I felt both sad and happy. Sad because this wonderful week was now over, but happy that I had found a man who could handle me.
~ Alex ~
I piled the bags into the back of the car and then got into the front with Sophie. Alone again we kissed and held each other. She was staying with her parents for a day or so before going back to university. Luckily their house was on my own way home, although it honestly didn’t matter as I would drive this girl to the ends of the earth. Our journey was relatively silent, as we both felt the impending separation very keenly and found it hard to find any words that felt right. I stopped at her parent’s house and we kissed and hugged desperately. “I’m going to miss you, little darling. Let me know when I can see you again.”
“You bet,” she replied.
I carried her bags to the front door. “Call me tonight,” she whispered fiercely.
“I promise.” I couldn’t really kiss her again on her parent’s doorstep, so I turned and walked back to the car, and it felt like I was leaving part of my heart behind in the porch.
