It was a long, four and a half hour drive, and now we had a three and a half hours ferry ride, but I didn’t care because we were free until tomorrow morning. Imogen was covering for me if my mum called her. Noah said he’d asked Chris to do the same for him. Neither of them knew where we were, we’d just told them we were spending time together and they had to cover. Im was too busy telling me all about how I was going to lose my virginity to bother with any other details anyway. Little did she know that I’d lost it on Wednesday. It was perfect, Noah was perfect, and I felt even closer to him than I did before. Mum didn’t take long before she’d agreed to let me stay at Imogen’s for the night, but they never did. I was pretty sure they’d be glad to have me out of the house. Dad had said the space would do us good and he was right. We needed to not be under each other’s feet for a day and then maybe when I went home tomorrow we could talk and sort everything out. I was ready for things to be normal with them now.
