Chapter Twelve

Declan

I feel stifled. Felicity has not said a word since we left. I know that I am supposed to say something to her, but I don't know what.

She is currently looking out the window and not paying me any mind. Eli is busy on his iPad, even if he senses the tension between us, he does not comment on it.

I want to talk to Felicity, but I don't know what to say. There is no denying my attraction to her now. I find her really attractive and desirable. Keeping my hands off her has become a herculean task.

The song that plays on the radio makes the silence between Felicity and me slightly bearable. I continue to look at her as I drive, wishing I could tell what she was thinking.

Does she regret agreeing to help me?

My heart aches at the thought that I have done something to warrant that. Then, when I suddenly remember that Felicity has to give me directions to her apartment, I glance at her quickly as I turn left onto the side street. I remember she mentioned residing in Riverview.

"I will need directions."

"I could input it in the GPS for you," she responds, her voice calm and even, I wonder whether she is suggesting that because she doesn't want to have to talk to me more than she is required.

Felicity does as she says but does not glance in my direction, I am forced to listen to the robotic voice that continues to give directions to her apartment.

Maybe it's best to leave her to process this and realize the sexual tension between us because I am well aware that she desires me sexually as much as I do her. It had been evident in her eyes this morning when I reached out for her and kissed her. It had also been very obvious when she looked up at me. Her eyes were filled with that barely repressed desire. Her look of desire is what had egged me on because I wouldn't have been able to go through with it otherwise.

Felicity appears to be living on the outskirts of town, I wonder just how early she has to get up every morning to prepare in order to get to the office on time. I finally park in front of her apartment and watch as she turns to flash me a strained smile.

"I had the best time at your parents’. I'm quite glad that they didn't hassle us too much when we decided not to have breakfast."

"Thank you for coming with us," I say and watch as she pushes the car door open and gets out.

I wait until she disappears in the stairwell before turning on the ignition again and beginning our drive home.

I really have messed things up. I should not have kissed her a second time.

"Are you both fighting?"

I look in the rearview mirror, shocked at Eli's question.

"I think so. I did something she didn't like."

"So, are you both broken up now?" Eli sounds hopeful.

I turn this time to gaze fully at him.
