Using my random scrolling method I have come to the part where Ellen finally asks Henry to stay the night. However, before he accepts the invitation, he wants to know what made her offer it; to know that it's what she really wants and not just an impulse brought on by a tragic event earlier in the day. Ellen speaks first.
"...You’re important to me and I want to be with you. I don’t want to spend another night wondering if you’re missing me the way I’m missing you. It’s not about sympathy or comfort. It’s about you and me. I want us to be an “us” and I want to make love to you…tonight.” She stared at him expectantly.
“Well you don’t have to ask me twice.”
That's my six for the week. I look forward to reading yours. :)
