Coming back home Hugo hugged and kissed me, and for the rest of the afternoon he didn't let me go. "I missed you so much Rose."

I caressed his beard-free face "I missed you too." Feeling a bit guilty because I didn't miss him that much. "Where's your beard?" I asked him.

"I got a remarque from a colleague."

"You did? And you listened to him?"

"Her, after her remarke I looked in the mirror and weh was right. I did look sloppy."

I sighed "I told you that since you started growing that beard."

"Uh? Really?"

"Yeah, never mind. So, on Sunday we are going to the beach with the whole family. Lexie and Chris are coming too."

"The beach" he whined "you know I don't like the beach."

"I know that you don't like it, Hugo. But maybe for once you can do something I like."

"I do plenty things that you like."

"Yeah? Like what? Because I remember that I stopped with most things that I liked."

"I didn't come home to argue Rose."

I closed my eyes for a moment trying to stay calm. "Hugo, we aren't arguing. I'm just trying to let you see something."

He stayed quiet so I stood up with a sigh and started dinner, after a while he took his suitcase and went to our room. A bit later I heard the shower running. I turned on some music to break the silence.

Hugo came back out our room and walked over to me, wrapping his arms around my waist "sorry Rose."

I turned around in his arms "don't Hugo. Let's enjoy our time together."

"Okay" he gave me a kiss.

"What do you want to do tomorrow?" I asked him.

"Sleep in. Maybe go into town, enjoy the weather."

"Ok, sounds good. Can you set the table? Dinner is ready in 5."

"Okay. Who did you visit while I was sleeping?"

"Lucas, he went to the same high school as we did." I told him while I served food onto our plates.

I handed him his plate "Thanks. I don't remember a Lucas in our year."

"No, he was in my brother's year. He was already gone when you arrived. He is the one everyone in high school followed online. With the stunts he did, and all his travels."

He nodded "he came to visit Thorn when he was injured."

"Indeed, well Iris signed me up to visit voluntary random people in the hospital."

"That's nice."

"I visit only one person. And Lucas."

"Why is he at the hospital?"
