Only You

Chapter 45- Dakota

It isn't long before it's Sunday, & I find myself feeling both excited & nervous. Excited because I get to go out with Rain again, which we haven't done that often, though we constantly spend time together. I'm nervous though because I don't know what my therapist is going to be like. I mean... they seem nice, but you can never really know for sure until you meet them...

Soon enough we're driving to therapy, using the address Cato gave us. I tap my fingers on my lap nervously as we drive, looking out the window. Rain seems to notice, glancing at me & frowning.

"Are you... ok?" His eyebrows knit together, & he seems concerned, even though he's focusing on the road.

I make a noncommittal noise in my throat. "Mmm... I don't know... Kinda nervous, to be honest... I've never done this before..."

He nods understandingly. "Yeah, that's valid. I get that... I haven't either, but... At least we're going together, right?"

I nod, smiling slightly. "Yeah... So we can be awkward together, I guess..." I chuckle nervously & he smiles slightly.

"I'm sure it won't be that bad... We can't be the worse clients they've had... & they have experience with shit like this, I think..."

I nod slowly. "I guess... I just feel like... they're going to judge me... Even though I shouldn't really be worried about that..."

He nods, smiling sadly. "Yeah, I get that... Just think that... It's their job to handle things like this, &... I don't think they're judging you..."

I smile uncertainly. "Ok..."

Communication is important, y'all B). Don't forget that.

On another note, I hope you guys have liked my chapters lately. It's sometimes hard for me to write... When I initially planned this book, I didn't really plan this far... So I'm just taking it as I go... I know that's probs a bad way to write, sorry :/. But hey, you guys already knew I was a bad writer & decided to read regardless, so I guess that's on you :'D
