I groan as the light from the crack in the curtain tries to penetrate my eyelids. I roll over as a dull, aching, thud fills my head. I lie motionless for a second as I try to remember what day it is. As I try to get my brain to function, the events of the afternoon before flash through my head, I smile as I think about how much I enjoyed myself. I had never really put much thought into wanting my own children but being with Thomas and Elliott made me realize I was probably missing something great.

I can’t believe how Hannah’s ex just walked out on her and the boys. He must have been mad to walk away from his perfect family.

I wriggle about as the urge to piss becomes too much; I know I need to leave my warm covers but not wanting to face the day. Eventually I give up trying to hold it in anymore, I jump from my bed and walk naked across to the bathroom.

As I finished, I didn’t expect to hear raised voices coming from the front entrance, so I walked to my door and opened it slightly to hear Gaynor’s voice.

“Shhh will you. You are going to wake David up.”

“Well don’t be so stupid then,” I hear her mother reply.

“It’s not your decision. I don’t love him, and he certainly doesn’t love me. I married him for Dad, and Dad only.” I hear her hiss. “I’ve done a lot of thinking while being trapped in this thing and I want someone who loves me, and who wants to be with me.”

“And you think Luke will want you now? After all this time,” her mom sighs heavily.

What? Luke... I haven’t heard from Luke since just after the accident, four years earlier. Though now that I think of it, how can someone who was around all the time, just disappear overnight.

Luke was a good friend. I wasn’t as involved with Luke as I was with Shawn but when we were in college, he was always everywhere we were, and we continued our friendship a long time after.

We spent so much time together, and I always considered him a close friend. He even tried to talk me out of marrying Gaynor, saying that I deserved more than a make shift marriage, that she was a money digging whore. I told him I knew what I was doing and that I had hoped that we would grow to love each other over time.

I try to calm my rolling thoughts as I try to listen to the rest of the conversation.

“We’ve kept in touch; he blames himself for what happened.”

Why would Luke blame himself?

“Gaynor, you need to stop living in the clouds. You need to stay with David.” I hear the anger in her mum’s voice as Gaynor slams the door.

I stagger back to the bed and drop my head into my hands. I missed some of the conversation between my racing thoughts and the shock
