Broken Hearts And Bruised Egos -Book 1

Chapter 15- River

I had an amazing day with Blaise. All I really wanted to do now is go straight upstairs to shower and go to bed. Trevor texted when I was on my way home and said that he really needed to talk me tonight. I'm too exhausted to go anywhere so I told him he had to meet me at my house. I just hope that he's not coming here to fight with me about me not letting him come today, I'm too tired for that tonight.

I was sitting on the front porch listening to music when he pulled up.

"Hey beautiful." he said getting out of the car.

There was something off about him tonight, he seemed sad. He leaned down to kiss my forehead and then sat down on the step next to me. I eyed him for a second.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I'm leaving."

"What do you mean you're leaving?" I turned to face him.

"I'm going to Alabama with Spears for a few weeks to help him move his stuff up here."

"When do you leave?"

"Tonight."

"Tonight?! When will you be back?"

" In four weeks."

"Wow. Okay." I sighed. My chest started to tighten a bit. I think I feel a little bit more for Trevor then I care to admit to myself at this point.

"I just need to get away for a while, and I figured this would give you the space you need to figure out your feelings for Blaise. I just don't have the willpower to stay away from you when I'm here. The last thing I want to do is smother you while you try to work out what you want to do." He said rubbing his palms on his knees. "I know I can be difficult and intense at times but I'm working on it. I've never felt this way about anyone before."

" Neither have I."  I smiled. "I'm going to miss you." I said leaning in to him.

"I'm going to miss you too little minx. But don't think for one second that you are getting out of your training. I have arranged for you to take a kickboxing class right up the street at Mick's. I figured this way you could walk there if you didn't have a ride. It's already paid for, you just have to show up 4 days a week."

"Trevor I can't let you pay for that."

"Too bad. It's already done." He smiled.

I shook my head at him. I don't like when people pay for things for me, It makes me uncomfortable. But I don't want to argue about that right now.

"I don't want you to go." I said giving him a pouty face.

"You better tuck that pouty lip in before I kiss it."

I stuck my lip out again and batted my eyes.

"You aren't going to make this easy on me are you?" he said laughing.

"Nope."

He stood up and pulled me into a hug. God he always smells so good.

"Hey. Can I borrow this while you're gone?" I said tugging at his hoodie.

"Why? Are you going to sleep in it every night?"

"Maybe." I smiled up at him.

He took the hoodie off and handed it to me.
I put it on and he grabbed the hoodie strings ,pulling me close to him.

" Between the Kick boxing, the karate lessons with Blaise and the gym with your mom, I'm half expecting you to look like a warrior princess by the time I get back."

"HA! I wouldn't count on that."

"Yeah, You're right. Knowing you and your two left feet, You will probably hurt yourself and end up in a full body cast." He laughed.
