Chapter 225 Old Feelings

Mia’s POV

“Not formally?” Scarlett’s eyebrows shot up as she set down her wine glass. “What exactly does that mean, Mia?

I pushed the remnants of my tiramisu around the plate, suddenly finding the deconstructed layers fascinating.’ We’ve talked about the future in general terms. He’s mentioned ‘when we live together’ a few times.”

“That’s not a proposal,” Scarlett said flatly. “That’s real estate planning.”

I laughed despite myself. “Not everyone needs the grand gesture, Scar.”

“My brother is the king of grand gestures! Remember when he flew that string quartet to Hong Kong just to play at the opening of his gallery?”

“That was for work,” I reminded her.

“Still,” she insisted, leaning forward with that intense look I knew so well. “Four years is a long time, Mia. You two are practically married already-he has his own drawer at your place, he cooks dinner with the twins, he’s teaching them how to use compasses, for god’s sake.”

I smiled at the memory of yesterday’s “expedition” through Central Park, the twins clutching their compasses with deadly seriousness as Thomas taught them to navigate by landmarks.

“I know you’re happy,” Scarlett continued, her voice softening. “I see it every time you’re together. And as Thomas’s sister, I can tell you he’s never been happier either.”

“We are happy,” I agreed, feeling a familiar warmth at the thought of him. “What we have works.”

“But?” Scarlett prompted, always able to detect the unspoken.

“No buts,” I said, perhaps too quickly.

Scarlett nodded slowly. “You know, it’s funny. I always thought Thomas only started having feelings for you after he came back from Hong Kong four years ago. When you needed someone most.”

“That’s what I thought too,” I admitted.

“But that’s not true, is it?” Scarlett leaned in, her eyes sparkling with the delight of someone who’d figured out a long-standing mystery. “Thomas told me last month that he’s had feelings for you since college.”
