IITS ch22
A/n: Let's take a peek at Lonerward's thoughts, shall we?
EPOV
I had never felt the urge to kiss Bella more than I did in that moment. She seemed to just 'get me' and always made me feel at ease.
"Six-thirty seems fine." I answered and smiled.
"I'll need your address though, so I can pick the two of you up." I said with a laugh as she blushed.
"Oh, yeah...that would probably be helpful." She laughed in return and started to search through her bag for something to write on. Once she found a slip of paper and wrote her information on it our hands connected as I took it from her.
Her skin was so smooth and soft. I wanted to wrap her hand in mine and never let it go.
But, I kept reminding myself that she had plans to move away. I couldn't let myself fall for her; I had to remember that we were just friends. Nothing more.
That thought made me incredibly sad.
"I should get going so I can pick her up and head home to get ready. See you soon." She said with a smile and then got into her car.
I just stood there and watched her as she backed out and then drove away.
Suddenly, I thought about what it would be like to have her to go home to every night.
It's all I had ever wanted; a family of my own.
I dreaded the thought of it never coming true for me, another bout of loneliness settled over me. Not even the prospect of my impending dinner date could drag it out of me.
Maybe I was just destined to be alone for all of my life.
"So, you beat me to the punch, I see?" I heard Liam's voice behind me and closed my eyes.
"Yes, it appears so." I said and then started to walk towards my car.
"Lucky bastard." He laughed behind me and I was never so glad to reach the confines of my car.
If he only knew how just unlucky I was...it felt like I had won the lottery but thrown away the ticket.
A/n: Lonerward still has a long way to go;( Let's see if a little bundle of sunshine can raise his spirits;)
See ya soon, Kyla
