Forever Mine

Chapter Twenty-Two

Sara.

I wake up to him drawing on my bare back with his finger, I smile and look over my shoulder seeing him awake just waiting for me. His artistic body drawing stops as I look at him.

Dont stop. I wine. That feels amazing. I tell him. What are you doing up so early? I ask him.

I couldnt sleep. He tells me.

Why? I ask another question.

I just didnt want to fall asleep and this all be a dream. If so I dont ever want to wake up. He tells me.

Its most defiantly not a dream. I assure him.

So about you living in Bangor. He starts. Did you want to, um, I dont know, move back in with me? He asks me.

You know Id love nothing more than to do that but, my life is here now. My job, Im doing schooling a few days a week so Im still going to Farmington Monday and Thursdays. I tell him. Im sorry. I just think that being in Bangor is the best thing for me.

Okay so Ill look at apartments in Bangor. He tells me.

Youd give up your penthouse? I question.

No. Ashlynn and Jace were looking for something larger then their apartment. So Ill give it to the and I can always find another penthouse here. He assures me.

You still have school. I state.

I can do the same days you do. He tells me.

Your entire life is in Farmington. I whisper. Youd give it all up for me? I ask him.

Id do anything for you. Id do anything to insure I never loose you again. He states.

I cant let you do that, I blurt out before I can think of what I was saying.

Your not letting me do anything. Im doing this. I want to be with you. Always. He says kissing my lips. Do you want breakfast? he asks me.

Sure. I agree.

Great. Im starving. He states as he walks over to the bathroom. I laugh grabbing the shirt on the floor and following him in once I hear the shower. I lean against the door watching him get into the shower. Watching the water run over his muscular body. His tight ass. Damn. Ive missed him so much. Hes changed so much in the past three months and so have I. Part of me wonders if this change is going to make it hard for us to fit back together when we get back to the real world. I shake my head pushing that thought away from my mind and take off the shirt walking into the shower right behind him. I wrap my arms around his wet naked body leaning my head against his back. I pull back feeling something rough on my cheek. As I pull away I see new scars on his back.

Hadin. I whimper. What happened to your back? I ask him. His head hangs down. Hadin. I repeat his name.

When I went back to Ireland, they didnt believe that I was there to be with them. So they got me doped up on I dont know how many drugs and drinks and whipped my back. He tells me.

What kind of friends are these? I ask him tears streaming from my eyes.

Nothing good. He tells me. Hadin turns around towards me cupping my face in his hands. If they find out Im gone because of you. I dont know what they will do. He warns me. Dont cry. He wines.

I cant even think of how much they hurt you. I cry. I cant stop picturing this. I tell him.

Sara. Its over. Okay? Im going to make sure I never go back to that life. Ever. Again. He promises me. Okay? he asks me and I shake my head. Hadin leans in and kisses my mouth.
