"Did you both know my dad?"
"Yes," Bob said. Phil nodded but stood really awkwardly.
Kit moved forward then and placed his hand on Phil's back.
"He was with me the night we rescued you. The night your parents were..."
The thought, as always, pained every inch of my body and I closed my eyes briefly before nodding.
"Thank you for being here," I said then and they both nodded and gave me a tight smile.
"Will you need to be inside? I can get you both drinks and—"
"Thank you, Miss Johnson, but no. We'll be outside mainly, unless we need to come inside."
"Please call me Eve," I smiled as they said their goodbyes.
Leaving me and Kit alone.
"They look like normal guys," I said stupidly.
"What were you expecting, the men in black?"
"Something like that..."
Smiling slightly, Kit brushed his knuckles against my stomach.
"When is the next scan?"
I shook my head. "I can't remember the date, but I have a letter to confirm the next one," I answered, remembering the letter I'd received to confirm my next scan appointment.
It was going to be the twenty-week scan.
He nodded and leaned forward to kiss my forehead, reserved.
"I'll see you later," he said leaving and shutting the front door behind him.
I stood there for a while, uncertainty laying thick on my mind as I stared at the front door before eventually moving about the room. I headed back over to the letter I'd received confirming my scan appointment. Then picked up the other letter I'd received confirming the pass I'd earned for photography. I held the paper in my hand and shook my head. Although I was so happy to have passed, I couldn't believe I'd managed it. Especially with everything that had happened. It was a good thing that I'd passed it now because there would be no time for college from here on out. No way would I even be allowed under the circumstances. I decided to call Lilly because I needed to hear her voice so badly after today.
"What are you thinking, Eves?"
I froze and snapped out of my daydream to look at Lilly. On my lap, I had a bowl of pasta that Lilly had made once she'd come over. After my awkward moment with Kit, I'd called Lilly and she'd come straight over. We'd gone over everything once again that had happened between me and Kit and I'd explained Delta to her once more.
"I don't even know," I answered honestly.
My mind was a god-damn mess.
"I guess I'm just thinking, what am I gonna do?"
"I think there's only one thing to do," she said honestly, tackling a piece of pasta in her dish.
"Enlighten me?" I asked after waiting a while as she chased the pasta around her dish with her fork.
"Got you, you little shit!" Lilly spoke fiercely to the piece of pasta now held up to her face.
I raised my eyebrows as she shoved it into her mouth and chewed it like a boss. Impatiently, I waited for her to swallow.
"You love him, right?"
