I roll my eyes. "Yes, as always." I breathe out heavily. "Now, for some alcohol." "Oh yes, got it!" She snaps her fingers. "Come with me." It is now I realise we've been walking in circles. This nearly makes me crack up. Of course we have, this compartment is too small to take the many steps we sh
- KILLIAN - Shit! I can't find Hazel inside this hall. She probably ran out. This is so fucked up. I haven't been an ideal person to consider being with but I'm trying to be for her. Then this happened. I don't want to be that guy who confesses one minute and is caught doing something contrary

- HAZEL - "Hazel, I need you to trust me and if not my words, my actions." "Trust the things I do for you that I won't for anyone else." Killian's words replay in my head the moment the doctor leaves the room. I think I have trust issues. I'm sure I've had it since my incident with Tristan and
"I want you to sleep though. With me." My voice is low and hoarse. "On my bed." I part my face from his chest and get on my tip toes. Now I tilt my head up to face him. Even with this added height, I'm still shorter. My face can barely reach his jaw. I clutch my hands around Killian's waist, holdi
