This tattoo is about me, because I had to fix myself before I could do or have or be anything else. But this tattoo is also about you, because you were my reason, my inspirations, my hope against hope.
You own every part of me. Everything I am or will be. Everything is yours.
I want to stay right here, in your arms. Because this is right where I'm supposed to be.
.Despite agreeing to the best man at his brother's wedding, Noah was rocking some not-so-healthy feelings about the whole thing. Resentment that his brother's life seemed to be falling into place so easily. Jealousy that the guy had things Noah wasn't sure he'd ever find, now. Because what woman would want a man so twisted up inside that on some level he resented his own brother's happiness?
"Depression does that. Makes everything seem worse than what it is. I know that first-hand." Noah dropped his gaze to the floor again, and he fought against the know suddenly in his throat and the sting at the backs of his eyes for all he was worth. Because his depression had never been this bad, not even right after his injury. And deep down he hated himself for not being stronger, for not just willing himself to get the fuck over it already.
He wasn't sure he'd ever seen her expression as devastated as it'd been after those words spilled from his lips. Sure, she'd schooled her reaction pretty damn fast, but after nearly twenty years as her best friend, even when she didn't want him to know what was going on in that pretty head, he could read her like an open book.
It was just that, he was devastated, too. Devastated to realize how much he wanted someone that he had no damn right to want - not when he didn't have the ability to take care of her the way she deserved.
