The Runaway Groom
James looked into Erin’s eyes and smiled. “I like it that you’re upset.”
It means that she cared about him, and that she did not want to share his body with other women.
Erin lowered her head, her voice unwittingly turning raspy. “You’re so annoying.”
James tenderly reached out with his arms to hold her.
This time, she did not push him away, but she grabbed him by the collar instead as she forced back her
tears.
She was failing, even as she sobbed. “Could you not? Please don’t make this difficult for me.”
Her shoulders were shaking and her tears started to roll, and she leaned against his chest. “I-I don’t
deserve to be with you…”
James held her tightly then and kissed her hair and her cheek before whispering beside her ear, “You
gave me your first time to me. I had you in your purest state.”
“No, I’ve been defiled…”
“Shush.”
James pressed a finger on her lips. “It’s in the past, and I’ve punished the people who hurt you. They’ll
spend the rest of their lives in jail, and I’ve instructed their jailmates to make sure that they wish they
were dead.”
“But…”
“Would you want to see me end up like them? Barely alive because of you?”
Erin looked up then, her eyes welling with tears over her skinny but pretty cheeks. “No, I don’t. I want
you to be safe and happy…”
“I’ll only be happy with you. Do you understand?” James said as he gave her a gentle peck on the
cheek. “Trust me just this once.”
He closed his eyes, his lips tenderly lowering to her eyes to kiss the tears off the corner of her eye.
“Please don’t break my heart.”
Erin wrapped her arms tightly around his neck just then and put her face against his chest. “I love
you… but what should I do? I’d rather be the only one hurting.”
James put his arms around her thin waist, “Trust me, the darkness will pass and a bright future awaits
us in the end—it’s a spring day, filled with life.”
“Can I be without you without feeling any pressure?”
“Yeah,” James rasped. “I wouldn’t have come if I’d given up on you.”
Erin cried even harder then.
Because she tried to hold back her tears, it was even more bitter and she could not stop.
She felt lonely and despaired, but as she leaned against his arms right now, she found refuge.
What should she do? She loved him so much she wanted to be with him for the rest of her life!
As all the feelings she repressed burst out, she could no longer hold back and she cried audibly in his
arms.
There was no telling how long that passed. Her feet turned numb and her eyes turned red and swollen,
while her voice became hoarse.
“Does your hand still hurt?” she sniffled.
“Yeah,” James nodded, looking at her lovingly then. “It’d hurt more if you left me.”
Erin lifted his hand to see the bite marks on the back of his hand.
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s alright.” James reached out to wipe her tears. “I can’t stay long—I’ll be gone tomorrow. Stay with
me for today.”
“Okay,” Erin nodded. “You must be hungry since you haven’t had lunch, yes? Let’s eat outside.”
His lunch on the table had already turned cold.
“Okay,” James said. “We can catch a movie after that.”
“Okay.”
They went to a restaurant, and Erin was watching him eat since she already ate.
Still, James cut a slice of his steak and held it beside her mouth.
A little embarrassed, she said, “I had lunch.”
James simply stared at her in silence without answering, but he was obviously determined.
Erin struggled a little before leaning forward to eat the slice, but James’s hand withdrew just as she
was about to reach it.
Missing her mark, she looked up to see James grinning in amusement.
She blushed right then!
“You’re nuts!”
