Chapter 25 ✰ The Hidden

Colin's pov

My eyes widened. She said she loves me. She loves me... I knew she did and she often showed me that, but she never said it aloud. She said it once before when she was drunk and I brought her home, but with a thick tongue it sounds less sincere.

I pressed a kiss on her forehead. 'I love you too'. The words I had never said to a woman before. Unless you can count my mother, but I said the words rarely. You can say that I had the same problem as Emma. I was afraid it would become too real if I said to someone that I love her.

In my previous relationship I tried to say it. I was with her for almost 3 years and it started to become an issue that I couldn't express my feelings. In the end that was also the reason why she left me. Now I said it to Jennifer within a few weeks. Of course I have known her for a long time, but I didn't have the fear to express my feelings to her. It felt good.

Jennifer made me feel things that I didn't know existed. When I look at her, and she's looking back at me, I can see something. This tiny hint of something more, something you're feeling but can't say aloud. When our eyes meet, it's like we're instantly connected to each other. I know no one catches it but me and you, but that's the thing I love most. Her eyes are the most gorgeous I've ever seen. There are moments I want nothing more than to look her in the eyes, because it's when we're looking at each other in silence that we end up saying the most. Right now was a moment like that and I loved it.

Eventually we fell asleep together.

We woke up early the next morning. We had a day off and I was very grateful for that right now. Jennifer was still broken. She told me about the appointment she had made with Aiden. She would come back today and he would be gone by that time with his stuff. I could tell that she didn't like to go back.

'Shall I go with you?' I suggested.

She nodded gratefully. 'Do you want to do that for me? I'm afraid he might still be there when I go back. I don't want to be alone with him anymore. "

I stroked her hair behind her ear. 'Then I'll go with you, don't worry'

An hour later we finished breakfast and we got in the car. I can tell she was nervous or scared or maybe both. I still didn't know everything about yesterday evening, but Jennifer isn't afraid of anyone. My blood started to boil by the thought of him.

When I parked the car in front of her house, I grabbed her hand. 'It will be fine, I'm with you'

'Thank you. His car isn't there anymore, so I think he's gone'

'Let's hope so' I said as I opened the car door. I had a weird feeling in my stomach and I hoped it had nothing to do with him.

We entered the house. I had expected him to be there, but there was no trace of him. She sighed with relief as she saw the front door key on the table. 'He's gone' she said with a smile.

'You can stay with me for a few days if you want to?' 

She nodded. 'I would really like that.' She pressed a kiss on my lips. 'I'll take a few things from upstairs and then we can go. I look forward to spending a whole day with you!' she smiled.

She ran upstairs while I sat down on the couch. I was just reading some messages on social media when I heard a loud scream. The scream came from upstairs and I knew exactly who it was...
