"alright, i'll bite. what's your game and how exactly have i been losing?" his words came out harsher than he really intended them to, but at this point he knew that she was long gone anyway.
she shook her head, managing to entice and frustrate him in the same moment. "all it will do is hurt you." was all that she could give him.
"hurt me." he said after only a beat. "you know i'll forgive you by morning anyway."
staring at him, she felt her heart swell with appreciation and then deflate with realism. "you're a fucking disappointment."
"well cast away, princess. you've always been what i've always wanted."
she should've held him closer or begged for forgiveness, but the next thing that she knew, his left cheek was flushed and it wasn't from blushing. she felt the sting in her palm, and the ache in her heart. a moment later, she felt a wave of emotion wash over her as his eyes registered with forgiveness. she turned on her heel and walked away, doing what he should've done for himself long before.
