BITELESS CHAPTER 20

Hey,
Here's chapter 20!!!!

Chapter 20

Damien drove us to his summer house and took me into the kitchen. The bruise on my face started to sting, so I hissed. Ouch!
“Are you ok?” He asked me.
“Yeah” No! No! No! It really hurts! He wasn’t convinced with my answer.
“It hurts doesn’t it?” I nodded “Let me get some ice” Damien placed the ice on my bruise and I nearly screamed. I let out a small whimper of pain and he grabbed my hand. “It’s alright. I know it hurts, but it will stop” The pain started to ease. “Better?”
“Yes, thanks”
“Just hold that on there for a second” I held the cloth filled with ice to my cheek and he opened a cupboard. What was he doing?
“What are you doing?” I asked
“Getting something to stop the pain” He pulled out a small plastic tub and handed me two small tablets “Take these” I swallowed them dry. “Good girl”
“Would you like me to go? I’ll walk home” I knew he didn’t want me there.
“What? No! I’m not letting you go back there! Sam wants you and that’s not going to happen” Damien shouted. Ughhh why did he have to make things worse?
“I don’t want you to have to do this” Why was he doing this? I cheated on him and he wanted me to stay here? That didn’t make sense.
“Why?” He asked, slightly confused.
“You look at me like I’m the worst thing ever and you know what? I am the worst thing ever” I was almost screaming.
“You’re not” Damien replied quietly and calmly. “People have done worse things than you” I couldn’t look at him, so I stared at the floor. My hands shook slightly and he knelt down next to my chair. No don’t look at me.
“I’m so stupid” It’s true, I’m stupid and he knows it too.
“You’re not stupid, you’re smart”
“How? Tell me how am I smart? I thought you were cheating on me, so I cheated on you. Why didn’t I trust you? You trusted me” I cried.
“It’s alright princess” He rubbed my shoulder
“But it’s not alright. I can’t ever be with you again, can I?” Stupid question! Now be ready for heartbreak!
“I want you to be my girlfriend again” I stayed silent. What the hell? I thought he hated me. “Will you be my girlfriend again?”
“Yes” Damien kissed me and I laughed.
“That’s the second best sound I’ve ever heard”
“Second best? What’s the first?” I asked
“Your voice when you’re happy” I smiled
“I love you”
“I love you too”
“I’m so sleepy” I yawned loudly
“Do you want to go to bed?” He asked me. You sounds so singular. Does this mean he’s not coming?
“Only if you come with me” Please! Don’t sound so desperate Christine!
“Ok” He grabbed my waist and lifted me up into his arms. Huh? Oh my gosh! I hated this.
“Eek what are you doing?” I squeaked.
“Taking you to bed” Not this way, don’t pick me up. Eek!
“Put me down” I ordered while giggling.
“I think I’ll pass on that” Ughhh!
“What? No” Damien walked down the hall way and carried me upstairs. “Put me down”
“Nope”
“Then you know what?” I said.
“What?” His seductive smile made me giggle.
“I’m just going to have to kiss you”
“Kiss me then” I leaned up and kissed him softly.
“Don’t let me go” I whispered into his lips.
“I won’t. You’re too precious. I’d rather die let you go” I kissed him and he tightened his grip on me. He sat on the floor and I still lay in his arms, the kiss didn’t break. “Princess?”
“Yes”
“You look tired”
“I am”
“Come on. Let’s get you in bed” Damien stood up and put me on the bed. I lay down and he put his arm around me. Tired! I fell asleep…
