The next morning:
Sandra:
I woke from one of the worst sleeps I have had in a long time at around 6.30am so as per usual I go downstairs and make some breakfast, I had almost completely forgot what had happened with Ryan last night until I saw his shoes beside my front door.
I don't know what I'm feeling towards him, when he kissed me I felt safe and secure like before but whether it was just a drunken mistake to him I'm not sure, I hope not I thought to myself. When I had finished breakfast I heard a door open upstairs and saw Ryan walking downstairs in just his underwear. "Good morning!" I said in a nervous, awkward tone. "Morning Sandy" Ryan answered leaning in for a hug.
"We need to talk.." Ryan said grabbing my arm as I went to sit down, my heart sank. "About what Ryan?" I answered acting like nothing had happened. "Last night Sandra, what I did, I'm so sorry I don't know what came over me. Maybe the wine." he answered.
"Seriously Ryan it's fine, look I'm gonna go in the shower, there is breakfast on the counter help yourself, there is another shower upstairs and we can talk after" I said heading to the shower.
Ryan:
Wow she is beautiful I thought to myself as she walked up the stairs, the truth is I do know what came over me last night.. I'm in love with her, I am. Should I tell her? Will she like me? Thoughts were running through my mind. I finished my breakfast and went in the shower.
About twenty minutes later I was ready, dressed and heading downstairs, I saw Sandra sitting on the sofa reading a magazine that she was in with the meanest celebs, I could see it was making her upset so I sat close to her and wrapped my arm around her side, she buried her head into my neck and I could hear her sobbing. "Am I really mean? Is that what everyone thinks of me?" she asked me between sobs. I wiped the tears from her face "No sweetie of course not, the person who wrote that doesn't know what he is talking about." I hugged her tight and never wanted to let go.
Sandra:
I couldn't believe this stupid magazine was getting to me but having Ryan there helped. Once we separated from our hug I looked up at him and the words just slipped out "Do you have feelings for me?" Silence filled the room and I just stared at the floor. "Well Sandra I will be honest, I never really got over you before, I'm still in love with you and always have been honey." he said holding my hand. "Wow" was the only thing that came out of my mouth. I continued "Oh Ryan, I'm so glad you said that, I think I'm still in love with you too!"
Just as I said that I saw a smile creep on to his face which made my heart melt. Before I could say anything else his lips were on mine as he gave me a small peck and hugged me tighter than before, I had never felt so at home. "But.." "Sandra, no buts"
"But Ryan what about the age difference my birthday is soon and I will be 50, you're not even 40 yet!!" "Sandra, sweetie you could be 70 years old and I would still love you." Ryan continued.
My eyes filled with tears but nothing came out, could he be the man I am supposed to spend my life with I thought to myself as I kissed Ryan this time for longer with more love and passion and this time I knew it wasn't a mistake.
