“And who am I?” I push out past the knot that has suddenly formed in my throat.
“Someone I should have fought for five years ago. Good thing I know better than to make the same mistake twice.”
Before I can even think to respond, Hudson’s face dips and his lips press against mine. It’s not a hot and heavy kiss like he delivered that night outside the club, but it still causes me to sizzle from head to toe.
He pulls back all too soon and I’m left wondering what the hell happens next. Is this it? Is this all I get? No matter what he says the truth still remains. He’s going on tour for who knows how long and I have a life in Florida. The reality of our situation feels heavier than it should.
Dropping his forehead to mine, he lets out a slow breath, his hand going from my neck to my shoulder.
“I don’t want to say goodbye yet.” His admission dulls some of the fear I felt only moments before and replaces it with a slew of butterflies that erupt in my stomach.
“Me either,” I admit, pulling back so I can look at his handsome face.
“Can I see you again before you leave?”
“I don’t see how that will be possible. If it were any other weekend I would. But this is for my sister. I can’t bail on her.”
“I get it.” He takes a step back, letting his hands fall. “You’ll call me later though, right?”
“Nope.” I shake my head, trying to act totally serious but failing miserably. “You’ll call me.”
With that, I push up and lay another light kiss to his mouth before I whip around and walk straight into the hotel without a backward glance.
Hudson’s laughter can be heard until the door closes behind me and instantly I feel the loss of him.
This is so not good...
