Just like that, it seemed like my words were also his undoing.
His body convulsed on top of me. It was the sexiest orgasm I’d ever witnessed, as if he just poured all of his love into me. Pulling out of me, he lay back down beside me and pulled me into his arms.
“I’m okay, Jamie.”
Kissing my forehead he said, “That’s all I want.”
“You can’t treat me like I’m going to break.”
“I’m scared, Stella.”
“Of what?”
“Sometimes you look like you’re far away.”
“You won’t talk to Paul. Talk to me. No one loves you as much as I do.”
“I know,” I took a deep breath, “I get stuck in childhood memories. I couldn’t get out until I felt your arms around me, smelled you, heard your voice. You saved me, again. You saved me from myself, Jamie. You’re the only one that ever has been able to. My world was black before you. You make everything better. You heal me.”
“Then how were you able to walk away from me?”
“It’s what I do best, Jamie. I didn’t know how to stay and fight through the fear. I just couldn’t handle going through that pain every two weeks. I feared two weeks would turn into months or more. It was so painful to watch you go. I’m not strong enough to handle that level of pain, but you were right, the pain of not having you at all was so much worse.”
“I don’t know where we will live, Stella. I do know I can’t be without you. It’s like I can’t breathe. I can’t handle it. I have to be where you are. The pain is too much without you. Please don’t ever put me through that again.”
Suddenly, there’s a knock at the door. Jamie jumped up and started getting dressed.
“Stella put some clothes on.”
I yelled, “Just a second.”

Walking to the door, I wonder who is knocking on my door and why. I got up and went to the door. Opening the door I saw Scarlet smiling at me.
“Come in, but why are you here?”
“I have an errand to run and I don’t want you to be alone right now,” Jamie said.
“I am not an egg, I will not break.”
Scarlet said, “Hey I miss you. Can’t we hang out for a bit.”
Raising an eyebrow at her, I said, “Sure.”
I really don’t like people acting like I’m fragile.
Jamie pulled me into his arms and kissed me quickly and moved his mouth to my ear, “I love you, baby. I’ll be back soon. Be nice to Scarlet.”
“You mean my babysitter?”
“You’re impossible. I’ll be back soon and then we are going to go out.”
I watch his perfect ass walk away. God, I love his sexy ass, tight and perfect. I blush and Scarlet laughs, “You and Jamie. I never thought you’d let anyone in.”
“Me neither.”
“The Martin men are very hard to not let in.”
