I Found You
“A man hailed us from the picking up point at the airport. The weather was icy cold, and piles of dirt-stained snow were heaped at the edges of the road, where it had been salted and ploughed aside. The sky above us was starkly white, threatening more snow. The man who’d called was obviously Jason’s dad. He was the same height and build and coloring as Jason, just older. My heart thundered as Jason moved forward, taking my case from my hand as well as carrying his own. I hung back a little behind him. I was more scared than I ever remembered being. I’d never wanted to make a good impression before. I never normally cared. But now I was terrified I was going to do something stupid and let Jason down. In the week since he’d suggested this, my anxiety had been spreading through my veins like a drug, and Jason knew it, he’d kept me busy all the time, we’d gone for dinner a week ago on the Monday, rather than go to the club, it was as if he’d sensed I couldn’t have faced the noise.
