I know I need to tell him what’s going on, but with his team playing the Devils in a four game series, starting tonight, I decided to wait. I don’t want anything else affecting Kessler’s game, especially since he seemed distracted in his last game and played like shit.

Sighing, I sit up and grab my phone. Opening my text thread to the girls I type out a message.

So apparently with my stress at an all time high, Hurricane Lucy hit the household last night.

Kara

Uh oh, what did you do?

Marie

Not again…

Yep, I decided my kitchen wasn’t satisfactory and rearranged EVERYTHING in it, put my phone in the fridge, turned as many lights on as possible, then went out back and watered every living thing.

I yawn, exhausted from just reading everything I did last night. Finding out Hudson unknowingly met his father has really sent me into a tailspin. Maybe if I tell Kessler I have something I need to talk to him about after he plays the Devils, it’ll help release some of the stress.

But it’ll stress him out not knowing.

Ugh.

Kara

Girl, WTF, you need to talk to Kessler, this is eating you alive.

Marie

I agree with Kara, this isn’t healthy.

But he’s playing the Devils TONIGHT what if it messes with his game.

Your weirdness is already messing with his game. *sigh* look I wasn’t going to say anything, but he texted me and he’s really worried about you.

I read the text, guilt eating me up and swallowing me whole. I knew he noticed something was off about me. I’ve been so wrapped up in figuring out when would be a good time to tell him, and wondering if he’ll look at me differently, that I didn’t even think about what it was already doing to Kessler.

Shit, what did he say

Kara

I’m not going to tell you what we discussed. I’m just going to tell you he really loves you Lu, and you need to be honest with him. He WILL NOT judge you for this.

Marie

I agree Luce, I’ve known both of you for a while and you’re letting your past and fear of rejection affect the amazing relationship you have now.

Kara
