Thread: What Do You Fear? [randomname98766789 and Amaranthine]

I will never leave you. Bryce focused his attention on the word never. It was not something Bryce said without thinking it through. There were only a handful of people in this entire world Bryce could promise to be with them forever or as long as she would have him, at least. Alicia was most definitely one of those people. I dont want to spend our time regretting the past. I know we lost precious time, but were still here. Now, were together. Things will be different. Honestly, Bryce felt sick to his stomach when recalling previous relationships. How was he so blind? It was almost criminal to Alicia that she had suffered, watching him with other girls. Bryce could not have stood the thought of seeing Alicia with another guy. Thankfully, that was never happening. You know, I liked to think you felt this way. I would think I caught you staring at me for a while longer but then convince myself you would never do that. I always felt sure there must have been other guys better and more interesting. Sometimes, I thought I saw you start to lean forward to kiss me but I convinced myself that was probably not true, either. Now, I understand youve been giving me these hints and Ive been so fucking blind. I promise to make up for that time. Im going to start tonight. You are not leaving my arms until we absolutely have to depart. Even then, I want to hold your hand for as long as I possibly can. I never want to be away from your touch. There was no exaggeration. For some reason, Bryce always thought Alicia might have been a clingy girlfriend. Even before today, she often touched him more than one would expect a friend to do. Now? Bryce was hoping that Alicia would indeed act clingy. It was going to be obvious sooner or later. To be honest, Bryce hoped Alicia never let him go. The things that most guys hated in regards to clinginess were things Bryce adored. Besides, he had a decent idea. She practically begged Bryce with her words, her hand clutching his shirt, and her eyes to never leave her. She showed a couple signs already and Bryce wanted to see how far that desire ran. --------------------- I dont think theres another choice. Where could Nick get the drugs now? His dealer was dead and this ship was not exactly loaded with anything. His addiction would have to focus on something else. Because of that, Nick knew he was about to enter into a world of shit just as he warned Madison days ago. So far, Nick was composed. The willpower to hold his tongue slowly diminished. Typically, Nick Clark was calm and collected. Not much could grind his gears or get underneath his skin. Anna, however, always managed to piss him off with small things. Their deteriorated relationship was not minor so one could imagine how testy Nick felt while thinking about it. Unable to hold back any longer, he said something. Im surprised youd be worried about me being alright. It never appeared to bother you before if I was or if I wasnt. The tension was thick. Nick was not even looking at Anna right now but he could picture her facial expression. She did have a fiery temper and a tongue ready to lash out. Nick expected nothing different. They fought all the time even as a couple. It only felt normal to fight again about something. Finally, the male turned his attention towards his ex-girlfriend, ready to take whatever she was throwing his way.
