Determined
to endure my misery alone, I’ve pushed everyone out of my life, including my
best friend, Linc. Now he’s back and he won’t leave without a fight. He’s
tearing down my walls and forcing me to face what I’ve kept buried for so long.
Because of him, I feel like I can finally breathe again, and there’s a sliver
of hope weaving its way into my heart.

I smile

Giving in.
His lips
claim mine, soft yet hard paired with unmistakable determination. His warm
tongue tangles with mine, tasting of deep longing and strong desire.

I’ve dreamed of this moment for solong, to feel his touch, to taste his lips once more. The possessive manner in
which his fingers brand my skin, the way his tongue greedily slides against
mine.
Linc
begins to slow the kiss but I’m not ready for it to end, so I dig deeper and
pull tighter, in my vain attempt to soar higher.

His hands
cup my face and I can sense him trying to pull away, so I let him, because
otherwise I’ll beg him to take me right here and now. His forehead rests
against mine, and I take this opportunity to breathe him in.

confusion settles on his face. “Why?”
“Because of everything that’s happened

forever. It’s what I wanted.”

“I could never hate you.”
“I would hate me,” I whisper.
His hands move to my
back, pulling me into his chest. “Know
what I hate? I hate what he’s done to you. I hate what he took away from us,
and most of all, I hate that you’re still letting him.”
God, I hate it, too.
“It’s time.”
“I know.” I agree, because even though
I don’t deserve him, I need him in order to survive this.
