“You weren’t sure you didn’t want him back. It’s okay. You were married to him. You loved him.”
“That’s just it. I loved him in the past. I haven’t loved him for a long time now. And as for being upset you were jealous, I realized how ridiculous that was when I saw you with that woman. I wanted to pull her hair out and tell her to leave you alone. And honestly, the only thing I saw was her kissing your cheek. It could easily have been a friendly kiss but it made me crazy.”
“I’m glad. Otherwise you wouldn’t have come here and we’d still be broken up. Which reminds me, are we back together?”
She laughed. “Yes. But Connor, I’m still…” She didn’t want to hurt him again or make him angry but—
Connor interrupted her thoughts by saying, “You still don’t want to move in with me.”
“I’m sorry. I want to be with you. I just need my own space. Even if I don’t spend much time there alone, I need it.”
“Okay. I get it.”
“Really?”
“Really. I’m not going to rush you. We’ll just take it a day at a time and when or if you want to move in together you tell me.”
“What if I can’t?”
“You mean ever?” She nodded, her heart in her throat. How could she love him, which she did, but still not commit to him?
“I think we shouldn’t worry about that right now. Let’s just enjoy being back together.”
