I hate that you can't be here. I miss you

I miss you too. But because I left so suddenly, I now have to face the wrath of Marie and Barbara

How are things? How are you?

I'm ready to get out of here. Kathlyn is here to keep up appearances. I'm wishing she were you right now so that I could kiss you.

I'm sorry. I wish I could be there to, but it would be too suspicious if I stayed longer than a day after you woke up. Speaking of, have you talked to Emily yet?

I haven't. Between mum and dad, nurses and Kathlyn, I haven't seen any of my siblings today. It's kind of nice, actually. I don't think I'm ready to have that conversation with her yet.

How are you feeling about her knowing? I know we haven't had the opportunity to talk about it yet.

I'm okay. I'm not as worried about the reactions of my siblings, more about those of my parents. I know my siblings would support me. I can't figure out where my dad stands on LGBTQ+ people though.

Whatever happens, I'll be with you for it all

Thank you. When can I see you again?

From: Corey

I'll be back in London on Friday. Marie needed extra hands at the bakery. Since I left so suddenly on Sunday, Drew had to fill in for me so I'm working the days she used to fill in for me.

Two more days. I don't know if I can miss you that long.

From: Corey

I'm sorry Boo, but you'll have to survive without me a little bit longer. Plus, you have to start getting used to it, my classes start on Monday again

To: Corey
Sent at: 11:55 AM
I'm the prince. I'm sure I could pull you out of class if I wanted to

To: Corey
Sent at: 11:55 AM
Or if I needed you for an important matter...;)

From: Corey
Sent at: 11:56 AM
Behave yourself. I'll bring you those doughnuts you love so much if you can keep it in your pants

To: Corey
Sent at: 11:56 AM
Whatever do you mean? I'm innocent

From: Corey
Sent at: 11:56 AM
As innocent as I am straight, yeah
