The sound of the water from the shower was a little comforting. U stared at it as it dripped from my bare skin down to the tiled floor.
"I did it," I muttered, tears flowing from my eyes. I cried while running a hand through my hair. The cold water made me imagine that I was standing in the rain outside instead of being trapped inside the bathroom/
I lost track of time and I barely noticed someone coming in until the water was turned off. Then, gentle hands wrapped around my waist.
Jace's scent registered in my sense of smell. He pulled me closer o him, his shirt getting soaked.
Instead of the tears going back, they fell even more. He didn't try to shush me. Jace just held me there.
It wasn't until my sobs began to fade that he wrapped me in a towel and kissed my cheek, slowly dragging me out of the shower.
