THE MOMENT THE WORDS LEFT HER MOUTH, she couldn't take them back. She didn't want to because she alway wanted to be kissed by him. Grayson closed his eyes and pulled his arms away from around her waist. "I can't."
There he goes again. It didn't come as a surprise to her, his behaviour she means.
"Why?" She watched as he brought his palms to his face. The look of distress upon his face told something different, like he was fighting some sort of demon inside of him. Maybe he was...
"I- I just can't."
Well, that made things clearer. Alison tried to understand him but he just made it so damn difficult, he was a puzzle she couldn't figure out.
"Okay." She says, there was no point pushing him to do something he didn't want to, it wouldn't be right. But what she did do was hold the rose he had given closer to her and smiled, hoping the hurt she felt didn't show. Her happiness always seemed to come to an end pretty quickly.
