Later, we talk and talk, and talk and talk. Over take-out pizza in his study, and afterwards in bed again, our minds catch up with our bodies, filling in the gaps from all the years. By the time Nick puts in an appearance to bid farewell to all the stragglers from the reunion, and we’ve fucked again, rested and fucked yet again, there isn’t much about the ten years since I left school that we haven’t covered.

“So?” he asks, settling back and pulling me against him.“So?” I echo, snuggling against him.

I’ve got a room at the Greybridge Hotel nearby, but I don’t want to go there. I don’t want to go anywhere Nicholas Laurence isn’t.

“I don’t want to leave,” I say, looking at him, at his dear face so beautiful, beautiful.

“I know…. And I don’t want you to.”

The word ever hangs in the air between us. I can’t believe it, but it’s true, I already know that.

“What are we going to do? I live in London and you live here.”

He laughs softly, his hand moving over my arm, slowly and possessively. “It’s going to be a bit of a logistical problem, Annie, isn’t it?” He kisses my hair, and the swift contact of his lips is sensual but also calm, wise and thoughtful. A little bud of hope starts to blossom. “But we’re both clever, grown-up people. We’ll work something out, between us, somehow.”

And as I touch his chest, and feel the beat of his heart so steady, so deep and true, I believe this. I believe him, even though I don’t yet know how we’re going to manage it.

But anything’s possible when a love is no longer forbidden.
