DANIELIt's hard to anticipate the outcome of this journey, and that unravels me. Deep in my gut, I know I won't like what I will find, and I guess that's why I let Liam tug along. I may not tell him, but having him here is giving me strength. To deal with whatever goes down between Kevin and me.Nineteen hours later, we are both staring at the sign post. A hundred meters ahead, it read. I hadn't realized my hands were shaking until Liam placed his on top and gave me an encouraging smile.“I know I'm no prize,” he began, staring up at me. “And I am confusing most of the time and I will probably annoy you to death, but I am here, for a lifetime, if you want me.”His words brought forth this warmth in my heart and I didn't feel so nervous anymore.
