“I’m not the only one that they expect a lot from, Axel. I appreciate your concern, I really do, but they’re not giving me more to do or asking more of me than they are any of the other new sisters. They went through it all themselves before. It’s rites of passage and tradition. I’m okay.” Reggie rose on her tip toes to press a quick soft kiss to his lips before sitting down on her bed and toeing off her shoes to try on the pair that he’d bought her. She grinned up at him. “They’re perfect!”

He sighed. “I know that but I dislike that they ask so much of all of you and it makes me notice it more because I am your boyfriend.” He pointed out. “I dont care that it is tradition…if they had a tradition that you all had to jump off the roof, would you?” He asked knowing that she wouldn’t and it was a stupid question, though he smiled and kissed her cheek as the shoes looked perfect on her. “Stunning, they suit you…just as I knew they would…Wear them tomorrow on our date.”
