On Saturday morning when I woke up, I was alone in my bed. I sighed and stared at the ceiling, thinking that my drive home the previous night and Lorcan following me was just something I dreamt about. As I turned over onto my side, my eyes widened. A black tee shirt was lying on the floor and it wasn’t mine.

Before I managed to get up, the door opened and Lorcan came into the room carrying a tray. “Good morning,” he said smiling, putting the tray on the table. I was unable to speak. Only a few moments before I thought I had dreamt it all and now he was standing in front of me in his jeans, bare-chested.

“Mmmm … morning,” I murmured in response.

“Are you hungry?” he knelt beside the bed, leaned and kissed me before I managed to answer him. It was all I needed. Feeling his lips on mine and his hands on my body was enough to feel hungry.

Our lovemaking extended into the morning. The croissants and coffee he brought for breakfast went cold but neither of us cared much.

After we finally managed to get out of my bedroom and shower, which we shared, we spent the rest of the day sitting on the terrace or walking along the beach. It was a sunny day and I felt almost free and careless.

“What’s wrong?” Lorcan asked me during the day several times; it was during these moments that I remembered Iain.

We were sitting on the swing on the terrace when he asked me the same question again. It was late in the evening and I found myself opening my mouth ready to tell him.

“What is it?” he asked again. I shook my head and said simply:

“Let’s go to bed.” Without a word he followed me into the house.

Sunday passed by so quickly that I thought I was living a dream. On Sunday evening Lorcan left. He didn’t want to, but persistent phone calls from the team members and, in the end from Crest himself, forced him to leave.

The farewell was long. He just couldn’t get enough of me and to be honest … the feeling was mutual. A bad feeling that this was just too good to be true and that it would not last possessed me. I didn’t want to tell him that. I knew he would just laugh at me, trying to chase away my fears with kisses. For the time being he succeeded.

Just before he left, he turned around and spoke softly to me, running his fingers through my hair as he did so.

“We were together for two days, but I don’t know anything more about you than I did before. You managed to get me talking about myself and that was not my intention…” I knew where this conversation was going.

“You have to go,” I said. “You have a long journey ahead of you. Don’t keep them waiting more than you already have.”

“I love you!” he shouted as he got into his car, and the next minute he was gone.
