Wholly Apart

Chapter 31

LOREN KENSINGTON

Warren was on his family trip to which Madelyn and I had had to convince him to go on. He was incredibly worried, even though Madelyn and I were doing a little better.

When she'd slept at Connor's and I had slept at Warren's, it had killed me.

I hated not sleeping with her in my arms. Despised it.

I'd slept like shit, barely even slept at all.

I hadn't been able to stop thinking about Madelyn. Wanting to hold her, kiss her, feel her.

But Warren had made me stay in his room every single time I'd tried to leave. He had insisted on sleeping in the same bed as me, which was fucking strange as well.

Madelyn had looked much better when I'd seen her the next morning and I'd spent two whole hours just holding her in my arms, under fucking supervision.

Warren had driven me to Connor's and then I'd pulled Madelyn into my arms so tightly, bringing her to the sofa. And then I'd laid down with her and we'd just held each other with Connor sitting on the sofa beside us.

He had said a few things about it, wondering why we were so clingy when it had only been one night. Why we couldn't let go of each other.

The last four days had been rough still, we'd been having a lot of sex. Not half as much as before and I'd always made sure that she was more than okay, but still a lot.

Warren was incredibly concerned and he had tried to tell us several times that he wouldn't go on the trip because he didn't want to leave us alone. But I'd told him that we would be fine for three days. That he didn't need to stay with us.

Lo ~ Warren

Need serious help ~ Warren

I received Warren's text when Madelyn and I were watching a movie. I pulled my phone out and answered him because I don't think I'd ever gotten a message like this before from him.

I was usually the one that asked Warren for help. And so far on this trip, he'd only asked me twice how we were doing.

With what? ~ Lo

Warren answered literally one second later and at his text, I let out a low laugh. Warren might seem like he knew how to handle the ladies, but he really didn't. He had no idea. It was a little cute.

There's a girl here ~ Warren

Madelyn leaned closer to me and she read the text over my shoulder and gasped, "Do you think it's Emma?"

I looked over at her with a small frown, "Emma? Why?"

She looked so excited, it was fucking adorable, "I think they're cute together"

Emma and Warren? Cute?

"You think?" I wondered, "Why?"

"Emma thinks he hates her," Madelyn grinned, "But I think Warren really likes her, he just doesn't know how to show it"

I grinned back at her, shrugging a little, loving her little scenario that she was making up.

I couldn't see Warren and Emma together, but if she had fun thinking it, then I'd let her. And if it happened between them, then it probably be great.

After all we were friends with both of them. It was better than Warren getting with some random girl who started coming to our apartment.

Fuck, seriously? There's a person of the opposite gender with you? Is she okay? Does she know she's with you? ~ Lo
