Chapter 3: Questions, confessions and kisses
"These burgers are delicious Esme." Carlisle complimented as he ate Esme's homemade tofu burgers. "Thanks Carlisle I'm really glad you like them." Esme said politely as took bites out of her own burger. "Esme can I ask you a few questions if you don't mind that is?" Carlisle asked becoming more politer to Esme as the evening went on. "Sure." Esme simply replied smiling at him in turn gaining a grin from Carlisle. "Ok how long have you and Alice been friends for?"
"Umm all my life I guess I mean we met in Kindergarten and we were classed as outcasts a freaks then so I guess we have become more like sisters she knows my secrets and I know hers." Esme said smiling Carlisle nodded his head and thought of another question "Do you wear long sleeved clothes and jackets to hide your scars on your wrists?" Carlisle looked into Esme's eyes as she thought of way to reply back "Yeah I do I guess I mean Ali knows what has happened and I guess that I'm ready called a nerdy freak I don't need to add a suicidal nerdy freak." Esme honestly replied " I really am sorry about that Esme I knew never what you went through I just teased you because you had brains I really should of gotten to know you before I assumed about you." Carlisle confessed "Its ok Carlisle I guess it's sort of like a life lesson don't judge a book by it's cover." Esme replied sweetly.
Carlisle smiled and took a sip of water "Can I ask you a couple of questions? Since you asked me." Esme asked Carlisle smiled and nodded his head "Ask away Miss Esme." Carlisle spoke making Esme laugh "Ok in the future I mean when school finishes what profession would you like to go into?" Esme asked patiently waiting for a response "I would like to be a Doctor I guess… I would love to save a baby or a child anyone really." Esme smiled and took his hand "you really should follow your dream Carlisle I know you would be a great doctor." Esme said smiling at the boy she cared and loved so deeply.
"Thanks Essie." Carlisle said "Next question?" Carlisle continued "Umm ok. Why are you with Jessica?" Esme asked nervously "I don't know I mean she asked me out and I guess I said yes I didn't know how mean she was until I saw her bully you I have never in my life met a person that can so cruel to another human being." Carlisle answered honestly looking at Esme's beautiful face finding himself falling love with Esme and actually feeling like he was meant to be with her instead of Jessica "I really shouldn't let her get away with what she does I mean I look at you now and wonder why did I ever let myself or her pick on such a kind and wonderful person because you really are Esme you gave up your time to tutor me."
"Oh it's ok Carlisle I mean I really don't have a life any so I'm glad to help you it actually meant I got see and hear the real you not the façade you are under at school and when your with Jess." Esme answered smiling and squeezing the hand that she was holding.
"Esme has anyone ever told you how beautiful you really are?" Carlisle asked twirling a lock of her curly, caramel hair around his finger. " Um not really I mean Ali does but she is my best friend so she is biased I guess." Esme said smiling as she noticed something had changed in Carlisle's demeanor "Well you should listen to Ali and to … me. Esme you are the most beautiful, kindest, smartest and non judgmental person I have ever met in my entire life." Esme smiled as he said that and a tear fell out of her eye "That is the sweetest thing that anyone as every said to me Carlisle." Esme said smiling as Carlisle wiped the tear away "It's true Esme it is so true."
At that moment Carlisle leaned closer to Esme their lips barely touching "Everything about you is beautiful." Carlisle said before he closed the distance between their lips. Fireworks went off in their minds like the universe was telling them that they truly belong together.
Esme was now practically sitting on Carlisle's lap as the pair continued to kiss and release the feelings they truly had for each other. "C…Carlisle what…what about Jessica?" Esme managed to say as Carlisle stroke her sides he stopped kissing but still held her close to him "I don't know Esme but what I do know it that I'm in love with you and I can't stop myself from loving you Esme I just can't I will figure out something I will all I know now is that I want you and you only." Carlisle admitted kissing her temple. Esme smiled and began to speak "Carlisle I have a confession to make I have always loved always not a day goes and all I can do is think of you." Carlisle kissed her again and held her close feeling like he never wanted to let her go.
"I better go Esme but I promise to see at school tomorrow I promise that I'll a way to make this work because all I really know is that I love you." Carlisle said as the pair got up to go to the front door. "Tomorrow." Carlisle promised pecking Esme one last time before he walked out of her front door.
