In the end

Chapter 55

Daisy's POV:

It takes a good walk from the camping bay to the cottage for me and Jordan to connect over small things.
Such as his favourite colour, typical but still useful.
Or his favourite song.
What I found most fascinating about him is his love for astronomy.
The way he explains the moon and the stars to me felt surreal. People use the moon and the stars talk as something to just be extraordinary for, but he knew much more than how the moon shines to earth or how the stars shoot from the sky.

We arrived to the cottage pub a few minuets ago and the old lady who saw us earlier was so happy to see us back.
After we ordered our food which was the traditional chicken and gravy pie with mash. Classic!
I continued to ask him more questions about himself.
Just to know him better.
'So what is your favourite planet?'
'Neptune' he answers straight away leaving me surprised, it takes a long time for a person to decide which planet they love the most, just because every planet is as beautiful as every other.
'And why Neptune?'
'Neptune is interesting, the way it's a satisfying colour of blue and looks like a huge ball of water standing in the solar system intrigues me'
I place a hand on my jaw and listen to him talk about his interest in the planet.
'What's your favourite planet?' He asks me and I take minute to think.
'Mars' I reply back
'That's a cool planet, what do you like about it?'
'I like how even though it looks like the hottest planet ever, it's considered as the coldest desert' I explain
His gaze doesn't drop from me and he expressively keeps staring at me like he's analysing every part of my face.
I smile at him and shake my head.
'You're always looking at me like that' I give a small laugh and look away
'That's because you're giving me every reason to look at you like this'
My cheeks burn red when he says that, I try catching my breath because right now it feels like I can't breathe.
My lips part and I stare back at him. His pupils dilate the more our stares intensify.
The dark red wound on his lip made him ten times more attractive than he already is and the heat between my legs start to grow more and more fierce.
I squeeze my thighs together to stop the feeling growing but it only becomes more strong.
I let out a small sigh and squeeze my hand into a ball.

'Here you two go!' The old lady suddenly comes next to us and places a plate down infront me and Jordan.
God bless you old lady!
'If you two need anything more just let me know' she smiles and walks away.
'This looks delicious' I say sniffing the beautiful aroma coming from the pie and mash.
'Looks way better than that fish slop' Jordan grabs his knife and fork and digs into his food.

After finishing our meals, we pay, say thank you and leave.
Now it's time for the walk back to camping bay.
'Is it me or is this trip not camping at all?' I say looking around the wide nature path we are walking from.
The sky is starting to turn dark blue and I'm guessing it's already time for camp fire and marshmallows at the camping bay.
'I mean, staying in cabins isn't exactly camping' he says.
'I don't think so too, but oh well' I shrug
Today was a whirlwind of a day and I have one question in my mind that I want to ask Jordan.
'By the way' I start with my question
'Why didn't you react back when jax hit you?'
Jordan chuckles and slips his hand to mine.
'I don't fight physically' he says leaving me confused.
I don't know if jax's behaviour made me believe every men is violent, but it genuinely surprised me when he just admitted that he doesn't like reacting back to physical conflict.
'But I would've expected you to at least react back when he hit you' I say and he shrugs
'I would've but what would that make me look like in your eyes'
'So you didn't fight back..because of me?' I ask and he nods
I don't think I've ever been in a situation with a guy where they avoid conflict just for my happiness.
'I really appreciate you' I say and he kisses my hand with a soft smile on his face that tells me everything with me and him is going to be okay.
