SEVENTEEN

THORNTON

Kennedy wasn't saying anything regarding my confession, so in the usual fashion, I continued to ramble. "I know, I know how horrible I sound, but I've changed, and I need you to tell me how to prove it to you. There’s a lot of the old me inside, but...and I'm not trying to make you feel guilty here...when it all went down, something changed inside me.

"I'm not the same guy, and I don't know if you can care for the man I am now, Kennedy. We shouldn't have rushed into this, but I couldn't wait to have you. I'll keep my feelings in check in the future," I offered him with all the sincerity inside me.

He swallowed and looked at the ceiling for a moment, leaving me with a wrenching pain in my chest. When he returned his gaze to me, I saw something in his eyes I'd never seen from him. He was vulnerable, and that wasn't Kennedy...well, that wasn’t the Kennedy I knew all those years ago.

"I...I've tried to deal with so much on my own. I mean, I don't even let Aurora in as much as I used to. I've changed as well, Thornton, and I'm not sure if you'll care for the man I've become. I'm at a loss for how to deal with this mess on my own. I need help," he whispered as tears slid down his temples.

I leaned forward and kissed him gently. "Kennedy, I’m here, love. Maybe we came back to each other when it was right...when we needed each other the most?"

He appeared to be stunned, and I was worried about what I'd said, quickly babbling. "I should get up and dress. It won't bode well if Jude wakes to find me here like this. I'll go start breakfast." I started to get out of bed before I made a bigger ass of myself. I turned to him, seeing the concern on his gorgeous face, so I offered, "You can lean on me, love. I'm not going anywhere." I hoped I sounded reassuring because I meant every word.

I saw another tear slide down his temple, and I kissed it away. I'd kiss away all of his tears away if he’d allow it. He was what I needed, and it sounded like I was what he needed, so maybe it was right?

After a quick shower, I dressed and hurried to the kitchen to fix breakfast before Jude woke up. I was just dropping bread into the toaster when Jude slowly walked into the kitchen, rubbing his eyes. "Dad? What do we have to do today?" he asked. He sounded so exhausted, I felt sorry for the little guy.

"Your dad's still sleeping, but all you have to do today is go talk to the lady Uncle Rob told us about the other night. You remember us talking about it?" I asked as I picked him up and propped him on my hip. Hell, he was a big kid, but he needed as much affection as we could give him, so I didn't hesitate.
