Walking into work that morning had strange excitement for me. There was something about the texts that made the rule break exciting. I knew how dangerous it was for me also and that kept popping into my mind every now and again. ‘Looking good today.’ Damain messaged. I smiled at my phone. I was about to message him back when he walked by the desk. “There’s a time and place for phones, Miss. Williams.” There was a playful undertone to his voice, but I knew the iciness was for show. We had to keep up appearances. “Apologies.” I placed my phone on the side. “Ouch frosty this morning.” Cleo stated. “What have I missed?” Prue asked, sitting down. “Mr. Ice is out this morning. He just warned Erin for taking a text.” “Oh,” Prue looked at me, confused. I shrugged at her just as Damian was walking back. “Prue, you’re late. Make sure you don’t make a habit of it.”She nodded, as soon as he was gone, she turned and looked at us. “Wow, you weren’t kidding.” She replied.We both

5pm came quicker than we all thought it would after the rubbish start to the day. I exchanged a few more messages with Damian throughout the afternoon and during lunch break. It was nice to have a normal conversation with him, or at least what felt like one. It wasn’t until I opened the chat on the way out of the office that I realized how many messages we had exchanged in such a short space of time.‘Have a great evening tonight.’ He messaged me.It was like he knew I was thinking about him. I wished him the same before getting into my car. As soon as I was home, I headed upstairs to pack an overnight bag, got changed out of my work clothes, and grabbed a snack. I knew Cleo would probably opt to order take away, but I needed to get something in me as I was feeling woozy. I grabbed an apple and quickly bit my way through it.With a mouth full of apple, a bag on my shoulder, and phone in my hand I headed for the door. My phone pinged with a message from Cleo in the group chat asking b

It wasn’t long into the film when my phone buzzed. It was Damian. I smiled while looking at his name. He couldn’t stay quiet.‘I hope the girls didn’t berate you too much.’I was taking a sip of my wine when I read the message and almost choked on it. I couldn’t help but laugh. Then the coughing fit started. Prue patted me on the back to try and help. ‘I think I settled them enough to pause the questions. At least for now.’“Is that the mystery guy again?” Cleo smiled.I smiled and nodded at her. In the blink of an eye, she jumped at me and stole my phone from my hand. She scrolled through my messages. Her eyes went wide, the further she went back through my messages. “You’ve only been talking for a few days, how are there this many messages?!” Cleo exclaimed.I shrugged it off. She read a few messages here and there but couldn’t believe how quickly I had opened up and how much I was messaging him. “I have an idea.” Cleo said. “Get in girls.” Prue knelt down beside me while Cl

My heart sank with what I was about to say. Knowing from my answer what she would advise. “I can’t answer that.”“Then, I would say you need to walk away. You cannot risk everything you have built for a guy that cannot guarantee a future for you and one you cannot say outright that you are in love with.”I knew that was what she was going to say, but it didn’t stop the bitter sting of hearing the words. Now, I just had to find the courage to tell Damian. The rest of the time with my mum, I was distracted and distant. She tried her best to pull conversation from me but could see the turmoil in me. She gave me a tight hug and said goodbye and asked me to call her if I needed anything, at all. There was no way I could put off talking to Damian any longer. I drove around aimlessly for a while trying my hardest to think of what to say to him. Eventually, I bit the bullet and headed home. I hit the call button on the phone as I was stepping into the door. “Hi,” my voice was low. I

“Fuck's sake!” I snapped at myself.How did I get this so wrong. All I had to do was tell her how I felt and I blew it. I had to tell her. I messaged her asking to talk but there was no reply. I had to tell her I liked her. She had to know that I would not have done any of this if I didn’t truly like her and wanted her.I headed to bed more frustrated than I had ever felt. I tried my hardest to sleep but it was no use. Each time I closed my eyes, she was there. I pulled myself from bed at around 1am and grabbed a glass of water. I stood at the kitchen counter taking a sip after sip of the water. My phone screen flashed and the time was 01:32am. Checking the messages, they had not been read.“Argh!” Throwing my water down the sink, and dragging myself to the sofa I flopped down with my head in my hands. Frustration built inside me. Had I lost her because I couldn’t tell her how I felt?So many questions, swirling around like a whirlpool in my head. Check, after check on my phone bu
