Chapter 0079 He stopped the swing long enough forto get on before he started up again. “I’m sorry. You did. something sweet and I didn’t react correctly. I do appreciate what you did for me.” Looping my arm around his, I just laid my head on his shoulder. Still, Alec didn’t move or say anything. “Alec, please? I say anything. Sighing, I really am sorry he didn’t stopped the swing and got off. Leaning over, I gave him a k*ss on the cheek before turning to leave. Tears filled my eyes as Emmy and Jasper cout. “Kristen?” “You guys have fun. I’m going to go for a walk. Going down the steps, I just started walking. I could hear them. “What the f uck, Alec? Jasper asked. “Alec, you can’t be serious? She has already given so much of herself. More than she has ever given anyone and you are going to let this stop you from tonight?” Emmy started in. I deserved it. It was so hard forto open up and here I am, ruining everything that was good in my life. I just walked. The sun was setting and most people were inside eating so I was alone.
There was a little park was just inviting me. Sitting on one of the swings, I let the warm breeze push me. I guess I planned on moving out tomorrow anyway, just didn’t think it would be here. Footsteps slowly started approaching. My heart sank for the second tas it was Emmy, not Alec that cand found me. “Hey girl.”
“Well, I did it this time.” I gave her a sad smile as she sat down, Reaching out, she held my hand. “I get why it’s hard for you but he has been trying.” “I know. I have been too.” “No one sees that more than me.” “He doesn’t want to hear my apology.” I sighed. “He heard you, he just wasn’t ready to move on.” “On the brink bright side, this birthday won’t be any worse than the last ones.” “Give him time, he will caround.” “Before or after tomorrow?” I looked at her. “I think before.” Emmy gavea smile before looking behind me.. Following her eyes, Alec was walking up to me. Emmy got up and gavea huge. “Thank you.” I whispered. “Just let him in. He loves you.” Her words echoed in my ears as she smiled and left. Alec sat down but didn’t say anything. I felt like a dam n child, waiting for my dad to start yelling atagain. “If you want to hearsay sorry again, I will.” I finally broke the silence. “Chere.” Alec pushed my arm with his finger tips. Standing up, I nervously walked up to him. Alec opened his legs and satdown on his lap. Wrapping my arm around his neck, I laid my head on his shoulder. “I’m sorry.” I whispered again. “I just am afraid.” “Of what?” “How much power you have over me.” “Hmm.” “You have done nothing but showkindness and how much you care about me. I know I haven’t given you want you want exactly but I’ve allowed you inside my heart. It may not seems like a lot to you
but you are tearing down my walls. You have this power over me. Constantly on my mind. My b*dy aches for you. I’m sorry if I haven’t given you enough.” “Don’t that. It’s not that it’s not enough. It’s the fact you have little confidence in us being mates.” “That’s not true. I actually have a bet over us.” “What?” “I ran into Calvin at the pool. He was being himself so I made a bet. He owes100 pushups if we are mates.” “Seriously?” “Yup.” “Betting is against the rules,” “Want to sp ank me?” “Get off.” Alec playfully pushedoff him but he stood up and grabbed my hand. “Where are we going?”
