Chapter 63: 63.

Just as I thought. They had a lot of questions for us at the conference meeting mostly about our relationship with each other. Derek was well prepared for these questions. He did if and but, he didn't stutter not a single hesitation. It was like he had practice the questions with them beforehand but that wasn't the case he was just good at handling these sort of thing.

But for me all of this was overwhelming. I didn't like the attention. Derek answered most of the questions that were directed. The ones that made me feel uncomfortable. It was like being attacked but each time he would come to my aid.

The whole process was exhausting. To not buckle and panic under all that pressure. The reporters are like vultures. What if Derek wasn't there? They would have eaten me a live.

I could finally breathe now that it's over but I could only relax all the nerves and tension in my body once we were in the car going home. I completely hated it.
