I exhale softly before forcing my eyes to wander up into yours, my heart filled with regret, knowing what I planned to do. I feel your eyes burn into mine, making me feel suddenly vulnerable, your gaze filled with determination. It’s been days since I’ve left my bedroom, my interest in life slowly fading into nothing. Until I felt nothing. I wanted to disappear, to escape and never return yet some part of me wanted to fight.

Why do you care so much? I ask sharply, my words cold with no emotion. I didn’t understand why you stayed for as long as you did. It scared me knowing you weren’t leaving like everyone else. Loki’s eyes darkened, his jaw tightening as I kept my body underneath the comfort of my covers.

You got what you wanted from me.. I added with a glare, as the reminder of us having sex a week ago entered my mind. I wanted to push you, I wanted to hurt you enough to protect my heart and make you leave, yet somehow I never wanted you stay as much as I did now.

Get out of the bed. Loki demanded with no emotion, his tone matching mine, causes shivers to go down my spine.
