Bailey POV

It's been a week since I've seen Zeke, he called my dad the day after and told him he wouldn't be able to work for a week as he needed to look after his sister. I don't know whether that's true or it's an excuse to not see me but I generally believe he is. I have seen him at his house which is only next to our house, it's on our land but it's not right next door.

I most morning and nights I look out over the field and I see him sitting in his conservatory reading a book or in the kitchen making food

I most morning and nights I look out over the field and I see him sitting in his conservatory reading a book or in the kitchen making food. I know he has been avoiding me because he wants to give me time to think and I have, I want him in my life but I am so scared to let him in but that is also my downfall because if I want him in my life I have to let him in and if I can't let him in he won't be in my life.

I am sitting in the kitchen with the family picking at my breakfast when there's a knock at the door, I stand up and go and answer it and see Zeke standing there and next to him stands a little blonde girl around 7 or 8 and I'm guessing this is Zeke sister.

I am so in shock seeing him at the door I have stayed silent and then the little girl speaks.

Faye – Hi

I automatically snap out of my thoughts and see Zeke sister is looking between us and smiling big.

Bailey – Hi, sorry I wasn't expecting anyone.

Zeke - Sorry are we disturbing you at breakfast? Faye wanted to meet everyone so I thought it wouldn't be a problem.

Faye – She is really pretty Zeke, you were right.

I look between them both and Zeke has gone bright red and looks down at the floor and I try everything in me not to laugh.

Bailey – Thank you Faye, you are really pretty too.

Zeke – Thanks for that you little monkey!

Faye – Your welcome, you can thank me later (laughing).
