"Yes. You do. Otherwise, you'll be in his way too, so don't do that. You're both too beautiful to let yourselves miss out because of that nonsense. Enjoy it. There's far too much shit in this world to miss out on the good stuff if you don't have to. Trust me, I'm talking from experience here. I was spending far too much time in my own way once and it almost made me miss what was right under my nose with Ky. Not many people in this world manage to find a person who just fits them and if they do, then it does feel easy and right when it happens. That doesn't mean we can just leave our demons at the door, I know that for sure. But with the right person, the demons don't win as much because you have someone to fight against them with. A partner in crime. And as your ex-partner in crime, I'm telling you to let yourself have this. Okay?" Reecy picked up her glass again but had almost gotten all the way through the bottle already, she had been out here thinking that long. Thank fuck it wasn't alcoholic. "Not even keeping track of the sex? Day-um, boy. That says it all. But I know our Winnie is a silent sexbomb assassin in the sack like Ky is. It's the ones you always think would be vanilla who turn out to be a whole damn sundae with a cherry on top. I know he was kicking himself about the insta-hangover at the time but they can't have all the good qualities. He's still an epic lightweight and if he's a bit nervous, he'll drink more and that can be counterproductive but you nailed it taking him to that hotel for the date. Even though I know you definitely didn't presume sex by doing it and it was all because it was a book-themed hotel you thought he'd like. But it gave him the private space to chill and connect, which you can never go wrong with for an introvert. Did you realise both you guys and Ky and I both had our first big relationship moments in a hotel when we weren't anticipating it? Kismet, baby. Should I be worried about this... whatever he wants to talk to me about? It sounds like a pretty big deal. He wouldn't tell me by text, no matter how much I was nudging him to. I'm nervous. I don't know if I can take any more massive emotional hits at the moment. I've barely processed that I'm knocked up when it was one billion percent unexpected."
