“You didn’t do anything wrong, Amanda. It was me. I happened to think I knew what was best for both of us, and I was wrong. I’m sorry.”

“I wish I could be the kind of woman you wanted.”

“No. Don’t do that.” He did face her then, even managed to smile. “You’re perfect just the way you are. Don’t change because of me.”

“Well, I wish things could have been different. Maybe in time…”

Josh told himself he’d let this go on too long. That he should just end it, right here. But the timing was lousy. They had business to take care of. And he didn’t need to be throwing her any more curves right now. He couldn’t afford to put up any barriers between them, because she needed him, and he was going to take care of her. At least in this. The personal stuff was just going to have to wait.

“Something’s happened,” he said. “Something I need to tell you. Rudy called. There’s been a slight change in plans.”

“What do you mean?”

“He says he has to go back to France sooner than he expected. So he can’t make dinner Saturday night.”

“Oh.” She looked so relieved. “So, it’s over? We’re done.”

“No.” Josh frowned. “We’re still going. Tonight.”

“Tonight? Why?”

Josh nodded. “It’s probably just Rudy enjoying the idea of throwing us off balance. I told you, he likes games.”

“But…” She reached for him, taking his hands tightly enough to cut off his circulation. “Tonight?”

“It’s probably better this way, Amanda. We’ll get it over with. There’s less time for you to be nervous this way.”

“I’m not ready,” she protested.

“You’re never going to be ready. But you can do it. I know you can.”
