Chapter Thirty-four

Was she relieved that she wasn't pregnant, or was she disappointed? The thought hung thick on my chest.

I reached out and took her hand, giving it a gentle squeeze.

"Hey, are you okay?" I asked, trying to sound casual.

She turned to me with a small smile. "Yeah, I'm fine. Just a bit tired, I guess."

I nodded, feeling a bit frustrated. I wanted to know what was really going on in her head, but I didn't want to push her too hard.

When we got home, Kacie went straight to bed, saying she needed to rest. I watched her go.

I followed her to our bedroom and stared on as she tucked herself under the bed without as much as bidding me goodnight.

Now that's weird. Since after we continued our relationship, Kacie will never go to bed without whispering sweet nothing into my ears and vice versa.

I brushed whatever thoughts creeping into my mind and slip into the bathroom to take a cold shower.

As early the next morning I slipped out from bed and dressed up to meet Josh, I couldn't wait for sunset.
