    in his vale, but i cant pay


    attention to it. The humint


    What is going with each passing cond, and that’s the only thing that my body is focused on. It‘s


    consuming me and swallowing me whole, unlike anything I’ve ever felt in


    There life. It’s too much for my tiny body to handle and I


    can’t stop what happens est, renif i wanted to


    “hidam!”?xNam. “My body feels like it’s on fire!”


    I don’t know what to do to stop the pain, it hurts everywhere, and I just want it to stop. I need someone to


    make it all go maled it to leve now; didn’t want to


    this way, this was torture


    “Please”I cry through the pain. ce top the pain.”


    I blink a couple of time to see multiple emotions


    bombard Adam’s face. I can’t tell what he’s thinking but it


    could just be base I’m distracted.


    Why isn’t he doing anything? Why isn’t he trying to help


    “ADAMI” I scream louder this time


    Something seems to snap in him before he grabs me


    and strolls with me in his arms out the door. I don’t know


    where he’s carrying me as he pushes open another door and


    then another. He stops somewhere, but I’m in too much paini


    to realize where


    ate No


    I’m in loa muh pain to ask him to top, butlu dan’t


    know whether or natin him to. It’s a wonder that may


    mind could still think like this despite all of the parti it’s in.


    He grabs me by my waist and ces me under the w with him. My hands a gainst his bare chest, and


    the


    war iclouding my eyes as it flows down my hexand throughout my entire body.


    I don’t know what’s happening between us, but I know


    that I never want it to stop, not today, not tomorrow, not


    The water flowing throughout my body helps cool the


    zing fire inside me, but I don’t think that’s the real reason,


    Somehow I know that it’s Adam’s presence that’s boline


    the mes. I don’t know how I know this, but I do


    I think that he does too. He somehow knows that I’ll


    need him like this, the only way that I could feel any reliel. How does he know this? Why do I feel like he


    understands


    me better than anyone else does?


    I had so many questions and zero answers. I wanted the


    answers so severely, but more than that, I wanted this man


    in front of me.


    My lips part when he grasps my face in his hands and slowly drags them down my neck. My body goes


    stiff when


    he pulls his hand


    unbeches the day breasts. i


    s ari hear hindrag in a breath, beati don’t thinki held him reht. Ada hardly shown matbildene my thighs


    when he continues to lower his hands on my tury and then to my hias.


    Everywhere his hands‘ touch the firepletely


    diugurs. It’s almost as though his hands te maut.


    I‘m breathing hard when he puts down to his knees in front of me and continues to drag his hands down.


    I feel my body jump when he reaches my thight. I don’t know what


    want, but I definitely don’t want him to stop. I’m carving


    something, and I don’t know how to ask him for it.


    I close my eyes when he


    es past my maut sensitive


    spot. To my disappointment, he doesn’t stop there;


    continues to drag his hands down my legs until


    h


    aches


    my feet


    That’s what all of this is about; it’s just him trying to


    stop the fire from burnine. I dont understand what caused


    my body to malfunction like this. Was it just because i


    touched that golden candlei it couldn’t be, a candle


    shouldn’t be able to do something like that to me.


    Does this have something to do with the fact that i


    couldn’t create fire? Could my body finally be able to emit


    mes? I wasn’t sure what had just happened, but I knew


    that I needed to get answers soon before this ever happened


    to me again.


    Adam gibi up from the ground and turn the shower of Het out while stay in the willin shock. I don’t know it


    I’ll ever be able to recover from tonight. So much happened in such the time.


    I can’t even mention this to my parents because they


    would literally turn to mes them


    . I shouldn’t


    be here, but yet hen i am not only was in Adam’s home.


    but I was also in his bathroom, soaking from head to toe and


    aching from the inside for so much more than he’d ever been


    willing to give to me


    He walks over to me and hands me a towel. Our gazes leck for a few seconds, and that’s all it takes for


    the hups


    to start. Adam jaw clenches, and he take a few steps back from me, almost as though he does not trust


    himself around


    me… Or it could be that he doesn’t trust me around him.


    “I’ll ask my sister to lend you some clothes.”


    That was another prablem. What would I say when


    This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Abigail asked me why I was wearing something totally


    different from what I left the house with. Telling her wouldn’t


    be as bad as telling my family, but I still wasn’t sure that


    wanted anyone to know about the details of this incident.


    Adam takes one more look at me before boling for the


    door. Itake myself out of the bathroom and sit on the edge


    of his bed, cing the towel under me. The picture frames


    on the wall confirmed that this is in fact, his room,


    I was in Adam Ashford’s room. I try not to do a girly


    dare in my head after realiring this mrt. slowly


    He was always a bathtakinely handari person. If I


    We to look back at any of my photos, I would bring a hously I looked Adam didn’t have that problem, he


    has always been


    Mybuchseiffens when I feel his presence behind mit


    He’s so close that can feel his hot breath an my neck


    Why is he this case to me? Does he not know what that does to my body by now?


    “How are you feeling?” He asks. “Is the pain one?”


    i nad my head without tuming around to look at him. I’m still embarrassed from having his hands all over


    my


    I have so many questions that I want to ask him, but I’m


    not sure if he will have the answers that I’m looking for


    “Hey,” he says behind me. “Look at me.”


    I slowly do as he asks, and linhale deeply the moment


    that his face fills my vision once more. Again, I can’t think


    clearly. I’m mesmerized by how his hair falls over his forehead from being wet; how is it possible that he


    looks this good even while being soaked from head to toe? Water is


    dripping down his face, and the same is happening


    throughout the rest of his body, and all I can do is trace each


    droplet with my eyes; I wish that I could use my hands or


    even my mouth, but I somehow find the control that I didn’t


    hun bir


    He w


    Tunely Cooned about me.bi

    elf that may want him to be that way my be allowing


    multo send to him that don’t even exist.


    “I know that this may sound stupid to you, but


    somehow I think that you knew


    thing about what


    happened to my body just now. How did you know that your …”I clear my throat my cheaks turn redder.


    “Your hands on my body would help stop the pain.”


    His jaw clenches and his fise tightens to his sides, and i


    wonder if I’d somehow managed to anger him


    “You said that your skin felt like it was burning ?n


    instinct, I took you to the shower. It’s not me that helped


    you; it was the water.”


    I’m about to respond to him when he hands me the


    clothes. “I think that you should get dressed and leave. I


    know how strict your parents are. You don’t want to stay out


    toote.


    Suddenly, I want to tell him the truth; I want him to


    know that I risked everything to see him here tonight. I’m


    silly for thinking this way, but it’s simply the way that he


    makes me feel.


    I blush, “they don’t know that I’m here.”
