“You should go and get that, bro.” Zane jumped up and pulled me up.

“Who is it?”

“Open the door and go and see.” He gave me a quick hug and walked away. “I’m going to go up and see if Lucky wants any help reading Skylar her bedtime story.”

“Okay.” I nodded at him and walked to the door slowly, my heart was pounding as I opened the door.

“Hi,” she said with a tight smile.

“Hi,” I replied, and opened the door wider to let her in. “It’s good to see you, Robin.”

“Zane said you wanted to talk? That it was an emergency?”

“Yes.” I nodded, grateful that my brother had stepped in for me once again. “Yes, I’d love to talk. There are some things I want to tell you.”

“Okay.” She looked at me with hurt still in her eyes, and I knew that she was mad at me. I knew that she was upset that I hadn’t confided in her earlier. I knew that I had cracked her veneer and it broke my heart.

“First off, I want to ask you a question.” I took a deep breath. “Do you think that we could start again, from the beginning?” She looked at me, unspeaking, and I continued. “This time I want to get it right. This time I need to get it right. I know you’re mad at me and you have every right to be, but I like you and I really want this to work. Please just tell me yes or no. Can we start again?”

Her eyes looked me over for a few minutes before she finally spoke. “Yes, Noah. We can start again.”
