I'm so evil! You'll know what I'm talking about at the end of the chapter. But anyhow enjoy!
"Kelly, we can't be together anymore."
Like most of their arguments this had been going on for a solid hour, Kelly couldn't let go, she was in love with Shepard, maybe obsessed.
"Let's just make love like we use to, you'll feel it, the sparks, I swear!" Kelly's lip trembled with fear and distraught at the thought of losing Shepard.
When Shepard was in a relationship she poured her heart and soul into everything, she gave and gave and gave and it never stopped, that's why it was so hard to lose her.
Shepard cringed, make love? With Kelly it doesn't seem right, but with Miranda…imagine hearing Miranda say 'Let's make love.' Just sent tingles up shepard's spine. But it was merely only a dream that would never come true it seems.
"Kelly, I can't make love to you if…if I don't love you. I came here to break up with you, yes, but I want to do it the right way." Shepard tugged at their interlocked hands, "So please let go."
Kelly eyes watered and became red, "I…you're right. You're a beautiful person…just with some kinks."
"Thank you." Shepard laid sweet, short, kiss on Kelly's cheek. "I better go."
My eyes tell their own story when i look at you, I wonder can you read it because that's where you'll find the truth.
I love looking into your eyes and making a story about us, it always ends up with us kissing and touching even the parts where were fighting and fussing. I know we can last because you've captured my heart without me knowing, I'm lost, I don't know where I'm going. So please forgive me so I can give you this.
Miranda read the card over and over and over and over. She wiped the tears from her eyes, she looked at Oriana who had given her the card not too long ago.
"Where is she?" Miranda whispered.
"Outside the door." Oriana said quietly. "Hold on."
Oriana walked out the door and laughed at Shepard, she slammed the door shut so Miranda wouldn't see her.
"What?" Shepard frowned.
Shepard had two hundred white roses with two boxes, I huge blue teddy bear and she was wearing footsie pajamas.
"You really care about her don't you sky? Well, don't worry the feelings mutual. I'll leave you two alone for the night."
"Well yeah didn't you just hear that suck ass poem?" Shepard smiled.
Shepard took a deep breath and took a step into the room, before she looked at Miranda she closed the door.
Shepard still kinda looked a mess, her eyes were still a little black from lack of sleep but right now she was wide awake.
"Hi. I'm Beary sorry I acted like a jerk…and lied." Shepard whispered. "I hope you haven't eaten yet…because I have a surprise for you, if you're up for it."
Miranda stood up and walked over to Shepard. They looked at each other for a while, scanning each other hurt, broken, lost faces.
Miranda grabbed Shepard and held onto her tight running a hand through her hair. "I'm so sorry, I over reacted. I was a major twat."
Shepard smiled a genuine smile, "Miranda, I love you. And Its never felt so great to be in someone's arms."
Miranda stepped back a little, still keeping no distance between them. "Skylar, falling for you was the scariest thing in the world, knowing that I didn't have any control over something that might hurt me was so…"
Shepard lifted Miranda's chin, "I would never hurt you, I want to protect you, take care of you and show you love that you've never experienced before."
They looked into each other's eyes and then their lips, they wanted to so bad, to kiss, but they knew that this would seal their love for each other and it would be no going back.
Shepard leaned in closer, the warm mintyness of Miranda's breath drawing her in closer. When their lips finally collided, it was an overwhelming sensation that washed over them, the tingle in their palms and feet making the weak from the simple kiss.
Shepard broke the kiss, "I want to make love to you…" she was nervous about the words that spilled out of her mouth, the words made the butterflies in her stomach multiply by the dozen when Miranda said nothing and just stared.
"I…I'm not ready." Miranda said under her breath. "Don't get mad, it not that I don't want to it's just I can't."
Shepard nodded, "I'll wait, as long as you need. I don't want to rush things, I just wanted to show you the ultimate love that I posses for you…god I'm sorry I sound like the notebook, it's just that I'm so anxious about this. I don't want to fuck up."
Miranda smiled, "I know I feel the same way. I want us to make love, I do." Miranda rubbed the back of shepard's neck with nothing but care, hoping to soothe her.
Shepard melted at the touch, "We should get going. Before we miss it, I want to make this special."
"So you're probably thinking: sky why'd you bring me up here to this high mountain where you can see the entire city?"
Shepard and Miranda sat in the back of the truck that was full of pillows and blankets and covers.
"Correct." Miranda smiled.
Shepard grinned widely, "Well I'm glad you asked sweetheart, because I guess you're also wondering why I have two bags of mcdonalds? Yes?"
Miranda took a carton of fries out the greasy bag and began to eat them happily, "Yes, I am definitely wondering why you're doing this."
"Well, I'm surprise you haven't guessed it but today's what day? Fourth of July! And I came up here with you, to watch fireworks, From here you can see the most beautiful fireworks in the whole city. I wanted to express to you how I feel when I see you…and for right now this is the only way I can describe it."
Miranda gave Shepard a peck on the lips, "I have feeling this relationship is going to be amazing."
Shepard took Miranda's small slender hand in hers, "You're so perfect and I really do mean it Miranda." Shepard laid down and pulled Miranda into her lap, "What do you want to be when you grow up?"
Miranda cocked a brow,"Grow up? Sky, were eighteen. We're grown up." Miranda put on a cute thinking face making her nose scrunch up, "Buuuuut, I think I want to be a lawyer or some sort of politician."
"What? Noooooo! Too much stress and then our kids will miss mommy and so will I." Shepard pouted.
"Well…I probably won't make it t-"
Shepard silenced Miranda with a kiss, she pulled away and caressed Miranda's face. "I don't want to hear that. I'm going to give you the best life anyone has ever had. You just watch Miri, you've already made it baby."
Miranda let Shepard wipe away a tear that rolled down her cheek, "Our love can concur anything." Shepard whispered, Miranda nodded and laid her head on shepard's chest.
"You want to talk about it? We've never really discussed it and my aunt told me that keeping things bottled up doesn't solve anything."
Miranda didn't say anything.
"Or I can just talk and you can listen?"
Miranda secretly loved shepard's voice, it was smooth like honey and rich like cream. Her English accent made ever word just roll off the tongue, it was music to her ears.
Miranda nodded slowly and burrowed deeper into shepard's lap and neck.
"Alright…I want you to meet my mom, she'd love you, she's in London where I grew up. I miss her I just hope she misses me too. You don't know your mom do you?"
Miranda shook her head.
Shepard smiled, "When we get married my mom can be your mom…that kinda sounds weird."
Miranda let a soft laugh, she never understood the whole when we're married, my moms your mom my dads your dad, it was weird.
Shepard smirked,"I wanted watch the fireworks with you but I guess you're gonna fall asleep soon in my lap, huh?"
Miranda nodded, "pretty much yes, Right here is nice."
Shepard interlocked their left hand and wrapped her right arm around Miranda. Miranda got the message and laid down completely on Shepard.
"I'm not squishing you am I?" Miranda smiled.
Shepard kissed her forehead,"No. Even if you were I wouldn't mind."
Shepard reached in her pocket, "Hey, uh…will you be my girlfriend?" She pulled out the golden rings.
BFF'S forever m&s. Who knew now would be the start of forever.
Miranda was taken back, "Of course, how long have you had these, you loser? And you didn't give it to me?"
Shepard laughed as she slid hers then Miranda's ring on, "Since forever, I was kinda nervous to give it to you just because it was a ring."
Miranda reached up and kissed Shepard. "I love you sky…ugh I wish I had a nickname for you other than sky like something cute."
Shepard chuckled, "Call me babe or baby or sweetheart or something."
Miranda furrowed her brows, "I know I can call you that but I want something special like what would you call me?"
Shepard hummed, "Barbie, because you're perfect."
Miranda laughed, "Ew, no! That's so bad."
"Well I have something to call you babe, I don't need a nickname for you if I already have like ten."
Miranda yawned, "I'll think about it tomorrow…babycakes."
"Damn what time is it?"
Shepard shielded her eyes from the sun, she picked up her phone that had been ringing all night but she was to infatuated in Miranda sleeping she had totally been in a daze.
Twenty miss calls from Oriana.
"Oh fuck." Shepard curse quietly, trying not to wake her new girlfriend.
Shepard silently lifted Miranda off her, She slowly got up from the truck and walked a good distance to call Oriana back.
The phone call was picked up immediately.
Sobs were all you heard from the other end.
Oh this can't be good.
"Sky…it's Miranda!…oh god why?!"
Shepard took a deep breath and prepared for the worst, "Ori call down…please you're scaring me."
She could hear Oriana breathing heavily over the phone, but then becoming quieter and quieter.
"Okay, now tell me what's wrong with Miranda."
