Belle crossed her arms over her chest, just for something to do with her hands so she wouldnāt do something stupid like grab Colt tight and order him to never think something like that. Instead she just nodded, forcing herself to stay looking at him - to keep from showing weakness. Her jaw clenched slightly.Ā āWell, you donāt seem to understand my explanation, so Iām not quite sure what else to say. Perhaps some space will be best after all. We jumped into living together quite quickly.ā The words hurt to force out, and her body was cold with terror that he would figure out she wasnāt what he wanted - she wasnāt good enough for him, wasnāt male enough for him.Ā
Colt wanted to argue some more, about how it seemed she was the one who didnāt understand what heĀ was saying, but he already really just wanted to hide in a corner and he knew better than to add to that feeling. Especially since he needed to arrange a hotel room too, now.Ā āI guess we did,ā he said quietly, choosing to reply to the most innocuous part of what Belle had said.Ā āIāll see ya around, Miss,ā he murmured, the words feeling like they were ripped from his throat as he spoke them. Quietly, he moved to the door and walked out of the room.
