I knew how bad I had been waiting.‘I just—I cant’ she said throwing her hands over her face.‘Listen..I’m not going to force you to do anythi...g you don’t want to’ I said trying to calm her. I stared at her ‘what do you want?’ I asked eying her carefully.She looked down at me then and stated ‘you’ simply.I smiled lightly ‘Take me then’She looked almost in shock about my willingness to just give myself to her. Why was she so careful of me? I was the one who had to be careful. The girl had. "I have always thought that you had got yourself sorted, by that I mean at peace with yourself. Now I know why, living here you can't help but feel at peace." Yes it does that for you." Play some music, Jack. Anything but Rock. Rock would somehow be out of place here."

I snorted, ‘I haven’t seen you face-to-face in 4 years and you’re going to just fix my collar?’ ‘Well,’ she pouted her lower lip, ‘What else would you like me to do for you?’ ‘Ha, ha,’ I scoffed, ‘You were the one who called me out tonight, right?’ ‘If that’s the way you remember it,’ she snickered. I smiled at her.
