Chapter 305: Second chance (2)
Annalise stopped wrapping his body to look at him. She thought her ears were playing tricks on her, but the way he stared at her told her she heard right. "You’ll forgive me already?" She asked, needing him to repeat it.
"Do you want me to continue being angry with you?" Rafael replied. "I can-"
"No!" Annalise replied, raising her hands to stop him. "You already said you would forgive me if there aren’t any more lies so you can’t take that back now. No more lies between us," she promised.
That wouldn’t be hard since she hadn’t lied to him a lot when it came to their relationship. The biggest lie had been her identity and now that was out in the open.
"Who is Thomas to you?" Rafael asked, still stuck on the fact she said he wasn’t her brother. He remembered when he first spotted the man and thought he liked Annalise. Hearing that they weren’t siblings, he went back to thinking there were some feelings there.
"Men," Annalise rolled her eyes. He could ask about anything else, but he wanted to speak about Thomas. "He is my friend. I have known him forever and since we are to be honest, I must tell you that he was the first man I was ever intimate with. The only one besides you. It didn’t mean anything. I was just curious about sex and he was open to doing it with me."
"I see," said Rafael, understanding the look he received that day.
Thomas probably considered Annalise to be his because of the sexual connection they had along with being friends, so when he saw another man around her, he was ready to send them away. It was good to know he wasn’t Annalise’s brother so he was aware of what Thomas’s gaze meant.
"There’s no need for you to start plotting on Thomas. We’ve already had a conversation about nothing happening between us. Does your jealousy mean we are back together or am I just forgiven? That wasn’t exactly clear," Annalise said, poking at the bandage she created to see if it would come undone with some movement.
