"I was pretty high?" she offered weakly, flinching away from Frankie's rising voice. She felt tense still, and tried to tell herself it wasn't because she still felt guilty. Frankie didn't know that she had momentarily lost herself and kissed the older girl back.
When Frankie jumped up from the window, Tatum jumped up from the bed, ready to plead with her to stay if it came to that. She found herself slightly relieved by the pacing instead. She was shaking just a little as she stepped forward and stopped her girlfriend mid-pace, putting both of her hands onto Frankie's shoulders.
"Don't do anything, please. She's not gunna do it again, I'm definitely not going to do it again. She knows I want to be with you, she told me to be with you, it's over just.. let it go. Just be with me, okay?" she suggested quietly, looking the brunette in the eyes. "I just want all of this to go away so we can be back to normal."
