this one is pretty small.

I go to the chamber and take a seat on the bed. I take deep breaths and review the last 5 minutes. And I am losing my composure and this can be harmful. I cannot let my feelings intrude. It can become deadly for me.

Then I notice, how it must've looked when I walked out of the room. Suddenly I am afraid that I might have hurt that sweet woman's feelings. I am ashamed.

Seconds later, Jax walks in and notices my state. My head bowed down in shame and probably exhaustion. My hands lying limp on my lap.

I do not bother to lift my head up but do so when he sits next to me on bed.

"She is sorry. She shouldn't have pushed you to your limit."

I love to make people feel bad about their choices but something in that woman I did not want to. For the first time, I feel like I should trust my instinct.

"No, I am sorry. I shouldn't have left like that. She must have felt so bad."

"She did. She is sulking and really feeling bad. She doesn't know when to stop." He ends it with a chuckle.

"No offence, but the earlier of the statement is true. She is actually my favourite Carson." He eyes me amused. "But I am not in a habit of people joking and playing and trying to make me comfortable, so I didn't know how to react."

He gives me a soft smile but doesn't speak.

"I am going to apologise." With that I stand up and walk towards the seating area. Just when I was about to cross the curtain, I turn to him. He is still sitting on a bed and looking at me. "Thank you for carrying me to the bed."

I do not wait to see his reaction and get out.

Sophia is there with her husband. She feels like she will cry any moment now. While Daniel is sitting with a neutral expression on his face.

I am starting to believe it is his default setting.

Anyway, when Sophia sees me she gets up and rushes towards me. Before she could apologies, I present her my apology.

" I am sorry Sophia, I shouldn't have left like that. I am just not used to people trying to make me happy and comfortable, so I guess I just snapped at you. I am really sorry."

" Hey, I am sorry too." I begin to interject again but she speaks. " I shouldn't have pushed you like that and yeah, do not ever mention about being comfortable or happy, cause that is what you are going to be." He face regains colour and she is beaming again. This woman is something else entirely.

She grabs me by my hand and plops me down on the seat and goes back to hers. Jax comes out and notices the massive smile on his mother's face and small one on mine. He seems at peace.

With that Sophia chats again and continues the entire conversation.

Sometime later, the pilot announces that we are about to land. We all tie our seatbelts.

When I sit back, the sexy voice booms in my ear causing me to be aware of all the surroundings, and leaving me hot and flustered.

I guess Sophia was right about the latter statement.

"Welcome to Italy, Cara."
