Chapter 6

Bumper

FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK. My feet barely touched the ground. Sweat poured off me, a mix of fear and adrenaline. My legs were on fire, as I ran and a stitch started in my side. I tore around my truck. The mud gave out on me and I slipped, falling flat on my face. The sting of the cold mud slapped my face. Scrambling to my feet, I stumbled to the driver side and yanked my keys out of my pocket. My fingers shook…fuck…I stabbed at the lock several times before it fell into the lock. Opening the door, I jumped in, gunned the engine and at the squeal of tires, I tore out of Belle’s Park. Home, home is safe. FUCK! I kept glancing in my rearview mirror, expecting to see those things following me. Shaking despite the heater in the truck, I replayed the evening in my mind.

My shift at the bakery was over. All the bread and pastries for the day were done and I had cleaned the kitchen. I had hoped to see Hale tonight but he had complained he was feeling sick. I had offered to come over and make him some chicken noodle soup, but he had declined. Gotta admit it stung. We had spent the last week together and they had been the best in my life. I missed him when we weren’t together. I craved his touch. His kiss. He tasted so good. When I was with him, I was so happy, so content. I was also horny, mushy and hopelessly falling head over heels in love with him. I didn’t want to tell him. We had only been dating a short time, but I was in love with him. Since the first time I saw him sitting with Alex and Emmett when he joined them for lunch, I had told my mom and grandma, I found the man I’d marry. Silly huh? Can’t even marry him in Georgia, yet it didn’t matter. I’d go to a state we could marry in. Hale McAvoy was going to be mine.

He was so cute and sexy. A spitfire, who didn’t act afraid of me. When he looked at me with those big brown eyes, a warmth spread through my chest and I forgot to breathe. His skin was like warm honey. And his lips. Heaven help me because the first time we kissed, it was electric and I wanted more. It wasn’t only physical attraction. We talked, I mean really talked, about the town, the world. Being with him was so easy. I know I’m not the brightest. I can live with it. He never made me feel less. In fact, when he was with me, he gave me all his attention. I was the center of his attention. So, it hurt when he didn’t want me to come over and take care of him.

I was driving home when I spotted his car heading to the far side of town. He was supposed to be home.
