Chapter 65
When we got home that night my jaw ached slightly. "I think I might miss immortality." I muttered to myself.
"Really?" Kaase asked, closing the door behind him.
"Well the whole indestructible thing has its perks," I laughed, "but overall I'll be glad to be rid of this curse."
"What do you hate about it?" Kaase pulled me down on the couch beside him. I snuggled up close to him inhaling the strong scent of smoke from the fire trapped in his clothing and hair. "What more is there to the whole indestructible thing?"
"Well there's the explosive nature." I listed. "I'd like to be mad without jumping out of my skin. And I kind of miss being a woman."
"What are you talking about?" Kaase asked.
I sat up and looked back at him. "Look at me Kaase, I'm huge! I'm taller than almost all girls out there and I'm buff! I eat like a monster; I could eat a whole pizza and still be hungry. I just want to get back to being a woman, being able to be all feminine without looking like a cross dresser."
Kaase sat up and wrapped his arms around me, "You do not look like a cross dresser, babe."
"Look at my arms!" I said, frustrated. I held my arms out and clenched my fists, tight muscles rose and bunched together. It sickened me.
"I think it's sexy." He kissed my neck softly.
"No you don't," I snorted, "you're just saying that to make me feel better." I was slowly loosing my concentration has his lips moved at the base of my neck.
"I'm really not," He moved to my jaw line and ran his strong hand through my hair on the back of my head.
I took a shaky breath and turned to kiss him back softly yet passionately on the lips. I ran my long man fingers through his golden locks then pulled back. He frowned and I laughed at his sad expression.
"I'd also like to be a mother someday." I added, tucking a disheveled hair behind my ear.
"You can't get pregnant?" He asked, was that a hint of sadness in his eyes?
"Not until I get rid of this." I replied softly. I took his hand in mine, "Would you want children someday?"
He half smiled and looked deep into my eyes. "I love kids but if you can't have children that's fine." He shrugged, "If we want kids we could adopt or something." I smiled and he continued, "I love you Leah. I want to spend forever with you."
I froze, "Are you proposing?"
He paused, contemplating, and then let out an almost nervous laugh, "I guess I am, I promise I'll love you forever whether you have two legs or four." I giggled and he smiled, "Will you marry me?"
I felt tears rise up in my eyes, oh gosh, only light headed ditzy blonde girls cried when they were proposed to. I bit my bottom lip and blinked only forcing the tears to fall down my cheeks. I felt as though something was stuck at the back of my throat so my response was hoarse, "Yes."
He kissed my cheek, drying my tears. "I love you, Leah." He whispered.
"I love you, Kaase." I breathed. I put my hands on the sides of his face and brought his lips to mine, kissing him passionately. He kissed me back and my mind soon lost all train of thought. It was him and me, and nothing else mattered.
