I don't mind at all if you email me. I'm glad someone shares a passion for writing as much as I do. Though that book is the only one I've written.

To be completely honest it's the only one I CAN write.

I stared at the computer screen.

Think of something smart to say, and quickly.

She'd emailed me back within minutes, and I didn't want her to lose interest and walk away. I wanted to keep her glued to her computer or her phone.

I wanted to keep her glued to me.

I opened a new email.

To be honest I haven't had the chance to read past the Prologue, but as you can probably tell I'm entranced by it already. How come you haven't written anything else?

And may I ask if you've given this manuscript to any other publishing houses?

One minute.

Two minutes.

Three minutes.

The Prologue is my favourite part of the book. It means an awful lot to me, and I suppose the answer to your question, you've just read. I've never felt enough drive to write anything else.

And no, I've only sent it to you.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

Normally authors prefer the end of their book, rather than the beginning. It's rather odd to find someone so different. If the book means so much to you, should I assume it's slightly autobiographical?

And good. I'm glad.

I took a breath as I sent the email. I was pushing it, I knew I was.

But I couldn't stop myself.

This book meant a lot to her.

My words meant a lot to her.

Two raindrops baby. Two raindrops.

I ached to be able to say those words to her again.

My computer bleeped not even a minute later and I clicked the email desperately.

The book is basically my life so far. Of course, it's told from my point of view, and I never thought my life was so eventful, but it actually felt good to write everything down on paper. It felt like I could vent properly.

And no, I can't prefer the end of my book. It isn't finished yet. Well hopefully not.

I stared, and then I stared some more.

No Bella. It's not finished yet. But I'll finish it with you.

I'll be your ending.
