This chapter is dedicated to @Qpula637! Thank you so much for the supergift!
Meanwhile, back at the bathroom…
The atmosphere in there was the complete opposite of the blissfulness and laughter that was going on in the backyard. If it was sunshine and blue skies outside, there was rain and gloom inside that bathroom.
Zeke bent over and laid his head into the crook of Alicia ’s neck. His arms braced against the expensive tiles, trapping Alicia between them. His body was so incredibly stiff, and his veins were clearly visible as they had popped out from his skin.
He had yet to say a word after Alicia ’s outburst. He just stood there, head bent and keeping quiet. It seemed that for the moment, he had gone back to his solemn and silent persona from before.
The silence was torturous for Alicia. The feel of his body was so tense, the sounds of his shallow breathing and his unnaturally fast heartbeat… Alicia could already feel the agony that was seeping into her bones.
And she could only silently tear up again as she gently lifted her arms and hugged his head that was bent over, weaving her fingers gently through his dark hair knowing full well what her confession had done to him. How it would have affected him.
She was the one who told him that she would not force him to choose her. She had told him she had never wanted him to betray his brother. That no matter what happens, Ezekiel would not be like his father. That he would never sacrifice anyone in the name of love. And yet she…
”I ’m sorry… ” she choked out. ”I ’m so very sorry… ”
But her teary apologies only made him stiffen up even more. She could feel his already tense muscles tightening up, clenching and unclenching – as though he was trying to get himself to relax.
”Stop… don ’t apologize anymore. ” he finally spoke. His voice tight. ”You have nothing to be sorry about, Alicia. ”
