Chapter 30

Geoff:

Goddammit.

She was scrambling in my arms, but I just tightened my hold on her. What the fuck was I thinking?

Hate me. Loathe me. Despise me. That stupid fucking monologue got me into this shit. I stared down at her face after slamming the door on the boy's face.

Her eyes were bloodshot and her face was wet with tears and snot. She was a beautiful mess. Her lips were also red and swollen. Anger immediately filled me.

"Did you kiss him?"

She blinked at me. "Fuuuckk you. Put me doooown."

Yes, I could deal with her anger. I gently put her down and she took a step forward. I immediately caught her as she tripped on her own feet.

She slumped to the ground and faced the ceiling, giggling as she tried to make snow angels on the floor.

I crouched down beside her.

"How much did you drink?"

"Mind your own business." After telling me off, she started crying again.
