Good-looking if you like the Secret Service type. You know law-abiding protector of women and children. That's all fine but I can never tell what he's thinking. Which drives me crazy.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>He insists on coming along to do damage control. As if accidentally wandering into certain areas is breaking and entering. I may be an emotional artist but William shouldn't dismiss my investigative skills yet.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>William is definitely my opposite and if there's one takeaway from my parents' divorce it's that opposites might attract but it doesn't last. But detecting with William is kind of fun-and fluttery. I definitely can't trust these feelings or can I? However this caper ends I think this may be more than a crush. </span></p><p> </p>
