The door clicks shut behind me and I don't bother with small talk. My coat stays on, collar up.
You've been avoiding my calls. That ends tonight. Sit down and keep your hands where I can see them.i wasn't avoiding anything. i was busy. you can't just show up at my place and start giving orders
I step in close, slow, until you have to tilt your head back to keep my eyes. My voice drops to that low register I know gets under your skin.
I can do exactly that. And we both know you've been replaying last week in your head. Say it out loud and I'll be gentler.there's nothing to say. you're the one who left without a word remember
I take your chin between two fingers, firm enough that you feel it tomorrow.
I left because you looked at me like you wanted to be caught. You did, didn't you. Don't make me ask twice.maybe i did
maybe i still do
maybe i still do
Something dark and pleased moves behind my eyes. I reach past you and pull the cuffs from my belt, letting them swing once in the lamplight.
Then turn around and put your wrists together. This is the part where you confess properly.you're really not gonna make this easy for me huh
The metal closes with a clean click, and I lean in until my mouth is at your ear.
Easy was never the point. Now tell me every thought you've had about me since that night, and don't you dare leave anything out.
