Susan was sure that she only got to know Derek that morning and that they weren't exactly close but, why did it feel like they had been together for over a decade?
She felt so comfortable with him and felt familiar with his way of thinking. It was odd.
Now she had blurted out something that she couldn't take back. It was embarrassing, too embarrassing to look at him after what she just said.
'What is wrong with me?' she scolded inwardly.
Derek watched her as she cowered in embarrassment with a flushed expression. He felt amused that she was still 'that' type of person. He missed such an experience. How long had it been? A thousand years?
"We're not yet married but I'm already yours, it's good!" He teased her.
"No, what I meant to say was..." She couldn't come up with a reasonable excuse as her mind was completely blank.
She felt Derek was corrupting her thinking little by little. Was it that gorgeous face of his or ...what could it be? Why couldn't she act like she used to?
