“You had been drunk.”

“It was weeks in the past. You’ve had a lot of alternatives to inform me what you probably did. And also you saved it a secret from me. I believed we didn’t lie to one another?”

“I by no means lied. I simply didn’t inform you.” Figuring out precisely how pathetic that distinction is, I can’t meet her eyes.

“Good strive, child. You fucked up and you then hid it from me.”

“Hey, who stated I fucked up? I’m not sorry about what I did. Not for a second. I’m at all times going to guard you. I’m at all times going to battle for you. I’m at all times going to decide on you.”

“You’re making an attempt to make decisions for me.”

“I’m not. I’m making my very own decisions. I’m not about to take a seat again and watch anybody make you’re feeling like that.”

“Cease speaking about daughters we don’t even have!”

She’s so pissed at me. Her face is pink, and he or she’s nearly vibrating. Her fists are clenched at her sides. I’m undecided I’ve ever seen her this pissed at me earlier than. And I piss her off all of the rattling time.

“But, Lemon. What number of occasions do I’ve to inform you that?”

“Simply go away it alone, Jameson. I don’t need to discuss this anymore.”

I hate that she’s pissed at me. However I need to stand proper right here and yell about it till she’s not pissed anymore. However she’s nonetheless operating from me on the first signal of bother. Nothing’s modified, even when the whole lot’s modified.

“Not occurring, Lemon. I’m not going wherever. And we’re not leaving till we determine this out. You’re keen on me, and I positive as hell love you. No extra operating. No extra pushing me away. That ended a very long time in the past. You don’t get to inform me you like me and preserve making an attempt to push me away.”

I’d wish to inform you to fuck off and go sleep at your individual place tonight. Or to go sleep in your truck, for all I care. However I’m not doing that, am I?”

“So, what are you saying?”

“I’m saying that you just pissed me off. You had no proper to do what you probably did. And I’m so freaking mad at you I may scream. A part of me desires to inform you to go away and simply go away me the hell alone. However an even bigger a part of me received’t let me. As a result of I really like you. Though you could be a completely overstepping asshole.”

She lets out a protracted breath and unclenches her fists, wiggling her fingers.
