(Jessie’s POV)
I don’t know what I was thinking. Maybe I wasn’t thinking at all, but when Mason hugged me? I just let him. I admit it felt good to be in his arms this way, but at what cost? He pretty much shattered every ounce of trust I had in him years ago. Now? All I trust, where Mason is concerned, is that he’ll hurt me. Eventually.
I know I promised Nick I’d think things through, and I'll keep that promise. But at the core of the issue, trust will always be the deciding factor. Though for now, I guess a hug is okay.
I didn’t stay too long in his embrace, though. I didn’t wanna give anyone, especially him, the wrong idea. Unfortunately, I may've been a little too late for that, because when I looked around the room everyone was looking at us.
