Matteo cradled my head into his chest, his large hands cupping my cheek and wrapped around my shoulder, "We will get through this together Cara."
I rip my body away from him, he reaches for me again and I push him away, "No, Matteo. Me and you. I can't do whatever this is anymore." I stand and walk around him into my bedroom, I am about to sit down on my bed when his hands wrap around my hips and pull them flush to him.
"You think you're going to walk away from this- from me, that easily?" Matteo growls roughly into my ear, "And you dare to do so in my clothes?"
My core was molten, to be honest, my face was heated up, my stomach tingling, breaths ragged, "I mean yeah, you're not my boyfriend, we aren't even sleeping together, I can back out no explanation."
Matteo laughed sarcastically, his lips touching the back of my ear, one hand gripping my hip and his arm wrapped around my waist, "I think the fact that you haven't made a single move to get away from me proves that's bullshit."
"I mean, no it is not." I raised my hand and placed it on his, the one on my hip, I wiggled in his hold just to annoy him. "You haven't asked me out and you haven't fucked me."
Matteo tightened his hold on me, "Yet."
