"Thanks for co"

Then I leave, with a promise to co to call an Uber to getby the curb, is Jon

I go to the car and open the passenger door

"You waited," I say when I get inside

"I'et o ho to my place"

"Jon," I say, frustrated that he's right "You should give me the space to make my own decisions"

"I want you in my bed"

We drive off and he says nothing else

I watch the roads, wondering whether he's taking me to his place or mine I finally see fa me off at my place

We pull up toatanything and we'll be where ere before any of this happened, except we'll have the sex between us Maybe we can get back to that place when things were good

I think I'd rather be there than where we are now

I open the door He doesn't say anything and neither do I

He drives off and I watch hi

We're both so damn stubborn

I key in the nu ht after a second try and go inside the cool dark interior The only light co room and plop down on my sofa Outside hts from a ship out in the harbor and itat that beautiful view
