in an open relationship 2

Two week later.... Ethan and I are on our way to Elsta country state for my Dalfi, Caitlyn unblocked me yesterday to text me the location that she picked with my dad , they decided it was best to go local , it is a three hour drive from our place.

We stopped by Andrew's for Ethan's one on one session since it's a Saturday , I'm curious about what they talked about but I can't ask, my guess is that it went good judging by Ethan's aura , he seems light , there's this feeling of freedom that a person gets after sharing their feelings with someone else ,I felt it all the time when I was doing it with Austin, every burden that I felt on my shoulder would magically be like chaff  after talking about it .

I've never felt so anxious about my dalfi before, the only difference with this one is Ethan .

" Is something wrong ?" He
glances at me and focuses back on the road.

" No" , I sense his doubt," I don't know , I feel nervous all of a sudden, I think it's because I haven't attended a dalfi with you in ages , I'm nervous about how it's going to go ".

He nods to himself," you worry too much " he says sternly.

" Probably ".

"  it will be fine " he says assuredly.

Andrew's words begin to echo in my mind, the seed she planted is growing by the second , now every morning when I see Ethan I start to ponder on what secret he could be hiding from me , Andrew said it with so much certainty that he is hiding something that only he can reveal and no matter how hard I try to think about it, I keep coming to Sarah ,that's the only story that makes sense .

" Who do you think picked the place ?" I ask.

" Caitlyn" he answers," your dad always follows you two around he could not have been the one who chose the place ".

" My guess as well " , internally I'm kicking myself for not asking him about his session.

" What is it ?" He asks again.

" Your session. how was it ?" I fail to suppress myself.

He remains quiet.

" Huh?" I push for an answer.

" It was fine , I never asked you about yours ".

" But you can , why are you not ?" I shrug.

" Will you honestly tell me everything you two discussed?" He asks.

I sink into my seat thinking about my entire session," no " .

He smirks ," then let's leave things as they are , I don't think we are supposed to talk about our sessions anyway".

The rest of the road is filled with nothing but silence. Caitlyn texts me to let me know that everyone is by the lake and we should use the second gate when we arrive.

" They've already started the party without me ... Caitlyn says we should use the second gate " .

" Sure ".

" I wonder what kind of a country house they rented , I hope there are horses for us to ride ".

" They do , I looked up their page online".

" Really?" I beam with joy ," that's great , I haven't hopped on a horse since the day mine was confiscated during my dad's arrest ".

" What about the Seine event we attended in England?" .

" That was for show , it wasn't something I did for fun , it was for the media and the charity we were running for ".

" Good thing Monday is a public holiday so you can ride the horses all you want ".
