Lucy eyed her room mate,"You seem to like him, he seems to like you. What's unfair about me inviting him over?"
"The fact that you didn't check with me first! Maybe I'm not ready for him to be in our house," she sank into a chair,"Because I think.........he's the one.................. in my dreams."
"Wait, what? The man you're on the boat with? You think it's Ryan?"
"It sounds crazy, I know", she shook her head,"Luc, every time he touches me, I get these weird flashes behind my eyes. It's like an electricity between us. Plus, he hates the water, I hate boats. It just sort of falls in place."
"Penny, I'm sorry, I didn't know", she took her friend's hand,"I can call him, tell him not to come. What do you want me to do?"
"No, it would be rude to un-invite him. I just don't know if I am ready to be alone with him."
"It'll be okay", she gave her hand a squeeze,"Go get changed and if he gets here I'll keep him entertained.
"Thanks," she sighed standing up. It was only dinner right? She could muster up enough conversation to get through. The truth was she had been avoiding Ryan and it wasn't right to do that to him. He hadn't done anything wrong, but knowing that he may be the one in her dreams brought out a fear and in some ways an excitement in her as well. She didn't want to think about that until she had had a chance to go through more sessions with Dr.Raymond. She changed into jeans and a black button down shirt. Running a brush through her hair, she looked and the mirror and felt she looked presentable. She opened her door and could hear two voices drifting in from the living room,"He's here", she whispered to herself. She took a deep breath and placed a smile on her face.

"Penny", Ryan stood up feeling as if the air had suddenly left the room.
"How are you Ryan?", she smiled.
"I am well, thank you. I haven't gotten the chance to see you recently."
"I've been busy", she shrugged with nonchalance.
"Understandable", he shifted his weight.
Lucy felt the tension in the air and stood up,"Dinner is ready, shall we eat?"
"Yes", Penny followed her quickly.
Ryan confused gulped the rest of his wine and followed the two women. He hadn't realized how much he had thought about Penny until she was standing in front of him. Those beautiful eyes and the tumbling waves of hair, the way she was nervous around him. He sat at the table as Lucy served them. Small talk was made and wine was consumed. It seemed as if they all were trying to get through the meal as quickly as possible without making it noticeable.
"You two go relax" Lucy said clearing away the dishes.
Penny picked up her glass as she and Ryan made their way out onto the front porch,"I'm sorry", she said suddenly.
"For what?", he asked sitting on the edge of the small stonewall.
"I know I have been stand offish and yes I have been avoiding you. I've just had a lot going on."
"It's okay", he sat his glass down carefully,"I just wanted to make sure I hadn't done anything."
"No", she shook her head,"You haven't done anything at all. It's me."
He studied her as he crossed his feet,"What are you afraid of, Penny?"
"What do you mean?"
"What do you think will happen if we get closer? It's obvious that you're uncomfortable and I don't want to make things harder for you."
She leaned against the door jam as she matched the gaze of the icey eyes in front of her,"I'm not afraid, Ryan. I'm confused, very confused."
"Then, may I unconfuse things?", he stood up.
"You don't even know what I'm cofused about", she attempted to keep a space between them.
"It's obviously something to do with me and what you feel for me and what I feel for you", he closed the space.
"Ryan, please", she felt her chest grow heavy with her thundering heart.
"It won't be confusing", he said pressing his lips against hers.
Penny felt as if a flood of memories was suddenly released. Images swam in her mind of warm, green hills, misty mornings, nights by a turf fire. She could clearly see them,"Collin", she murmered against his lips.
"What?", he pulled away abruptly.

Please update soon, I love Dr. Ryan... You might wanna read The Fallen series by Lauren Kate, those are some great books about past lives of a fallen angel. You are heaven sent Fall, your stories are the best.

Penny realized the mistake as soon as she made it, but the images had been so real in her mind. She could see him coming in from a long day of work on their land. The green hills of Ireland behind him, she could smell the wet grass of spring and see the blooms in the garden. The garden they had stood in and watch the sun rise,"I.........I..... I don't know, I'm sorry."
"You called me Collin", he studied her carefully.
"I made a mistake, I'm sorry."
"No," he shook his head,"It's not that, I was called Collin a dream a few nights ago."
"What dream?"
"This is crazy". he mumbled turning away from her,"It can't happen."
"Ryan, what's going on?"
"Do you ever have dreams you can't explain? A place you've never been, someone you don't know?"
"Yes", she nodded,"I've had odd dreams my entire life, well since I was about thirteen anyway."
Ryan studied her for a moment,"I need to go, but I will call you."
"Oh...... okay", she stammered.
"I'm sorry," he called over his shoulder.

Oh Boy! I do believe Ryan has just figured out that he and Penny are having the same Past lives Dream! And he's a bit scared to admit that fact to Penny.
