitte. Which practically means I have the next three days to myself.

Call Rome.

    ***~~Hunter~~***I sit in the hospital lobby, waiting…My eyes hasn't left where Meghan is sitting beside Delilah, deep in a conversation.It's been over two weeks since we came back.She had blurted it that night without hesitation.I had mulled over it that night, thinking she might change her mind.But she didn't.It was the light streaming from the curtain she had opened that woke me up.She was there, arms crossed, bags packed. “We're leaving,”And just like that, we're back home.It's been the best month of my life, getting the privilege to be by side again, even though the weight of unspoken words lingers.She hasn't talked about us.But that's okay.Being here, constantly waking up next to her is more than enough.There's absolutely nothing I want in the entire world more than this. More than her.“Here,” Soren extends a cup of coffee with a slow exhale.“Thanks man.” I let out, reaching for the coffee.“These two are just inseparable,” he mutters with a slow smile. “They co

    ***~~Knox~~***“Knox,” a familiar voice calls from behind me.I whirl around.My father stands there, eyeing me like he just caught me sprouting a halo.I pocket a hand.Wondering if I have to get through another day of him rage baiting me.But he doesn't.“That's a good choice,” he points to the ring on the open box.My gaze shifts.Yeaah.I've been standing here for a while, staring at this perfect sparkly ring I picked out myself like some lovesick puppy, and wondering if I'm being too fast.It's been seven months of constant happiness.Jenaya makes me so happy, I can't even explain it.I catch myself smiling in the middle of a meeting from her texts.I no longer stay over at my clubs.

  • Her Return, His Regret    233 Not over him

    ***~~Meghan~~***Hunter asks the driver to turn up the heater as we drove off. Warm air washes over my skin as we drive in silence.No Music.And not once did I shift my gaze to him, my hands resting on my stomach.But I can feel his eyes on me. At some point, it becomes unsettling.I hate how uneasy it makes me feel.The drive home is quiet, but it feels louder somehow.Finally, the car pulls to a stop in front of my apartment.I reach for the door, no hesitation whatsoever. I just want to get away from him.He steps out of the car and I think I heard him call me but I don't stop walking.I shuffle to get my key out.As soon as I unlock the door, I hear him say. “Goodnight. See you tomorrow?”I roll my eyes so hard I'm surprised they don't fly out of my skull.See you tomorrow? I almost scoff out loud but I don't.I just step in, glare at him and slam the door shut.Inside, I walk further in. But halfway through, something makes me stop and turn back.The next second, I'm running to
