“I was jealous, okay? I’m jealous because he looks at you like he wants to fuck you.” His jaw ticked.
“Talking about what, bookworm?”
“You. Talking about you. Oh my god. You’re so pushy.”
“Jesus fucking Christ, bookworm, where’d you learn to kiss like this,” Wyatt groaned against my mouth in between kisses. “I thought about you all fucking night. All day. I was going insane, thinking about his hands on you.”
So he was jealous because someone else was playing with his toy.
“Because I liked the idea of it.” My brain skidded like it was slipping on ice. “But you…” I wasn’t sure how to word it. “Yeah, I know.” His teeth scored my skin and I sucked a breath in. “Just wanted you to know that.”
He thought about us married, though. Wyatt. The guy who didn’t believe in long-term love.
“Why did you read it?” His expression softened. “It’s your favorite. I wanted a peek inside that brain of yours.”
“I’m falling for you, bookworm.” He whispered the words against the back of my head in the dark.
I’m falling for you, bookworm.
“Miri, please stop interrogating my girlfriend.” Wyatt towered over the table with two new salt-rimmed drinks and a smirk. Girlfriend? My stomach rolled forward.
“You’ve created a monster,” I told Wyatt. “She’s going to be disappointed when you leave.”
This is for making me fall head over fucking heels for you. His words played in my mind.
I
was the one who was different. I was the one who was head over fucking heels for her. I was in love with her. It was the last thing I ever wanted, and yet it was goddamned heaven.
“I’m coming with you if the offer still stands. Wherever you go, I want to be there too, because I love you. And I’m in love with you. I lied when I said you were my practice guy.” Her face crumpled. “That was a terrible, terrible lie, and I said it because I wanted to make it sound like you didn’t mean anything but you do.” Her gaze lifted to me, pained and full of affection. “You mean everything to me. I want to be brave with you.”
“Before I tell you how much I love you, before I tell you that you are the love of my fucking life and that you’re a part of me, I want to tell you that I realized something.”
I had so much to lose with him, but I was going to be brave and love him with my whole heart.
