"You're averting from the truth which is just as bad."
Kit sighed and made a move to get out of bed. He began walking to the bathroom and I frowned at how arrogant he was being towards me. Kit was arrogant at the best of times, but he really didn't seem to have the time of day for me and I sat with the sheets wrapped around my chest, watching him walk to the bathroom.
"Do you still blame yourself?" I blurted out, just before he reached the bathroom door.
He froze but didn't turn around and I watched as every bone in his body seemed to freeze on edge. Not answering confirmed it for me and I got out of bed to meet him but instead of waiting for me he disappeared into the bathroom. I could have sobbed at the way Kit was treating me. After everything that had already happened, now he was totally blocking me out and I couldn't help but think this was because I was no longer the only girl in his life. It feared me deeply that he could have feelings for Maddie. At first, I decided to get dressed and leave. Then as I heard the shower turning on I gripped at my remaining clothes and pulled them off before stalking into the bathroom. I wasn't sure if Kit had heard me, water was trickling over his face as I opened the door and I stood taking him in as steam filled the room. The marks on Kit's back were clear as I walked up and into the walk-in shower and placed my hands on his back. I kissed him there, all along his back and reached my arms around him before pressing myself against him to hug him from behind.
"I still want you..." I said against his skin. "Only if you're honest with me."
Silence lingered and I feared that he would reject me again. It didn't last long because Kit turned around and captured my mouth, lowering his hands and gripping at my arse and hips. Up until then, I felt as if he was really reserved with me, but intimately we connected on a different level. He kissed me passionately and held me close. Standing beneath the hot trickling water in Kit's arms, I looked up to his face that had now changed. It was similar to the look I'd seen before. He looked worried.
"Talk to me," I pleaded whilst looking him in the eyes. He sighed and shook his head slightly before escaping my grasp. He left me there in the shower as he reached for his towel and wrapped it around himself.
"You can't just block me out, Kit!" I raised my voice a little as he stood over the sink with only a towel wrapped around his waist.
"You were fighting to have me back, now you're pushing me away. What the hell is going on? Have you changed your mind?"
He stared back at me as if I were a fool.
"This has nothing to do with that."
"Then what is it? Tell me."
Shaking his head, he continued to dry himself.
"I can't put any more worry onto you, Eves. I won't do it," he said without turning around but his words hit me frontal.
He was keeping something from me, and as Kit left the bathroom water ran into my partially opened mouth as I stood thinking about what it could be. I spat the water and quickly got out of the shower to wrap a towel around myself before facing Kit.
"Fine," I said the second I saw him.
He was standing looking in on his Delta kit that was inside of his cupboard. No doubt he'd need to be heading there again soon.
"You don't wanna tell me, that's fine. There's no reason for me to be here."
"What?" he looked at me.
"I told you didn't I?"
I was losing my shit as I stalked back to the bathroom.
"No. Eve, wait."
I heard him rushing after me but it was too late. I shut the door and locked it, leaving Kit to smack on the other side.
"Fuck it, Eve, what are you doing?"
"Getting dressed, then I'm going home.I don't belong here," I said the last of my sentence quietly.
"What are you talking about? Open the goddamn door before I knock it down."
His words angered me more as I finished getting dressed and opened the door. I swiped passed him and towards my bag on the chair.
"Where are you going?" he questioned after me.
"I'm leaving, where do you think I'm going?"
"No, Eves, you can't just leave." He stalked after me.
