Throughout the drive, Duke was holding my hand and rubbing the back of my palm with his thumb.
His every gentle stroke told me that he is there for me and that he needs me in the touching distance.
I was lost in his handsome profile, remembering that yesterday we were in a similar position, yet our relationship changed since then drastically. Or maybe those were my feelings that changed. I opened up and allowed my urges to guide me to the man who makes me believe that anything is possible.
Before leaving his apartment, Duke gave me a key and said how other than him and Sergio, now I also have a copy and my heart soared at the thought that he is allowing me to come into his space anytime I want.
