“Cal, please, I need to talk to you about Derek.” Was I really going to tell him everything? “What about Derek?” I could tell by the look on his face that he misunderstood. “Is he back, what’s going on?” “NO. That’s not what I meant. I can’t marry you when there are still so many things you don’t know.” “I told you it doesn’t matter. I don’t need to know what happened. I love you, no matter what happened.” I reached for him, but he pulled away. “It does matter. Can’t we talk about this later, at home?” He was wounded. I’d rejected him in front of our families. I had no idea he was thinking about marriage already. I mean maybe I should’ve figured it out. This was entirely my fault. He had turned his back to me and when I walked around to face him, there were tears in his eyes. My heart snapped at the sight of it. I tried to touch him but he brushed me off.
