True love

Sinead

"Good morning!" I chirped as Jesse looked at me. I don't why I'm in such a good mood today. I haven't woken up happy in so long. This feels amazing.

"Good morning." Jesse smiled then kissed me.

I kissed back and he pulled me on top of him. A little kiss turns into a full blown make out session. Jesse is such an amazing kisser, I could kiss him again and again.

As I pull away, he just stares at me. His eyes looking at every inch of my face. Is there something on my face? Do I look ugly? Oh god he thinks I look ugly. I climb off of him as quickly as possible then dart to my connected bathroom.

I close and lock the door. I sit on the toilet and begin to silently cry. For some reason I can't help but to think of Julian. It feels like deja vu. We had a morning like that right before shit got bad, what if I'm going through the same thing again? Am I repeating a cycle? What if I'm not pretty enough or good enough for Jesse? What if Kira comes back in the picture?

There was a soft knock at the door. "Sin, what's going on?" Jesse asked. I don't say anything, I just continue to softly cry.

I hate that Julian did this to me. I hate that because I was so in love, I ignored the signs, ignored my intuition and gut feelings, ignored the red flags. I should've left the first time he hurt me.

There was another knock and Jesse began pleading for me to open the door. I can't do this to him, I at least have to tell him how I feel. I wipe my tears and stand up.

I open the door and he immediately pulls me into his arms. "Sin, I'm not Julian. I gave you my word I wasn't gonna hurt you. I know it's hard to trust me right now but I'm reassuring you that I got you, you're safe with me." He whispered then kissed the top of my head.

"You won't give up on me?" I ask lowly.

"Are you kidding? Give up? I'll go through the depths of hell and back before I even think of giving up on you."

I sniffle away a tear and smile. "I love you Jess."

"I love you so much more bunny, now let's get you something to eat. I'm sure your little munchkins are starving in there."

I chuckled as we pull away because they are starving. He grabs my hand and we walk to the kitchen. Harper was already up and making breakfast. She's such an early bird, it kills me.

"Good morning my love bugs." She smiles.

Jesse greets her with a good morning and I do with a hug and a kiss on the cheek. We sit down at the island and watch as she flips a pancake.

"So did anything happen after we went to bed last night?" I asked with a raised eyebrow.

"We exchanged numbers and he asked to take me out tonight." She said as she blushed a little. Oh hell yeah, my plan worked!

"And are you going?" I asked and she nods.

"Yes! Now we can find you something sexy to wear!" I exclaimed causing her to laugh.

They'll be out tonight, I wonder what Jesse and I are gonna do? Probably play Mario kart. Which don't get me wrong, I love playing with him, but he's a try hard! It gets me physically angry I swear. I have to look up cheat codes or something.

After breakfast, Harper and I go to get dressed. I shower then put on a navy blue, off the shoulder top and jeans. I slipped on a pair of sandals then curled my hair.

"You look beautiful." Jesse said then kissed my cheek. I love that he compliments me any chance he gets. It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

"Are you gonna be okay here by yourself babe?" I asked and he nodded.
