Like all things we enjoy in life, they come to an end. And that's just something you have to accept. I liked the spa. I liked being in our own little utopia. I liked being away from our friends, temporarily. And I loved being with Jay, and just Jay without interruption. It was like being at the lake house again. Us time.

Now we're driving back to cherry tree having stopped off several times for food and toilets. Approaching cherry tree I've decided will not remind me any more of Jacob and the pain I feel in my body from him. After all we cannot just buy a new mansion every time I have a bad experience. This is my home. This is my sanctuary and it will not be ruined by him.

I still haven't switched my phone on. I'm not willing to, in fact I might push it off until tomorrow at university.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WaGtDlFLS
We drive through the grounds and I take in everything around me, the trees and the sound of the birds. The smell of honeysuckle and freesia. I look at Jay he's pushed his blonde hair back scruffily. He looks all man in his blue jeans and white t-shirt. I sigh, he's wonderful.

As I glance at the large circular water fountain I tell myself that I'm not ignoring the fact that I've just been through something truly horrible, I am just choosing to see the good in my current situation.

He parks up and heads to get my door. I don't necessarily wait for him to get there but I don't rush either, I like to give him his moments. Deep down Jay is romantic. He doesn't hide it, he enjoys making me feel loved and adored. And he does it well, so very well.

We head into our place, cherry tree and I mentally erase the events of the last couple of nights from my memory. No more thinking about it all. I sigh and head into the heart of our place. The kitchen.

I whip up some olives and pasta and make Jay a coffee. He waltzes in from unpacking the bags and looks at me smiling.
