Chapter 17

Him

I stir and stretch out my arms. But I don’t feel what, or rather who, I’m expecting to. Instead, there’s just a space. Hopeful, I reach out a little further. Still it's the same, nothing. I open my eyes and see she's gone. Sitting up, I can’t hear her anywhere. I lean and cast an eye over the side of the bed; I can’t see her clothes anywhere; she must have gone. Laying my head back down, I look at the empty pillow next to me where her face would have been. I should be sweeping her full brown fringe aside to stare into those wide, light-grey eyes right now.

I'm not sure how I should feel about this. I mean, it shouldn't bother me if she’s decided to leave. But for some reason it does. After everything that happened yesterday evening it would have been nice, or at least polite had she said goodbye. Perhaps she had to go to work and didn’t want to wake me. Talking of work, that's where I should be heading about now.

I jump out of bed and head into the bathroom to turn the shower on and soon the water’s raining down against the glass panel. I step inside and begin to wash my hair. As my fingertips massage into my scalp and the lava begins to build, I make a mental note of what I have to do today. I plan to run by my father’s office to see how things are ticking over in his absence.

But I’d feel better knowing everything’s okay. If I have the time, I’ll drop by his house as well to see how my mother and Penelope are settling in, and have a chat about her plans.

It isn't long before I'm thinking about Amy. The glass is steaming up and I can’t help but think what a shame it is she went home when she did. Still, I should get a move on if I’m going to get everything I want to do done today. Switching off the shower, I shake the excess water from my hair and reach out to grab a towel for around my waist. As I walk over to the sink, I look in the mirror above and rub my hand across the skin of my face to inspect my stubble. Picking up my shaving foam, I give the can a shake and squirt a small amount into my hand to prepare my face for the once over. Lifting the razor to my skin, I wonder about Ashby. As I tilt my
