My eyes slowly pried open to meet the next day, a small smile forming on my lips, enjoying the pure silence, hearing only the winter wind outside.
I closed my eyes again to enjoy that sound for a moment and maybe sleep in today. But then I felt a movement behind me, a hand wrapping around my waist, and my eyes snapped wide open.
Now I was awake. Perhaps more fully awake than I've ever been.
Slowly and very carefully, I rolled onto my other side, my eyes landing on sleeping Diego next to me, all memories from yesterday coming back to me like a freezing shower.
I remembered the words he said, the words he said when he thought I was already asleep. It was easier to pretend to be asleep than face him.
"I've had a lot of women in my life, you probably already know that... Women that came and left. Some of them fell in love with my looks, some of them with my strength...but you...Neither of those things interested you..."
"As crazy as it might seem, you fell in love with my darkness....or at least I hope you love me in some sort of way..."
"You said that you get to know people by their wounds. You said that sometimes a heart can break without noticing, that sometimes you don't feel the pain until someone tells you you're wounded....You were right, congrats to you...You made me see it and you found a solution for it in your soul. You did all of this and you don't even realize that. You're my cure, Brienne Primrose Henderson."
You can imagine how much that freaked me out. If it weren't for my physical tiredness, I wouldn't be able to fall asleep at all.
I mean... after all the activities from yesterday...I was physically exhausted, completely knackered.
Oh the activities...
But now? I was fully aware of what happened and that was just freaking me out.
"You fell in love with my darkness."
WHAT?! I wasn't in love with him! I didn't love him, never have and never will. Everything that happened was just pure lust, right??
"You're my cure, Brienne."
I mean...WHAT?! I wasn't his cure! Why would he even need a cure? For what? I'm sure I wasn't medically discovered by anyone as a treatment for some medical condition!
He's gone mad!
Carefully, I took his arm off of me, placing it on the mattress. Then I turned and tried to get out of the bed but the sudden movement of my legs made me take a sharp breath in from the soreness down there...
Either way, I got out of the bed, wincing at every sudden movement while picking up all of my clothes and quietly getting out of his room butt naked.
