Mica gets here tomorrow. Yay?

I can definitely say James and I have grown much closer personally and intimately these last few weeks.

Last night makes me laugh today. James ate and was so tired so we ended the night with a goodnight kiss. It was just as good for me though. I love him and I don't really need sex from him to enjoy every second we're together. From the events of last night, I'm guessing all he thinks about isn't sex. So that makes me happy.

He does take my breath away with the sexual experiences but I'm glad.

"James, It's raining again." I laugh as I lay on the bed painting my toenails and he has his eyes closed, probably trying to sleep but he listens to me either way. It's his after lunch nap.

"Mmmmm" He replies.

"What if it rains this week again?" I laugh.

"You can only hope," He gives me a good response.

"39 days baby." I focus on the big toe. It's pretty hard because of the shape of my toes.

"Don't remind me." He groans.

"You don't want to leave either?" I giggle like a little school girl when it's the lunch break.

"Of course not. Everything here is perfect. So calm, so private, so quiet. Well, it's quiet when you aren't angry." He chuckles. "Back home, other men will be able to look at you, I will have to hear my father nag at me all the fucking time, just.. Everything." He takes a deep breath.

"I'm glad we agree." I kiss his cheek.

"Me too. Baby, close the curtains and turn the light off please." He asks and I do as told.

As I'm about to exit the room, I quickly make my way to James and plant another kiss on his cheek. "I don't want other women to look at you either." I smile on his face and he smile with his eyes closed.

"I love you." He plants a kiss on my lips and lays back down.

I exit and head to the phone.

It rings 3 times before I hear Mrs. Reynolds sweet voice. "Hello?"

"Mrs.-" I make sure the room is closed, and I speak lower. "Mrs. Reynolds! I'm so glad to finally hear your voice." I smile.

"Lina! We miss you so much as well! I'm sorry we haven't been able to contact you.. That old hag Richard didn't want to give us the number of your phone there. He told us that he doesn't want us to be that close to you. That he wants you to be completely focused on his son and being a good wife," I hear her take deep breaths.

"So you guys aren't moving?" I ask, excitement in my voice.

"What? No no no, we must finish paying off Laurie's grave and then.. We'll be able to spend money like how we did before." She giggles.

"Gosh, I'm so happy! I thought you forgot about me." I laugh.

"How could we? We love you deeply Lina and miss you so so so much!" She giggles and my smile grows even bigger.

"I love you guys too."

"So, how have you been? Tell me everything." Her voice is soft and it reminds me of Laurie's.

"I've actually been doing pretty good." I smile and run my fingers through some knots on my hair.

"Has the young man been nice?" She asks and my heart warms up thinking about him.

"His name is James," I blush.

"Hmm, tell me about him." She says and I am more than happy to.

"I- I love him." I admit and she doesn't say anything so I continue. "He told me it first, some days ago. He's nothing like his father so that's nice, and he has a very kind heart." I smile.
