I was out of ideas. Officially, I was done. I didn't know what the hell else I could do to get Eddy to trust me. At this point, it was probably useless because I had tried everything. Short of kidnapping her and holding her against her will until she agreed to love me, what else was there?

I paced my hotel room. The television was on and whatever program was playing was blaring loud, but I could barely hear it. It had been about an hour since I had dropped her at her friend's place. She was supposed to be here with me. Being back in this hotel room would have been a lot more bearable if she was here with me. I offered her a place to stay and she said no. I offered her room service, and the spa and she still said no. She might have loved her friend and wanted to spend time with her, that was a possibility. It wasn’t that she thought I was unbearable and didn’t want to spend any time with me unless she absolutely had to.

Was that the case? Was I simply detestable to her? Because at this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if the answer was yes. It felt like it and she wasn’t giving me any indication of the opposite.

So, there it was. She hated me. She’d do anything to stay away. The thought of staying with me, even with unlimited perks on offer made her skin crawl. I would never have pushed her to do something she wasn’t comfortable with. I wanted her to be comfortable… with me, but it looked like that wasn’t possible. There was no way to keep Eddy close to me. She just didn't want to be.

Well, now what? I was back in my suite and I had the rest of the day to kill. I quickly checked the time. It was late evening. The socially acceptable time to get stinking drunk. Perfect. The bar should have been restocked since the last time I had stayed here. I started heading there to check, when my phone rang. It was all the way in the bedroom. Checking who was calling, I read Charlie’s name. Oh, joy. Did I really need a sermon from him before I drunk my sorrows away tonight? Well, why not? It wasn't like he was going to be able to change my mind.

“Yeah?” I asked, walking back out of the room, towards the bar.

“Hey, what's going on? Where are you?” he asked.

About to indulge in the unhealthy coping method that had been keeping me afloat for the last decade of my life. “Where am I? Where are you?” I asked.

“We’re in London.”

“I thought you guys were going on a tour.”

“Brenna wanted one more day in the city. That's why I'm calling. Are you around? Let's get dinner.”

Dinner? That sounded good. Technically the only meal I had had was breakfast this morning with Eddy. I wasn't necessarily hungry but the other activity I had in mind was sitting around in here and drinking alone.
