Heated - Chapter 24
"I thought when you're skydiving that you should jump out of some sort of airplane, not a freaking helicopter!"
"Well, that would defeat the purpose of the surprise, now wouldn't it?"
Harry chuckles over at me as he somehow managed to get me into the red jumpsuit as Jackson is helping to prepare us. I am just a few feet away from the exit as my heart is pounding in my throat already and I'm holding back every urge to puke out of nerves.
"I can't do this! I change my mind!"
I start panicking as I rush back to sit on the seat as the wind blows in my face. Harry then comes to sit on the seat opposite from me as I look over at him in fear and concern for my life.
"Give me your hand." He holds his hands out as he waits for me to do so. I hesitantly take them as I don't look him in his eyes this time as the nerves are eating me up inside. "Look at me, Paige."
I finally set my gaze to him as he looks at me with sympathy and concern in his eyes.
"I can't jump out of this thing, Harry. It's too much for me to take."
I don't know if it was the adrenaline, fear or nerves, but whatever came over me made me get emotional as I feel a warm tear fall down my cheek.
"Shh, it's okay." Harry comes to sit down beside me as he holds me in his arms and I cling tightly to him. He wipes the tear from my cheek as he is now looking into my eyes as his looks saddened as he watches me. "I know it's scary, but you have to stop letting fear overrule you. Take the risk and just let go." I look at him as his words hit a nerve and it reminds me of my Dad's words to me. "But if you don't want to do it, then we can just stop this whole thing right now, if that's what you want?"
Harry's green eyes searches mine for any emotion as I take in his words and take in a deep breath.
"No, I'm going to do it."
I reassure him as his brows lifts in surprise and some kind of hope lies beneath his eyes.
"You are? Are you sure?"
He questions as I nod at him in reassurance and wipe the tears from my eyes. I'm not going to be scared anymore. I'm going to let go of my fears, just as he said.
"Let's do this."
I smile at him as he looks relieved by my answer as he kisses my forehead and then nods over at Jackson.
"We're ready."
I breathe heavily as I don't even attempt to look down as Harry is hooking himself into me from behind and Jackson is busy behind him as he helps him out with some things.
