Chapter 50: Don't you want me?
Adrian's voice trembled with emotion, tears streaming down his cheeks. He held onto Noah tightly, as if clinging to a lifeline in a storm. He knew that if he let go, he would be plunged back into the depths of despair once more. The pain of waiting for Noah the previous night had been unbearable, and he couldn't bear to experience that anguish again, just like he did six years ago.
Noah's mind was reeling as he held onto Adrian, his heart aching with the flood of emotions swirling inside him. Tears streamed down his face as he buried his face in the crook of Adrian's neck, seeking solace in his embrace.
"I won't leave you. It was hard for me too," Noah finally whispered, his voice trembling with emotion.
Adrian tightened his arms around Noah, as if trying to envelop him completely in his love. "I love you," Adrian added softly, his words a testament to the depth of his feelings.
