But I guess I could learn to let him look after me. I could learn to live his lifestyle. I couldn't deny how I felt about him even if I wanted to punch him at times. I was falling and I was falling hard. "I'll answer I promise".

The line went dead and yet all I wanted was to hear his voice again. Putting my phone away I grabbed my glasses from my bedside table and put them on. My hair was already pulled up into a messy bun.

"I haven't seen Lana in days. The house is very quiet without her". Looking at me from the corner of her eye I could see the hint of a smile.

"She'll be home tonight". I laughed. My gran already knew where she was and what she had been up to.

"Nonsense Leah. Don't keep Charlotte waiting".
