I wake right before my alarm goes off. I’m disoriented and wonder where I am and what day it is. I rush to turn on the lights, and everything falls back into place. I get to see Nick tonight. I open my link back up to Logan and can tell he is in a deep sleep. I’m so glad I figured this whole bond thing out.

I look in the mirror, brush my hair quickly, and reapply my lip gloss. I grab a blanket and rush out the door. I miss seeing him, and after his promises of finding a way for us to be together, I am even more eager to get there.

I reach the gardens and am disappointed because Nick isn’t there yet. I lay down the blanket and sit, waiting for him.

After a while, I get a little upset. Why isn’t he here? Does he just want to waste my time? I should just leave, but the problem is I can’t seem to make myself head back home.

After a little while longer, I convince myself to leave, even though my heart is still holding out hope. I fold up my blanket and then there are noises in the garden. Crap, I stayed out too late, and now a guard is going to catch me.

I get ready to run when Nick comes out of the bushes. “I am so sorry, Ari. My father is going crazy with the Orlons’ visit. We have been holed up in a strategy meeting since dinner. I got out as quickly as I could.” He wraps his arms around me.

I’m pathetic for just forgiving him but find myself molding right to him. I am so relieved that it was his dad keeping him. “No problem. I was just worried about you and thought maybe you changed your mind about us.”

“This is for real.” He pulls back to look into my eyes. “You’re it for me. Nothing will change that.”

He kisses me on my lips, and I forget all about him being late and any other worries that were on my mind.
