Chapter 325 Fucking Idiots

ELOISE

“You flinched away from me.

He sounds so hurt. As hurt as he looked.

“And it’s okay, Baby. I don’t blame you for being afraid of me.”

I pause, trying to think what the hell he’s talking about,

He can’t mean…

“Good to bed, Eloise.”

My mouth opens to reply, to tell him he’s a fucking idiot, but loud music vibrates through the door.

“Fucking idiot.” I say it anyway.

It all makes sense now.

It’s stupid. But it all suddenly makes perfect sense.

I was too out of it when I woke up in the hospital to remember, but I had a week alone in my bedroom to relive every moment of that night. The good and the bad.

And I remember waking up on the floor, hearing growls and flesh hitting flesh. And I was terrified that something might have happened to Damon. So I rolled over.

But as soon as I did, my wrist started throbbing. The pain was unbelievable. So much worse than anything else on my body, and it was all I could focus on.

Until Damon was there, right there and reaching for me.

Reaching for my broken arm.

And I did flinch.

But not because I was scared of him.

Because I was hurt. And I knew if he grabbed my hand and I screamed out in pain, he’d freak out.

I let my forehead thud against the wood again. “Stupid fucking idiot,” I whisper it this time.

He’s in there tearing himself apart over something that’s not even true.

I push away from the door.

Good thing I’m not as fragile as he thinks I am.

The phone rings twice before it’s answered

“Hello, Eloise”

“Sebastian.” I take a breath. “I need a favor”

The chuckle he lets out is less terrifying than I remember.

“I thought you’d never ask.”

DAMON.

Warmth seeps into my center and my subconscious relishes the feeling.

I’m still in that place between sleep and wakefulness, in that place where reality can’t hurt me, and yet r know this is the most comfortable I’ve been since…

My mind shoves against me, telling me not to think about that.

Wanting to keep this happiness, fake or not, I let my mind win. Pushing out the bad thoughts as I settle into the calm. Tightening my hold on Eloise.

My hold…

Slowly, like swimming though honey, I piece it together.

The warmth is real.

The feeling of belonging is real.

Eloise in my arms is real.

My eyes snap open. And there, spread out over my chest, is golden hair.

I should push her away. Or pull away, slip out of bed and leave.

I should hold her tighter.

And that’s what I do.

I hold her as close as I can.

I hug her against my side and keep her right where she is.

I breathe her in. Let her soft scent fill my lungs.

Because she’s here.

r

With me.

She’s here and I don’t even know how.

I made sure, double checked, that I was the only one with access to this room.

I’ll take it greedily.

Her left arm is draped over my chest, her brace resting on top of me.

With my free hand, I ghost my fingers over the outline of the uncomfortable rard material.

I’d left the windows uncovered, and the room is filling with early morning light.

I don’t know how long she’s been here, but I feel like I’ve finally slept for the first time in forever.
