The next few weeks passed in a blur of passion and laughter.

They had spent every spare moment together. Rachel was hesitant at first, both because of her professional concerns, but also because she was scared – scared of her quickly growing attachment to the man, and of the depth of her feelings for him.

How could anyone become so important so fast? Is this what love starts out as?

He had taken her to a cabin that sat on the banks of a gurgling river just outside of the small town of Flat’s Creek. He told her about having a horrible fight with his father when he was eighteen and just jumping into his car and driving away, almost desperate to get as far from his family as he could. He wasn’t sure he’d ever come back.

But then his car had broken down a few miles away from the town. The walk into town had been scorching, and when he heard the sound of a river nearby, he left the paved road and made his way into the woods to try to find some relief from his thirst.

He’d stumbled upon the quaint cabin shortly after. It had been empty, and he’d sat on the porch overlooking the stream for hours. For some reason, the cabin soothed him, brought peace when he was feeling anything but calm.

As soon as he’d made enough money, he bought the cabin.

No one else knew about it, and no one else had ever been there with him. The poignancy of the place drew Rachel too, there was some quality about it that almost seemed healing. He told her that when his father became unbearably difficult, he’d go there, just to get grounded again.

They visited museums and sat for hours on the window seat inside Rachel’s favorite library. There, they’d laugh and talk about everything from the classics, to Calvin & Hobbes comics.

Flashes of her promise to her brother on that long ago day would come to her out of the blue every now and then. She had become so used to protecting her heart and her sense of independence, that it was hard for her to let Damien inside. She still hadn’t told him who her father was, but he knew so much more about her than anyone else she’d ever known since moving away from her childhood home.

Damien was starting to take those protective walls down – slowly at first, but faster with every day that passed.

She just felt safe with him. She couldn’t really explain it. He always put her needs first, and he was so damned protective of her too.

It had been a long time, maybe forever, since she’d felt so cherished.
