unfamiliar pang of dread settles into the deepest crevices of his chest , hues doing their best to protrude nonchalance ... that this isn't going to be the end of them , if he can find the right words . the right way to explain this ? is almost positive such a testament doesn't even exist , with the look of anguish emitted from fiancée's face . ( it's already over to her , he's assuming . ) “ olive ... ” name feels foreign on his tongue , if only because he's accustomed to the pet names they shared . needs femme to know he's serious right now , however . “ i didn't tell you about the kiss 'cause i knew you'd never believe me ― if i had came home that first day & said yes , she kissed me , but i didn't kiss her back , you know you wouldn't have listened to me at all . am i wrong ? you wouldn't have believed me . ” grasping at straws here , knows it's wrong to deflect this back onto her , that she gave him every opportunity to be honest , to tell the full truth ... and that he just didn't . “ i still ― i still shut it down . nothing else happened , alright ? ”
