Robyn's POV

I was getting ready to meet Laura at the 95 Street Station. It was important we had a talk

The weather had got slightly chilly since I'd got up. It was definitely a B&B (beanie and boots) day.

After putting my boots, hat and duffel coat on I started to walk to the station. The wind caused my eyes to water and before long tears were streaming down my face.

I wiped them away with my gloved hands enjoying the ASMR of my boot heels hitting the sidewalk.

I reached the entrance to the station and went down tapping my metro card to enter. I had a quick look at my face in my hand mirror just to see that I didn't look like I'd been crying and waited for Laura.

She soon arrived and I tenderly gave her a kiss. After her godmother had signed her witness form, she got a train back up the line and I lead Laura out of the station.

'Don't be cross with me, but I had a talk with Tristan last night' I said. 'He was worried about you and I am too'

My eyes filled with tears again, but I wasn't sure if it was emotion or the wind this time.

'We never sat down together and discussed this arrangement we have properly and we both want to. We don't want to lose you Laura'

Tears started to run down my cheeks again and Laura started to cry too.

'I don't want to lose you either she sobbed. I gave her a hug.

'Come on' I said wiping away my tears. 'Let's go meet Tristan and discuss this properly'

William's POV:

After a good dinner and a lighthearted conversation, we went to bed early, I guess we were all tired.
Anna and I got in bed and she kept looking at me, as if expecting me to talk, I can only guess she wants to talk about the crying incident earlier. I evade the direct: "Feel free to ask, no secrets and no half truths, what do you want to know?"...

Robyn's POV

'Sorry Tris' I apologised as another gust of wind caused yet more tears to stream down my face. 'It's just the wind I promise'

I wiped my face with my gloved hands and we all walked to a nearby cafe and sat down. I took off my beanie and took out my hair from it's ponytail as it was slightly loose. After tying it back into a ponytail, we all ordered a drink each and then me and Tristan explained what we had discussed to Laura.

'We thought we'd do alternate weeks' I said. 'You've seen a lot of me this week, so Tristan can spend time with you next week and I'll have the week after

Laura looked much happier with this.

'That would be fine' she said

Jarrod told me he wouldn't mind if we chose our wedding date on the day we started dating. I mean I really didn't have a better date in mind and it didn't look like Jarrod did either. He also said he wanted to start wedding planning right away. I guess he was just as excited as I was.

Jarrod suggested starting with a guest list and going from there. Get the easy details figured out right away then move onto the bigger more time consuming ones.

"I'm not sure if I'd rather a large wedding or a more intimate one. I really haven't had much time to think about it, but I think we should start by both writing down some potential guests we'd like and then forming a semi-final list off that. That will determine the size of the wedding. I mean I don't want to leave anyone out butif we can only come up with a small list that's fine too." I said excitedly hoping Jarrod liked my idea.

As I waited for Jarrod's responses I looked at my watch and realized it was getting a bit later and motioned to Jarrod that we should be getting downstairs to breakfast with our guests.

Anna's pov:

As we were lying in bed next to each other i couldn't help looking at William inquisitively. He then asked me nervously what I wanted to know about the events of earlier tonight. Without even saying it I knew he was talking about his crying incident. I was surprised he was being so open about it but I figured I'd better get all my curiosity out before he changed his mind.

"You don't have to answer me if you don't want but I'm just curious where/when you got so in tune with your emotions. I mean up until the other day I've never even seen you cry and it looked like you were barely comfortable enough to break down with just me. Now today you cried in front of 3 people and even let them wipe your tears. Don't get me wrong, I love your new emotional openness but I'm just curious is all. I mean did something happen that led you to being ok with your emotions? I mean of course its ok, and even sometimes preferred/necessary for you to cry but what was it for you that made you feel like you could finally open up. Who or what do I have to thank for this new you." I blurted out quickly but rather quietly so Jarrod and Camilla wouldn't hear us from across the hall.

I didn't know if William was willing to answer all if my questions/curiosities but I fugured I'd put it out there. I didn't mean to ramble so much though so I just sat there patiently waiting to see how much information he was really willing to indulge me with.
