章 68: CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT

- KILLIAN -

'Can the dinner be tonight?' Kate's text drops after I send a last text to Hazel.

I promised to clear my schedule for her so I will. 'Definitely.' I text her back. 'Take care of yourself.'

I drop my phone on my desk and roll in my office chair, keeping my eyes on the silver necklace dangling on my finger. Hazel lost this at the pool. I took it off her when I held her in my arms while heading to my car. It's a wonder she doesn't remember losing it, I don't know if I should be offended or not.

I plan to return it to her today, but I also plan to give her a ring. The one I'm staring at right now on my hand, the same hand that holds her necklace. I'm not sure if I want her to be my girlfriend just yet, but this ring definitely seals a lot of things between us.

A sigh escapes my lips and I rest my back on my office chair, swinging a pen in my fingers. My thoughts circulate on the other matters disturbing me.
