Chapter 56

• The kiss between us is broken and not a moment later the familiar black car pulls up to the curb and Ambrose leaps out to open the back seat for Amelia and I. He regards us both warmly as Amelia says hello to him before she climbs into the back seat. I give him a solemn nod and follow in after her, I already said please that should be enough mEloisers for the day right? I don't want people to think I'm going all soft just because of this girl.
• "Nearly ready love?" I call out to her from my seated position on her couch while she packs her bag in her bedroom. I know if I spend a long period of time in that room with her then I'm going to want to throw her into the bed and bury myself in her.
• "Yeah almost" She calls back in response. I know I shouldn't, but what if she needs help packing her bras and panties? What kind of man would I be if I didn't come to her aid. I jump up and cross the floor of the apartment to the bedroom door and lean against the door frame. It's possibly the smallest bedroom I've ever seen. It can only hold a double bed, a chest of drawers, a night stand and a wardrobe. It's making me claustrophobic, how can she stand this?
