I stumbled backward until I hit the wall, and then I slid down until my ass hit the hard cement floor. Putting my head between my knees, I tried to take deep breaths as I willed my heart rate to return to normal.

“Love? Oh, my God. Are you okay?”

Willow’s voice sounded far away, and I could barely hear it above the sound of my heart hammering in my ears. But it was what dragged me back to the present and reminded me that Brit was far away and couldn’t hurt me anymore.

I tried to find the words to tell my girlfriend what was going on, but I couldn’t. I couldn’t make myself form a single syllable.

Her arms wrapped around me, pulling me into a gentle embrace that both grounded me and gave me an escape at the same time.

“Talk to me, mo shíorghrá,” she murmured. “What’s wrong?”

I couldn’t help it. I smiled. I loved it when she spoke Gaelic to me. And I could tell she knew it, because it seemed like she did it as often as she could.

“Can you stand up and come into my dressing room, baby?” she asked. “We can talk in there.”

Taking a deep breath, I nodded. Willow stood up and grabbed my hand, helping me to my feet, then led me into her dressing room a few yards away. As soon as we walked in, she locked the door behind us, and we headed to the couch against the far wall.

She took my phone from me and looked at it, then set it on the arm of the sofa and pulled me into her arms and kissed my head.

“You’re not any of those things, mo shíorghrá,” she whispered. “Not even close. I know exactly who you are, and I know there’s not a spiteful bone in your body. You’re kind and loving and beautiful and the best thing that’s ever happened to me.”

Willow pulled back slightly and brushed her lips over mine in a feather-light kiss that made tears sting my eyes. And it wasn’t nearly enough. I went in for another kiss, this time tracing the curve of her bottom lip with my tongue, begging her for entrance. Her lips parted and her tongue slid out, gently but purposefully massaging mine.

As the kiss deepened, I tightened my arms around her, needing to feel her against me. I needed something to keep me anchored to the here and now. Something to remind me that I was far away from anything and anyone that could hurt me.

Sitting back on the couch, I pulled her with me, and she took the hint and moved to sit on my lap, straddling my legs. One of my hands slipped under her shirt, sliding up
