He arrived and took me in his arms and held me. I don't know for how long but slowly the grief started to settle down.
A couple of weeks have passed by and I haven't spoken to Mick. In the paddock I avoided him. I feel so weak by opening up to someone about it.
As I'm putting in my airpods to go for a run I bump into Mick. I almost fell to the ground until he caught me. "Are you okay?" he asks. I can only stare at him. Those eyes, his face, the deep voice. I can't move. "Chloe?" .
I get snapped back into reality. "Yes, I'm fine. Sorry" I say, whilst trying to walk away from him. He takes my hand, "Why are you avoiding me? Why did you call me a few weeks ago when you had your breakdown?" He asks. Shit I'm not prepared for those questions. Not now. "I can't answer those now, at the spot." I respond, my voice is shaking. "I'll pick you up around 7pm and we are going to talk somewhere private, I want answers". He sais. He lets go of my hand and walks away.
I'm standing outside on the side of the road waiting for Mick. 7pm sharp he drives up to me. He is dressed casual chique. Those trousers should be illegal on Mick. I'm biting my lip while looking him up and down. Since when am I attracted to Mick?
"Hi, are you getting in or are you going to keep staring at me like a creep?" he says with a smile on his face.
I open my door and get in.
We drive for 10 minutes until he parks his car and we have this crazy mountain view.
"Talk to me, please, your silence is killing me" he tells me while grabbing my hand.
"I'm scared Mick. I called you that day because you are the only person who I trust the most and you know the whole story. I don't know why I called but I longed for your hugs. For your calming words. I longed for you. When I stood there looking at his grave, I longed for your support." I say.
I feel Mick turning his body towards me. He takes my face into his hands. "You crazy woman," he whispers. His face is getting closer and he kisses me. It's a small kiss on my lips. A soft brush. I look at him surprised.
I take a step closer, wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him back.
