Here it is the final chapter I hope you enjoyed the story and I apologize for taking so long to update. Thank you so much for reading and following my story.
The Time Is Now
"Helena..."
I can tell she is holding something back.
"Helena, please look at me."
She finally looks up with unshed tears in her eyes.
"What is it?
She still won't say anything I can tell she's afraid of how I will react.
"Helena...Do you love me?"
"Yes, Myka with all my heart."
"Do trust me?"
"Yes, of course I trust you."
"Then trust that whatever it is that's still bothering you, it's not going to change the way I feel about you."
I can see she hesitates a little and then she takes a deep breath
"Helena...Do you want us?"
"Yes. More than anything...but"
It almost comes out in a whisper. My heart sinks a little to see her so afraid to tell me what she's feeling.
"But what?"
"But I'm not sure that I'm ready to come back to the warehouse."
I let out a sigh of relief, I give her a small smile.
"Is that all that's bothering you."
I can see her getting a little irritated by that statement. I bite the inside of my cheek trying not to laugh, she is absolutely irresistible when she's angry.
"Is that it? Myka that's huge deal. This is where YOU belong, this is your home."
I just shake my head and give her another small smile.
"Helena, you are where I belong, you are my home. You don't have to go back to the warehouse if you're not ready. There is no pressure."
"But Myka I want you and the warehouse is a part of you."
"It is Helena but so are you. I want this, I want us. We will work this out together, there is always a way. Bering and Wells solving puzzles, saving the day. Remember. "
I smile and she lets out a small laugh.
"Yes, Wells and Bering darling."
"Bering and Wells."
We both laugh, I take a deep breath.
"Helena I need you to promise me something."
"Anything"
"I want you to promise me that if we are going to do this me and you. We HAVE to be upfront and honest with each other from here on out. No more making decisions to protect the other without talking first and NO MORE RUNNING."
"I swear Myka where you are is where I want to be. No more running you have my word. I have lived without you for so long that I can't do it again. I love you so much that I would never survive if I lost you or let you walk away...again."
"Good because I honestly don't think I could survive if you left again. I love you so much Helena."
"And I love you darling, with all that I am."
"So what now?"
She gives me that mischievous smile that I love so much and I can't help but smile back.
"Something that has been long overdue."
We lock eyes with each other, we both have the same idea, we lean in at the same time our lips touch. At first it's a tender kiss but soon it turns in to so much more, as our want and passion soon take over.
After several minutes we slowly pull apart, I rest my forehead on hers, not wanting any distance between us, in that very moment it's just me and Helena and nothing else. The way it should be.
"I love you Helena Wells with all my heart, for as long as you will have me."
"And I love you Myka Bering until my very last breath."
I lean in and kiss her again, no more worrying she is finally home, my Helena and my world is right again. No matter what happens from here on out we will face it together.
Bering and Wells solving puzzles, saving the day.
Again thank you for reading and following, I truly appreciate it. I hope you enjoyed reading my story.
