#Chapter 90

Despite that I want him to stay and be with me. I crave safety and comfort at the moment. And being left on my own will drive them away from me.

/"Of course,/" I say and look at the buttons of his jacket.

/"Do you want me to stay?/"

My heart squeals at the prospect of that but my mind quiets down to let me do the right thing.

/"No. You spent last night taking care of me. Thank you for that. But you should go and look over things at your company./"

Why do I feel so sad about not spending the rest of my day with him?

/"If you need me, then I'll be there for you. No matter what./" That's the kinda promise a best friend makes.

/"You'll be here in the evening./" I smile at him.

/"I could be here for the entire day if you want./"

My stomach fills with butterflies and I can feel them creating a cloud of magic dust that brings back old feelings.
