Chapter 21 (Devin, Adam and No more talking.)

***Devin’s POV***

I found Adam’s letter when I got home, that little piece of shit decided that he was leaving me. No one is going to leave me, I am going to track him down and kick his cowardly ass all the way back home.
As for Laura she is going to see it my way, I am not going to give her any other choice. Once she see’s that there is nothing in that city to hold her there and that leaving me was a bad mistake she will come running home to.
I have already started rumors about her at her new hospital, it is only a matter of time before they begin to disrupt her life. I still couldn’t get in touch with the hospitals CEO, but it is only a matter of time before he takes my call. Once he realizes who my father is he will reach out to me to find out what I have to tell him.
I also found out that she is applying to adopt one of her patients, she is truly misguided about what the right things to are, you don’t adopt kids, those who don’t have parents go to the orphanage or the street.
Sending a letter to family services in charge of the adoption was a bold move on my part, she will be angry with me, but she will learn where her place is in this world; you don’t go and mingle with the nobodies of the world.
I have a few days off from the hospital, I was hoping to spend some alone time with Adam now I have to go and hunt is sill ass down. I know where he has run off to, I just hope that I can get past Mr. Roberts, that guy knows way too much, you can tell when he looks at you that he knows. Gives me the creeps, Adam will see reason I am sure, after all he loves me.
Besides even if Laura won’t come back, I have a back up plan now. A way for me and Adam to be together free of my dear old fathers scrutiny.

***Adam’s POV***

I know that I am being a coward about all this, I should have stood up to Devin a long time ago. Even knowing that he was manipulating me, I still wouldn’t do anything, love is truly blind. I know now that he may love me in some way, but he doesn’t love me like I love him.
I am not even sure he is capable of true love anyway, he always had a love for himself and his interests. I thought that that was a good thing, that old saying if you want someone to love you then love yourself first. That is true but in Devin’s case I think he has taken it way to far and I think the only one he can truly love is himself and only himself.
Stupid, I was so stupid and look at the mess I have made of things, it has cost me my sister, possibly my whole family, well my mother for certain anyway. When she found out I was leaving Devin she screeched holy murder.
Telling me that I was be childish and selfish, I come to realize in that moment that she is just like Devin in their manner of seeing the world, it is always about them never anyone else unless that person can give them something they want or need.
I was going to stay at our family home but after the fight with my mother I come to realize that I had to do what my sister had done, I grabbed what was mine and left. I decided to drive to New York, Devin doesn’t know about my college friends that live there, they already said that they had a place for me to stay while I get back on my feet.
Tears were rolling down my face as I said goodbye to my old life, I am not sure where I am going in life right now but I know it isn’t back to Devin. Maybe someday I will have my family back. I have no one to blame but myself, I thought that being gay was something that I had to keep away from my family.
As it turned out it didn’t matter at all, being worried and living in fear that that telling them how I really feel would cause them to reject me, I guess I decided that I was going to do with my actions instead.

***Laura’s POV***

After it was all said and explained, I decided that it was best if Susan and my Father leave us alone for awhile to sort things out. I had to reassure Sue several times that it didn’t bother me that she wasn’t completely human.
Came to the realization that some of her mannerisms that I found a little odd, suddenly made perfect sense now. I giggled to myself, Purrfect sense. She gave me a dirty look and then we both laughed with a reassuring hug she was off home and my Dad gave me a hug and said that he still had more to tell me but he was going to wait for another day to do so.
Finally, it was just Aiden and me alone. I suddenly for some stupid reason felt shy, I went into the kitchen to make myself some strong coffee. I also started to munch on some of the left-over pizza, I was really hungry after all that stress.
I felt him enter the room before I saw him, the air seemed warmer and a little heavy between us, I suppose it is all that has to be said yet hanging around us like a monkey. I fixed my cup of coffee and finished my slice of pizza before I turned around to face him.
He was there patiently waiting as if he knew that I needed a little bit of time to compose myself, He was casually leaning up against the wall watching me. His eyes still just as intense as they were before, we looked at each other in silence. It wasn’t uncomfortable in this moment; I felt as if I had known him for a long time, instead of it being less than 24 hours.
I felt that he was waiting for me to take the lead or give him my ok. I wasn’t sure how to take the lead in this sort of situation, but a part of me was grateful for his thoughtfulness. I could feel his need rolling off of him in waves but he kept in check.
To be honest, I wasn’t sure I wanted him to keep it in check any longer, the memories of those dreams have been haunting my mind ever since he came to my door, demanding to be let inside.
There was a small part of me though that was protesting, it kept saying never again, you will not be hurt again. That part though was starting to become nothing more than a small whisper in my mind now.
Still, the memory of that pain was enough to make me pause. Somehow I felt that what was between Aiden and myself was far deeper than anything with Devin. That it could all come crashing down again; only this time it would be something I don’t think I would survive.
I didn’t move towards him nor did I back away, fear and uncertainty were my companions right now, I hated it but it was there just the same. Did Aiden mean that what was between was forever and unbreakable, or was that just words used to sway me.
Not to mention this whole other world that was invisible and unknown to me but for a few hours ago. How would I fit into that world? I can’t change into anything but the clothes that I wear.
I didn’t think that I would be this confused, part of me wanted him to leave so I could be alone to think things through on my own, the rest of me never wanted him to leave my sight ever again. I look him over once again; I felt my sex clench as if in anticipation. Ugg, what is wrong with me? I am not some lightheaded easy hussy.
One minute Aiden was leaning on the wall, the next he was behind me lightly rubbing my shoulders. It felt so go that I for a minute forgot about all my dilemma’s. I leaned back into him and let out a small moan as the tension I didn’t know was building was being released.
*“It is alright Laura, you have had a lot dumped on you tonight, perhaps it is best if we just go slow and just get to know each other a little better. No pressure and if you want me to leave I will go.”
“I know you feel the bond between us and it is confusing as hell right now, but I promise that I will never do anything to hurt you ever. I also know that those are just words right now but if you give me a little time I can show you that I mean everything I say.”*
His deep voice was mesmerizing and his scent was just as intoxicating, the little tingles from the sparks between us as he massaged my shoulders and neck, were making me lose any thought or control I might have had.
So help me, I decided that I didn’t want to do anymore talking, for the rest of tonight come what may I just want to feel loved again, even if it is for just one night. I turned in his arms and in once swift move I reached up and kissed him.
It was an explosion of fire; his arms were around me pulling me into him so close we could have been one person. I wrapped my arms around his neck, as I opened my lips for his exploration, I let out a moan of pleasure, if he wasn’t already holding me to him I would be a melted pile on the floor.
Barely able to speak, in a whisper…
*“Aiden, I have had enough talk for tonight.”*
He let out a growl of pleasure into my neck as he picked me up, I pointed him to where my bedroom was.
