Hold My Breath
“It was fucking. It was amazing fucking, but it wasn’t enough. It wasn’t what she deserved.
Last night was about showing her what she means to me. I consumed her. I tasted every inch of her body over three hours, and I made her cry my name a dozen times. We fell asleep with a full moon lighting up the room through our hotel window, and I held her naked body against mine, proud that our flesh was sticky from our sex.
But when I woke up to her asleep in my arms, my heartbeat began to race ...with the realization of what had happened. Reality came crashing in. Lust can cloud judgment, and last night was selfish of me. There are things in my life—promises I’ve made in my brother’s memory, that I won’t break…ever. When Dylan needs me, I’ll be there. When Tanya asks for support, I’ll give it. And none of that is on them, just like their lives that Evan left them with aren’t their doing.
I promised myself that I would be patient, let Maddy really see the baggage I carry.MoreLess
