Chapter 249
I don’t argue with her, to be honest, right now I know not to argue with her, it will only hurt D and Marc when she walks out again. We walk out, with Daisy ahead of us, I look to Rose and Daisy stops before.
“You have my word, they will not retaliate or do anything because I was here and you kept it quiet. It was my choice, so they won’t start shit.” Daisy turns and looks direct at me.
I mean, I want to, but I won’t, so instead I nod in agreement. We follow her out and I admire her strength, I know today will be hard for her. Stopping at the car I look at them.
“Daisy, can you come with me please?” She looks at me like she is debating it. I don’t blame her and I don’t blame the death stares that Demitri is giving me either. “I swear, I won’t say anything to hurt her.” I made my mistake, and I realised that when D and Maarc left this
morning.
I sat there and realised a life without them and Daisy isn’t a life. She nods and walks to the car getting in.
“Cal.” Marc looks at me.
“I swear to behave, I will be right behind you all the way.” I don’t wait. for them to argue, I walk to the car and get in and follow behind them

to the office.
“I’m sorry Daisy, what I said last night was wrong. I’m scared as hell that things will keep going bad, and you will hate us. At no point did I push you away because I didn’t love or want you. If anything, that is why I do.” I look at her and she sits quietly listening.
“You don’t know this, but before Rosalie, a long time before Rosalie, I was dating someone. I let her in puddin, and she just walked. I vowed never to let anyone in again. I told myself to push people away because that way I wasn’t waiting for them to walk.”
“Cal, pull over. Stop the car somewhere, I can’t talk to you while you’re driving.” She looks at me and I nod, stopping in a small back road.
“What happened before has messed me up. After our mum died, I struggled to trust anyone, I was waiting for the moment they would walk away. Even Demitri and Marcello. I sat telling myself they will walk away, I failed to protect our mother, to protect Demitri from that guy. I have been waiting for the day they walk since our mother died.”
She looks at me and nods.
“They are never leaving you, Cal.”
“They would, I realised for you, the would leave me. I wouldn’t blame them either. They have no issues with letting you in. I feel like I am sitting on a clock, waiting for the moment you just walk away. I feel like if I push you away and you walk it proves you would leave

eventually.”
“Cal, that’s wrong.”
“I know, I realised. If you were really going to walk, you would have walked the moment I ignored you that week, you would have walked after I fucked Rosalie, after I gave you that fucking hand. I did so much Daisy to try and push you away and you stayed.”
“And Rosalie, the real reason?”
I look at her feeling guilty, thinking back I now know why I slept with Rosalie.
“That was me telling myself to accept you would never be mine. I was so convinced after that week of how bad I treated you, that
you would walk. I thought sleeping with Rosalie would make it hurt less, and I was wrong.”
“Cal, you’re going to push me away, I get that. I accept that, but letting me think you didn’t want me, and realised it was a mistake rather than telling me the truth, that I won’t accept.
That was a mistake, I sat debating telling her she was wrong, but then I thought maybe if she believed it she would realise she doesn’t love us. Love me.
“I’m sorry, I can tell you though I love you Daisy. Since that day D
brought you home, not a single second has passed where I didn’t want you. I stood downstairs and heard you fight Marcello that day and I wanted you there and then. I hadn’t even seen you fully but I wanted you.”
I hope telling her this makes her realise I love her. I missed sleeping with her, our late night talks. I missed her. She moves straddling me in the front of the car.
“Just promise me one thing Cal.”
“Anything.” I mean that, I will promise her anything.
“If you’re sat there thinking that I will walk, that I will leave you and you think you need to push me away tell me. I will fight you Cal, I will push you away so you feel like you need to pull me back in.” I smile at her words, that day we fought was amazing.
“I promise puddin.” She moves and kisses me, my hands grasping her ass and pulling her closer. I feel her grind against my cock, and kiss her harder. Leaning into her, her back rests against the steering wheel the horn sounds and I laugh.
She doesn’t stop though, pulling me closer and moaning. I groan and try to break free from her.
“Puddin.”

“Shh, just give in.” Her words whispered against my lips and I grip her tighter.
“You need to heal.” I pull away, and she pouts.
“The cuts are fine, stop using excuses.” I go to answer and the door
opens.
“Really little birdie, could you not wait?” D looks at her amused. “You‘ re meant to be healing.” Well, at least he agrees.
“I’m fine! The cuts are not that bad, the stitches are fine.” Her little outburst makes us both laugh.
“I meant the miscarriage, give yourself some time to heal. Then yes you can fuck me in the car if you must.”
She sulks slightly but nods.
“Fine, but you better be ready for when you let me because I swear I will chase you all down with a bat if you say no.
“You can chase me with a bat anytime you want little birdie, now stop trying to seduce him, we have somewhere to be.” D laughs and walks away and I look at her.
“He’s right, let’s get this finished.” Kissing her I move her into her seat
