Rejected For My Secrets

Chapter 18

Early update for you guys! Got me 20 votes on the last chapter! Thank you! <3

This chapter is just full of cute Alex + Hailey moments! I tried to make this chapter as long as I could for you because I won’t be posting for a long time (3 weeks minimum) since I have term tests coming up soon and I have another story to work on. But I promise you, if this chapter gets 35+ votes and 5+ comments, I will make sure to squeeze some time for the next chapter!

Chapter 18

Alex’s POV

She kissed me!

My mate, soul, and life kissed me!

The fireworks that I felt were immense and I got dizzy from the taste of her lips.  I knew then just how much Hailey meant to me, and I silently vowed to make sure that I never let her go. She pushed my down on the bed and crawled on top of me as mini-me stirred awake. I had to stop her because if we continued, I wouldn’t have been able to stop, and I knew that she needed time after all that had happened to her.

I pulled away and she pouted irresistibly almost making me kiss her again without pulling away before I had my way with her until she couldn’t breathe.

“Does that mean that you forgive me?” I asked desperately.

“Kind of, but it will take time to completely forgive you,” she said and I grinned. She didn’t know how much those words meant to me, but I promised myself to make her aware how much I loved her. Just then, the perfect way of confessing my love to her popped into my mind.

“Can I take you to our first official date tonight, then?”

 “Sure, but can we make us official?” she asked, and I almost rolled my eyes at her insecurity. She didn’t know it, but she was the one with all the control in this relationship.

“Of course, matey,” I playfully answered. I loved being able to freely call her my mate, and I had a feeling to it would be easy to get used to. “Wear something fancy and I’ll pick you up at seven,” I stated and bid her a goodbye before leaving her house. I didn’t even know why I idiotically missed out on this loving experience by rejecting this beautiful girl of my dreams.

Hailey’s POV

I couldn’t believe the twists that my life was making. It was like that period of time was made to change my life eternally, without keeping any part of it normal.

When I heard the doorbell, I ran up to the door pushing my dad out of the way and fell face first on the floor. I groaned as I pushed myself up and opened the door. There stood Casey grinning and holding a massive bag. I rolled my eyes already knowing what that bag contained, and pulled Hailey inside walking with her to my bedroom.

“So, who is the hunky guy that’s taking my best friend out tonight? Should I be worried?” She started as soon and I closed my door’s room and dropped the bag on my bed. I rolled my eyes as I answered her.

“No, you shouldn’t worry. It’s my mate.”

“Mate? Who is it?!” She yelled excitedly.

“Alex,” I replied nonchalantly, but I knew that she couldn’t keep it that way.

“Alex?! But how didn’t you directly know? He should have told you!”

And that was how I shared my story with Casey for the first time. She listened intently and carefully as I told her what has happened in the past few weeks. I went on from how Alex was my mate and how I decided to break up with Hunter and how today passed by.
