❝Painful confessions❞

.•*•.

When the kiss breaks I look into his eyes and I can tell that he knows what I'm about to ask him next. He sighs but not once does he let go of me and neither do I want him to. "I hired Colt to know if you were truly as miserable here as you looked and if you wanted to go away with him. But when you choose to stay, I felt hope yet he told me you were hurt. He never told me what you two talk about but he felt guilty about it" He begins to explain.

I feel the pang of hurt in my chest. How could he do this to me? How could they do this to me? I've been made a fool by both of them and I feel betrayed. Not only by Colt as he never cared about me in the first place but also Sebastian. Why did he not just ask me how I felt? He did not have to hire someone to act like my friend so I'd tell them everything about me and what has happened. I feel so stupid and ridiculous to have trusted either of them.

This is making me madder with each word that he speaks and it's only going to make me more angrier, perhaps that was the point with the kiss, to ease the information into me after a heavenly kiss like that. "He refused my money and decided to stay here and according to him to let the ship sail and never allow it to sink" He finishes and I give him a confused look. I've no idea what he means by that but that does sound like something that Cold say even when it doesn't make sense, which is sort of what he just does. 1

"I'm not going to forgive you for this... both of you" I tell him, it's the truth. They have betrayed me in ways that I would've never thought of. I thought Colt was my friend because he wanted to but he's just a spy for my husband who clearly doesn't trust me. "That is to be expected and therefore I will make it up to you" He tells me, I think he may have done that by kissing me but that part I'm not going to tell him as I really want to know how he would make it up to me.

I'm angrier than I've ever been at him. "How?" I ask him. He searches his pocket and takes out something. When he shows it to me, I gasp. It's a Christmas ornament charm. An angel one with wings that goes on a Christmas tree, it looks rather old as the paint is coming of on the edges. "When I was a child, my mother and I would decorate the tree. This was hers. She made it herself and gave it to me to put on the tree" He tells me. 6

The anger that was inside me seems to disappear when he says that. It's the first thing that he has told me about his childhood and even him in the first place as I barely even know who he is or who he was as a child. "She loved making these, gave them to children at an orphanage. But, this was the best one she ever made and she told me to always keep it and put it on the tree. But she stopped making these when I was twelve. Told me it was stupid and she hated these. She took it out of my hands and there it in the trash" He tells me.

"When my parents went to sleep I went to the kitchen and dug this out of the trash and ever since then, I've kept it hidden. Never put it on the tree but I took it up every Christmas, to remind myself that even angels are cast aside" He tells me and while I may not understand that last sentence I feel my heart ache for him. This is so sad. His mother does sound like she loved doing this but I wonder why she stopped doing what she loves.

"Ever since then, I've never decorated after that but for you, I would do anything. For you, I would put this up. This time to remind me that an angel already landed in my arms and I'm never letting go again" He whispers to me. He hands me the angel charm and I take it and hold it with gentleness and I make sure to not ruin it. This is something that means the world to him. I give him a smile. "You want to decorate with me, even when it will cause you pain from the past?" I ask him. 8

"Fawn, make no mistake. There is nothing in this world that I wouldn't do to make you happy and if this makes you happy, then I will do it" He tells me. The blush appears on my cheeks but not once do I let my eyes wander away from his. My heart is speeding up but in a good way as I feel myself only wanting to be in his arms. He has been truthful to me and I think I should be truthful to him now. "Colt and I never actually slept together. I'm still... a virgin" I confess after a silence had taken over us.

I see his face change to shock as he looks at me in the eyes to ask if it is the truth and I know my eyes tell him that it is because that is the truth in its purest form. It makes me feel strange to admit that to him as I've never said those words out loud and I'm not talking about the part with Colt, the other part. I've always felt ashamed by it because all of my former friends lost theirs when they were about thirteen or fourteen and I'm eighteen and I still have it. His hand lifts my fingers with his thumb making me look at him as I had looked down in shame before.
