He stopped the swing long enough for me to 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 came out.
“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.

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 time
as it was Emmy, not Alec that came and 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 come around.”
“Before or after tomorrow?” I looked at her.
“I think before.” Emmy gave me a smile before looking behind me..
Following her eyes, Alec was walking up to me. Emmy got up and gave me a 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 at me again. “If you want to
hear me say sorry
again, I will.” I finally broke the silence.
“Come here.” Alec pushed my arm with his finger tips. Standing up, I nervously walked up
to him. Alec
opened his legs and sat me down 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.”

“How much power you have over me.”
“Hmm.”
“You have done nothing but show me kindness 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 owes me 100
pushups if we are
mates.”
“Seriously?”
“Yup.”
“Betting is against the rules,”
“Want to sp ank me?”
“Get off.” Alec playfully pushed me off him but he stood up and grabbed my hand.
“Where are we going?”
