You Musn't Tell
Part 2
Calhoun awoke to her alarm. She groaned as she looked at the time. One hour till the arcade opens. She sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. She looked to the side and saw Felix clinging to her waist. She leaned down and shook him. "Felix….Felix." She said slightly shaking him.
Felix eyes popped open. "Good morning!" He said smiling.
Felix looked over to Calhoun and saw her frown. "What did I do wrong?" Felix asked confused.
"How is it you're so happy and cheerful in the morning? Mornings are awful." She said with disgust.
"But it's the start of a bright and brand new day!" Felix said.
Calhoun rolled her eyes and quickly kissed Felix's cheek. "I love you." She said.
Felix turned to her in shock. "You….you….love me?" He asked.
Tamora looked at him horrified. She never told anybody before that she loved them, even her departed fiancée.
For the first time in a very long time, Calhoun was expressing her feelings. It felt weird and she felt exposed and weak. She tried to muster out words. She tried taking back what she said but she couldn't. No sounds were coming out. She panicked and shifted uneasily.
Felix sensed her uneasiness and placed his hand on her face and lifted it up.
"Tamora, do you really feel this way about me?" Felix asked.
Tamora tried turning her head but Felix held her face still. She swallowed a lump in her throat and looked up to him and nodded. "I do." She said quietly.
Felix smiled. "I love you too." He said.
Tamora was speechless. Felix watched as a tear ran down her cheek. She grabbed Felix and kissed him.
As much as Calhoun was afraid to admit it, she was in love. Utterly head over heels in love with Felix.
Tamora glanced over to the clock. "We should get ready for today. The arcade opens in forty minutes." She said.
Tamora picked Felix up out of the bed and set him on the ground. "You're right. I should head back to Niceland before anybody realizes I'm gone." He said slipping on his boots and fitting his hat over his head.
Felix came over to Tamora and gave her a goodbye kiss. "I'll be back over once the arcade closes." He said started to leave when Calhoun cried out. "Felix, wait!"
Felix turned back. "Yes honey bunches?" He asked.
"How about I come over to your game tonight?" Tamora asked.
"But don't you think someone might see you?" Felix asked.
"I don't care. I think we should make our relationship public, tonight." Tamora said smiling.
Felix smiled and nodded as he left the bedroom.
A/N: So after a few days of pandering on the question of another part I decided, what the hell, why not make this a series? So I am proud to announce that this once drabble is going to start expanding into a drama filled, action packed, romantic series! So be sure to stay tuned! Oh I do apologize if this chapter is pretty boring and really short but I just needed to finish some characterization with Calhoun and Felix and set a starting point for the next chapter!
