Hi, Trent. I know it’s still the middle of the night where you are, but I wanted to email you straight away. Logan just finished things between him and me. He said it wasn’t working out and I agreed. It truly hasn’t been. We’ve neither of us made any time for each other, and while I much prefer the idea of having a boyfriend who is right here at Compass Court, I spend most of my time thinking about someone who isn’t. I know you have issues with the idea that I was going out with Logan, but I’m hoping that the fact that he was the one who ended it might make a difference. You don’t need to feel guilty about anything. It’s not like I dumped him to be with you. But I wanted to.
There, I’ve said it. I’ve made my feelings really clear, and you don’t have to read between the lines in any way. I’m going to class now, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you feel the way I think you do. Could you let me know sooner rather than later?

P.S. My parents are asking if I’m still set on going to Whistler for half-term break.

Wow, Ali, that was pretty direct for you.
I suppose the great thing about email it’s much easier to be honest without feeling as embarrassed as we would be in person.
So, here’s the deal. Yes, obviously I’m into you. I always have been. But I do need to talk to Logan first. I can’t say I’m sorry about you and Logan, especially as I have a feeling he’s going to be just fine. But let me sort that out and then we’ll talk about how we can make it work. Long distance isn’t ideal, but seeing you at half-term would be amazing and we’ll work from there. There’s always Easter after that.
Forget this email thing. I’ll call you later, I can’t wait to actually hear your voice again.
All my love,
Trent
