counter. So much for my good morning. I strip off my clothes and get into the shower. As I'm cleaning myself, I try to figure out what to do about Ben. I suppose I should let Trevan know about the texts and that brings a smile to my face. I can't believe I am having these feelings for a man like him. He is so not my type, but with these dreams and seeing him yesterday, I could get use to it. He looked good enough to eat, and I wanted him to touch me more.
I get ready for work and put a reminder on my phone to call Trevan. I make sure to set my alarm as I leave the house. I lock the door behind me and walk to my car. As I am about to get in, I see Ben's car down the street again. I quickly get in my car and drive to work, not looking behind me.
I run into work, thanking god that Anne is already here and the door is unlocked. I slam the door and lock it behind me, feeling relief as soon as I hear it click. I can hear Anne in the kitchen, already starting on the baking.
I drop my purse on the desk in the office, and make my way to the kitchen. I take a deep breath and plaster a smile on my face, like I have done so many times before. Nobody needs to know what is going on, so I hide my fear deep inside me.
I smile widely, "Good Morning."
"Good Morning," she replies. Anne looks up at me and her smile fades, "You okay?"
"Of course," I reply with as much lightness, I can muster. "So tell me what happened with Wyatt."
Changing the subject to Wyatt, worked perfectly. As soon as I mentioned his name, she smiled widely and started to blush. Sometimes I forget how much Anne knows me, I can't always hide my feelings from her, like I can other people.
As we are baking, Anne is telling me about her weekend. I am only half listening, because my thoughts keep going to Ben. What am I going to do?
I hand the latte to the customer, as I hear my phone ding. I take it out of my pocket to see the reminder to call Trevan. It's been such a slow morning, that I think I will actually go to the station to see him.
Anne is cleaning off some tables, I walk over to her.
"Hey, I have an errand to run. Kayla will be here in about an hour, do you mind if I leave?"
She looks at me with a concerned look, "Sure. You know you can tell me what's going on."
"Nothing is going on," I smile at her.
"Okay. But know that I will get it out of you sooner or later." She walks over to me and gives me a hug. "I love you."
"Love you too, see ya later bitch." We both start laughing, and I head to the office for my purse.
I sigh as I get into my car, sometimes it sucks to have someone know you so well. I won't be able to hide what's going on with Ben from her much longer. I pull out of the parking lot and turn onto Main Street.
I look into my rearview mirror, and my heart drops. There is Ben waving at me, so now he is following me every where. I'm thankful the police station is not that far away. As I pull into the parking lot of the station, I see Ben drive by and wave. "Are you fucking kidding me," I say to him. I start shaking my head, it's not like he can hear me.
I find a spot in front and park my car. I sit there for a few minutes, trying to collect my thoughts and calm my nerves. Suddenly there is a knock on my window, next to me. I jump and feel like my heart stopped. I look over to see that Trevan is looking in at me. I smile despite how I feel.
He opens my door and crouches down to me, "Are you okay?"
All I can do is shake my head. He grabs me gently and embraces me. I wrap my arms around him and cry silently into his shoulder. I hadn't realized how upset I really was. Hating myself for being weak, I push away from him and wipe the tears violently from my face.
"Hey, it's alright to let it out," he says softly, as he brushes my hair off my face.
I look into his eyes, not sure what to do now. I clear my throat, "I need to talk to you."
"I figured that's why you were here. Come on, we'll go inside and you can tell me what happened."
