over to the window.
       ’I have been trying to imagine a view like this for so long, somewhere I could see everything. Watching real life, how it should be, you know the hustle and bustle and I finally get the opportunity but its so much better because I get to share it with you and I’m very grateful’ he smiled and squeezed my hand.
       ‘Well like I said it was fate.’
    I wasn ’t sure about that but things did seem like they were falling into place. I wasn’t sure whether it was a good idea to get closer to him, but it was like I was being pulled toward this man. He was everything I could imagine wanting, but could I really? I felt so broken, could I really allow that to seep into someone as good as him? Did he deserve that? Or was I just putting too much weight into the fact that I felt safe with him, maybe I was confusing that with something more. What I did know for sure is I had never experienced feelings like this and they were making me feel dizzy about a guy I didn’t even know.

    Chapter 4
    Summer
                                                                         
       The next few days went by in a blur, we seemed to have been in the States for months although it was coming up to a month, I had wondered about when we would leave to go back to the UK but decided we could stay for a while longer, making the most of everything this amazing city had to show us. Mason was a constant, always popping in and bringing over movies to watch. We talked about so many things, he was so easy to be around. I was starting to look forward to him spending time with us. Lily began to love Mason ’s visits and I worried about how it would affect her when we did have to leave but pushed it away for now.
       That night when everybody had gone to bed, we sat watching another one of his movie choices which seemed to be more romantic than usual, making me think he was choosing them for me rather than himself, it was at that point he decided to start asking me some more serious questions, which I ’m not sure I was prepared for.
       ‘Summer? I turned to look straight at him and he had a really serious look on his face
       ’Yeah.’ I said
       ‘I know you said that you never loved your husband but….have you ever been in love?’
    Oh My God, did he really just ask me that?
       ‘No…. I have never been in love, I’m not even sure I would understand the feeling, why, have you?’ What, why did I ask him that.
       ‘No, I don’t think I have, I have known many women, but I have never found ‘the one’ I would want to settle down with. I kind of always hoped that when I found the right person I would know the instant we met,’ that’s a sweet sentiment I thought ‘what do you think about that? Do you think that you know when it’s the right person?’ Oh God, what to say
       ‘Umm, I have no idea, I would like to think that falling in love is just like its described in a romance novel, you know, when you can’t think of anything but that person, and you get butterflies inside, but I have nothing to compare that to.’ He sat staring at me then carried on.
       ’I know how much he hurt you but do you think you would ever be open to falling in love?’ Wow really, I can’t believe he just asked me that.
       ‘I would love to meet the right person, somebody I could trust with all of me, including the broken parts, but most of all they would have to love Lily, like she was their own. I’m just not sure that it’s on the cards for me, I mean I wouldn’t have a clue where to start and I’m not sure I would want anybody to come near me and see how disgusting I am.’ His eyes bulged and his frown seemed to radiate anger.
       ‘I can’t believe you said that, is that….is that really what you think of yourself? You’re…. amazing Summer, your kind, funny, loving and very beautiful, any man would be happy to have you,
