Only you

Chapter 42

Part 42

Jamie's POV

I'm watching Dakota's every move, though I try really hard to focus on the TV.

But my eyes without my permission turn to her when I catch her movement.

She's just finished packing our things. We have a flight to LA tomorrow.

Now she's picking up the dishes from the table.

-Do you want me to help ?-I ask.

-No need, love-she bends over and kisses my forehead-I can handle that.

I clear my throat, and try to calm my heart. It started its racing when she was so close, when I felt her scent.

I move in my seat, and I feel that my jeans starting to be a little uncomfortable.

I close my eyes for a moment and take a deep breath.

God, what is she doing to me ?

How it is possible that she can make me horny even when she doesn't want to do that ?

I turn my eyes back to the TV. I even don't know what I'm watching.

In meanwhile Dakota puts our dishes in the sink. I have perfect view of her from the couch.

She's wearing her sweatpants and one of my shirts.

I love her look. Now she's not a star, not a celebrity. She's just my Dakota.

I turn the TV off.

-You don't watch anymore ?

I need a minute to understand and respond to her.

-There is nothing interesting.

She ends washing the dishes and wipes her wet hands.

At the same time David walks out of his room.

-I'm going to Eloise-he says-I will be back in the morning.

-Are you coming with us to the airport ?-Dakota asks.

-Yeah, my flight is only thirty minutes after yours.

David is coming back to his family. He didn't tell me anything about if he wants to get back here after Christmas.

I know Eloise is not going with him. So I assume that they won't see each other at least for the next week.

I don't know how their relationship looks right now. I hope it will turn into something serious.

-You have keys, right ?-finally something is able to catch my attention, which is all on Dakota right now.

-Yep, so see you tomorrow.

-Have fun-Dakota shouts when he heads to the door.

-I will-David shouts back.

They really found a bound.

I think I can say that they're friends. Nothing more !

I smile at my thoughts.

Is this normal ? That even the smallest gestures, which I know are not more than friendly make me jealous ?

It is because I love her so much. And I'm scared that I will lose her.

If you want to get something it's hard as hell, and you have to wait and wait. But if you want to keep something forever, and never let go, there will always be a something that can take away from you the most precious thing you currently have.
