Thank you for loving me the way that you have, you have healed me in ways that I never thought possible. And I love you so much, more than I ever thought I could love anyone. You've given me so many amazing things to hold onto. Because of you, I have hope that someone as incredible as you could lov
Truth be told, I'm still a little angry about my fight with Rhode . He said some things that were way out of line but I guess I did too. When he started trying to justify his behaviour I just saw red, freaked out and let him have it. Maybe it's the concussion, or it's the ring on my finger that give
"Well...I said that it was okay for him to have female friends so it should work the same way for me, and then he mentioned that I wasn't okay with Kate..." I trail off with a sigh. "His old fuck buddy? This guys a real fucking idiot bringing her into this" Poppy replies with soft anger. "So
I hate talking about the accident, it's all anyone has been wanting to talk to me about. How scary it must have been, how painful, poor Amelia, how is she feeling, will she be like that forever. I just want everyone to stop asking those same questions over and over again."Was she badly injured?""T
"In what way?""I'm a complicated guy" I begin with another sigh. "I clearly have issues, I'm older than her by a lot, we live quite different lives, and I'm scared that one day she'll see someone else and think that they're a better option. That someone else won't give her as much grief as I do" I
But it's not for very long, only a few minutes later I get an alert on my phone saying: 'FRONT GATE OPENING', Rhode 's car shows up on the camera as he pulls into the driveway. For some reason I find myself sitting up straighter on the couch and running my fingers through my hair, like I'm trying to
"Toast, two minute noodles, microwave meals. It had to be cheap, there wasn't often money to buy seperate ingredients" I say with a shrug. It's in times when I think about where I've come from to where I am now when I realise how utterly unbelievable my life is now."Fuckin hell, I don't think I've
He doesn't ever really ask me about my meetings with Dr Lawrence and I like that. Not because I'm hiding things from him about what we talk about, just simply because that's how I like to deal with it. If it's something that he needs to know I'd tell him, otherwise it's just for me to deal with."Ye
"Wanna give one a go?" I suggest to her with a small grin."Might be a bit premature, don't think Max is the marriage type quiet yet" She responds with a quiet giggle, then catches herself as we all stop and gape at her. She hasn't mentioned Max in that context in a very long time. Behind Poppy, Fra
"It's stunning sweetheart, absolutely stunning" My mum comments excitedly as I allow my hands to rest at my sides, my reflection making my heart race quickly. I'm wearing a wedding dress. Maybe not the wedding dress, but a wedding dress none the less. It all seems insane to think that I had spent th
Fran, Bianca and now Sarah are at the racks, perhaps browsing for me or for Fran, who recently moved to London and is flat hunting with her boyfriend Zayn."They have wedding dresses at charity shops? I can't tell if that's bleak or romantic" Poppy comments quietly to me as I sit down beside her."
"You are referred to as exactly what you are, a man, while I am referred to as my relationship to you, a wife. Like the only identifiable thing about me is that now I am your wife but you still get to be a man in your own right" I explain. It's something that's always irked me while watching TV show
"You forget we had sex in a bookstore?" Rhode leans in close and murmurs to me, heat rising on my cheeks instantly. One of my wilder moments I would say."Did not forget that, but I'd rather not have to explain that story to, well anyone" I say with an embarrassed giggle. I definitely told at least
"Please, take it" He states in a soft tone that makes butterflies flit around my stomach. "When?" He adds with a little more urgency."How about, before the years end?" I suggest. It's early October now so going into the colder England months, it's not exactly going to be extraordinary weather but t
"Thank you" I mumble against his lips, brushing my nose against his. His hand lingers on my hip as I come down off of my tiptoes, the wind blowing some of my hair into my face."I'll support you either way, it's up to you" He softly states, his eyes never leaving mine as his hand leaves my hip and t
"Hey, you remember yesterday when we had the family over for lunch?" I say just as we approach the small coffee stand near the fountain at the centre of the park. It's run by a father and son out of a truck that normally attracts a large crowd of locals but today seems a little isolated, supposed we
"To be honest, I feel anxious about taking her out on my own" Rhode states honestly as we wait at the corner for our crosswalk light to turn green. It's a surprising admission that immediately gets my attention."You've never mentioned anything like that" I express as I put a hand on his arm while h
