"Where had you gone?"

"To see Gigi, remember her?" I ask him as I link my hands around his neck.

His mouth has stilled on my neck and he looks at me. "Did you have fun?"

I shrug and he narrows his eyes at me. I know he want s to ask me what we talked about but all he does is continue planting feathery kisses on my neck. I am confused and much deterred. That's all I get?

I have come to learn nothing gets past him and with the reaction I am getting, this isn't something I am used to. I was expecting more than this.

"I bought a new car too," I tell him as he continues his descent.

"Really? At least I see that you are doing something. I was worried about you being holed up here doing nothing," he replies and I can't help but frown. He is being so strange, he is being nice and normal; something I have come to know doesn't go hand in hand with him.

He stands up, and I link my legs on his waist as he carries me over to the piano.
