Chapter Twelve

Amy

A knock sounds on the door. Throwing myself off the bed, I rush to open it, thinking it might be Xander coming back to say we’ll always be friends. But it’s not him, it’s the man I want to see much more.

“I saw him leave, about half an hour ago. Gave you some time, but not giving you anymore. Any tears you cry, you cry them with me.” He uses his thumb to wipe one such tear from my eye.

“I think I hurt him,” I say, biting my lip. “He was so good, Drew. He didn’t blame me, he gave me his blessing and good wishes.”

Drew tilts his head slightly. “His job’s done now, Amy. It’s now mine to protect you and keep you safe.”

“He doesn’t even want to stay friends with me.”

Drew’s sigh sounds like it’s one of relief. But there’s also understanding in his eyes as he comes closer. “He was there for you in your worst time, saved you from the worst experience of your life. He saw you at your lowest point, and, of everyone, has direct knowledge of what Flint did, and the impact on someone like yourself. Of course you’re going to miss him. But he was right to make a clean break.” He pauses and rubs the side of his nose. “His being with you served as a reminder. Perhaps, now he’s gone, you can move on.”

I look down at my hands, wondering whether he’s right. I could never forget that night with Xander there to remind me. It’s true, sometimes I look at him and remember the fury in his eyes when he’d seen how Flint had taken advantage of me.

“Babe, it’s time we made an appearance at the clubhouse.”

I glance up fast, it’s the first time he’s called me something other than Amy or sweetheart which he’d used when we were younger. Now he’s holding out his hand.

“Uh uh.” I shake my head. “You go down first, and I’ll follow in a few minutes.”

His brow creases, and his hand goes to his temple. “What’s up Amy? Why do you need more time to yourself? I think you need your family around you.”

He’s misunderstood. “Drew, if we walk in together, what will people think? We agreed we’d give it a month before making a commitment. Everyone will get the wrong idea. I don’t want to make it difficult for you.”

“You think I give a fuck?” he rasps. “You and I are together, and I’ve no fuckin’ doubt we’ll stay that way. If it doesn’t work out, well, I won’t be the first man jilted.”

“You jilt people at the altar,” I say with a small laugh.

“Oh, I’ll get you to the altar sooner or later.” Drew sounds solemn. “You’ll be my ol’ lady and my wife.” His tone lightens as he adds, “Going to tie you to me in every fuckin’ way that I can.”

I cover my mouth with my hand, then manage to get out, “Is that a proposal?”

“Nah,” he sounds serious again.
