"Come here gorgeous"
Conor wrap his arms around me and I breath in the smell of his aftershave from the T-shirt he's wearing.
Today had been tough and I can't really put my finger on why it had been. I'd just been so emotional the whole day and adding that to the constant tiredness had made my life crash.
"Let's go for a walk now that Nelle's at Caspar's"
Conor look down at me smiling and I take a deep breath, maybe some fresh air could turn this day around into something better.
I grab my jeans jacket and tie my converses that's already on my feet from when we'd dropped Leonelle off. Conor just leave his hoodie on, not really bothering about how he looks.
"I'll call Joe and ask if he wants to come with us"
I feel my heart drop as he says it, I'd wished for a night with only the two of us but apearantly that wasn't the thought Conor had.
Conor lace his fingers with mine as he dial Joe's number, I just stay quiet, feeling him rub his thumb over my knuckles softly.
............
I sit down on a bench in the park, watching Baileys run after the ball Joe and Conor is taking in turns to throw for her. The two men are standing with their backs against me and I can clearly hear them laughing over something funny that one of them must've said.
A smile grow on my face as the Labrador stop running around and look over at me. The boys don't seem to have noticed so I pat my thighs in hope the dig will come running towards me but soon enough Baileys attention go back to the yellow tennis ball and I'm left on my own once again.
Then it happens, a sad feeling starting to build up inside of me as my eyes start watering. I can just about hear Conor's faint voice, calling my name from the lawn in the middle of the park but I can't answer, the whole world starting to get blurry as the tears begin to stream down my cheeks.
"Jessie gorgeous, what happened, have you hurt something?"
I feel Conor carefully wrapping his arms around my waist, slowly rocking me back and forth as I cry into his chest. His heart is pounding fast against my skin probably from him running over to me.
"I...I do..... I don't....... I don't know"
He rub my back as I stuttering manage to say something. This was what my whole day had been filled of, me just crying without a reason at all.
"Come on let it all out"
I cry until I haven't got any tears left, leaving a dark wet stain on Conor's T-shirt when I'm done.
"There we go, much better"
Conor hug me tight as he spot the small smile on my lips.
"Sorry for being like this today"
He kiss my nose softly before leaning his forehead against mine.
"If I remember correctly you've been like this for the past week or so now baby"
I roll my eyes at him knowing that he's right, I've been pretty much like an emotional roller coaster lately.
"Oh just stop it"
.............
"Aren't they cute together?"
We were sat on the sofa in Caspar and Merissa's flat, me leaning my head against Conor's chest as Caspar is playing with Leonelle on the floor in front of us.
