Jude pulled back from our kiss and looked at me in concern. “What’s wrong, baby?” I took in a deep breath and smiled up at him. “Nothing’s wrong. Everything is so right. I wished for this, for you. Thank you for making my dreams a reality.” “And I plan on spending the rest of our lives making all your dreams come true,” he said before kissing me once again.

Callie was my reasoning; she was my balance. Whenever she was near, things just felt like they were as they should be. The kids loved her and I adored her. Looking back on it now, I can’t believe I actually thought I could ignore my feelings for her. Thank God Katelynn had other ideas.

I knew in that moment that I would never be the same. Callie was changing something inside me. She was giving me something I needed, yet had no idea just how much until then. She gave me hope that even in all the impending darkness of my life, there was still good. Callie was my light.

My mind kept going back to the fact that I kissed Callie. I took that step, not her. I knew Callie had feelings for me, but I’d hidden mine for her. I put on a good show when it came to keeping my distance and hiding my desire for her, but it was only getting harder. Callie was now intertwined in my life, and the longer she was around, the more I let myself imagine her being there forever.

It had been three days since I left feeling like an idiot for thinking Jude and I could ever have a relationship. Now here I was with a car full of food my mother had insisted I bring them. It would be just my luck if he slammed the door in my face the moment he saw me.

I knew we were all thinking the same things—worry about Jude and his family living here, and guilt that we hadn’t known. A sick feeling ran through my veins as I thought back to last night when I dropped close to five hundred dollars on shoes and a new matching purse. I swallowed past the lump in my throat, and my vision blurred with unshed tears.
