Poor Will. His long lost dad has appeared, and he has no idea how to deal with it. I’ve stayed at his place the last couple of days, but I have to go into the office tomorrow. I really didn’t want to leave him, though. He’s acting like he’s fine about it, but he isn’t. Especially finding out he has a brother. He says he’s going to think things over for a while before deciding what to do about him. As much as he says he hates the man, I think he’s also curious. Who wouldn’t be?

I’m honoured that he’s shared it all with me. I know Maddy was the one who asked me to go over there, but he was so glad to see me. We seem to be moving at warp speed, but I don’t care. I really, really, like him, and I honestly think he might be the one. I feel like a giggly teenager just thinking that, but I can’t help it.

Staying at his house for the last couple of days felt normal. Like it had always been like that. Maddy is gorgeous and sweet, so nice to me, and I think it’s genuine. She asked me after all. Having sex with her across the landing was difficult, but I think we managed to keep quiet! I hope we did. She’s really happy with her new boyfriend, and he seems like a nice boy. Will seems to like him, which says a lot. I wouldn’t want to be him if he ever hurt Maddy, though. Not so sure Will would be as pleasant to him if he did.

When I go into the office tomorrow, I’m going to ask about home working. That way I could stay at Will’s more. I’ve got my laptop and all I need is a good internet connection and maybe an extra screen. I could see him more often then. Shit. He might not even want to. HAHAHA who am I kidding, he’s mad on me – at least I hope he is. I think he is.

God, I need to stop acting like I’m sixteen. Maddy is more grown up than I am!!!
