The tears are already welling in my eyes as I read her reply. I quickly stop what I’m doing and leave the kitchen. I quietly sneak out the back door, down the side of the house, wiping my eyes with the back of my hand as I go. I don’t want the others to see I’m upset. Thankfully they’re all busy with the food prep, they don’t notice me leave.

I rest my forehead up against the house and let the tears fall. I never thought my relationship with my father would be strained like this, but I love Chase and I’m not going to stand by and let him ruin this for me.

“Hey, what are you doing around…what the fuck, are you crying?” Chase asks rushing towards me, spinning me around and wrapping me in his big, strong, comforting arms. “Did the girls say something to upset you?”

“No,” I reply as I wipe my eyes. I didn’t want him to see me like this.

“What’s wrong then, sweet-cheeks?” he asks concerned as he cups my face in his hands.

“It’s nothing, really. I’m just being silly.”

“Bullshit,” he says as his eyebrows furrow. I don’t want him to think these tears have anything to do with him, or his family.

“I just got a message from my mum which upset me. No big deal.”

“Oh,” he says as worry crosses his handsome face. “Does it have something to do with what happened with your father?”

“Yes.”

“Do your parents want you to stop seeing me?”

“No.” I feel bad he thinks my mum would be in on something like that. She loves Chase. I pull out my phone and let him read the message. Maybe it’ll ease his mind some.

I see a small smile cross his face when he reads the part about him. “Did I tell you how much I like your mum?” he asks.

“Yeah, she’s pretty cool. So is my dad when he’s not interfering in my love life.”

“I hate how us being together is coming between the relationship you have with him. That’s the last thing I want.”

“Well it’s not your problem, or mine. It’s his. I’m not going to let him pull us apart, Chase.”

“I’m happy to hear that,” he says as he wipes away one of my stray tears with his thumb. “I don’t want to lose you.”

I fist my hand in the front of his shirt, pulling his lips towards me. I don’t want to lose him either. “I love you,” I whisper against his mouth. “I won’t let that happen.”

He backs me up against the side of the house, wrapping my ponytail around his wrist, pulling on it gently to tilt my head back so he can deepen the kiss. “I don’t think I’ll ever get my fill of you,” he groans into my mouth. I don’t think I’ll ever get enough of him either.

Thankfully, our kiss is interrupted when someone calls out, “Dinner’s ready.” As much as I want him right now, I don’t like the thought of having sex here, where anyone can catch us.
