THE RAIN was coming down harder than ever,as if the heavens themselves were weeping for the loss that had befallen them.Brooklyn stood at the infant of the dorm her shoulders hunched against the cold and damp,her breath misting in front of her face.She hesitated for a moment as she reached the door,her hand trembling slightly,she took a deep breath and raised her fist,poised to knock.But before she could make contact,the door swung open. "I'm sorry" Brooklyn managed to choke out,her voice barely audible.
"Lynn what happened to you?" Logan gestured vaguely to her cheek.Her heart skipped a beat as she touched her cheek self-consciously. "Oh. Yeah, um... it's nothing"
Logan looked unconvinced. "It doesn't look like nothing.It's still fresh.You should let me see it, maybe help you take care of it" He stepped forward,reaching out to touch her cheek again.
The warmth of his hand sent a shiver down her spine.She wanted nothing more than to let them help her,to feel his touch,but a tiny voice in the back of her mind warned her not to trust anyone with this secret.Not yet. "It's fine" she said, pulling back. "I think we need to talk about last night.You could have told me that you want see another people" Brooklyn mumbled, "I know we didn't agreed on anything so -"
"Lynn" His eyes narrowed,and she could see the frustration building in them. "I feel like you keep pushing me away all the time" Brooklyn's heart ached as she watched the anger and hurt play across his features.She knew Logan was right; she had been pulling away,trying to protect him from the danger. "And then i saw you with him"
"You were there with girl to"Brooklyn thrown her hand in air. "You could tell me about her"
"You could tell me that you were seeing Ezra" Logan exclaimed quietly."I am not seeing him" Brooke shouted back.
"Oh god Brooklyn-I saw you with him"Logan sighed. "I saw it how he touched you,the way you look at him"
"Logan i don't want him"She whispered,her voice barely audible even to her own ears. "All i want is you" Her lover's eyes widened in surprise,and a small smile curved his lips.
"I love you"She blurted out,the words catching in her throat. "I can't stop thinking about you. Time seems stop when i am with you,everything falls behind me.You make feel something,I didn't feel anything like this before"
Her lover's eyes widened,for a moment.Then, slowly,a small smile spread across their face."I love you too" He whispered,Their lips met their kisses more urgent now,as if they were trying to convey a message that words alone could not express.Brooklyn's hands tangled in Logan's hair,her touch sending shivers down his spine.He responded by pulling her closer, his fingers digging into her lower back.
