Tanis' response made Sinead's heart do a flip. She had been fully aware of how differently she had treated Tanis, seeking out her company whenever it felt appropriate. It was thrilling to know Tanis had picked up on it, the reply more loaded than Sinead could have ever hoped for.<br/>"I do," she confirmed, eyes on the road ahead. "I didn't expect you to notice."<br/>Sinead had a gut feeling about Tanis, but the question was hard to ask; the response even harder. She knew Tanis was in her life on limited time, her court date only weeks ahead. It felt overwhelming, feeling like it was a question of either being too-forward or accept Tanis' disappearance.<br/>Sinead's eyes drifted to the mirrors, never properly at Tanis. She didn't know how to go on.<br/>"It's a right up here, isn't it?" she instead asked, having a idea of where Tanis might live, her tone comfortable even at off-topic question. In reality, Sinead's heart was racing.
