Alyssa had cheated on Adam. That was one shocking bit of information for Adam. It pissed him off and he wanted to just walk away from her but at the same time, it didn't seem to surprise him. The fact that two people never seem to be completely honest and loyal to another was the exact reason why he never dated anyways. And now he was in a relationship with a beautiful girl that he never thought he deserved. Maybe he put her on a pedestal that wasn't really deserved. Maybe, he wasn't sure. He wasn't sure of much of anything.
But as she laid on top of him, purring as he petted her hair adoringly. He found that it was hard to be mad. It happened a long time ago, so he shouldn't be so upset. She hadn't ran when his anger took the best of him and he thought more of her for that alone. Instead she stood begging for him to forgive her. He hadn't of course but he couldn't make himself just leave her neither. She turned to him with her cute face and before he knew it, he was pulled back in. The anger only at the surface ready to break he was sure, but he didn't want to be angry at her. Not Alyssa.
She meant more to him then anyone else in this world and to walk away would mean rock bottom. Though before her, what did he have? Sluts, mostly. It wasn't a bad thing to have a relationship, other than you have to learn to trust someone who can destroy you, you only have to trust that they won't. Which in this moment, with her laying there and him holding her tightly to him, he felt the pain that she could hurt him. She was the first person in a long ass time that could actually hurt him. And that sort of scared him.
He needed time, space. To remember who he was and if a relationship was really what he wanted, what he needed. But that would be pushing her away and walking away and that was hard for him to do to. He sighed, breathing back in the smell of her hair. He closed his eyes trying to remember that smell for as long as his brain will hold it. He loved her. It was true. And she loved him, but sometimes love isn't enough. He was hoping in their instance, it was.
She rubbed her finger softly cross his cheek. He breathed in heavily, letting the breath escape back out slowly. He loved the feel of her touch upon him. It made him feel safe. Made him feel the world stop as if it was only made for the two of them. He felt like he was turning into a girl. Which scared him too. He didn't like that who he was had changed so much. Then again, it was a good change was it not? He wasn't sure of the answer. Before his heart was guarded with all his life, and now it was lying on the floor bleeding. Just waiting to be stepped on again. He put both arms around her and hugged her too him without squeezing too tightly.
"You are the best thing that's happened to me, but now I just don't trust you. I can't shake that feeling. I can't shake the fact that you could hurt me again. I'm just not a relationship guy in the first place. I gave you my heart and you didn't guard it back. I don't know Alyssa. I just don't know." He hugged her tightly to him again. If he was one for tears he was sure a tear would be falling from his own cheeks now. But he wasn't that kinda guy and he knew that would at least never change. He knew how to turn off emotions and walk away and not give a shit again. Part of him wanted to do that here. But the part that cared so much kept her in his arms.
He kissed her forehead again. It was one of his favorite things to do. His affections for her would never change. He tilt his head to one side and lifted her chin to look at him. "I do love you. Remember that no matter what happens," he said staring into her eyes. He wasn't sure how this relationship was gonna do now but staring into her eyes gave him hope. He brushed his lips softly upon hers. Lightly kissing her.
