Xavier released a heavy breath, his eyes boring into mine in a way that almost broke my heart. “Why do you look so sad?” I whispered as my fingers slid down the side of his head, tickling his ear like I’d promised. He nuzzled his nose against my shoulder, and it was like he was aching for this contact. I wrapped my arms around his neck and squeezed him, trying to figure out why the hell I wanted to cry.
Pt 9 Tory and Xavier 🥺
