Click hereEscorting Tom back through the house, Ellie kept glancing back at him and smiling, almost as if to remind herself he was still there. Finally making it to the front door, Ellie leant down ever so slightly to kiss Tom once more, "Have a good afternoon now, try not to miss me too much."
Tom grinned back up at her, "Yeah yeah, I'm sure I'll struggle on somehow." He pulled her in for a hug, which she warmly reciprocated. As Tom made his way down the short flight of stairs from the door, Ellie disappeared with a small wave and as he lost sight of her, Tom was fairly certain that he'd probably end up struggling afterall.

Great start to this series.
I’m not sure if I’d prefer to be Tom or Ellie, but no worries as either works for me !
Sorry, for some reason it never occurred to me that I could comment on my own stories! @Rapierwit24601, thank you for the suggestion! I've taken you up on that idea.
@Dark_Raven I may or may not have changed Ellie's last name half way through my first draft and completely forgotten to change it all the way through the story. I'm sorry to hear that it made the story more difficult for you to read and I've tried to be more careful about that kind of thing in future. Thanks!
And lastly, thanks to the anonymous user who explained, it's "Maths" here in Australia! Hope it's not terribly distracting.
To future American and Canadian readers: it is proper to say "maths" in England and Australia.
The errors at the very start of the story kind of turned me off to reading more. "his attention had wondered" (wandered). "Maths" (math or mathematics). "Ellie Addison" Josh answered - everyone knew Ellie Andrews. Is it Addison or Andrews? May want to get an editor to help you out.
Other than these small things, very good story!
