7am Saturday I get up because I have a hydro course. Steve promised to do eggs for breakfast again, but is too tired to get up. I didn't mind really, I wasn't hungry anyway. I knew he had to be up about 8 though, cos his train back to the Lakes was at 10, so just before I left I took him up a cup of tea and we said goodbye. I checked he still wanted me to go to see him next weekend, and I said I'd understand if he felt that I was some kind of dragging tie to the past. He was definite that this wasn't the case, and told me how much he wants to see me, how much he will miss me.
So then off I went, only asking him to text me when he got to the Lakes so I knew he'd arrived safely.
After the first hydro session I found a text on my mobile asking me to call him, so I did. He told me he'd got the train, was near Lancaster. He was reading my card - I'd sent him a card because he'd moaned the only post he ever got was bills. It was one I'd made myself (I'm a good cardmaker), and I'd written a slightly re-worked version of David Bowie's 'Letter to Hermione' in it. Corny I know, and only ever to be used after great thought and consideration, but almost guaranteed to get your ex back. It's worked on me twice. It's the first time I've tried it.
After the afternoon session I find another text saying thanks for everything, and one asking me to call. I call, and he is back in Coniston, so we have a little chat.
After Doctor Who (did I mention it was BLOODY BRILLIANT!) he texted me to call him again. I did, and he was chatting away, said he'd seen Lauren, that she was off to a party and he was seeing this mate of his, Ricky. They might go and score. I reminded him he's moving into the Hotel tomorrow, and doesn't need to be wrecked. Dunno if I believe him about Lauren. Then he asks me to call back in 2 minutes, which I do. He's with Ricky by this time, and he suddenly says they are being pulled over by the Police. Twits. He says he'll text me later. Not sure if he means tonight, tomorrow or when. Doesn't matter, because I am cool as ice. I need to be chased, not appeased like Stalker Lauren.
