Chapter 9

“Hard times always lead to something great.”

-Betsey Johnson

My head felt like it was going to explode. I chatted some more with Stephanie, and she screwed my head on a little more, but I was still so lost. I knew that I wanted to keep my family, but I just don’t know if it was there anymore. I loved Brian so much, but sometimes you can love someone who doesn’t want to be held onto. It’s true. He may profess his love to me now, but where was he at the bar? Why were we on the trip in the first place? I used to think that everything would be fine because it always turned out just fine time after time. But, did I really want to live my life feeling just fine? Then that stupid freaking text message he wouldn’t tell me about. My mind just thought bad things from that all over again. Was he talking to her again?

Brian slept on the couch last night. I slept upstairs, but I’m pretty sure I didn’t really sleep. The conversation we’d just had before bed kept me awake. It tore me apart and ripped me to pieces, and I’m the one who made the decision. My heart ached for clarity. Brian was off to work early this morning. Honestly, I don’t even know how he made it off the couch with how drunk he was last night, but he did. I had packing to do, but I had my meet and greet with Dean. Dean, oh Dean. I wondered how this was going to go. It’s been a long damn time since we’ve sat down and talked. It’ll be interesting. I headed off, wearing a pair of jeans and a cute grey sweater to make my blonde hair pop with my ice blue eyes. I put on make-up, but softly, not overdone.

I got in my Malibu and headed to Coffee Castle. The sky was bright today, not a cloud in view. It was a nice fall afternoon. I tried looking into the sky, hoping it would clear my head, but no such luck. It was a busy day. I parked the car in front of Coffee Castle and let out a deep breath. Once I got out of the car, I picked up my stride and walked in confidently–shoulders up, posture straight. I saw Dean sitting at the table off in the corner. I silently pumped myself up, you can do this. I let out my deep breath I thought I was holding, but realized it was just my ragged breathing. The strong smell of coffee was just what I needed this afternoon. He waved his hand, calling my attention to his beautiful face. It was freshly shaven, his wide chiseled jaw was quite perfect, and his blonde hair was cut short, military style, just how I remembered him. Flawless. I walked up quickly to the table, and he got up, opening his muscular arms.

Without thinking, I walked into them and rested my head on his broad shoulder.
