My heart is thudding
in my chest and my palms feel sweaty. I don’t think I’ve ever been this
nervous.
“Jacob. What are you
doing here?” Sam asks. I come to a stop in front of her and my smile drops at
the tone of her voice.
“I just happened to
be on my way to your house, when I spotted you sitting here.” I notice Lily’s
body visibly relax out of the corner of my eye. Poor thing thought I would sell
her out. No way in hell would I do that, not when I owe her the world for
telling me where to find Sam.
“Why were you on your
way to my house?” Sam cocks her head to the side in confusion.
“I needed to talk to
you after everything that’s happened. Can I just have a few minutes?” I plead
with her. I don’t care if it makes me look pathetic. It’s do or die at this
moment.
Sam looks unsure and
nervous for a few seconds. I release the breath I didn’t realize I was holding
when she nods her assent and hands the baby to Lily.
“I’ll only be a
minute, Lily. Can you just watch Tessa for me?”
“Take your time.”
Lily stands holding Tessa and murmurs low to the baby, walking over to the
swings.
I sit next to Sam on
the bench and angle my body towards her. I catch her scent on a light breeze
and it brings back so many memories.
Sam stares at me
silently, waiting for me to speak. She seems weary of my presence. We never
used to be this way around one another. I guess it’s all the cheap shots and
low blows we’ve dealt out over the last year, making her react to me this way.
“Did you hear about
Brooke and Aiden?” I ask right off the bat. No sense in beating around the
bush. Besides, I don’t want to let on that Lily overheard them fighting and
spilled the beans to me about it.
“I did,” she says
quietly and gives me a sad half smile. “I’m really sorry about what happened.
Aiden told me the hell Brooke put you through. I can’t even imagine what it
must have been like for you to discover the depth of her deception.”
Sam’s hands start to
fidget with the baby blanket resting partially on her leg. I reach over and
cover them with my own, squeezing them gently.
“Thank you. But I
should be apologizing to you for allowing her to come between us.”
She glances down at
our hands and looks up with tear filled eyes and shakes her head. When she
doesn’t say anything I decide to continue with my plan.
“I still love you
Sam.” At my words her eyes close, her face looks as if she’s in tremendous
pain. “Do you… do you think we could try? I’ve gone over it a million times. If
Brooke and Aiden hadn’t conspired to keep us apart, when you left Aiden and
came to me, we could have been together. We could still be together.”
“I -” she starts and
then stops. She looks down again and stares at our hands again for so long, I’m
afraid she isn’t going to answer. Why isn’t she answering? Please God, let her
answer!
“Jake. I’ll always
love you.” Her words make my heart soar.
“Then say you’ll be
with me. Say you’ll let me love you forever. Say you’ll make me whole again,” I
beg her, while inching my way closer to her on the bench.
I raise my arm and
rest my hand on the side of her neck, tilting her head up towards me. My thumb
sweeps across her jaw while I search her eyes for consent. When her face turns
up slightly and her lips part just a touch, I decide to take that as my green
light. I lean forward and brush my lips gently against hers. I instantly feel
the sensation that I always feel when I’m with her. The one that has my stomach
dropping and my dick stirring.
Lost in the moment,
my lips find hers again. This time I put more pressure on her mouth. My tongue
slowly glides along her bottom lip, remembering the taste of her. Her lips part
and my tongue slides inside alongside hers. My other hand leaves her hands and
cradles the opposite side of her face, so that both my hands are now holding on
to her for dear life. I tilt her head and deepen the kiss. My tongue explores
every inch of her mouth, seeking, tasting, memorizing the feel of it.
The rest of the world
melts away. It’s just her and me. The sounds of kids playing and birds chirping
fade. All I can hear is the light rasps of our breathing and the small little
moan that she’s making. Finding the willpower, I pull away from her delicious
mouth and rest my forehead against hers. My hands tense on her face while I try
to find my composure. That kiss has just turned me inside out.
