For you.
For her.
Our eyes met, green on green, and he winked at me from across the room. And just like that, I was ruined.
“You can’t tell me what to do, Joe,” I growled, feeling a combination of drunk and dizzy. “You don’t own me.” “Well, that’s bad fucking luck on my account, because you sure as shit own me!” Drunk or not, his words hit me like a wrecking ball to the chest. Feeling the air whoosh from my lungs, I glared up at him, feeling a torrent of emotions crashing through me. “Why would you say that to me?” “Because it’s the truth.” “Since when?” “Since I was twelve.”
Because every part of me loved every part of her. The good, the bad, and the ugly.
this girl was by far my greatest addiction.
“There’s no decision to make,” he blew my mind by saying, green eyes blazing with heat. “You already know it’s you.”
“It’s you,” he repeated gruffly, fingers tightening on my waist. “I pick you. Every single time.”
“I’ll love you the right way this time,” he whispered, and his breath fanned my cheek. “If you’ll show me how.”
To me.
“Because I’m only doing life for you.”
“Don’t want to do this whole life gig without you, Molloy.”
“He took her away from me.”
I had come to the realization that Aoife Molloy had become the single most important person in my world.
Because I only want Joey.
Say it. Please say it. Two words. That’s all I need.
“Everything I did, all of the changes that I made, I made for you
“I’m only here for you,”
You’re the only one.
“You’re all I care about,” I snapped, pushing my hair back. “Fuck, you’re all I’ve ever cared about, Molloy. You know that.”
Back home.
Still wanting her more than I wanted to live.
“And I don’t want to,” he whispered, dropping his head. “I don’t want a life without you in it.”
He had them? My kids? He had them? “You got them out
“It was my job to keep her safe.”
Yeah, she was my only exception.
It was her. It always had been. It always would be. The girl from the wall.
