I Just Needed You, Chapter 7 Teaser

For the next week, I hid.  Like a pussy.  I buried myself in books and school and nothing else.  I ignored everything—my phone, my classes, even food—in order to avoid facing what I’d done.  

I should have never allowed it to happen—to get that far.

When she touched me though, it was with a reverence I’d never felt before.  From anyone.  It made parts in my body tingle that I didn’t even know existed.  She smelled like coconut and rain, and the scent and the feeling combined together made me stupid.  Stupid enough to make one of the biggest mistakes of my life.

Because no matter what I did now, my chances were probably ruined.  Nice girls like her didn't give assholes like me second chances.    

I kept expecting Jasper to come pounding on my door, to follow through on his promise to beat my face in if I hurt her again.

He never showed up.

Neither did she.
