Shane led me to the ballroom, silent the rest of the way. I caressed his hand with my thumb as we walked silently. I was sad for him, I could see why he had so much anger. I’m sure Lucius has been a d**k to him his whole life. I can’t help but get the urge to comfort him and keep him safe in my arms.
We approached the ballroom doors. Shane stopped before them, pausing while avoiding my gaze. When he was ready, he turned around and gave me a slight smile. I could tell he was fighting with himself, but he was trying to keep up the “i’m okay” act.
He let go of my hand, not wanting to hold onto it when we walk inside of the ballroom. I couldn’t help but want to challenge his choice. I mean would it be sso bad if we held hands together as we walked inside. I mean does that say we're togethe
