Chapter 378: Trust

Alanis

I wake up in the morning and he is not next to me.

Okay, I don't want to drag this clingy attitude to a new day. The sky is bright, it is a new day and I am happy. I don't want my emotions to make me a whiny little bitch this morning.

I sit up on the bed and there is a note on the bedside table.

I grab it and his squiggly handwriting says. Went for a run. Will be back soon. Hugs and kisses.

His message is vague and very weird. It just reminds me of how weird he has been acting since last night. I know he is keeping something from me and I don't know how I feel about that. there is a knock on the door, which makes me get up from the bed begrudgingly. I walk over to the door and see Rus on the other side of the door with a smile on his face.  I raise a brow because it is too early for him to be here in my house.
