Chapter 12

Hope

I wanted to be mad at him, and I was, somewhat. I couldn't believe that Nicholas had said we would go to the concert. That he had all but coerced me into going with him. He should have said he had to work. I had given him and by default me, the perfect out to not go to the concert. I could tell he knew what I was doing, what I was getting at when I said he had to work, but he hadn't seemed to care. He had done everything he could to make sure that we got the tickets to the concert and now I had to go with him. I thought about telling him we wouldn't go. Even saying that I wasn't feeling well, or some other excuse, but I couldn't do it. If nothing else I knew that Tracy would be on me for not going and I didn't want to get on her bad side, not that I was completely sure she even had one. Though that didn't mean that I wasn't going to try and find a way to get out of it with him.

Tracy was being so nice by giving us the tickets and I knew it was her way of trying to play matchmaker. Normally, I would be all for it. I would have no objection to my boss and a woman who was trying to be my friend, helping me to sleep with a very hot, very sweet, very smart firefighter. But these were not normal circumstances, nor were my feelings for Nicholas. I didn't want to, but I liked being around him. I liked hearing him talk, I liked talking to him, I liked being able to look at him. I liked how he looked at me and I really liked how it felt to be in his arms or to hold his hand.

The more I was around him, the harder it was to fight my attraction to him. I kept telling myself that it was never going to work out between us. That there would be no point in going down a road with him that would only lead to heartache. But it wasn't easy to believe that when I was with him. He made me feel so good. I laughed more with him than I had in years. I felt freer about myself and who I was. I felt like I could tell him anything and he would listen and not judge me. He was so open and honest with me about what he was feeling and thinking. I felt there was a connection between us, that was deeper than I had ever had with anyone, and not just sexually, though that was off the charts. There was something about the way he would look at me, smile at me, that would make my legs go to jelly.

I had told him that we weren't going to happen. That the picnic was going to be the only time we went out.
