I finish my eyeliner before grabbing my purse and heading out. I dressed business today because I feel the need to make up for screwing the prime minister a little bit.

To: Justin
I'm on my way! I may be slightly late I don't know how crowded it is right now.

I put on some black Prada sunglasses to block out the sun as I walk towards the Tim Horton's about 3 blocks from the office. The streets aren't nearly as crowded as I expected. I get to the Tim Horton's in about 15 minutes. When I walk in I see Justin in a secluded corner tapping his foot nervously. I rush in and make my way towards him. When he sees me he stands up.

"Good morning, Miss Eliza. You look good. " Justin winks. "Sleep well?"

"I slept great, how about you?" I reply as I sit down.

"I slept like a baby." Justin took a sip of his tea. "Do you need to order anything?"

"I'm okay for now. I'm just excited to see you." I bite my lip and blush. Justin smirks.

"So, I wanted to talk again. I know what I said last night and I mean it." Justin leans in a little bit.

"I know that, I did too but we also have to be realistic. You're married with 3 kids and the prime minister." I motion to the two of us. "'Us' is not an option. That's not even a choice."

"I fully aware it's not an option but it is a choice. I made that choice last night!" Justin argues as he runs his hands through his hair.

"Justin, I know. But I do not want this to end up ruining your career or worse ending what you have with Sophie. I don't want to risk any of that for you." I reply as his face goes sullen.

"So what you're saying is let's forget about last night? Hope the media never catches wind of it?" Justin sighs and rubs his temples.

"Basically." I frown. This isn't what I want.

"Is that truly what you want to do?" Justin looks up at me with his eyes begging me to say no to his question.

I stumble to find an answer. Of course I don't want to do that. That was the best night. There is chemistry here. "No. It's not. But I also know what's right. I don't want to screw your career." I stand up from the table. "Justin, I'll see you at work." I give him a soft smile before leaving. His face pale as I leave.

"Hello Miss Norwell, I have a schedule for you today. It's for the upcoming trips." Telford hands me a printed out calendar. Great. Looks like every weekend I'll be alone with Justin.

"Thank you..." I mumble. My chest feels tight and achy as I read the schedule. Every other day there is a trio of press conference. Every other day I'll be right by Justin.

"You okay?" Telford asks as I sit down to try and breath a little bit.

"I'm fine. I just need a minute. It's been a long morning." I gasp slightly. My chest tightening.

"Take your time." Telford looks worriedly at me. I nod in response.

"Is there anyway I could go get some air before I start work?" I smile as the feeling begins t grip my throat.

"Of course, Dear. Just know, Justin is getting several packages from the others today. Be ready for a lot of walking and talking!" Telford encourages me. So not what I need right now.
