Chapter 27:

The next few days were spent in bed with Kane picking out my villa in Italy and closing the deal with my realtor.

It was nice looking through all the places and imagining a life with Kane. We haven't been together very long let alone known each other for very long either. But with everything we've been through, it feels like a "normal" life would be no problem for us. We could never have to stress about money, but if we wanted to work we can. With Kane's position at work he can leave whenever he wants really, although being the kind person he is, he said he'd want to give them notice so they could find a replacement for him.

We finally agreed on a cute two-story villa in the countryside. It was big, and I would have preferred a little smaller since it will just be Kane and I living there since I can't have kids and all. But the house is beautiful either way. It even has a small vineyard off to the side of the house. There's a small town about 20-30minutes away that has all the basics we need.

After making our decision I couldn't help but tackle Kane on the bed. I was so excited to leave this place and live my life, especially with him by my side.

It's incredible to think how much has changed since he has arrived. Before I met him my life felt so dull and mundane. There really was nothing to look forward to, no reason to continue. I had no friends and my family doesn't really like me. I'm always basically on lockdown here and I don't even know what I want to do with my college degree.

None of that matters now that I have Kane. I don't care what I do as long as he's by my side. He brightens my world and makes me excited to wake up in the morning. We both have a past we haven't really shared but it doesn't really matter we have both suffered allowing a deep connection of understanding to build between us. He doesn't push me and I'm happy about that. I don't push him either, I can tell whenever we get close to the topic of what he's hiding hurt and regret swim in his eyes. I don't want to make him share such a dark part of himself with me if he isn't ready to shine a light on it.

It's now about 2 am and Kane and I are all snuggled up in my bed and despite the busy day we have I'm still wide awake.
