Chapter Twenty-Two
Grey
We leave the hidden stream after another session of mind-blowing sex. Speaking on the blowing part, that alone was fucking fantastic. I never truly knew how much I missed her soft, responsive body and lips, full and perfectly made for me. I filled her in ways no other man ever would. And although we have not yet titled whatever the hell we are, it still felt amazing knowing how open she was to me. To touch her, caress her, kiss her, claim her.
I have half a mind to just have us continue like this without any title, but I know she wants one. She still has to win back my trust first. To be honest, thatâs just what my pride is telling me. What I really want to do is have her back in my life again. I have been so fucking dead on the inside ever since that day in December. And now that I have her slowly falling in my palm like putty, I want so fucking desperately to just sweep her off her feet and live blissfully in ignorance to the many, many reasons why we shouldnât be together.
You have to protect your heart, Grey, my rather reasonable but pretty fucking prideful subconscious reminds me. Sheâs hurt you before and you didnât see it coming. The same thing can happen.
I grip the leather wheel and tap my fingers anxiously. âYou wonât hurt me again, right?â I need to hear her say it. I need the reassurance, or I will go internally crazy and it will spill over andâfuck, I already feel my skin itching. Without my meds, I feel like I am slowly driving myself insane. I have to admit, when I was on them, I felt calmer and more rational. But I am who I truly am without them. And I am determined to show everyone that I can be sane without any fucking pill.
I feel her eyes on me, so I glance over at her. Sheâs staring at me with an unreadable expression, and thatâs not good because I can usually read her mind with one look. Her huge brilliant blue eyes are squinted, and her lips are bunched to one side.
âWhat?â I say, feeling a little analyzed. I donât like the feeling. I didnât feel it the first time around, and now I feel paranoid thatâs whatâs happening now. âStop that.â
âStop what?â she asks.
âThat,â I snap, and she flinches. I let out a breath, grip my hair, and stare at the deserted roads. âI donât like it when you look at me like that.â
âLike what?â she asks. I see her shrug in my peripheral vision.
âLike youâre studying me,â I say, and my knuckles turn white. I peek a glance at her and see sheâs frowning at her hands, like sheâs about to burst into tears. âJustâ¦promise me that you wonât hurt me again.â
âYou know I wonât,â she says, her voice hoarse with tears.
FuckâI shouldnât have let my crazy-ass mind speak. Now sheâs all hurt and shit.
