Chapter Twenty-One

Cara had only herself to blame for the situation she found herself in. Sleeping with Erin was not meant to happen. Neither was falling in love with her all over again. What was it with her letting her emotions get the better of her? I do not need Erin. I do not need sex. I do not need a relationship and all the bloody stress that goes with it! She reminded herself repeatedly as she strolled along the hotel corridor. It was sod’s law that they had run out of milk in their room. She couldn’t think straight without her morning fix of caffeine.

Cara could barely believe it. They were grown women bickering about a problem that should not even have existed – in Cara’s mind anyway. She wasn’t tied down to anyone – especially Matt. She was a free agent who could date whoever the hell she wanted and she resented Erin trying to tell her otherwise. If Erin wanted to put her life on hold because of some unwritten oath she had with her brother so be it. But if Cara had it her way they would just go back to Cumbria and lay it all out on the table. She was fed up with being a push over. Hadn’t Maddie’s actions shown her what life was all about – do what you want in life and fuck everybody else. Where did being kind and thoughtful get you anyway? Nowhere. Look at how things had panned out for her. Cara hadn’t been in the wrong but she was the one who had ended up having to leave her home and life in London, just because her ‘partner’ wanted a shag.

Finally reaching the receptionist, Cara could all but scowl when she asked for the milk. She was at boiling point ready to erupt. When Cara got back to their room, Erin was dressed and sitting perched on the edge of the chair. The bed covers were still rumpled from the night before and Cara’s stomach flinched when a memory of their bodies entwined came to mind. Brushing it off she crossed the room to the kettle and flicked it on.

‘Do you mind if I have a coffee before we run back to Cumbria like two naughty kids.’ She could hear the bitterness in her voice but didn’t care.

‘Cara.’

Cara emptied the coffee sachet into the mug. ‘Oh just save it for someone who cares, Erin. It really is getting tedious going over the same shit again and again.’

‘I thought you understood.’

Cara spun around. ‘Do you know what? That’s my exact problem. You’ve hit the nail on the head. I understand too much which seems to make people think I’m a soft touch – weak!’ Cara shook her head slowly. ‘But I’m not, Erin. There’s only so far I’ll be pushed and I think I’ve finally reached my limit with you.’

‘So what would you want me to do?’

Frustration fuelled Cara’s anger. ‘How about grow a fucking backbone and stop tiptoeing around your brother like he’s some kind of God.
