His Redemption (MxM)

Chapter 74

Luke

I watched him shake his head and chuckled out between intervals "please tell me you at least have past relationships, ex boyfriend"? He asked and I just rolled my tongue inside my mouth.

"Skip to the next question" I muttered out, and he chuckled out lightly, looking at me, and then he shook his head

"Hell no, now I'm fucking curious, I want to know about your past relationship life, if you had any" he rushed out, excitement lacing his voice, I sighed out and clenched my jaw, this isn't a fucking a game, he should just move on to the next question

"Next question Adriano" I muttered out, and he smiled, still shaking his head

"So you don't have an ex? But you have ex hookups"? He asked wiggling his brows, the word alone made my chest tightened as I swallowed hard

"Drop it Adriano" I muttered out, he laughed and shook his head.

"Oh you do have ex...." I cut him off slamming my hand on the table

"I said fucking drop it"!!! I growled out, feeling my hands tremble, my heart was pounding, I don't know why I suddenly hated that word, but hearing it makes me so mad and pissed off, and Adriano is not someone that takes a hint very easily.

My eyes rested on his and the smile on his face had wiped off, and he was just staring at me, fuck
I clenched my jaw and looked away from him.
"I didn't mean to piss you off, I didn't realize...." I cut him off, turning my eye back to him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to snap like that I just...." I sighed out and pinched the bridge of my nose.

"No, no, it's my mistake, relationship is a sour topic for you I get it" I quickly shook my head

"No, no, it's not, it's just... It's nothing like that, I just don't like talking about it because I've never been in one" I rushed out and although he looked a bit surprised, his face was still blank, and he was just staring at me, and it was making me feel even worse about how I snapped at him a few minutes ago.

"I shouldn't have brought it up, it was thoughtless of me..." He started but I didn't know when my hand moved and rested on top of his, he seemed startled by my sudden physical contact, I felt him tense up before he slowly started to relax

"Stop...." My eyes met his and I sighed out and clenched my jaw, I'm not usually this rash when it comes to temperament, so what the fuck is wrong with me, why did I lose my temper with him that fast? "Look, you didn't do anything wrong, and relationship is not a sour topic for me, it's just something that I've never really talked about with anyone, it's kind of like ...." I felt him wrap his fingers around my hand, his fingers are rather long and soft, they don't feel like a man's hand, they're tender, but large, large enough to cover my own hand.

"Luke, I get it, I should have stopped when you told me to, I guess I was carried away with teasing you" he said softly, I sighed out heavily, to be honest, I didn't snap at him because he was asking about my relationship life, I did it because he was emphasizing on the hook ups I've had.

Ever since Hewitt, that word has formed a new meaning in my head, and whenever I hear it, all I can think about is the last thing Hewitt said to me before.... I sighed out heavily, pushing the thoughts of Hewitt away from my mind.

I focused back on Adriano and he was still staring at me "what do you say we do something about your movie situation"? He asked cracking up a smile, I pushed one back to him, and slowly nodded, I don't know what he intends to do, but anything to curb this awkwardness, and this unease my bad temper brought down on us.
"Come on, where's your computer"? He asked pulling me up by my hand, I followed him, he led me through the stairs and into the living room, my computer was already on the table.
