But eventually it was time to end the conversation and it became obvious that neither of them really wanted to be alone anymore.

So, they decided to take advantage of the situation to spend the remainder of the afternoon together, doing things that they used to do whenever they went on these trips together.

They walked aimlessly, trying to find some interesting sight that they could admire, but they ended up simply standing under the trees, watching the scenery pass by.

They didn’t talk. All they did was stare at the view before them, taking in the beauty that surrounded them.

It wasn’t until they realized that it was evening that they headed back home, carrying their backpacks. It was already dark when they got there.

The next day, Saturday, they woke up early and took a stroll in the nearby park. They decided to take another trip to the mall.

As soon as they entered the store, Sophie looked around, checking out everything they had left in stock.

    “That sounds amazing. Yes, I would love to do that.”He nodded slightly, turning over so that he was facing Sophie, putting his arm behind his head, resting it there while he continued gazing at her. Sophie felt herself getting nervous when she saw that he was looking at her like that. She couldn’t look away. She tried to hold his gaze, but after a short while she found herself closing her eyes and closing her mouth, feeling embarrassed. She felt his fingers brushing through her hair.“Will you kiss me?” he whispered.Her eyes flew open immediately and stared at him, her heart racing faster than ever. Her cheeks started blushing, but she didn’t move. She knew that he was talking about something other than kissing him. He must have noticed her hesitation because he added.“You don’t have to if you don’t want to. It’s totally okay if you don’t. You don’t have to.”She remained silent for a moment, not knowing what to do, before replying.“Okay.”She sat up, leaning toward him, pressi

    Before Sophie could protest anymore, Max suddenly took her hand, starting to run toward the harbor. Sophie stumbled, falling down in front of Max, but instead of letting go of her hand, he simply held it tightly. He dragged her along the street with him.“Hey! What are you doing?!”“Don’t worry! Just keep running!”When she saw how serious he looked, Sophie decided to stop complaining and start running with him. They ran until they reached the docks, Max stopping in front of an old building and dragging Sophie inside. He pushed her inside the building, closing the door behind her.“Max, what is this place?”“Just look around for a while and try to find your voice.”“Okay.”“Now go ahead.”Sophie walked through the room, looking around. Finally, after several minutes, she found the door and pushed it open, stepping outside. It was quiet, and Sophie felt like she was alone for the first time since she woke up. She walked slowly, her legs carrying her to wherever Max said she had to go

    “Everything looks so empty,” Sophie commented.“Yeah, it does kind of feel empty.”Sophie stood there, staring at the closet for a moment.“I think we should get rid of some of your stuff.”“What? Why?”“Because...it seems like a part of us has already moved on.”Max raised an eyebrow.“I’m serious. When I packed up everything, I was trying to make sure that it would always be there when I came back. But now it’s just here, waiting for me. And I think, we should get rid of that part of us too. I think you should move out of the apartment. And I think I should move in.”Max stared at her for a moment.“What?”“I’m not saying this to change your mind or anything. I’m just saying that this place is starting to remind me of where I first met you. I’ve missed you. So much. I feel like I hardly ever see you anymore. So, I thought I would get rid of your things to bring them here. So that way I would only have memories of you here and I would feel closer to you again.”He stared at her for a

    “I don’t care what anybody else thinks. Especially not yourself,” he said. “You’re going to go back to the hospital right away. We can talk to the doctor together and figure out what’s wrong. We’ll deal with it.”“Thank you,” Sophie whispered, wiping tears away from her cheeks. “I appreciate it. I’m sorry.”“Don’t apologize, sweetheart. It’s okay.”She could hear the worry in his voice, the fear that something might happen to her.“I’m not gonna disappear, Max. Trust me.”“I do trust you.”“Good. Now you should go get ready. We both have to be at the hospital in an hour.”Max smiled.“Alright. See you later then. Love you.”“Love you too. Talk soon.”Max hung up the phone. Then he went into the bedroom, throwing a couple of items into the wardrobe, which consisted mostly of his clothes, along with several different pairs of shoes. He grabbed a couple of jackets as well, stuffing those into the suitcase. After he finished packing, he opened the closet doors, looking for an empty suit

    Sophie blinked sleepily as she tried to focus her vision, rubbing her eyes slowly as she turned to look at him. He was leaning forward on the steering wheel, his arms crossed, his eyes closed and his head lolling backwards slightly. It seemed like he was barely asleep, although he did appear to be sleeping."What are you doing?" she whispered, furrowing her eyebrows. "Where are we?""Just stopping. I wanna eat something before we go home.""Alright... But what are we eating?""A burger," he replied, opening his eyes, looking at her with a small smirk."A burger? At midnight?""It's fine. It's not like we're gonna run out of money, are we?""No... Well, I guess not.""So what's the problem? Come on, we gotta get going.""Are you hungry?" she mumbled softly, turning and reaching towards the glove compartment."Not really, but you need to eat.""I'm not hungry...""Then I'll just go get the food. Don't move."She stayed silent as he reached across her body, opening the glove box and di

    "Sophie, what's wrong?" he asked."Nothing is wrong. Everything is fine," she mumbled."Come on. Just give it to me!""Fine, fine! It's just that, um... This isn't your typical kind of place. So, this is kinda embarrassing to say, but it's like you never actually went anywhere before," she explained awkwardly."Really? Like where?""Uh... Where you come from. It's just... A little different, is all."He raised an eyebrow. Why was she bringing it up? He hadn't exactly talked about his past very often, especially not while they were dating. He didn't really know how to. He didn't even talk about it to his family. He was pretty sure that they were aware of it, since they had known each other long enough for them to eventually find out anyway, but he doubted that they would say anything, as he was quite sure that they didn't approve of their relationship."Different?""Yeah. It's just... Different.""Is it really that hard to explain? Should I ask you to spell it out for me?""You should

    The last thing he wanted was to scare her more than she already was. There was only one person who he wanted to comfort her. He wanted her to be able to talk to him."We can keep going if you want," he offered, grabbing the menu off of the countertop again and flipping through its pages until he found the one he was looking for. "How does steak sound?" he asked, smiling softly at her, waiting patiently for her response."Sure."He flipped it open, showing her the pictures. He pointed at two steaks in particular. They both looked good to him, so he handed the menu back over to her before pushing himself out of the booth. She placed it beside her plate before following him outside. He walked over to the truck, unlocking it before turning around to walk back to her side, opening the door and sliding into the passenger's seat. After locking everything back up, he leaned forward and grabbed the handle, pulling the door all the way across to the driver's seat. He slid over to the middl

    "I'm glad you're here."He squeezed her hand gently as he spoke, making her smile softly to herself. She glanced down at their hands, then back up at his face, studying his features. His lips were twisted into a small frown, but he didn't look angry or upset. He looked thoughtful rather than angry. Not that she blamed him for feeling that way, though. She knew that being left there without saying a word really scared him. It probably had scared him even more when she didn't answer. And she didn't blame him for that, either. She understood completely. She understood why he was worried. But she hoped that he wouldn't worry any longer. She hoped that they could move past it."Me too," she told him honestly. "And you know what else?""What?""I love you."His frown disappeared as he lifted his head to glance at her. She smiled brightly at him. She was happy. She was happier than she had been in years. Things didn't feel as suffocating anymore. Everything felt lighter. Every single b

    “It will be alright, babe. Everything is going to be fine.” Sophie tried to breathe deeply, trying to regain her composure. She knew that nothing was going to be okay if her parents won’t visit the baby, but that wasn’t going to be happening anytime soon. “We’re going to raise this baby together. Your parents are coming to us. I won’t let them leave us behind.” Sophie laughed softly. “That sounds like something a supervillain would say.” Max laughed along with her, kissing Sophie’s forehead.They sat side by side on the edge of the pool. Max was playing with Sophie’s hair absentmindedly, stroking her hair through the wet strands. The water glistened underneath them, reflecting their faces. Sophie had her chin resting on Max’s shoulder. It was peaceful, just the two of them in the middle of nowhere, with nowhere to be except for this private place where they could hide from everyone and everything. Max’s house was huge, and there were so many rooms to explore, but Sophie and Max fo

    Sophie feels so happy with her husband Max, she kept kissing him so passionately in his office, that Max finally asked for a break and they made out on the couch until Sophie felt so breathless it was almost painful to stand up straight. They were still holding hands, Sophie could feel Max’s calloused fingers around hers, as he walked them towards their bedroom. He pressed against Sophie, making his way down slowly until they reached the bed where he pushed her onto the mattress. Sophie giggled as he crawled over her. She felt like she could burst with happiness every time he came home from work after long days at the hospital, when it had taken him hours to go home and rest. He told her that he always needed a few minutes before going home, to calm himself before facing her, because seeing her face was such a beautiful sight. He said that even though she looked tired, her eyes were sparkling like stars. Sophie knew that he didn’t lie to her. His green eyes sparkled as well, and

    “I love you, Sophie” he said huskily, staring deeply into her eyes. She smiled at him lovingly before she pressed her lips against his once more, pulling him even closer. She reached down and grabbed hold of the hem of his T-shirt, pulling it over his head quickly and tossing it to the floor. He stood up from the bed and pulled his boxers off. Once his pants and shoes were discarded to the ground, he crawled back up on top of her. He held himself above her, hovering over her body. He stared down at her, studying her features carefully. “Are you sure about this?” He mumbled, staring intently into her eyes. She smiled sweetly and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Yes. I want you so badly. I’ve waited too long. Let me show you exactly what I mean.” She whispered. “Show me.” He whispered back. She slipped one of her legs between his knees and placed both of her hands around his neck. With a swift movement, she yanked on his hair and rolled onto her back. “Oh yeah, Max!” She cried

    “Missed you too.” She replied. The next moment, she felt Max’s hands traveling slowly up her back. When he was touching her, goosebumps appeared on her arms. He noticed how tense she became and immediately stopped moving. He stared at her for a long time without saying a word. She raised her head and looked directly into his eyes. His expression told her everything. He was completely mesmerized by her, and he didn’t know how to react anymore. “Max, please…” Sophie breathed, breaking the silence. She needed him right now. “I’ll stop.” He mumbled. “No, Max. Please don’t stop, I need you.” She pleaded, looking at him with those big beautiful blue eyes. Her hands were gripping onto the sides of his face, pleading with him to not stop. His eyes softened and he took his hands off of her and moved them behind her neck. He pulled her closer and connected their lips together. As soon as their lips touched she felt her entire body shiver. It felt nice. Her arms slowly started circling h

    Max broke the kiss first, his breathing heavily. He kept his head close to hers, his eyes staring deep into hers. He caressed her cheeks with his hands and smiled. Her eyes were filled with tears. She was crying. He wiped away the tears that flowed from her eyes with his thumb. “Are you okay?” He asked worriedly. “Yea. I’m fine,” she replied softly, sniffling. “Just...just happy.” She said, letting out a quiet sob. He pulled her closer to him and wrapped his arms around her. “Me too, I’m just really happy that I can hold you in my arms again.” He whispered against her hair. She looked up at him and kissed his nose. She couldn’t help smiling. “You’re so adorable.” She whispered, nuzzling her nose against his. He smiled. He knew exactly why she was acting like that. She was nervous. She was scared that he might leave her if she confessed what she really felt. He understood perfectly well why she was acting that way. But that wasn’t something he was going to allow to happen. He

    Max shivered involuntarily and Sophie immediately put her arms around him. They stood like that for a minute or two, feeling each other’s warmth, enjoying the feeling of the other person beside them. Once they had calmed down, they went upstairs to get changed out of their damp clothes. After they had gotten dressed, they were seated on the couch in the living room watching TV. Sophie was resting her head against his shoulder and was looking at him expectantly. He had an idea and a grin crept across his face. He gently leaned forward and kissed her forehead. She blushed lightly. She looked up at him questioningly and raised an eyebrow. “What’s this for?” She asked curiously. Max smiled happily. “It’s nothing special. It’s just a thank you kiss. A very special thanks. Now go and get ready, we’re going to go somewhere very special tomorrow.” He said smiling happily. Sophie jumped to her feet. She hugged him tightly. “Yes! Thank you!” She whispered excitedly. He chuckled and held he

    “Do you wanna talk about what’s bothering you? We don’t need to talk if you don’t want us to.” He spoke softly, hoping that she wouldn’t hate him for asking. Sophie’s shoulders dropped a bit. “No, we should probably talk. It will make everything easier for both of us if we talk it out.” She replied quietly. Max nodded. As soon as he parked the car in their parking lot, he turned off the ignition. Sophie looked confused as well as nervous. She opened her door slowly. Max grabbed her hand before she closed it. She looked back at him with a questioning gaze. “Are you sure? You don’t have to do this if you’re uncomfortable.” He assured her. Sophie looked thoughtful for a minute. “I just wish my mom wouldn’t make a big deal out of everything. She’s never liked me dating guys.” She confessed. “My father and my sister always support me and they’ve been great about my dating life, but they always treat me different when I bring boys home. Mom always says that I’m not good enough for any

    Max kept staring at Sophie, the most beautiful girl he ever seen, she always looks so perfect for him and he always want to kiss her. She was smiling in his direction, which made his heart flutter inside his ribcage. She was the first one to notice his stare. “Hey, don’t look like you just saw a ghost. You’re making me nervous!” She laughed. Her laugh is beautiful too but Max didn’t mind it that much because her laugh was always contagious, even though he knows she probably wasn't talking about laughing at him. He smiled back at her, trying not to blush. “Sorry. I’m just admiring how gorgeous you are today. And your smile is so bright! I can already tell you will make many handsome suitors when you graduate this university in the next five years!” He said with a cheesy grin plastered on his face as if he would actually have any chance of winning her hand. He’s been crushing on her since their first meeting. She was the one who introduced them. They were standing in line waiting

    Still, the moment that he met Ms. Anderson, he realized that he couldn’t hold on to all the negative feelings that he had harbored for a while. After all, she didn’t treat him any differently, except for her son. She treated him the same way she would treat anybody else, no matter if they were born here or not. And so far, she had never once done anything to indicate that she would be unhappy with the situation he had found himself in.“Well, I’m glad to hear that. Now, do you want something to drink? I’ll get it ready right now. Do you want to sit down anywhere or should I go upstairs and get the glasses out for you?” she questioned, looking at him.“You don’t have to worry about me. I’ll be fine by myself,” he said, waving his hand dismissively.With that said, she got up from the sofa, headed towards the stairs, and headed up.Max looked around the living room.
