POV Lisa.

Ending the evening snuggled up in his arms is exactly what I needed. I needed his presence, his arms and his warmth, basically I needed softness. And that's exactly what he offers me. I smile against his skin? I feel happy despite what happened. When I got home a few hours earlier, I was brooding and I still am. I didn't want to talk to anyone, especially Maddie, she would have gone to the Lancaster offices to put Brian in his place. I can't believe I kept silent again, I should have told him how much I despised him and how pathetic and cowardly his behavior had been. But once again, I kept my mouth shut. When will this all stop? When will I finally be able to face all those old demons from my past that I just can't seem to shake off?

Drake runs his hand down my back, reminding me in the process that it's just the two of us in this room and who cares about the outside world, does he know?

"You think way too much. " He says as he places a kiss on my forehead.

I smile again
