“Was that it? All you wanted was to fuck me?”
He flinched. “That’s not what happened between us, Sutton, and you know it.”
“Then how can you brush me aside like this?”
“Because I can’t be with you! I can’t give you the things you want, and maybe it was selfish of me not to tell you that first. To not tell you that I want you, but I can’t give you anything more than me right now.”
My tears fell freely now. “That’s the problem, Brody, you didn’t give me you. You gave me your body.” I stared up at him, knowing I had a pleading look on my face. “Why can’t you be with me? Why won’t this work?”
He closed his eyes, a pained look on his face before he opened them again. A chill ran through my body when I saw his blank expression and the void in his hazel eyes. The next words out of his mouth broke me into a million pieces.
“Because I don’t love you.”
