Derek did not know what it was about Emily Molson, and facing her that made him want to run away from his problems. But he did not like it at all. He was not a coward and all of this constant dodging around the topic that he usually would be able to just face and get over with, was really bothering him. Cowardice, just did not suit him. How did perpetual cowards who had no spine to speak of, live with themselves? If this state continued, Derek was not sure he would be able to stomach being in his own presence.
If he could have, he would have booked a flight to get away from himself.
