Cooper tells the Uber driver to wait while he helps me haul my suitcases out of the trunk. I try not to show how devastated I feel being back in Vancouver already. He already feels responsible enough for this, regardless of how many times I tell him itâs not his fault.
Returning home after being away always feels good. Like youâre back where you belong. But this time, home is the last place I want to be. And as Cooper shrugs my carry-on over his shoulder and looks to me with a similar sad look in his eyes, I canât help but think that he feels the same way as me.
âIâll come up with you and make sure youâre safe before I leave,â he says, gently urging me up the sidewalk.
âYou donât have to. I doubt anyone broke in and hung around while I was gone.â
And having you inside my apartment will only make it harder to say goodbye.
âJust humour me.â
I nod, and we walk inside the building. Sammy, the bodybuilder-looking security guard, gives me a smile as we pass him, and I muster up a weak one in return.
âSee, Sammy wouldnât let anything happen to me. Heâs got my back.â I try to sound teasing but fail miserably.
âIâm not letting my wife walk into her apartment alone after itâs been empty for two weeks. Just let me do this.â
Just like every single time he calls me his wife, I fight off shivers. It shouldnât sound so good, but hearing it come from Cooperâs mouth is enough to send me into a horny spiral.
Itâs become abundantly clear to me that Iâve caught the Cooper bug. Iâm not surprised. Actually, I am, but not at the fact Iâve grown feelings for him, but because it took me two weeks to realize it.
Heâs not who I would go for had the circumstances been different. And I think thatâs why Iâve grown to care about him so deeply. Heâs not like the other guys Iâve dated, and thatâs what makes him so special. Nobody has ever made me feel as important and listened to and cared for as he has. We can talk about anything, and I know he wonât judge me. God, I didnât see this one coming. Talk about a forbidden crush.
âFine. But only because youâre so damn handsome.â
From the corner of my eye, I see him blush, and that alone is enough to lighten my mood. Even just a little bit.
We take the elevator up to my floor and then walk inside the apartment. It smells like cleaning products and vanilla. Ivyâs things are gone.
I dread being left alone.
âItâs a nice place,â Cooper notes, shutting the door behind us. âI expected more pink, to be honest.â
I slip off my shoes and walk further inside. The apartment is nice. Itâs one big open floor plan with tall windows and grey wood floors. Modern, but not too modern. Two bedrooms and one bathroom.
âIvy wasnât a big pink girl. I toned it down a little.
