Chapter 71 - Chapter Seventy: The Weakness.

Damien's POV ♣️.

I peeled my eyes open and sat up. I was shirtless but I was still wearing my suit trousers.

What happened?

I ran my hand through my hair and took in a deep breath. I paused.

She had been here. I could smell her.

I scurried out of bed and walked out of my room towards the living room hoping she would be there. But I was met with my lazy ass best friend instead.

" And sleeping beauty awakens!"

" Fuck off." I muttered as I walked back to my room.

***

" Agent Myers!" Clyde exclaimed in surprise.

" Hey Clyde."

" What are you doing here?, We usually have today off, remember?"

" Oh!, Yeah!"

" So how are you feeling?, Any weird side effects?"

" No. Not really."

" Interesting." She mumbled.

" No headache, no sudden urge to vomit?" She paused,

" Basically any sign of an hangover?"

" No, I feel perfectly fine. I'm just not sure of the things I said. Everything's kind of blurry."

" Well that's a relief. But as for your memories, Kim is the only one who can help you with that."

" Thank you."

" No, thank you."

***

I bumped into Rosa on my way into Kimia's apartment building.

" Damien?!"

" Hey Rosa." I replied nervously.

" Is she...uhm, is she home?"

" Yes. Yes she is. But you'll need my help getting in to the building. No strangers allowed."

" Right."

She used her key card to buzz me in.

" Thank you."

" You're welcome. But Damien?"

" Yes?"

" I'm letting you in because I want what's best for my best friend. If you ever hurt her again, I will end you." She said.

" I won't. I promise."

She gave me her key card so I could use it to unlock the door.

" Did you forget anythi..."

Her voice trailed off as she saw me standing.

" Damien." She greeted akwardly clearing her throat.

I tried really hard to maintain eye contact but I failed miserably. My eyes trailed down her body and stopped at her long legs that was left exposed by the shirt she wore.

My shirt.

" What are you doing here?" She asked folding her arms causing the shirt to ride up a little.

Damn!

" I came to see you." I replied hoarsely.

" Please leave." She said quietly looking down.

" Kimia." I called moving closer to her.

" You can't keep doing this to me."

" You promised you'd stay away."

" I did."

" Then why are you here?"

" I don't know." I laughed.

" I don't know why I'm here! Why do I keep coming back?!"

She lifted her gaze from the ground to me.

" Maybe it's cause I'm in love with you."

" I just want to hear you say it. I want you to tell me you're in love with me or that you love me! I'll take anything I can get."

She moved past me and walked out of the kitchen. I followed her into her room.

" Damien please…just" she sighed.

I looked around the room and was surprised to see our picture, the one Fransisco took of us kissing, framed on her night stand. I picked it up and turned to her.

" Why did you keep it?"

" I-I, I don't know." She replied.

" Mia why are you fighting it?, Why are you fighting us? I know…I know you care-"

" Because I'm scared okay!" She exclaimed.

" Not once, but twice I've had my heart broken. I'm not ready to give myself up to that hurt. Not again."

" Mia I didn't-"

" You keep saying that but it doesn't take away the hurt!" Her eyes began to water.

" You hurt me. A lot. I've forgiven you but, I just can't forget. And I tried! I swear I have tried. But I just can't! I'm so in love with you yet each time I see you it hurts!" She cried.

" Let me heal you. Let me take away the pain that I caused you." I pleaded pulling her closer. She tried to push me away but I held on tightly. She punched, pushed, kicked…but I didn't budge. She eventually relaxed and started crying. A couple tears escaped my eyes as I leaned down to kiss her tears.

She shivered but not from the cold.

My Mia

My love

My heart

My weakness.

She looked up at me with glossy eyes and my heart broke a little again.

" I'm sorry for ever hurting you. I promise to spend the rest of my life making it up to you-"

" Damien."

" I- hmm?"

" Shut up and kiss me already."

" As you wish."

I held her face in my hands and kissed her deeply. She clutched the front of my shirt with one hand and rested the other on my chest where my heart laid. My hands left her face to roam her body while her hands locked around my neck. Her legs locked around my waist and my hands held her thighs in place.

She was my oxygen. I needed and I still need her to survive.

" I love you." She breathed out as my lips attached to her neck.

" You already know how I feel babe. I'm in love with you." I replied sucking on her skin again.

" Damien." She moaned and I grinned.

" Have I told you how much I've missed the sound of you moaning my name?"

" Damien!" She moaned even louder tugging on my hair as I placed a wet kiss on the swell of her breasts.

" Let's see how louder you can get."
