"You want some coffee?" I asked as I rubbed my forehead.
I felt like I'd go crazy if I didn't take a break from my crazy thoughts!
I had never been so confused in my life!
"Wow! A coffee date!" He said, "I didn't expect this conversation to head in this direction!"
He was just impossible!
"It's not a coffee date!" I said, "I'm just offering you some coffee!"
"Damn! I thought my plan was finally working!" He said with a straight face.
Was I really falling for this man? He made me go insane, and not in a good way!
"I still don't get it," I said as I handed him the cup of coffee, "Why were you so upset when I got married to Carlisle?"
He smiled.
"It's better if we do not go there," he said, "I don't know if any explanation is going to be enough for my actions."
"I just couldn't understand why you would marry him so suddenly!" He said, "And as I said before, I really liked you, whether you like to believe it or not."
Yeah, he had told me that before, and I didn't believe him at that time.
But the same thing was feeling very different today.
I wanted to believe him today.
It wasn't making me angry.
Instead, it was doing some unknown things to my heart!
"I went crazy with jealousy! I didn't know who I had become!" He said, "Let me be very honest. I didn't really give a damn about the fact that he had left everything to you. It was never about money! I was just angry that why would you marry him when you knew he only had a few days left!"
He already had the answer, even though not everyone would be able to understand it!
I had married him only because he had a few days left!
"It was none of my business who you got married to. It was none of my business to call you by names. I should have known better," he sighed, "But... I can't change the past. It's just that I'll have to pay for it for the rest of my life!"
"Pay for it for the rest of your life?" I shook my head, "Aren't you exaggerating?"
"You won't call it an exaggeration if you know how I really feel about you," he said, "I also know what you think of me, and at the same time I know that I can't blame you."
I had never seen him so sincere about anything.
I wanted to believe him.
"I like you. I really do. More than I'd have preferred." He sighed, "I don't know when exactly this started... I don't know how and when my feelings became so intense... I don't know anything apart from the fact that I have ever felt like this ever before," He said as he looked into my eyes.
Nobody had ever looked so intensely at me!
It's like it set my heart on fire!
I took a deep breath and roamed my hand in my hair.
"I know you won't believe me," he said as he also put his cup beside mine on the kitchen island, "But I'm telling nothing but the truth."
I didn't know what to think.
I needed to think about what this really meant.
I needed to figure out my feelings.
But I was tired.
I was constantly fighting with myself since last night, and I didn't have any more strength to think or fight or argue, with him or with myself.
I wasn't sure what was the right thing to do.
Wrapping up my arms around his neck and pressing my lips to his certainly wasn't, but I did it anyway!
A/N: I wasn't sure if you were exhausted reading the last few chapters or not, but I certainly was while writing them! Lol
