God, did Ben want her to reach out and stop him from leaving. Or, at the very least, he wanted to wake up from this horrible dream to find that everything was still okay between them.
But that was never going to happen.
Why would he want to be with someone who’d say something like that to him, anyway? He was worthy of love. And he deserved love. And Rey...what she said was not something you’d say to someone you even marginally liked.
He had said some shitty things to her tonight, but he never said anything just to make her feel shitty about herself.
His next therapy session was going to be a heavy one, he could already tell.
“For what it’s worth,” he said as he stopped with his hand on the door knob. “I wanted this to work out so bad. It was just bad timing, Rey.” Ben opened the door and stepped out, feeling like he was closer to being out of her orbit than in it.
