Did she really not believe him...? He felt a sudden urge to tell her everything that Rafe had told him. The he knew everything and understood if she was scared.
But he didn't. He didn't want her to know that he knew. If she had wanted him to know already she would have told him herself. But he wanted her to know that she didn't need to be afraid anymore.
"How would you like to get away from the castle, and magic, and everything this summer?" he asked. "I can't promise it'll be super exciting, but I'm sure it would be fun. That dream you've never had about traveling the country with a muggle family will come true." he said with a cheesy smile.
He took her hand. "You don't have to decide now though. On anything. And both things -- or either -- stand whatever you decide."
Had Carter just invited her to spend the summer with him...and his
muggle family?
Marilyn was stunned. No one had ever really asked her to spend vacation with them...and he was telling her how much he still cared for her. Her face reflected her shock.
"You really want me to go with you and your family?"
She was a little disbelieving...A lot of things had happened to her...and she just lacked trust.
"You aren't just doing this out of pity, are you?" The blonde gave him a playful look, masking her suspicion.
"This is a big step, you know?"
