“I’m not going to apologize…” It was the only time the southern came out in that one word, and she didn’t say it
often. She so rarely had a reason to apologize. And this was one of those times she had nothing
to be sorry for, it was all on him.
“Come on talk to me…”
Her blue eyes pierced through him and all he could do was smile. “It’s a simple question; what are you
thinking? I just want to know what is
going on behind those eyes.” Frustration
was building in her voice; her smile was less evident and more serious
now.
Again he smiled even looked away from her for a moment
before he brought his own eyes back to meet hers. It was anything but a simple question, and
she knew that. He had let her in, past
all the walls he thought he had built up to keep people out only to find others
constructed. To keep people from knowing the person he truly was, because to
let people in was to give people a way to hurt him.
“You’re right,” he said, with his smirk of a smile as she
looked away, instantly his hand found her chin raising her gaze back to his
own. “There is always something going on
up here, I am never thinking about just one thing, at times it borders on a
dozen or more things running circles around my head.” He stepped in closer to her and smiled. “I have never met anyone like you. I never planned to feel this way, to let you
in. I even tried to find a way out, to
not feel this way. I am never going to
say truer words to you. I love you. When we are apart, you are always there on my
mind. But when I am with you, looking at
you, talking with you, you are the only thing on my mind.”
