The Ups and Downs of Life ( Chapter 3)
Abigail Weston felt like she couldn't focus on anything else but David. However, she still felt that she wasn't ready to sleep with him. Every time David brought up the subject, she would change it. Abigail wasn't used to having someone around, someone caring for her like David did. Many times, she has thought about doing the " wild thing" with him, but she ws afraid to tell him she was till a virgin. What to do? It was a hard decision to make and it ws frustrating. Abigail sat in Angel Square and stared up at the sky.
" How do I tell him?" Abigail said, " Will he understand?"
" Who will understand what?" she heard.
Abigail just turned around to see David.
" David!" Abigail exclaimed, " You scared me."
" Sorry," David said, " Tell me what you were talking about. Otherwise I may think you don't trust me."
" I don't know if you'll understand," Abigail said, " You are older and have more experience in the relationship department."
" So," David said.
" David," Abigail said, " I don't know how to tell you."
" Just say it," David said sitting besides her and holding her hand.
" I want to take this slow," Abigail said, " I love being with you, but please don't pressure me. I'm still a virgin."
David blinked his eyes, " Now I'm startled," David said, " You're kidding right?"
" No," Abigail said, " I'm serious. I had so many priorities before, my education for one. I wanted to be established first."
David just looked away from her and got up.
" My guess is," Abigail said, " You don't like it."
David said nothing and walked furthur away. Abigail then got up and went the other way, leaving David all alone.
Days went by and now it was Abigail who wouldn't talk to him.
David was trying to understand Abigail and get her to turst him again. He admitted to himself that Abigail Weston was the best thing that he found. When it came to her, David was all tied up in knots. Abigail and David became friends since the moment they met at Llanview Airport and now he might end up losing her for good.
A few hours later David went to go see Abigail at her apartment, but she wasn't there, but he turned around only to run right into her.
" David," Abigail said.
" I'm sorry," David said, " I do understand and I believe you. It was just hard to take it. May I take you to dinner?"
Abigail then blinked her eyes and smiled, " I forgive you and yes, I would love to. Dinner, dancing, music. Make it perfect."
" Is that the way you want it?" David asked.
" Yes," Abigail said.
" Then meet me at the Palace in one hour," David said.
" I'll be there," Abigail said, " Thank you."
Abigail went back into her apartment and sighed, would she actually go through with it? Was she ready for that step? Abigail wasn't so sure now, it depended on how perfect the night went.
