Mason Stayed quiet Until she was done, keeping hold of her tight as she yelled until the slap connected. He still didn't let go though. the physical pain of the slap and the mental pain of what he'd been through were hurting but not as bad as it stung to see her upset. "All those times that you thought the opportunity was right, I pushed myself away when i got to the bottom steps because i didn't want to ruin what you have here... this was my last resort..."<br/><br/>He felt her anger towards him which turned up the heat for him, Mason kept her close and held her tight as he kissed her hair "this life... no matter how far you've gotten... catches up with you... and you know that" He encircled his arms around her waist.<br/><br/>"now I'm here, and you can hate me... love me... or tell me to get lost but that will never stop me from saving you. whether it's with you knowing or not" he whispered into her ear then raised her head with his index finger, glancing at her lips quickly then leaning in  for a gentle kiss on her lush soft lips. He pulled back but only an inch away from her lips "I'll leave you to think about it, i'll be back tomorrow" His light breath fanning over her lips before he turned and grabbed his equipment and made his way to the door.
