As they sat inside the tub, the warm water lapping gently around them, Derek reached for the bottle and poured wine into another glass.
Kira watched him do it and lifted an eyebrow. "You already have two glasses available. Were you expecting me?"
He handed her the glass with a small shrug. "Maybe."
She smiled as they clinked their glasses together and sipped at the same time. For a moment the only sound was the soft clink of glass and the faint splash of water. Kira felt the wine warm her from the inside, but her mind was already racing with questions.
Derek set his glass down and wrapped his arms around her again. "How was your day?"
Kira sighed and took another sip, her thoughts flashing back over the hours.
Kai's mum chasing her out of the room like she was contagious. Maya clinging to her and crying about an invisible storm that terrified her.
