Loving a Man Who Forgot Me Novel Chapter 92
A single tear tracked down my cheek.
Not letting go of the hand he just slid the ring onto, he stood and kissed away the tear on my cheek.
“I’m never letting you go again.”
“You better not,” I said breathlessly, and then, tugging my hand free of his, snaked both of mine into his hair and dragged his lips to mine.”
I was going to kiss this man every day for the rest of my life. I wound my arms around her waist, pulling her impossibly closer, and deepened the kiss.
She sighed against my lips and molded her body to mine. A thousand emotions erupted in my chest, but most of all was a sense of rightness. Wholeness. It was sweet agony. Agony because of how long it’d taken us to get here. How many times we got it wrong before getting it right.
But it was also perfection. The kiss suddenly became wetter than normal, and without breaking it, I blinked my eyes open to see the tears streaming down her cheeks. I buried my hands in her hair and cradled her head tighter to mine.
Her fingers fisted in the collar of my shirt and her desperation bled into the kiss. I closed my eyes again, and I could feel all the cracks and broken pieces inside her. I promised myself two things right then.
I was going to kiss this woman every day for the rest of my life and mend every single one of those broken pieces. And I was going to buy a big house with lots of room and a big yard and I was going to paint the door red.
And fill her belly with little heathens with lopsided grins, and sassy little princesses with her eyes. And teach them guitar and attend tea parties. And it would be chaos, beautiful chaos. And I would thank God every day for every second of it.
Okay, that was more than two things, but you get the picture.
It was going to be epic.
Like a song.
Our song.
Abbi’s Song
The Same Mistake
“I hung your love in the sky
To light my way
I lost faith, I lost sight
And I lost my way
I said goodbye
And you slipped away
Had to make it on my own
Now I’m just trying to find my way back home
Why did I let go
I traded your love
And it feels so cold
Lost in all the noise
I still hear your voice
A whisper calling me home
One last chance before we break
Baby don’t make the same mistake
I thought there was more for me
But I was wrong you’re all I need
Why did I let go
I traded your love
And it feels so cold
Lost in all the noise
I still hear your voice
A whisper calling me home
One last chance before we break
Baby don’t make the same mistake
I set my sights on the stars
Cause I wanted it all
But baby I went too far
And it was such a long way to fall
My pride is my curse
Now I’m afraid it’s too late
And I don’t which is worse
To set you free or watch you make the same mistake
All this time spent chasing shadows
Looking for the light
But it all feels hollow
And nothing is right
It looks like glitter ‘til I close my eyes
I watch it fade away and I can see
The truth lost in the lies
It’s all nothing without you next to me
I was reckless
And now I’m breathless
My heart is breaking
As I’m watching you making
The same mistake
Why did I let go
I traded your love
And it feels so cold
Lost in all the noise
I still hear your voice
A whisper calling me home
One last chance before we break
Baby don’t make the same mistake.
