The Rebound

Joseph

Well I just calmed down my beauty. I smiled at her as she wrapped her arms around me my Alexa turned on and began playing music making me and Nicole laugh

"Since when did she think it was a good time to play music?"Nicole giggled

"Maybe it is"I said as I placed my hands onto her hips and gently swayed to the music with her.

And I need you to know that we're
Fallin' so fast, we're fallin' like the stars, fallin' in love
And I'm not scared to say those words
With you I'm safe, we're fallin' like the stars, we're fallin' in love

"You know that this song fits us too perfect"Nicole said as she wrapped her arms around me.

"I know. But it's true"I said with a smile.

"Yeah but apart from the fact we are in love"

"Yes baby. We are. I wouldn't change that for the world. I'm yours. So I think I need to do something"I said looking at her

"Joseph?"she said to me.

"I've been wanting to do this for a long time I just needed the confidence and well I have it"I took my shirt off.

"J-"I cut her off my placing her hand on my scars.

"I'm in love with you and I'm yours only yours"I said as tears fell down my cheeks. Her face was cover with tears as she gently traced her hand along my scars.

"Joseph"She said slowly and happily.

"What did I say to you the night I told you about everything?"

"If I were too let you you'd be the one I loved deeply and I couldn't live without you"She said.

"So do you believe me? I'm not him Nicole. I need you. I love you no matter what. Not even if we have to live in a shitty house or earn less money I couldn't give a shit as long as I had my world and my little man then I couldn't care less because that's all I need. All I want is you and well. Your my family"I said to her. She wrapped her arms tightly around me and kissed me passionately.

"I know your not. I've needed you for so long I just wish we didn't hide our feelings. I just wish I was yours earlier. I would've been so much more stronger"

"Bub you are so fucking strong and I'm so proud of you. So fucking proud of you. You've been through so much. I love you so much for that reason Bub.  I wouldn't have tired to change if it weren't for you. I'd be too afraid to be the man I wanted to be. I didn't want to have a weakness. I always believed that love will surrender. And I wouldn't go down without a fight. I always left room for other contenders
'Cause I might change my mind
Damn, I used to be so cold
We never ever get too close
Didn't ever wanna lose control"

"You made me believe that love was forever. And love could sustain us through every fight. You'll let go of all of the other. Pretenders they were wasting your time"she said

"I could see it from the stars
That I gave you my heart.
From the moment that I met you
Knew that I would never let you
Slip away"I said
