I Closed My Eyes And She Slipped Away の小説・ストーリー

she replied, her voice filled with emotion. With a heavy heart, I left, the door closing behind me. I stood there, listening to her lock it, the sound echoing through the hallway. My heart ached, leaving her was never easy. But duty called, and I had to answer. As I walked away, I felt her eyes on me, watching me leave. I turned back, catching a glimpse of her standing in the doorway, her naked body shielded by the door with only her face in view. Our eyes met, and I smiled.

And like magic, the storm inside me calms down. It’s impossible! I think, completely intoxicated. And suddenly I realize breathing has become easier too. With my heart pounding in my chest, I cautiously approach her like her shadow, and two of my fingers gently hold some strands of her hair. Then I close my eyes and inhale her scent. However, the doors open, and she leaves, taking my peace with her. In despair, my brain screams for her to come back, but the words don’t reach my mouth. And the doors close, stealing her from my sight.

“ You can open your eyes'' I whispered and she snapped open her eyes, staring back into mine with mixed emotions. “ I…” She stepped back from my hold and I felt the emptiness. ‘ Fuck! Vincent growled in the mind link and I narrowed my eyes. ‘ She is fucking coursing a scene at the hospital ‘

“This.” I frown. “There is no this.” The second I say it, I know it’s the wrong thing. I see it happen. A tiny shift in her expression. A flash of hurt. Gone almost immediately. The walls go back up. “Right.” That word again. Short. Simple. Final. Like a door closing. Then she turns and walks away. This time I don’t stop her. I just stand there watching until she disappears around the corner. The room feels quiet again.

She closed her eyes, attempting to grasp onto the fading recollection of the last moments. In the midst of her thoughts, the image of those piercing gray eyes emerged vividly. "He... Zain..., Black," she murmured softly, her gaze shifting towards Misty. With a surge of panic, she threw off her blanket and bolted, driven by the instinct to find safety in hiding.

“We’ll see.” And she left. The door clicked shut behind her. My breath left slowly. She didn’t know. Not yet but she was close. And if she found out before Slade Everything would shift I lay back slowly, staring at the ceiling before dozing off.

A single, sharp spasm. And then, from beneath his closed eyelids, a single tear traced a path down his temple and was lost in the pillow. He heard her. Even in the black abyss of his mind, he heard her. The soft tap of her shoes walking away. Walking toward her freedom. So light. So final. And she never looked back.

With her pressed against me, my hands explored her figure, relishing the soft and supple sensation, longing to etch her gentleness into my memory. Lost in the ecstasy of the kiss, I surrendered myself to bliss. Suddenly, she forcefully pushed me away, her hand connecting with my cheek in a resounding slap. Fear and shock emanated from her eyes, as if they were windows into her deepest emotions. I yearned to calm her racing heart and soothe her troubled mind, but she abruptly fled up the stairs, her footsteps echoing against the wooden steps. The sound of the door closing behind her filled my ears, emphasizing the finality of her departure.

Her green eyes, filled with endless kindness, had always been my safe haven—a lighthouse amidst the raging storm inside me. She chuckled softly, the sound like a lullaby. “But you see me every day, sweetie. Why would you miss me?” She playfully pinched my cheeks before smoothing my hair. “Now, get some rest. When you wake up, we’ll have dinner together.” I wanted to hold onto her, to pull her back when she stood and made her way to the door. But then—suddenly—the door wasn’t just a door anymore. A bright, blinding light flooded the room, so intense that I had to squeeze my eyes shut. A deep ache bloomed in my chest as I felt reality rip her away from me.

Just for a second. And she slipped out of his hold, leaving the door open behind her. She walked out-but did she really walk away?
