She closed the door in my face and I stood there like an idiot for at least five minutes, contemplating the thought of knocking on her door.

And say what?

Since this morning, I haven't been able to get the image of her body out of my head. Then in an instant, because life likes to screw with my head, my arms were around that same body and I do nothing. My head can spew all the rationality it wants right now but every other part of me regrets not kissing her.

So close, so tempting and just so plain wrong. I turned on my heel and marched back to the house, if I stayed there any longer, I would really do something stupid. The house was quiet and dark since mom had switched off all the lights and I walked the empty halls to my room.

At one point there were a lot of people living in this house, now it was just me and mom. After my dad died and Jackson moved into his own place it's been getting too big for just the two of us. I've tried many times to convince my mom to get a smaller place but she wasn't having any of it, this is the home she and my dad built together, were Jackson and I were born and raised here. We've all had so many memories here and I knew it was hard to move on but eventually we would have to. Mom was the most stubborn person I have ever known and if she didn't want to do something well then nobody could force her.

Sleep evaded me so I did what I usually do. Overthink and overanalize everything. There was only one solution, I hade to stay away from Katelyn and with her not at the house it was going to be easy. For the most part at least.
