CHAPTER FOUR
Dawn
Andi walked out of the room. What started out as a fantastic day had really gone to shit. How could I have spent so many years being friends with Tess and never realized she was so unstable.
I knew my time with Andi was coming to an end. A woman like her avoids drama, and this was drama to the nth degree. I figured I would never hear from her again once she went back to Atlanta, and who could blame her. I was preparing myself for the heartbreak I knew was coming, because I had fallen in love with this amazing woman who deserved so much better than this shit-show my life had suddenly turned into.
Andi reappeared in the living room with a smile on her face and a box with a ribbon tied around it in her hand. "I got you somethin’ today while I was out," she said, "I was gonna wait until after dinner tonight to give this to you, but I don't believe either of us is in the mood for a night out." She sat down beside me and handed me the box. "Go ahead," she said, "open it."
I slowly untied the ribbon and opened the box. It was beautiful. It was a gold and platinum bracelet with two long rows of diamonds. "Honey, it's beautiful," I said. I was torn. I was unsure accepting such an expensive gift was the right thing to do. I needed more information. "Why?" I asked.
I could tell she was debating what to say. She finally spoke, "I honestly had no intention of tellin’ you this yet, because I realize how stereotypical lesbian this is. And I truly hope this doesn’t scare you off, but it’s been a ridiculous day, and I need you to know."
She was rambling, and I’m sure I looked confused. I finally asked, "Needed me to know what?"
She appeared to take a deep breath to steady herself. "You are amazin’, and wonderful. I love every second I get to spend with you. You deserve the world, Dawn, and," she paused before continuing, "I'm fallin’ in love with you."
I was shocked. This woman, who I knew I was in love with, had just confessed she was falling in love with me, too. I’m sure I looked flabbergasted, and that is certainly how I felt. Before I had a chance to respond, she was attempting to apologize. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said anythin’. I didn't mean for you to be uncomfort-"
I put my hand over her mouth to stop her from talking. Nervous and flustered Andi was adorable, and I was enjoying it, but I didn't want her to think she had made a mistake. "Baby, stop talking," I said. She closed her mouth and I removed my hand. "I have some things to say, and I need you to listen." She nodded but didn't speak. "You asked me what was different this time, and I told you I really wanted this. Meaning I wanted there to be an us, but that's only part of it," I said.
