Waiting Forever

Chapter 13

Logan's (POV)

I watched from the living room as she shifted and ran for the woods, I wanted to follow her but what I hear in her mind caused me to pause.

Did she really think that she was unloved? I knew she loved me and what I represented to her but it wasn't enough to give us a chance? It broke my heart to hear those words about leaving me, my heart clenched at the thought and it was enough to bring me to the floor in a heap.

Spencer ran over to me and was going to help me but I just shook my head. My parents were standing there staring at me with worry, I watched Spencer walk up and whisper something but my heart was beating so loud in my ears I couldn't hear what he had said. By the look on their faces I knew he told them what Mia had said.

When I heard what Mia was think I told Spencer that we didn't need to take her things to my room, that she was going to want a different one. To say he was shocked was an understatement because both him and Zoey were telling questions at me left and right. I had no choice but to tell them what she had said and that I wasn't about to force her to stay with me.

I dragged myself off the floor and went to my room. Her scent was still here, it was light but it was enough to give me and my wolf some sort of comfort. He was feeling rejected not understanding why she was so willing to let us go.

'We need to get her back' he whispered there was so much pain in his voice that it caused me to flinch. He was in love with her wolf and with her same as I was.

'We can't force her to do what we want or else we will be as bad as them.' He knew who we were referring to, he didn't like it but he agreed that if we wanted her back that we had to give her space.

I laid on my bed and stared out at the starry night filled sky, it was an amazing view the only thing that was missing was her. Closing my eyes on that thought I brought a picture of her up in my mind, her hair was lightly curled and flowed around her shoulders hugging her curves, she had this bright smile on her face and love in her eyes as she looked at me. She mouthed 'I love you' and her image began to fade.

Tears poured out of my eyes as I thought we might never have that, she will leave and we will be left to die because living without her was impossible now that we had, had her. She lit my whole world up with just one look, the feel of her in my arms as I held her felt so right. I wanted to spend my whole life loving her and showing her that she was worth it, at least to me and fuck the rest if the world because she was it, the one thing that gave my life meaning.

I turned and hugged the pillow that smelled of her as I drifted off to sleep.

Mia's (POV)

I couldn't get his hurt look out of my mind, he loved me so much and I didn't understand why or how. I made my way back to the house, running had given me some time to think and realize I was letting them win, the people who hard hurt me by not being able to fully let myself be with Logan.

He offered hope of a better life and because I was scared I wanted to run from the only guy who didn't care about my past, who stayed because of the person I was not who he thought I should be. He was everything I had ever hoped for and because of those assholes I was willing to give him up because I felt he deserved better? Well what about me? What did I deserve? I went through hell growing up and life finally gave me him, my mate, my Logan.

I shifted to my human form and ran up the back entrance straight to his room. He was laying in his side cuddling the pillow I had used last night, dry tear tracks were on his face and my heart broke. He was so strong and fierce and I broke him.

I slipped in behind him, causing him to gasp and jump until he caught a whiff of who it was. He turned around with a guarded expression not really knowing what to expect.
