Into the light

by Skovko

Roman has never been so happy as he is with Kay. He's sure she's the one despite her having secrets that she still hasn't shared with him. One night home visiting her father, and everything in her life seems to fall apart. She runs to the one place she feels safe. Roman. Those secrets suddenly see the light of day and all he wants to do is protect her.

1. We love each other equally

Roman grabbed Kay's hand and pulled her back down on the bed. He wrapped his arms and legs around her, pushed her long, strawberry blonde hair out of the way, and started kissing her neck. She laughed and tried getting free but he was stronger than her.

"Roman, please!" She laughed. "I have to go."
"Stay," he said.
"Roman!" She laughed even louder.

He lifted his head and looked into her soft brown eyes. He could get lost in those eyes any time.

"I have to go," she repeated. "I promised my father I would come."
"Come back afterwards," he said.
"Really?" She asked.
"I'm having the boys over. They won't mind. They like you," he said.
"I don't feel like intruding on boys night," she said.

He smiled and leaned down for a kiss. He understood where she was coming from. He was so happy he had found a girlfriend that got along so well with his friends and family. Her not wanting to intrude on boys night came from a good heart. She wanted him to continue seeing his friends without her too.

"I love you," he said.
"I love you more," she said.
"Not possible," he said.
"I beg to differ," she said.

He leaned down and kissed her neck again. Once again she laughed at his ticklish kisses.

"Stop!" She squealed.
"Say I love you more," he laughed.
"We love each other equally," she said.
"Alright," he lifted his head. "I can agree to that."
"You're crazy," she giggled.
"Crazy about you," he said.

He kissed her one more time, then sat up and pulled her up with him.

"If you change your mind, you're more than welcome to join us tonight," he said.
"I know," she smiled. "Fuck, I got so lucky finding you. I've honestly never been this happy before."
"I feel the same," he said.

That was the truth. Despite some things she wasn't willing to talk about, he had never felt this happy. Everything seemed easy with her. Whatever secrets she was hiding could wait for when she was ready to share them. He didn't care as long as he had her. She was the one. He was sure about it.

"And now I really gotta go or I'll be late," she said.
"You can borrow my car," he said.
"It's only a 15 minutes walk," she said.
"But if you got my car, you have to come back here," he said.
"Roman!" She laughed. "You're impossible sometimes, and I love you even more for it. I'll call you later to say goodnight."
"Or you can stop by and tell me in person," he said.

She laughed and leaned in to peck his lips. She slipped out of his arms gracefully and was over by the door before he even figured out that she had escaped the bed.

"Fine, you win," he chuckled. "But you better put on that sexy bedroom voice when you call."
"Maybe," she smirked. "If you're a good boy."
"Oh, I'll be good, Kay," he smirked back. "I'll be damn good. I'll be the goodest boy ever."

She snorted in laugher, shook her head, and blew him a kiss before walking away. He heard her laugh all through the house. He got up and ran through the house. He caught her by the front door, swung her around, and kissed her deeply. He opened the front door behind her before breaking the kiss. She kept her eyes closed for a second longer and it made him grin like a kid on Christmas.

"You gotta go," he reminded her.
"Right!" She laughed again. "I'll talk to you later."
