Mooodbye before I help her to her room She’s in bed and I lean over to kiss her forehead, but she stops me

"Thank you" Her hand cups my cheek and tears spill down her face "This day has been perfect, Colton Just like you, it will always be a part of ht back tears I can’t do this We can’t do this now It’s not time I’m not ready

"We’ll have more of them" I tell her, but I can’t look her in the eyes when I say it "I proainst mine and we just sit there I closeher To see if she doesn’t believe we’ll have ave her some earlier

I know she wants to say more I feel it in the way her hand touches o spend the day with that girl of yours She’s soer before I pull away "Yeah…she is I’m lucky to have her"

"She’s just as lucky to have you"

~CHAPTER THIRTY~

Cheyenne

Colt doesn’t feel like doing anything after we see his h what he is and wish there was so helpless I know it’s so I share with him I think we’ve both felt like that too often It’s probably one of the things that drew us together

We stay at his house again It’s wild and crazy as ever I wonder if Adrian does anything but party

"How do you handle the partying all the tis "Because I was always partying with hih"I’hs I love the sound

"You’re fucking cocky is what you are"

"You have the worst ht we decided women like my mouth You like my mouth, don’t you?"

He starts to use it on me and I can’t help but shiver He definitely kno to use it

"You’re always distracting me" I let my eyes close and just feel

"You like that too"

And he’s right I do I also like this playful side of hi" My hand slides through his hair

"Done," he says Like always Colt ood on his word

"Have you done this before?" I ask Colt as he cliround, different colored blankets under them or some with chairs There are a few trees, but not a lot Probably why they do this in the Fall so it’s not too hot Tonight will be chilly though I’ot I asked him a question

"The concerts in the park Have you coe Indie type bands play at them We don’t even knohat kind ofout of the house Like doing so nor tih at hi? It would require you to actually want to do so that surprises o down easily because…well because I don’ttaken down by hi me He’s able to hold both et away "How’s this? Is this normal and happy? Is this what I’ sappy in public?"

His voice is light A sht," I tell him

He cocks his head "I’m not? Fuck"

"You’re supposed to kiss me"

Without a word he leans forward and does just what I said Our tongues dance together, around each other the way he calls ood at that, isn’t she?" At the sound of Gregory’s voice, I tense

Colt doesn’t though He’s off me and on his feet in two seconds

"What the fuck did you just say?" Colt hisses

I scrarab onto Colt’s arh I’m pretty sure you heard me" Red is by his side I’m surprised he doesn’t have a friend with hiain Talk shit aboutto have to beat your ass Again Howup, one, two, three, four, five fingers until he’s holding both hands up

"Are we really going to do this again?" Colt asks "I’irl with you and I’d hate for her to have to clean you up again Why don’t you go do what you came here to do Talk shit about h to irl"

I know Colt He really will fight if Gregory tries anything I tighten ht red He’s pissed and e That I was so ory says before walking away It’s hard not to laugh It’s such a "B"hate him" The tension in Colt finally releases
