Chapter 33

Paige

He’s waiting for me when I walk out of the salon, standing up against the wall with a stormy look on his face. I don’t say anything to him, I just stand in front of him, then incline my head to tell him to come with me.

He walks beside me with his hands in his pockets and his brows tightly knit together. As we get into my car, we still haven’t spoken and continue on that way until we arrive at my flat. I let us in through the front door and hang my bag and keys up by the door, before leading the way to the living area where he pauses, looking around quietly.

I move about the kitchen preparing some tea and sandwiches. I don’t drink coffee at the moment, and since it’s usually only me or my mother and Daniel, tea is all I have.

When I walk out holding the tray, he looks up at me, a framed photo of he and I together in his hand.

“Is it strange that I have them up?” I ask him as he places the frame back on the bookcase and moves quickly to take the tray from my hands.

Shaking his head he says, “You should have seen the wall in my bedroom while I was home. I had this whole collage thing going on.” Giving me a sad smile, he carries the tray over to the coffee table in front of the couch and sets it down.

He clears his throat, “This is all very English of you,” he points out, as we sit next to each other on the couch. I laugh a little through my nose and take a sip of tea, enjoying the warmth of the liquid as it slides down my throat. I don’t know what to say, I finally have him here with me, and I’m really not sure how to act. I want everything to be exactly how it was before. I want to touch him, kiss him, be with him. But instead I’m sitting here, sipping tea.

“When were you going to tell me Paige?”

I place my mug back on the tray and turn towards him, meeting his eyes. “Soon, Elliot, I was going to tell you soon.”

“How soon? Tomorrow? When the baby was born? When it was 20 and came looking for me? When?”

“Elliot, I understand that you’re upset with me, I haven’t handled things very well between us at all. But please understand that I didn’t want you to feel obligated to come back to me. If you were going to do it - I wanted you to do it on your own. I was going to tell you very soon, I was just… waiting, I guess.”

“So you were testing me?” he asks.

“No… I don’t know. I just needed to know that you weren’t with me solely for the sake of the baby, I needed to know that if you came back it was because it was me you wanted. I didn’t want to trap you.
