If He Had Been With Me Summary Novels & Stories

“ I know I failed. I know this is my fault. You don’t have to keep reminding me. ” His failure? Yes, I have been angry at him, and I should be happy with what he is saying. But this is breaking my heart. It’s not his failure. It’s mine. I was supposed to go with him. He was angry at me the last time we talked, and I didn’t even get the chance to see him. If I had abandoned everything else, if I had just gotten over my shock, my anger, my pain… I would have been there with him.

Was my sudden disappearance that annoying he would treat me like the others? “He practically raised me. We have been through a lot together in these recent years, so it’s only natural we have an unbreakable bond. I know that I can count on him when I need him and likewise.” I said continuing to walk down the hallway. He followed closely next to me, our shoulders just barely brushing against each other.

They were probably disappointed to find I hid the fact we were mates. "Can they provide the answer?" "I hope. Or at least, they can give us direction." Yeah. It was frustrating when peculiar things happened. Something rarely or maybe never occurred. "Can I go with you?" "Sure. I can't leave you here, anyway. Remember. We must stick with each other." I chuckled at his words. There was nothing wrong with it as it was true. We couldn't be separated. But the way he spoke the phrase stick was funny. It sounded like he was making a joke of it.

That… that landed differently. I looked away, running a hand through my hair. “It wasn’t my fault he joined the firm.” “No,” she agreed. “It wasn’t. But everything that came after?” She shook her head. “That’s on you.” Somewhere down the hall, a machine beeped steadily. A reminder that time was still moving, even if it felt like mine had stopped. “If you had just told me,” I said again, quieter this time. “If I’d known he was being followed—”

She had only been babbling. Again, I had come too far to let go of him. We were locked to each other, and that would ever be it. ***

Meeting him changed everything. The bumpy road that Nelle recommended I take was turning out to be the best ride ever. I was never letting him go. I hoped he was ready for me to stick to him like glue. He was stuck with me. He could run, but I had already proven I would find him. He was mine.

With everything that had happened between us, I didn't expect him to choose someone other than me. I remembered how defeated he looked when I told him to jump with me. And how quickly that look disappeared the moment he turned back to look out the window and didn't see me. I kept wondering what went through his mind. Would he have come with me if I didn't move out of his sight?

Shields. At that time I didn't even realize that I was setting up an official meeting with him and the girl he had been pining over. I knew I needed him and the boys pronto. I fūcked myself and I lost her at the same time.

He was nowhere to be found. It had rubbed off on me the wrong way earlier, but now, all I could think to myself was how much of a blessing his absence had been. If he'd seen me walking out, then best believe he would be tracking me down my now, or worse, I would have never left my room.

he said. I felt nervous at that moment. I was not ready to tell him I was the one he was with and I hoped he didn't remember. So when he asked the question I couldn't help but stammer. "Me — me where. I don't know what you are talking about." He looked at me for a moment then nodded slowly like he had decided not to push it. "It's fine sera. I just thought you were someone I was with yesterday." Then he went back to his meal.
