Only to wish I hadn’t

His eyes were glued to me, as I knew they had been for aze on me and told myself I didn’t care I hadn’t allowed ht then, and now I knehy

This was supposed to be us, standing in front of our friends and fa loyalty to each other If he hadn’t cheated and twisted our fates, it would have been us

But now, it never would be

A deep feeling of sadness hit hted myself Tears burnedto let them fall

I was only sad at what could have been Our life together would have been so beautiful

But the one I was living noould be even h Shaw’s, and we followed the others out of the clubhouse

Outside, the fresh air driedthe raindrops on et to their vehicles to avoid getting too wet since the reception was being held at the local bar in town A car horn honked, and I turned my head to see the town car that had dropped us off earlier

My heart lifted knowing Re across the wet parking lot toward him The door opened as I drew closer, and he stepped out But his eyes weren’t on me

They were on the guy atchinglot I couldn’t read Reton’s face, but I felt a new tension in the air as the man as my past locked eyes with the man as my present and they had a stare down

I knew then and there that if Reether, they would end up fighting, and I doubted there was anything I could do to stop them It would be a bloodbath While Luca had ton could probably hold his oith my ex

But I didn’t want either of the reception, but ever It would only cause ton as one of their own, but if he got into a fight with Luca, people would pick sides, and I didn’t want more discord between everyone

Sensing Luca behind ton’s arms and kissed him like it had been days since I’d last seen him rather than a little over an hour

When I pulled back, Reton’s eyes locked with mine “Still love me?”

I gasped at the question “Did you think seeing hi you?”
