Chapter 25: Swear.

VINCENT.

“Fuck!” I screamed into the skies, ramming my fist into the side of my bike until my knuckles bled. But there was no use, I couldn’t even feel it beneath the pouring rain. My hair was drenched and soaked across half my face. Only after a while did I run my hands through it and I sucked in air through my lips.

My hands fell to my waist as I tried to figure out what the fuck just happened. Summer was mad, I didn’t think she’d be after everything, especially the time she told me she loved me.

A moment that had been replaying in my head ever since. I rattled my brain as to why I couldn’t have just said it back. I mean I’d said it a countless time to women I probably didn’t mean it to. It was so easy to lie but this was different. It felt different.

Summer wasn’t just any woman, she was Summer.

Or maybe the actual reason that I couldn’t say it was deep down, I knew it was true. And I knew the moment I said it, it would all just become real. I would be vulnerable and it scared me.
