TWENTY-FIVE

Sorry for the delay... again... hope you all still love me💋

After I showered and I was completely clean, with red eyes I turned the shower off. I walked out, got a big fluffy towel and put it around my body to warm myself up. I walked back in the bedroom and saw Tim sitting on the bed. I ignored him for once and began dressing myself.

'Angel please talk to me' he begged. 'What do you mean, we are not together or something. I will get my stuff and move back in the hotel' I said and put on some socks.

'No princess don't say that' he said and tried to reach for my hand. For a touch. 'Don't call me you're princess. I am not you're princess' I snapped. He sighed and sat down, in defeat. 'What do you need angel please' he begged. 'Why are you trying so hard, I lied, I didn't tell you things and most important I am not important to you. You made that very clear out there' I said.

'Angel I needed to please him, to tell him something to give us time' he said. 'So you say those hurtful things?' I asked him. 'I know that was wrong from me but I need to keep you safe at all times even if it means that I need to hurt you' he said. 'You really hurt me with those awful words' I whispered to him.

'I know angel, and I understand but please don't run away from me you know you owe me an explanation' he said. I nodded, I know I have to talk about it at some point. Explain to him why I didn't tell him and about my baby.

'I know I have to talk about it but Tim I am not ready at all, I can't' I whispered. 'I know angel, but please promise me that you talk to me when you are ready' he said. 'Yes of course, I am not ready to open up about this' I said he nodded. 'Please let me hold you' he begged and took me in his arms without waiting for my answer.

I let his huge arms surround me, and hug me. 'Tim I was so scared, scared that he would hurt you or myself' I said and took a long deep breath. 'I know angel, and you have no idea how sorry I am for hurting you' he said and rubbed my hair.

'Are you sure you are going to be fine' he asked me again. 'Yes don't worry alright, look I am not going to lie Tim. You hurt me, big time but I will be fine. We will be fine alright' I said he nodded. 'You are going to school today? Are you sure?' he asked me again. 'Yes of course, school will be a good distraction and I will meet with Viola afterwards so I will be alright' I said. He nodded. 'I love you' he whispered and I was shocked he said that just before leaving.

'I see you later' I said and walked out. Stupid, why didn't I say it back. I do love him, I am madly in love with him but why can't I just say it to him? Why is that so hard? Deep down I know why, I never knew what it meant to say it with feelings. True feelings, I truly love him but like Roger. I never really loved him after all.

'Hey there stranger' Drake said to me when I walked in the hall to the classroom. 'Hi haven't seen you in a while' I said, 'same for you, where have you been?' he asked me. 'Oh well I was busy, with school, work and you know friend and family' I said shrugging. He didn't need to know all the stuff I had been going true.

'And where have you been?' I asked him to change the subject. 'Oh I haven't been feeling that well lately, with stress and a new job. I had this interview with this amazing company but they refused me can you believe that I mean I am amazing in my job' I said.

'Oh that is a bummer, where did you have a interview?' 'with the greatest company in the city. The owner is mister Ashforth and he didn't want me, what a douche right?' he said snapping at my current boyfriend. 'You can say that' I said and honestly I meant it. He really is that asshole. But you know, I love that asshole. I regret it that I didn't say it back this morning. I should have done that.
