*Eating chili with Sirius* Red Ninja*Raspberry White Chocolate Mocha Medea didn’t notice his jaw tighten or his fist clench, all she could think about was getting this story off her chest. Coming clean, being honest and being in love with him. This was her goal so she kept going, only stopping to take a quick breath between sentences.
Once she reached the end and said those three words she held her breath, waiting for his response. He stood there, emotionless. No, no, no! Her stomach churned, she thought she might vomit. She just knew he was in love with that blond floozy! Medea wanted to die. This is it…. My life is over. The woman looked to the floor as she considered running out the door. Wait… was that a footstep? She looked up and when she did he was in front of her. The woman felt his eyes boring into hers and then the warmth of his hands on her face. Her eyes searched his for an answer. Why is he crying!? Is it because he loves Meredith and feels sorry for Medea, or he loves Medea and is happy?! Please let it be the second option.
And then, he said it. HE LOVES ME! The weight of the world was lifted, life was wonderful. The perfect moment was consummated with a kiss that was so powerful she thought she might fall to the floor. She wrapped her arms around him and deepened the kiss.
This was the best moment in her entire life. Nothing had ever felt this perfect.
After a few very intense moments she pulled from the kiss, ”Leo, I love you. I….” She bit her tongue, unknowingly she had the same spontaneous thought he did. Let’s get married NOW! She knew he was he one, she knew he was the only one. But she also knew they needed time to get to know each other because in reality they knew very little of each other. She continued speaking, ”I’m yours, forever.” |
