EIGHTEEN

Spencer helped James load the car while Jo helped Beth finish some last minute tidying in the cottage. Peter had already taken Luke and Tobias to catch the train to London, for the start of the semester, and was returning to collect them. James planned to return to the farm and leave with Spencer tomorrow morning. A plan Jo was more than happy about.

On the drive home, James sat in front and Jo curled up in the back, reading. She hid behind the open book, unable to contain her smile as she thought about James. Her life had changed so much over the past few days.

Her body buzzed, remembering all the stolen moments they’d had. Of course they’d been discreet, Beth and Tobias the only ones privy to their secret. Seeing as Tobias had walked in on them when they were kissing, James didn’t have much choice. He felt he needed to explain. Apparently, Tobias had been a bit stunned at first, but when he realised James was serious and didn’t intend stringing Jo along with another girl on the sidelines, he’d been alright with it.

Until recently she’d never even considered a boyfriend. It seemed so unreal, but she was happier than she’d ever been. James promised to speak to Spencer when they got back to the farm. Jo didn’t really care, but understood why James wanted to wait. Spencer had never had to play the big over protective brother before, so she expected him to flip out when James told him.

The cars travelled together and arrived at the farm about four in the afternoon. Spencer took Beth straight home and Peter was equally eager to see Sarah, so it was left to James and Jo to bring in the luggage.

James threw the last bag onto the pile in the family room and turned to Jo. “That’s everything. What now?”

Jo twisted her lips, to stop from grinning. “Hmmm. ... I don’t know James. What would you like to do?”

He leant his head back and focussed on the closed door of the study, where Sarah and Peter were catching up. Turning back quickly, he rushed over and grabbed her around the waist and pulled her onto the sofa. They fell into the cushions and he kissed her again. Jo’s head spun, enjoying the warmth of being back in his arms after the four hour trip. A door clicked open and they both sat up hurriedly, exchanging guilty glances. James raised a cheeky eyebrow; smoothed down his jumper and flattened his hair. Stifling a giggle, Jo quickly shuffled to the opposite end of the sofa leaving an overly large space between them.

Sarah appeared and smiled. “Hello, you two. How was the trip?”

“We had the best time,” Jo squeaked enthusiastically.

As Sarah bent to pick up the newspaper from the coffee table, James turned to Jo and mouthed, subtle. Jo grinned and shrugged.

Sarah moved toward her and leaned down to kiss the top of Jo’s head. “I’m glad to hear it. You do look rather well.
