Instinct was forever going to be my enemy. I couldn't explain why I chickened out. instead of explaining to my friends all that had been up to during this time that I hadn't been able to hang out with another club, all I ended up doing was lying to him about how much I loved Elizabeth and that I was getting used to her company. that it was a misunderstanding from the first place and that we had gotten Close step by step. now they were looking at me as though I was a f****** ghost. like I had grown to be ads or something full stop of course it would be much more difficult to convince my friends that I would even settle down.
