The tension between us was wild and not exactly in a good way. But I said I was willing to give it another go and I was going to try. The only thing I was hesitant about was not being able to go back to the way we were. "Leah?".

"Yeah?".

"You do know how sorry I am don't you?". He placed his hand on my knee squeezing gently.

"I know". I didn't want to keep talking about it. The more he brought it up the more I struggled to move past it. I knew he was sorry but he still had to gain back my trust. "She meant nothing to me, you're the only-....".

"Can we please not". I sighed. "I've told you I'm willing to try again but please stop talking about it".
