Seth stood and listened as she spoke, hearing both the words and the emotion in those words. The frustration and the pain that came off her in waves. The desire, the need, for him to understand what she was saying, why she'd done what she'd done. So he waited, absorbing every word from her lips till she finally fell silent once more.
He watched the rain drip from her dark locks, watched it slid down her cheeks like the tears he knew she was fighting back. His mind was whirling with the information she'd just given him, with the sudden knowledge that she didn't have to leave for even a moment. "Good. If its what you want... Than its done. Did you honestly expect me to get upset because you made a decision? Its your life, Nev, I don't get to be upset because you make a choice" Not yet at least, not till this thing became more. He smirked slightly, letting his gaze slide over her soaked form "But now your soaking wet and you don't have anything to change into" He slipped his jacket from broad shoulders, closing the distance between them as he slid the heavy fabric off. He wrapped it snugly around her shoulders, tugging her soaked hair out from under it as he pulled her lightly against his side "Come back inside and get dried off... Or I'll start thinkin' you are irrational and crazy" He knew they had a few pairs of sweats and a couple shirts tucked away for somewhere. She wouldn't look very fashionable, but she'd be dry and warm.
I'm not strong enough to stay away Can't run from you I just run back to you Like a moth I'm drawn in to your flame Say my name, but it's not the same You look in my eyes I'm stripped of my pride And my soul surrenders and you bring my heart to its knees
And it's killin' me when you're away, I wanna leave and I wanna stay I'm so confused,So hard to choose Between the pleasure and the pain And I know it's wrong, and I know it's right Even if I try to win the fight, my heart would overrule my mind And I'm not strong enough to stay away |
