Chapter 12: "The Date"
Leah's POV
Sunday…
October 26th…
Sunday…
I think I'm not getting up today. I've never been so nervous in my entire life! I felt a flock of butterflies' wings were flopping rapidly inside my stomach, no, better yet, a swarm of bees stinging my insides! Today was my not-a-date-but-ended-in-a-date with Derek. We were going cliff diving, in La Push, together, alone, in the beach; alone. And that is my cue to stop!
Well, I could lay here in bed for five more minutes.
Knock, Knock, Knock!
Great! I sighed, still half asleep, when I felt the cold hands of my two vamp friends, when they started to undress me and pull me towards my bathroom.
"What the hell, girls?!" I yelled furiously, as they dragged me from the safe and warm haven of my bed. "I was comfortable there!"
"Yeah, yeah, good for you!" Rosalie said bored. "Now stop this juvenile behavior and go take a bath!" Rosalie said, while pulling me through the bathroom door. Alice was already turning the water on and placing beauty products on the bathroom counter.
"OK, but at least let me have breakfast. Damn it!" I said exasperated.
"No! Take a bath and when you are finished, breakfast will be waiting" Rosalie said. "Esme made Belgian waffles just for you".
Just the thought of Belgian Waffles sent me running to the shower.
"She really is a dog" I heard Rose mutter.
"Shut that mouth, leech" I said jokingly.
After I showered I ate my delicious Belgian Waffles on the bathroom counter I might add, while Rose and Alice started drying my long hair.
"You know guys, I don't see the purpose of drying my hair if I'm gonna throw myself off a cliff!" I said, chewing loudly on my food.
"Ugh, at least, talk when your mouth isn't full, Leah. What would Derek think if he saw you eating like the animal that you really are?!" Alice asked disgusted.
"Whatever!" I said nonchalantly, as I smiled at her reflection on the mirror. "Remember that he's an animal too!" I said sticking my tongue at her. We all laughed but mine came out like someone was strangling me.
"Don't worry Lee, everything is gonna be fine!" Rosalie said seriously.
"Yeah, I don't know why I'm so nervous. I tend not to be a nervous person for goodness sake!" I said. "I just, I… I don't know if I can stand rejection again." I mumbled.
"Oh, Lee, everything is gonna be fine!" Alice said sympathetically.
"Yeah, Leah, Derek is crazy about you! Every time he sees you his heart rate speeds up and he gets that goofy grin on his face." Rosalie added, as she smiled at my reflection on the mirror. I grinned back at her.
"He does?" I asked hopeful. They are lying! They are describing me instead of him!
"Yes, he does! It's just that you are trying so hard not to jump his bones in that moment that you become oblivious to the fact that he is crazy about you!"
Whatever, I'm just gonna ignore them; this date is going to go smoothly! Perfectly! Leah Clearwater doesn't get nervous because of a date! I'm confident, smart, witty, hot and strong!
After one hour of drying my hair and applying different kinds of creams on my body I was ready to get dressed and wait for Derek. I was excited now, this was going to be a great day! Just because I said so!
Alice had everything ready for me, a purple and black Guess bikini that had animal prints. It was fitting for the occasion. I put on dark jean shorts and a white "V" neck T-Shirt with purple, pink and blue stripes, a purple Mark Jacob's tote, black Jimmy Choo Flip Flops and a pair of black Carrera sunglasses and purple and pink bracelets. (Pics On My Homepage).
I have to admit that I looked pretty hot myself, the shorts showed my long tanned and lean legs and the white T-Shirt contrasted perfectly with my dark skin tone.
"Derek is gonna die when he sees you, Leah!" Alice said excitedly.
"Yeah, the puppy is gonna pee himself!" Rosalie said laughing.
"Yeah, really funny Rose, really funny!" I said rolling my eyes at her.
We went downstairs and watched TV for a while waiting for Derek to get here when there was a knock on the door.
"I'll get it!" I said excitedly, my heart was beating erratically against my chest.
I opened the door and there stood the most fucking magnificent and HOT guy in the world! Derek stood in the doorway in all his sexy glory wearing a pair of Volcom swim trunks, a tight Fox white shirt and black Flip Flops. The shirt showed his well defined chest and abs making melt on the spot. (Pic on my Homepage)
Concentrate Leah; there will be no jumping your imprint today!
"Hey, Der" I said casually.
"Hey, Lee," he said, staring down at me, as he scrutinize me with his blue eyes. "Wow, you look, well, amazing!" Derek blushed.
"You don't look so bad yourself," I smirked. "Shall we go?"
He seemed to have come down from his high and nodded smiling at me. "Sure, Lee, let's go".
"Bye, Rose, Alice, thanks!" I shouted into the house.
"Bye, sweetie, have fun!" Alice yelled back.
"But not too much!" Rosalie continued.
Derek and I looked at each other and laughed. "Come on, let's go." Derek said, taking my hand in his and leading me through the forest towards the mansion to get his car.
"So, what do you have planned for today, Der?" I asked.
"Don't worry, I have everything planned out for an amazing day together!" He said smiling at me. "First, we are going to eat something. I'm starving!" He laughed.
When we got to the house Embry and Quil were heading towards the woods to phase. I guess they were going to patrol today, when they saw me, their eyes bulged out of their sockets. "Wow, Leah, you sure know how to clean up!" Quil said.
"Yeah, you look great, Leah." Embry said, he tried to play like nothing was happening but I could see the hurt in his eyes.
"So, we were going to patrol while you were in La Push. If anything comes up call us or just howl." Embry said, avoiding my gaze.
"Yeah, have a great date." Quil said in a sing-song voice while winking mischievously at Derek. I looked at Derek with a raised eyebrow but he just laughed and pulled me towards the garage. When we got to the garage Derek opened the passenger's door of his Lambo for me and headed to the driver's side quickly.
"So, where are we going to eat?" I asked. I hope he hadn't planned anything with a picnic or anything.
"We are going to eat at a diner called "Vicky's" in La Push. I heard they prepare the best Fried Fish in La Push. I'm sure it's not going to be as good as your dad's, but," I stopped him, placing my index finger on his lips before he started to ramble.
"Thanks. I think is a great idea, Der." I smiled at him. He seemed to relax after that, it felt nice that someone wanted me to feel comfortable and at ease.
We drove in a comfortable silence towards Vicky's and parked close to the entrance.
When we got there Derek got out of the car and rushed to my side so that he could open the door for me. He was such a gentleman, but I loved him… lov-? Whatever…
"You're such a dork!" I teased him, but took his hand so that he would relax.
"Whatever makes you happy Lee." He said contently. "Wait, Alice gave me these, it's supposed to be cold remember?" He said while handling me a purple Guess sweater and putting on himself a black Volcom sweater.
"Oh, right. I guess we should put this on, for the humans' sake" I said teasingly. We laughed and continued to walk hand in hand towards the diner.
When we got in the smell of wolves hit me like a ton of bricks. The third pack of wolves (the ones that phased after the Volturi fiasco) were eating and joking around with their imprints. Kane and Kendra; Lulu and Kevin; Ruly and Sasha; Will and Monica; Aden and Nataly; Victor and Jamie and Jhon and Ally (PICS ON MY HOMEPAGE). They instantly sensed me and looked my way. I just nodded towards their direction and dragged Derek to the first booth I could find, he looked at me curiously but let it go.
We sat on a booth on the left side of the diner, away from the pack but I could still feel their eyes on my back. Derek took this opportunity to look at me directly in the eye and whispered. "They are wolves, right?" He asked curiously, while tucking a strand of hair behind my ear.
I just nodded. "They are the wolves that phased during the Volturi thing-y"
"OK, so let's continue with our date." He said cheerfully, offering me that dazzling smile of his. I still couldn't believe this man was mine, mine, and only mine!
"Hey, guys, I'm Daniel, I'm gonna be your waiter this eve-" I stopped mid sentence when he looked at me. I guess he was attracted to me, Derek didn't like it one bit.
"So, you're gonna stand there ogling my date all day or are you actually gonna take our orders?" He asked sarcastically.
Daniel immediately flinched and tore his eyes away from me. Poor guy, he must have peed his pants! But I have to admit; a jealous Derek was sexy as Hell!
"Um, yeah, sorry" Daniel chocked, as he cleared his throat. "So, what do you guys want to drink?"
"I'll have a Coke, please." Derek answered and turned to me "And you, Lee?"
"I'll have a Sprite, thanks" I smiled at Daniel but he immediately looked away and murmured a quick. "I'll be back with your drinks".
"Did you have to smile? Really?" Derek said annoyed, but I could see that he was trying really hard not to smile.
"What?" I asked innocently.
"You know what, don't use that innocent tone with me. I can see through you." He said finally smiling at me.
I instantly smirked at him. "What, can I only smile at you?" I said while I moved my head to look at him directly in the eye.
He gulped hard, but regained his composure quickly. "Yes, does that bother you, because you're mine." He said huskily, our noses were touching now.
"Here are your drinks; a Coke and a Sprite." Daniel said hurriedly, flinching slightly when he noticed that Derek wasn't happy at his interruption. Silly wolf! "Do you know what you're gonna order?"
"Yes, I'll have the Fried Fish with mashed potatoes and shrimp." I said. I always ate this when my dad was too tired to cook. I'm actually surprised that they still served it.
Daniel wrote the order on his notepad and turned to Derek. "And you, sir?"
"I'll have the same." He said without taking his eyes off me.
"OK, I'll be back with your orders in a couple of minutes." He said quickly and left.
"Haven't you noticed how people keep interrupting us" Derek said smiling cockily at me.
"Yes, I have." The image of a shirtless Derek in his room and the almost kiss immediately popped to my head. Stop it Leah, now is not the time…
We stared at each other's eyes for a while when my cell-phone started ringing. It was Seth; he had his own personalized ringtone. I quickly looked for my phone in my purse and answered.
"Hey, lil bro," I said smiling; I totally forgot that he didn't call me yesterday! "Why didn't you call me last night? You promised." I said teasingly.
"Hey, sis, well, after she said YES! And I took her home… We got a little sidetracked." He said. I could swear he had a stupid smile on his face.
"Yuck, Seth-y, too much information!" I said in a high pitched voice, "I told you she was going to say Yes! I'm happy for you Seth." I said smiling.
"Thanks, sis! Angie is so excited. We want the wedding to be on Fe-" Seth said excitedly till I cut him off.
"Let me guess, February 14!" I said laughing.
"Oh, another guess… Alice?" Seth said.
"Yep, I should warn you though… Tell Angie to prepare when you guys come for your birthday, the little pixie can be a little intense." I said.
"Well, I should probably warn her. So, anything new?"
"Nope, just eating," I said, Derek looked at me questionably but I just winked at him.
"Oh, OK… I'm gonna leave you to that then." He said, "Take care, sis, Love Ya! See you soon" He finished.
"Bye, bro, take care, say "Hi" to Angie for me." I said and hung up.
"Your brother doesn't know?" Derek asked looking hurt "Why?"
"Um, I wanted to give him the surprise when he came for his birthday, he is always telling me how it was going to happen and stuff like that." I said rolling my eyes but smiling none the less.
"Oh, OK" He said smiling, "I like your brother, he seems to love you very much."
"He does. He's always been there for me." I said smiling but dreading the time when I had to tell Derek all about me. Was he going to reject me? Be mad at me?
"That's good." He smiled. "I always wanted to have a brother, or a sister, someone that I could always go to. But I guess I don't need it anymore." He looked at me intensely.
Oh God help me! He's fucking trying to kill me! I'm sure he is!
"I… um, it's…ah," I couldn't find the words in me to answer him, but luckily Dani came to the rescue!
"Here are your fried fish with mashed potatoes and shrimp." Daniel said, putting the plates in front of us. "Hope you enjoy it." He smiled and left quickly after that.
We started to eat and talked about childhood memories, random stuff, life, food, and games, anything we could come up with!
After we finished eating we ordered Hot Brownie with Vanilla Ice Cream and stuff our faces with it. I couldn't really remember having such a good time, not even with Sam. Sam was sweet and caring but the didn't look at me the way Derek did or talked to me the way he did. Maybe faith was right and we weren't meant to be together like I thought. Just when Derek went up to pay the bill Kendra, Kane's Imprint came to the table.
"Hey, Leah" She said shyly, she was probably scared of me.
"Hey, Kendra, how's college doing?" I asked.
"Um, good!" She said smiling, "So, the guys tell me your friend is a wolf, but none of them had ever seen him." Oh, so that is what this is about.
"Um, yeah, Derek's new, he's in Jake's pack. Well, we're done here. I have a date to finish." I said coolly. Damn wolves, always getting their noses where they don't belong!
Kendra looked surprised by the world "date" but I ignored it. Derek came up to the table and took my hand in his. "So, are ya ready to throw yourself off a cliff?" He asked me teasingly.
"Yeah, totally!" I smiled at him and looked at Kendra, she looked stunned by my controlled behavior. I'm sure she must think I'm a bitch or something. Well, I was but not anymore I guess, that doesn't mean I'm not still kick-ass bad-ass Leah! "See ya around Kendra, and tell your friends to keep their snouts where they belong." I smiled sarcastically at her and dragged a stunned Derek with me.
When we got into the car, Derek started fidgeting in his seat; I knew he wanted to ask what had happened back there. "I'll tell you later, 'kay?" I smiled at him for reassurance.
That made him stop and look up at me. "You don't have to if you don't want, Lee." He caught my chin in this warm hands and made me look at him in the eyes. "I can tell is a touchy subject for you." He finished, smiling for reassurance.
I caught his hand in mine before he could take it off and kissed his palm while looking at him. I could feel the tremors running down his whole body. "Thanks, Der, but I want to tell you. I just want to cliff dive first!" I said excitedly. I wasn't going to ruin this date so early!
"OK, let's go!" He smiled again and started to drive towards First Beach. When we got to the beach, it was completely deserted. Well, it's not weird; humans could die if they got in the water in this time of the year. It was cold! Derek got a bag out of the trunk of the car and brought it with us to the cliffs. I'm sure Alice had something to do with it! While we were going up the cliff I decided to ask.
"So, I'm guessing Alice gave you that bag?" I smiled when he nodded.
"In fact, she did. She told me we were going to need it after we finished cliff-diving." He answered. "And I have no clue what is the contents of this bag." He lifted the bag to make his point.
"That's what I thought." I laughed. "Alice can be like that sometimes"
"Sometimes?" He asked amused.
"OK, most of the time. Or all the time, but I still love her." I laughed.
"Yeah, the Cullens are great. I've never felt so cared and at peace." He said with a pensive look on his face. "It's not that my parents didn't love me. It's just that they were trying to win my love with things that I really didn't need. They didn't understand that I would've preferred to spend a weekend with them, than receive the toys or the video games that they got me. Their love was enough. I just never had the chance to tell them." He finished sadly.
"Hey, come on! Cheer up, I sure they knew, it just that sometimes it's difficult to show that we care about someone without screwing it up or doing the exact opposite of what we think is right." I squeezed his hand for support and smiled at him.
He squeezed my hand back and smiled, "You're right… God, I'm so happy I imprinted on you." He said engulfing me in a hug. I could feel his scent engulfing and intoxicating me. I was starting to feel every single part of my body reacting to his touch. I needed to stop before I ended up saying nothing and letting myself go!
"OK, enough with the mushy stuff, the last one to get to the top of the cliff is a vampire!" And that's when we started running.
Derek's POV:
We ran at not-so-human speed toward the cliff. Leah was really fast, faster than me actually. But I could see she was holding back on me, so that she wouldn't leave me in the dust. God how I love that woman. Yes, I, Derek Ateara, was in LOVE with LEAH CLEARWATER! I wanted to shout it out to the world, but I don't think Lee would've appreciated it.
She was my everything; she was all I could have ever wanted! She was sweet, caring, witty, smart, and hot as hell and strong. What was not to like about her? I know she had a hard past, but I could make her forget, I loved her and I wanted her to be mine and only mine!
When we got to the top of the cliff we both had to catch our breaths, of course Leah had to catch it faster than me!
"So, you ready?" She asked smiling widely.
"Sure, if you are. I still can't believe you're going to jump, at least, let me just jump with you!" I begged her.
"Um, just so you won't get scared though." She said laughing.
"Yeah, whatever makes you jump with me." I smiled and took my shirt of and my flip flops. I could feel her eyes on me, and shivers went down my spine making the hairs on my neck stand on its end. "Lee, you have to take your shirt of too, unless you want to dive dressed like that." I teased her.
She blushed, a deep scarlet red and mumbled a "whatever" but I was not expecting what happened next. Leah took her shorts, shirt and flip flops off and that only left on her was her sexy purple and black bikini. Her skin seemed to glisten under the little bit of sun light. Her long tanned and toned legs were perfect and made me want to do thing that were not legal to this goddess that stood before me. How the hell did I get so lucky? Her long hair fell to her shoulders and chest, blocking my view of her womanly attributes. Shit!
Think of ugly things Derek, quick! Um, they day I found grandma and grandpa doing the naughty on the couch, yep, that did it!
"So, are you ready or did you chicken out?" Leah teased; well… at least one of us had enough control!
"I'm not a chicken! Come on!" I moved closer to her and took both of her hands in mine and led her towards the end of the cliff. It was a long jump but we could manage it and survive.
"You ready?" I whispered in Leah's ear, while I presses her body tightly to mine and locked my hands around her waist making us both shiver in delight.
Leah just nodded and mumbled an "Mmm-Hmm" and looked directly into my eyes. "I'm ready" She smiled.
"OK, hold on tight." I said and we jumped down the cliff. The feeling of the cold air was relaxing and I could feel the rush of adrenaline cursing through our bodies. We laughed from the exhilaration and crashed smoothly into the waves; the water was cold but not enough to make us uncomfortable. When we resurfaced from the water Leah started laughing.
"God, that felt so good! It's been a long time since I cliff-dived!" She got closer to me and placed her hands around my neck. "Did you have fun?" She asked me in a seductive voice. Yep, that was the voice that was going to be the end of me.
I gulped and just nodded. She was oblivious to what her body was doing to me! "We should head back to shore. We can jump a few more times" I said.
Her smiled faltered a bit but didn't disappeared completely, she pushed me under the water and started swimming as fast as she could towards the shore. But I was a faster swimmer so when she was about to get to the shoreline, I caught her by the waist and pulled her over my shoulders and ran at full speed towards the top of the cliff laughing and just enjoying ourselves.
We dived a couple of times more and joked around and raced each other. She was a fast runner but I was a faster swimmer so it was interesting. I even let her jump alone one time, I think it wasn't that I was scared of her getting hurt, it was more like I could stop the feeling of her body pressed to mine.
When the night came we decided to see what Alice had stored for us in her giant bag, as it turns out, it was a giant blanket, some pillows, food –thanks to God!- and some other snacks and sodas.
After Leah put her shorts on, we started to arrange the blanket on the ground. When everything was settled, we started eating the sandwiches and fries. We talked some more and joke around. When we finished eating, we placed the trash in a garbage bag. Everything was amazing and great. Leah turned serious, her expression grave as she looked me in the eyes. I couldn't read her expression. She had put thick walls around herself, as if she was shielding her heart from me.
"Before I tell you something really important/ You have to know that I haven't always been like this... this I-love-vampires, I-don't-have-a-care-in-the-world-attitude. So, if you want to hear me out and if you accept me after I tell you everything maybe we can try an-" I stopped her before she could continue.
"Lee, you know I don't care about how you were before-" But she stopped me.
"Look, just hear me out, OK?" She asked seriously.
"OK" I mumbled, kissing her index finder which was preventing my lips from talking.
"OK, let's start with Sam. Sam was my ex-boyfriend. He and I went to the same grade school and middle school, but I never gave him the light of day, until we got to high school. On our junior year he asked me out on a date. I accepted just because I knew he had been crushing on me since forever. But after that first date I accepted the second one and so on…" She paused regaining her thoughts and took a deep breath. "We didn't even know it, but we fell for each other. On our senior year we were inseparable. We did everything together. My parents loved him and his mother loved me like a daughter, she thought I was the best thing that could have happened to her son…" She said bitterly. "When we finally graduated we had so many plans for our lives. We wanted to go to college together, have our own home and have children and live happily ever after. He even asked me to marry him! And I said yes. That's when I gave him my everything I gave him my heart, body and soul." Tears were threatening to fall down her face but she held them steady. Just the mere thought of someone having Leah like that made my blood boil! Before I could even react she continued, "A month after that Sam disappeared, no one knew where he was. I organized search parties for him. I was devastated. I even thought he was dead! I was a completely broken; my life didn't didn't matter or had any meaning to me, if he wasn't in it. What was the point in living a life then you felt so miserable and broken. I didn't find the purpose in life any more. I stopped eating, sleeping, talking, nothing mattered to me. I was void of all emotion. I was just a carcass of a body, but Sam did came back. He had changed. He was taller, his body temperature was too hot to be considered healthy. He'd gained muscles and he'd cut his long hair. I didn't question him when he came back. He didn't want to talk about it and I was fine with that, as long as I had him beside me. He even told me that he wasn't going to the University anymore. I accepted it, I never questions why he trembled when he was angry or why he had to leave in the middle of the night. He asked me to marry him again some weeks after his return and I accepted. We were going to move to his mother's house. She was moving to Seattle and had left him the house, we had everything planned. My cousin and best friend Emily was arriving that night from the Makah Reservation; she was going to stay for the summer before she went to college. She was beautiful and caring, unique and loyal. We were planning on announcing our engagement that night as soon as she arrived…" Leah took another breath to steady herself and I caught her hands in mine and draw small circles on the palm of her soft hand. She calmed herself and continued. "Sam had to run some errands, but he promised to arrive after Emily got to my house. I was so excited, Emily was my best friend and I was going to ask her to be my Maid of Honor. She was like a sister to me! That night when she arrived, I told her that I had a surprise, she was so excited, when Sam arrived she went to open the door. When they didn't enter I went to see what had happened to them. I found Sam staring at Emily, like she was his whole world not even in our most intimate moments he looked at me like that. I instantly knew that something was wrong. I felt betrayed and used; all my dreams came crashing down. I took a last look at the scene that was in front of me and ran towards my room. I cried and cried all night; no one dared to enter my room. I was miserable, my life had ended. I thought that I wouldn't be able to love again; I felt hopeless…"
A single tear ran down her beautiful face and she smiled sadly at me. I wiped the tears that fell on her cheek and waited patiently for her to continue. "As fate would have it, Emily and Sam started talking. I knew all of these because Seth was my little spy. I didn't even leave my room and I refused to talk to anybody besides Seth. Weeks later the news that Emily had been mauled by bear circulated the entire reservation. I rushed to the hospital, I was decided to never forgive her but I still loved her. Sam was in her hospital room, when I entered. He looked broken and plain miserable. A side of Emily's face and arms was completely scarred. There were three long scars running down her face, making the side of her mouth turn into a perpetual frown. The worst part was that I forgave her that moment. But a part of me was hoping that maybe after this Sam would come back to me. But he didn't; he loved her even more! They moved together after Emily got out of the hospital. I was broken before, but after the news of them living together, I was completely numb and dead inside. I didn't even want to live. I became bitter and angry at the world; I lashed at everyone and didn't care about anyone's feelings. I felt that maybe that way I could forget about mine for a minute or two"
"But fate didn't think my life was miserable enough, no, after a while I decided to talk to my dad. We made a little family gathering to talk about all that had happened. When I heard my dad talking so proudly about Sam and how Emily had been so good to him I couldn't take it. I couldn't believe that my dad, my hero; really thought that they were meant for each other. He was supposed to support me; that led to a fight with Seth. He wanted everything to be, be OK, and I wasn't agreeing to that. Consequently, making us phase in front of my mom and dad at the same time. My dad was already had a frail heart and the shock of seeing both of his children phase did the trick. His heart couldn't take it. I killed him!" She caught her breath like someone had punched her in the stomach and started holding her sides for dear life. I embraced her in my arms and sat her on my lap trying my best to console her"
"Shh, I'm here baby, it wasn't your fault. It was no one's fault, you didn't deserve any of it." I kissed her head several times till she calmed down. "You don't have to continue if you don't want to." I told her.
"No, I'm OK," She answered but stayed in my lap. "After that I knew everything. I understood why Sam disappeared, why he changed. I found out that he had imprinted on Emily that night. I found out that he lost control with Emily just once and that is why she was in the hospital, with those scars on her face. I could feel everything he felt and all the other wolves. I couldn't take the pity that emanated from them all, so I decided that I preferred them to hate me than to pity me. That's when I became Bitchy-Leah. I made Sam suffer by showing him repeatedly the day when he mauled Emily. I made the pack member's lives impossible. I found out each of the boys weaknesses and tortured them repeatedly. I called Embry a Bastard-Child and Quil a pedophile; everyone hated me. I was fine that way; they didn't have the chance to pity me after all." She snorted. "I was so stupid! That's when Jake decided to separate from Sam's pack and I took the opportunity to free myself from him. I knew that I couldn't get over him if I continued living in his mind, and well, the rest you know." She finished and took a deep breath, she relaxed completely, it was like she had been carrying a huge weight in her shoulders and suddenly everything was lifted of her.
After a while of just staying in each other's arms she looked up at me, "I understand if you hate me, after all, all the things I did, I don't deser-"
I stopped her by pressing my lips to her; I separated myself from her till our foreheads were touching, her breathing was raged and mine was too, I could feel our hearts trumping erratically.
"I don't care about the past, no one is perfect. You went through a lot, and everyone deserves a second chance. You deserve one. I'm really happy I imprinted on you, Lee. Seriously, you're perfect for me. I want you in my life forever and ever. I want to stay by your side for the rest of our eternity and I promise that I'm never going to hurt you!" I said fervently to her, trying to make her understand that nothing she said to me was going to make me love her less.
In that moment she caught my face in her hands and kissed me, this kiss was what I have been waiting for from the day I met her!
Her lips tasted like oranges and vanilla. I glided my tongue over her soft lips, stopping briefly, asking permission to enter her mouth, wanting, needing to explore every inch of her lips. I wanted to taste the delicious wine of her love. Her breath tingled on my skin, making me want her more…
"I love you, Lee." I panted. I wanted to show her how much I loved her, how much I needed her. She needed to know how much she meant to me, and that nothing was going to change that.
"I love you too, Der, with all my heart. I'm so happy I imprinted on you!" She smiled at me and resumed the kiss. My hands went up her stomach touching the soft skin of her toned belly, when sounds came from the forest.
We turned to look at the source of the noise and suddenly a tall man came from the woods shaking like crazy and yelled at me. "Get your fucking filthy hands of Lee Lee right now, asshole!"
Oh, brother!
