I rub my temples, then crack my neck after releasing a long sigh. I tried yoga, but it didn’t work. The slight headache that formed when I saw Everest and Tucker coming down the stairs with her bags hasn’t eased after two days. I moved her luggage back upstairs the moment they left because I meant it when I said leaving wasn’t an option.

The things Rowe said makes perfect sense, but I don’t know why we’re here. My mind is mainly blank when it comes to Moonlight. From the moment we’ve met, my preference has been Everest. I’m sure I’ve done everything to show her that. How did we get here?

Whit and Moonlight are on a mini couple’s getaway. He thought it was best with the current climate in the house. It’s been tense, to say the least. Summer is ending for the kids and Rowe has finally relaxed enough to be going for days without thinking I’ll disappear again. Now, the two people who have the most reasons to stay here are in the middle of a standoff. Both of us are mad for different reasons.

She’s jealous, like she said before. She should talk to me about it, not freeze me out. When I was upset, she knew exactly what was wrong with me. I don’t have that luxury. Doing things on her own is a default setting that she’ll need to adjust for us to work.

I confirmed with Whit, relationships are new for me. I know she’s more important to me than any woman has ever been, but I know the blank parts of me isn’t helping our relationship any more than her desire to shut me out.

Sighing for what feels like the eightieth time, I pull out my phone. If the current state of our relationship is my fault, then I’ll reach out.

Me: Ready to talk?

I can see that she’s read my text, still there isn’t a response. My headache causes me to close my eyes. Laying back, I decide to rest and give her a moment to respond. I must have fallen asleep because the sun isn’t as high when I open my eyes again.

My phone is free of notifications. I push my feet over the side. My body is still tight with tension. This isn’t my default way to deal with an issue, and it feels like my body is rebelling against my method.

In an attempt to give her time, I decide to take a long shower. My shoulders feel heavy under the warm spray. The heat loosens some of the tension as I roll my shoulders to get rid of the rest.

Is this love? The question gnaws at me as I bathe. The guy I’ve been after waking up believes he’s falling, but a bigger part of me who has yet to reveal himself cannot answer that question. This is higher than the frustration I feel when I can’t remember something random. Is multiplied because I can’t remember the entire person, Walton Cambridge. What in the fuck would the other me do?

“Just clue me in.
