Forever in the Past and Forever in the Future

Chapter 22

“Well, you're going to get to go to France. That's so exciting!" I say as cheerfully as I can once we're alone.

 

Kas smiles at me but it doesn't reach her eyes, "Yeah, I'm sure I will be more excited as the date gets closer. Right now, it makes me nervous and sad, I guess.”

 

“Kas, I know it is kind of weird timing but what do you think about moving into my apartment instead of staying in the suite? I mean, if you want to stay in the suite that's fine too. I just thought, you know, maybe you would be more comfortable...here?”

 

I rub the back of my neck as she looks at me, contemplating my request.

 

“Sooo we would sleep in the same bed? You wouldn't sleep on the sofa anymore like you do in my suite?" she asks tentatively.

 

"She's gonna say no! You fucked up, dummy! " Saint howls.

 

“Shut up, Saint!”

 

“Whatever makes you comfortable, Baby. If you want me to sleep in the bed, I promise I won't try anything. I want everything to be at your pace. If you want me to sleep on the sofa, I can do that too.”

 

"Won't try anything?! What's the point?!" Saint continues to shout. 2

 

Kas looks around my apartment for a bit, then back at me.

 

“T trust you to sleep in the bed with me and not try anything," she says calmly, "I just want you to promise one thing.”

 

“Anything, Baby," I reassured her.

 

“Never make me wake up alone. If you have to leave, wake me up and tell me. No more notes or searching for you. It scares me and makes me feel so empty when I wake up alone.”

 

I pick her up into a bear hug and kiss her cheek. She giggles as my chin scruff tickles her face.
