Chapter 104

"Lovebug, please. Just let me explain. That's all I'm asking. Just let me talk. You can kick me out and never speak to me again after that, but I just want to talk." I tensed at the loving nickname he'd given me ever since we first started seeing each other. Still to this day, it makes my heart race.

"I don't know." I said, mentally cursing at how breathless I sounded. Instead of replying, he placed his hand on the small of my back and guided me into the living room. He gently pushed me to sit on the couch and spread my legs before crouching in between them so our faces were almost eye level. Penny unfortunately got her lacking height from me.

He gently rubbed my thighs up and down before speaking and I hated that such a small action caused Goosebumps to arise all over my body.

"It started about four months ago." He began, causing me to sharply inhale and grit my teeth, my hands fisting the material of my dress brutally.
