 It hasn’t been long enough to tell you that you’re my new home, haha, I know that
 
 I just meant to say that you’ve become a part of my routine
 
 And it would feel weird not talking to you in the evening
 
 That’s all

 I knew what you meant
 
 I was going to say “I’m glad I brought you a sense of home while you were away” but thought I’d be overly assuming my role in your life
 
 A beat passes. She’s not a slow reader, so she’s likely thinking about how to respond. Which means there’ssomethingto consider, or, consideration to be had. Maybe it’s all just a matter of keeping things amicable and sweet until we get to the thing that brought us here—our shared kink—and maybe it’s genuine. Still, the beat she takes before responding has my heart working overtime behind my ribs.
 
 Finally, her actionable dots appear.
 
 Then...

 I didn’t want to go away for work. I usually never do. And the trip was just far enough to make it worth the hotel, but not far enough to make me feel like I’m actually away from home.
 
 Having you on Veiled all night… Well…
 
 Talking to you reminds me of home
 
 So I don’t think you are overly assuming your role in my life

 The edges of my vision blur from how quickly my heart is forcing blood through my body. I lick my lips, and stroke my hand through my messy, bed-ridden hair. The coffee pot beeps, indicating it’s through brewing.

 I rushed through work yesterday afternoon, anxious to get home
 
 Anxious to talk with you
 
 Her dots appear, but nerves fill me as I wonder how she’s going to reply, so before she can, I type and send another message quickly.

 Coffee’s done. Pouring my first three-cup mug now.

 Am I the only one you’re talking to on Veiled?
 
 My eyes flash to the empty message queue. Would I havelied to her had I been chatting with others? I hope not, but fortunately, no one else is in my queue. She’s been the only one.

 Yes
 
 Am I the only one you’re talking to on Veiled?
