“I’ve missed you. I’ve had to put up with Rush’s sulking ass. So trust me I missed the fuckin’ hell outta you.”

“I love you.” My heart almost stopped beating in my chest.She hadn’t spoken those words since the last time I held her in my arms.“And you did leave me. But... but you came back. No one’s ever come back. They leave me and that’s it. They want to leave me. You didn’t. And you came back.” I wanted to stand up and reach across the table and jerk her into my arms but I wasn’t sure I could stand up just yet. I needed to hear everything she had to say.“Yes, I came back. My heart never left you.”“I miss you.”This time I stood up and walked around the table.“I miss you. Every second of every day,” I whispered. Her eyes followed me until I was inches from her.“I trust you.”I needed more than that.“You trust me,” I repeated.She nodded and her hand came up and caressed the side of my arm.“I want to try again.”Those were the words I needed to hear.”

“I missed you so much, he replied in a more serious tone”

“You want what you can’t have. I see it in your eyes. Thepain that fills your nights is because of my pack of lies. I’veopened up the door for you to walk away. There’s a betterpath for you even though I want you to stay. I’ve broken therules, I’ve veered from the path but when I met you I knewto save you was worth the wrath. Let me leave now beforeit’s too late. Let me leave now before you know what I amand your love becomes hate.”

“He stopped and looked back at me "I love you too Pagan. I'll miss you. In every life.”

“He pressed a kiss to my ear. “Do you feel stretched? Can you tell I’ve been inside you?”I nodded, feeling my knees go a little weak from the tone in his voice.“Good. I like knowing you can feel where I’ve been.”

“Because I’ve had a taste and I’m not sharing. This isn’t just for fun. I may be slightly addicted.”
