Chapter 11

The rest of the week was pretty uneventful. We decided that Easter would be spent at the Nakamura home, and while I loved Mila’s family, I was still a bit apprehensive about spending the day with her. We hadn’t had a chance to have a substantive talk since the last time we engaged in our shouting match, but Jason assured me that everything would be just fine. Ryan being there would certainly ease the tension, but I wanted to make sure we had a nice holiday for everyone involved.

Chelsea was beyond pissed that we hadn’t chosen to spend the holiday with her and her family, pointing out that we were already right there in La Jolla; she swore that Jason was behind this, and while in a sense he was, I didn’t want to confirm it. I made sure to point out that I wanted to be where Ryan would be, which was true, and left it at that.

Chelsea was also angry that we had declined on the concert that was mentioned to me by Chase. I didn’t need another run in with those two, and honestly, wasn’t up for the crowds. She and Hunter went and said they had an amazing time, but I just wasn’t in the mood.

Easter Sunday came quickly, and after speaking briefly with my parents, Jason and I headed out to church. The church was packed to capacity, and I was reminded that while I was in no way a strict Christian, the once a year churchgoers were out in full force. Jason and I sat in the fifth row, listening intently to Pastor Mark give the Resurrection Day sermon. The songs that preceded his remarks had a few tears straggling down my face. My parents had always tried to raise us according the scripture, and I couldn’t help but feel like I had fallen off the wagon. I knew I was happy with Jason, but I periodically wondered if I was supposed to be with him. We had gone through so much in such a short amount of time; any normal functioning human being would have had questions. Jason noticed my tears, wiped them gently, and kisses my hand. The rest of the service was filled with laughter, nods, tears, and appreciative applause from the congregation. Looking around, Ryan was nowhere to be seen, so I assumed that he went to church with Mila and her family.

After church we were cornered by all of my parents’ friends who made small talk by inquiring about their vacation. I made sure to introduce Jason to all of them, to include Pastor Mark and his wife. Jason was comfortable speaking to anyone, and instantly charmed everyone who met him.

On our way back to Jason’s house he kept his right hand on my thigh the entire way. The Shelby was the ride of choice, since it was such a beautiful day in San Diego. Riding along the coast with the top down, my hair blew freely in the wind.
