It was my flip to behave shocked and confused.

“Do what Wes?” I breathed, my voice mushy within the shared area.

Weston pointed between us. “This. Not management the scenario. Not bathe you with each costly toy or piece of clothes you need. Provide you with no matter it takes to maintain you, even when it’s only for an evening.”

He turned to look out the window, and I watched his shoulders fall, watched as he hunched himself up and refused to take a look at me.

My coronary heart broke to see him like this.

Candid, sincere.

So determined for a love that he’d clearly by no means had.

“Hey,” I stated as I reached out and set my hand on his thigh.

He turned slowly, his gaze flicking to the place I touched him earlier than he seemed again at me.

“I don’t want all the flowery bullshit. I simply want you,” I stated truthfully, my coronary heart thumping so loudly in my chest I assumed he may certainly hear it.

He smirked earlier than answering. “And a change of garments. Clearly.”

The phrases pressured themselves out of my mouth with out warning. I used to be working on pure adrenaline, as I’d by no means felt this emboldened earlier than.

Then once more, I’d by no means had an precise millionaire at my ft begging me to remain the evening earlier than both, so I assume that may do wonders for anybody’s self worth.

“Give me like, a half hour, forty minutes. I’ll head again to my place, seize some garments, perhaps some ice cream? We will hang around all evening, consuming ice cream and watching some films to neglect all of the bullshit, yeah?” I requested. Hoping he would say sure.

I wasn’t solely certain how you can give Weston what he wanted, however damned if I didn’t need to strive. And the one means I knew how you can shove off the stress and pressure of life was to twist up on my sofa and do exactly as I used to be proposing. Besides, I often did it alone.

Some issues are higher with one other particular person.

Weston appeared to loosen up at my phrases, nodding.

“Okay,” he stated, clearly nervous.

“I’ll come again, I promise,” I stated.

He opened the door. “Textual content me once you’re again right here?” he requested, standing within the open air, the moonlight shining down on him.

I nodded in response. “In fact,” I stated as my nerves began to make their method to my coronary heart.

Weston closed the door, and I watched him stroll away.

Panic tried to settle in, however I pushed it apart.

I can do that.

It’s not like I’ve by no means spent the evening with anybody, and it doesn’t imply now we have to have intercourse.

Did I would like that, although?

The very fact I couldn’t reply no made my complete physique flush with warmth, and I turned the automobile on, rushing off within the course of my home.
