The Rejected Doctor
Richard didn’t deserve this, and I was supposed to not keep a secret this big from him.
“I know I should have,” I replied in a rush. “I’m sorry. I guess, some part of me thought that I was still dreaming all of this, and that it wasn’t in any way real.” I moved to place my hand on my mate’s chest, right over his heart. Just the feeling of his heartbeat through his shirt made me calm. His eyes flickered to mine, and I bit my lips, hoping that he understood my guilt, and wouldn’t be too angry at me keeping this secret from him.
He breathed in deeply and visibly, and exhaled through his mouth, bringing his hand up to cover mine which was still placed over his chest.
