32 ??Just another day?? (2/2)
I remembered the text Zayn had sent to me last night. I had tried to stay upstairs with my parents as long as I could but I had to return to my room at some point and well . . . Ammar was here. So we did sleep together. Not like that. But . . . well. Never mind.
I sat beside Ammar and finally he tossed me a glance, eyes falling to my hair. Then up. Why did I feel the need to run away? I knew why. He had treated so bad for so long.
Not anymore.
But I had to be smart if I wanted him out of my life forever.
”Just one more day? Please, Ammar. I'll do as you say after that.”
His eyes roved over my face, a hunter looking at his meal. I scooted back a little.
”Please,” I repeated. ”Just today. I need that much.”
His eyes narrowed.
I placed my hand over his leg, sweating profusely. Wanting to pull my hand away. I felt so dirty. Felt so much like my mother at that moment. Wasn't this called manipulation?
Remember what he did to you, Leia.
He sighed. ”Why do I think you're hiding something?” He searched my face. ”I swear, Leia, I won't be nice if I find out you're doing something behind my back.”
I swallowed my fear. ”I'm not.”
He stared for some time more then finally nodded. ”Just today.”
”Just today,” I repeated, a relieved smile taking over my face.
