Hours later, I was sitting in my room painting my nails. Cole and Cooper were on a daddy and son day. I thought I would have liked to have the day to myself, but I felt myself bored and lonely. I spent a good part of the morning listening to the Hastings brothers argue with Paige about what food she can have and everything else she should or shouldn’t be doing. She said that she wasn’t Tara, and that there was some stuff that she wasn’t going to let fly.

After Cole had taken off, I decided to head upstairs. I cleaned my room but it wasn’t very dirty because I haven’t been spending much time in there. I’m almost always at Cole’s except when I sleep. It was something I didn’t want to do until we had finally slept together again, although I don’t remember why I am making us wait anymore. I can tell that Cole is trying his hardest to respect my “let’s go slow” request but, honestly, I don’t want to go slow anymore. I can see how well we work together in and out of the bedroom and it’s more than I could ever hope for.

I was seeing that there was much more to Cole than jokes and being a player. He had it hidden very well.

I moved on from cleaning to doing my hair and makeup in full curls and smoky eyes. I honestly tried to take my time with my makeup. I guess I do it so much that it had just become natural to me.

Paige and Claire both take a spot to stand beside me.

I couldn’t help but let out a laugh. They all looked so serious like they were about to run an intervention on me, but I have no idea what for.

“What’s going on?” I say once my laughter has subsided.

“Well, you have been avoiding me for months now and it’s time that you stopped. You promised you would talk to me when you had gotten back from your time away and you never have. Now’s that time,” Paige says seriously. I honestly felt guilty for avoiding her, but it was hard enough for me to tell Cole, let alone my best friend.

I nod my head.

All three of them sit on the bed and wait for me to talk.

I sort out the thoughts in my head before I speak. I didn’t want to repeat myself.

I blow out a breath. “Okay, well I was keeping my distance from Cole because I thought he deserved better than me.” I hold my hand up to them when Paige and Tara try to speak. “Just let me get this out.” When they both nod their heads, I continue.

“I can’t have kids. I found out just before I moved back. I know I didn’t deal with
