I’ve been emailing you and left you voicemails, but you haven’t replied.”  Talking to Nick I actually feel nothing.
     
    How can I feel nothing for someone I was su pposed to have loved.
     
    “Rona please, you should have been my wife now, at least you can hear me out.”
     
    The cheek of him.  As though it was me who called the wedding off.  “I’m sorry, but did you just say I should have been your wife now?  I think I’m hearing things.  As I recall you walked out on me an hour before the wedding and you know what?”  I was walking backwards and forwards in the kitchen now, waiting for him to answer.
     
    “What?”
     
    Cade is stood close to me, looking at me as I reply to Nick, “Cancelling the wedding was the best thing you ever did, so I guess I need to thank you for that.”
     
    After a long pause, “What do you mean, you where crying and screaming at me when I told you I didn’t want to get married.”
     
    The Pig!
     
    “What did you expect me to do an hour before the weddin g, you arrogant ass?”  I look at Cade who raises an eyebrow at this comment.
     
    Taking a deep breath, “You know what, this conversation is over.   I‘ve nothing else to say to you.”  Going to put the phone down I can hear him shouting ‘Rona’.  “What now?  I really am losing patience.”
     
    “I’m here in Jackson, staying at the cabin.   Please meet me for lunch and then if you don’t like what I say, I promise not to ring or email you again.”

    I look through the window at the deer close to the back porch, “Not lunch, ring me back in five minutes and I’ll let you know whether or not I’ll meet you.”   I hang up.
     
    Going over to where Cade is now sitting, he opens his arms to me.   Not thinking twice, I sit in his lap, he wraps his arms around my waist and I put my arms around his shoulders.  He always feels so good against me.  He holds me tight, “Are you alright?”
     
    Not wanting the hug to end I just nod, and carry on holding onto him.  “I am now.”  I pull slightly away to talk to him.
     
    “Nick is in Jackson, at his friend’s cabin.   He wants to meet me this afternoon to talk.  He says if I do, he’ll stop inundating me with voicemail and emails.”  I sigh as Cade places a tender kiss to my lips, “I think it would be worth it just to get the messages to stop.”
     
    “Where does he want to meet?” Cade asks.
     
    “He didn’t say.  Can you recommend anywhere?”
     
    “Tell him to meet you in the Silver Dollar Grill inside the Wort Hotel.”
     
    “D o you think it’s a good idea to meet him?  I have to admit I’m a bit nervous.”
     
    “He obviously feels like there’s unfinished business between you both, so maybe meeting with him this afternoon will finish that, and you both can move on.   If it helps I’m going to come with you, but stay in the background so that he doesn’t know I’m there.” 
     
    I kiss both of Cade’s eyes shut then place a hot kiss on his lips.   “I have already moved on, I’m happier here with you than I ever have been.”
     
    “Good!   Because you mean the world to me.”  Holding my face between his hands, “I know this is fast, but I love you Rona.  I don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow, but I can’t fight what you make me feel anymore.”
     
    “I love you too.”   With a tearful laugh, “You make me so happy.”
     
    My phone ringing interrupts a perfect moment.   Wiping the tears from my face, I answer, not bothering with politeness, “I’ll meet you at one, inside the Silver Dollar Grill.  Do you know where that is?”
     
    “I’ll find it.”   Hanging up on him again, I turn to Cade and I just start to move in for another kiss when Jake appears.
     
    “Get a room,” Jake says, heading towards the kitchen, “Anyone want a refill?” he shouts waving a cup in his hand.
     
    “No thanks.” We reply back in tandem.
     
    I don’t quite believe how
