smiled as I walked over to her.

“You need to go back to sleep, my love. It’s way too early for you to be up,” I said as I stroked her

hair.

“I rolled over, and your side of the bed was empty; I didn’t like it,” she pouted.

“I’m sorry, baby, but I have a meeting first thing this morning.”

“I know, and I’ll miss you while you’re gone. I hate being apart from you.”

“Let’s meet for lunch and do some shopping. I’ll have Denny pick you up around noon,” I said as I

brushed my lips against hers.

“That sounds good; I can’t wait,” she said as a smile spread across her face.

I couldn’t resist her smile, and I hated leaving her. I looked at the clock, and I had 15 minutes

before I had to leave. I unbuttoned my pants and took them off.

“What are you doing?” Ellery smiled.

“Getting ready to have sex with you, but I only have about 15 minutes, so we have to be quick,” I

said as I took off my shirt.

“Hurry up and get that fine ass of yours in here,” she said as she patted my side of the bed.

Needless to say, I was late for my meeting.

The purchase of the Chicago building was finalized, and I was a happy man. Everything in my life

at the moment was perfect. I missed Ellery, so I decided to have Denny pick me up before her. He

pulled up to the building, and Ellery was waiting outside. She looked amazing standing there in black

leggings, a long black sweater, and black high boots. She’s perfection, and she’s mine. Denny got out

and opened the door for her. She slid in the seat and smiled when she saw me. I reached over and

kissed her on the lips.

“Hey, baby, you look gorgeous,” I smiled.

“I thought we were meeting at your office,” she said.

“I missed you, and I couldn’t wait.”

She wrapped her arms around my neck as she kissed me. “I’m happy you’re here now because I

couldn’t last another minute without you.”

As we were on our way to lunch, my phone rang. I pulled it out from my pocket, and it was Ashlyn.

I ignored the call and put my phone back in my pocket. Why the hell is she calling me?

“Aren’t you going to answer that?” Ellery asked.

“No, it’s just Paul. We’re almost at the restaurant, so I’ll call him later.”

We had a great lunch and enjoyed some shopping afterwards. I bought Ellery some new clothes,

and being the stubborn woman that she is, she tried to put up a fight when I paid for them, but I won

that battle. We left the store and headed down the crowded street to a nearby Starbucks. We were

walking hand in hand when I ran into Sarah.

“Hello, Connor. How are you?” she asked as she cocked her head.

“Sarah, I’m good. How have you been?” I nervously asked.

She eyed Ellery up and down, and her eyes instantly looked at our interlaced fingers. Sarah

extended her hand to Ellery.

“Hi, I’m Sarah, a family friend of Connor’s,” she smiled.

“Hello, I’m Ellery, Connor’s girlfriend.”

Sarah looked at me for a moment and then again at Ellery. “Well it was nice seeing you again,

Connor, and it was wonderful to meet you, Ellery,” she said. Sarah leaned into me and whispered in

my ear, “She’s perfect for you.” She kissed me on the cheek, winked, and walked away. I let out a

sigh of relief and squeezed Ellery’s hand. We started to walk, but Ellery abruptly stopped behind me.

I turned around and looked at her.

“I don’t ever want to know what you did with her or who she was to you,” she said.

“Ellery, she’s…” I started to say.

“Connor, she’s a family friend,” she smiled as she led me through the doors of Starbucks.

Thanksgiving had arrived, and we spent the day with my family. It was good to bring Ellery to the

home I grew up in, and to meet my family. My mom and dad took to her immediately, as did my sister.

I didn’t know how to bring up Ellery’s illness. I was going to wait until after Thanksgiving when it

was just my mom, dad, and Cassidy, but I didn’t have to wait thanks to Aunt Sadie. My mom always

said that Aunt Sadie was born with a gift. I never believed it, and I just chalked it up to her being

crazy. I walked in the entrance of the kitchen, and I overheard Aunt Sadie grilling Ellery about her

cancer. Ellery was trying to explain to them about her first time when she was 16. She was very

nervous. I felt bad for her, and it was my fault. If I would have told my family about it in the first

place, Ellery wouldn’t be in this position.

I cleared my throat and walked over to Ellery. I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed her

on the head. “Her cancer came
