"Pesan itu saya melihat? Itu adalah seseorang yang tahu tentang apa yang terjadi?Aku mengangguk lagi. "Siapa pun yang datang dengan mengatakan Anda tidak bisa lepas masa lalu Anda benar-benar tahu apa yang mereka bicarakan."Otot muncul lebih cepat di Cam rahang. "Apa pun yang telah terjadi pada, Avery? Anda mengatakan ini Blaine,"dia meludahkan nama,"adalah di penjara? "Tapi yang memiliki pesan Anda?"Bersandar ke depan, aku menekan dahi saya ke tanganku terbuka. Rambut saya meluncur ke depan, melindungi wajah saya. "Aku sudah mendapatkan pesan ini sejak Agustus. Aku hanya berpikir itu adalah bajingan beberapa dan mengabaikannya. Dan sepupu saya telah berusaha untuk mencapai saya, tapi aku mengabaikannya terlalu karena... baik, untuk alasan yang jelas. Saya akhirnya berbicara dengan sepupu saya selama liburan musim dingin, malam sebelum aku datang ke apartemen Anda.""Malam perang?""Ya," kataku. "Ia mencoba untuk menghubungi saya untuk memberitahu saya bahwa Blaine telah ditangkap karena melakukan hal yang sama dengan wanita lain di awal musim panas. Dia benar-benar minta maaf. Yang berarti banyak bagi saya, tapi... Aku tidak tahu bahwa gadis ini telah salah satu yang telah menghubungi saya ini sepanjang waktu. " Mengambil napas dalam-dalam, saya mengatakan kepadanya bagaimana semua itu terjadi dengan Molly. Ketika aku selesai, Cam gemetar kepalanya. "Apa yang terjadi padanya sialan mengerikan dan saya senang bahwa bajingan pantat pergi ke penjara. Lebih baik lagi, ia harus sialan dikebiri, tapi apa yang terjadi bukan salahmu, sweetheart. Anda tidak membuat dia melakukannya untuk Anda atau dirinya."“But by me not telling anyone allowed him to do it again.”“No.” Cam stood, his eyes full of fire. “Don’t fucking tell yourself that. No one knows what would’ve happened if you didn’t drop the charges. You were fourteen, Avery. You did the best you could in the situation. You survived.”I lifted my head then. “But that’s it, you know? All I’ve been doing is surviving. I haven’t been living. Look at what I’ve done to us. And yes, I’ve done this! I pushed you away again.”His expression softened. “But you’re telling me now.”“I’ve let what happened to me five years ago still affect me! When we almost had sex? I wasn’t afraid of you or if there’d be pain. It wasn’t that. I was afraid that once we started, that what Blaine had done would ruin it for me or that I would ruin it for myself. I am coward—I was a coward.” Coming to my feet, I folded my arms across my waist. “But it’s too late, isn’t it? I should’ve been honest with you months ago so you knew what you were getting into and I’m so sorry that I wasn’t.”“Avery…”The back of my throat burned as tears flooded my eyes. “I’m so sorry, Cam. I know telling you now doesn’t change anything, but I needed to tell you that you didn’t do anything wrong. You were perfect—perfect for me—and I love you.” My voice broke again. “And I know you can’t look at me the same now. I understand.”Cam arms had fallen to his sides. He looked shell shocked. “Avery,” he broke in, voice soft, and he was suddenly in front of me, cupping my cheeks. “What did you say?”“That you can’t look at me the same?”“Not that. Before that.”I sniffed. “I love you?”“You love me?” His eyes searched mine intensely. “Yes, but—”“Stop.” He shook his head. “Do you think I look at you differently? I told you I always suspected that something happened—”“But you had hope that it wasn’t that!” I tried to pull away, but Cam’s hands dropped to my upper arms, not allowing me to run. “You looked at me before with hope and you don’t have that anymore.”“Is that what you really think? Has that been what has been stopping you this whole time from telling me?”“Everyone looks at me differently once they know.”“I’m not everyone, Avery! Not to you, not with you.” Our gazes locked. “Do you think I still don’t have hope? Hope that you will eventually get past this? That it won’t haunt you five more years from now?”I didn’t know what to say, but my heart was racing as he slid his hands down to mine. He placed them on his chest, right above his heart. “I have hope,” he said, his gaze never leaving mine. “I have hope because I love you—I’ve been in love with you, Avery. Probably before I even realized that I was.”“You loved me?” Cam dropped his forehead to mine and his chest rose sharply under my hands. “I love you.”My heart stuttered. “You love me?”“Yes, sweetheart.”There was a strength in those words, but there was a power in the truth. Something broke wide open inside me, like a foundation on a great, thick wall finally giving under the weight. A hailstorm of emotion whirled inside me, seeking a way out. I couldn’t stop it. I didn’t even try. Tears streamed down my face, so fast that I couldn’t see Cam’s face through them. A sound from the back of his throat came and he pulled me to his chest, circling his arms around me tightly. He held me, whispering soothing, nonsensical words. At some point, he lifted me into his arms and carried me back to his bedroom. He laid me down on his bed and climbed in beside me, cradling me to his chest. Once the tears came, they didn’t stop. They were the big, ugly kind of sobs you couldn’t speak or breathe around. There was also something renewing in those tears, as if each tear that fell somehow symbolized that I was finally letting go. I cried for Molly and all that she had to go through. I cried for Cam and everything I had put him through. I cried, because in the end, he still loved me. Most of all, I cried for everything that I had lost and for everything I knew I could now gain.
