A story where an 18 year old innocent girl that works at a small library in the middle of town bumps into a 25 year old man. But he wasn't just any man, this man was Zuko Grey , the most powerful man in the world. When Zuko the supposed 'heartless k...
Following our little detour to Walmart (Cameri's favourite store) i was now driving towards the cliffs where we were supposed to be going in the first place. i found these cliffs when i was about 10 and my father had just made me kill an innocent man who he'd thought was a snake.
After he made me do it i ran away, past my mother and all of the maid's we had cleaning around our house. my mother. a beautiful, gentle woman with no bad bone in her body. she was the only one that actually cared about me and always would help me in the fucked up situations my father would put me in. blame me for.
In Cameri i see that same gentleness she had. my mother taught me all about how a woman should be treated while my father on the other hand told me all about how he thinks 'a woman should be treated'. they were not the same thing.
I of course went with my mothers version because i may be a heartless killer as people say but i'm only like that to people who think they are better than me or think they can disrespect me and get away with it, but the only one i will ever treat with the respect and love my mother taught me i hope is Cameri. No i do not love her yet but she truly is the most beautiful, broken person i have ever met. but i will never take advantage of her naive-ness. if she would ever want a relationship with me (which i really hope she does) i would tell her all the things that would come with it.
It would be selfish if i didn't as she definitely has never had a real relationship before.
With Cameri i feel like i'm in a bubble and i never ever want anyone to pop it, because that bubble feels like its putting me through heaven and hell at the same time. the way she says my name put some very dirty things in my mind that i definitely should not be thinking of but i cant help it. she truly is the most beautiful person I've ever seen, inside and out. and I've seen a lot of pretty people.
They could never ever compare to her though. she is a different kind of charmer. she's is some sort of goddess or enchantress and whatever magic she is doing is working, not only on me but everybody she meets or comes in contact with.
But whoever is hurting her will get the beating they deserve either from her or me then i will kill them- him. i just need her to say herself that its him but we're not that close yet it will take a while before she fully trusts me and i can't wait for her to. this oen girl makes me feel all mushy and gooey inside and no matter how much i hate it i can't seem to stop it or control it and weirdly enough i don't know if i want it to stop.
"you good back there baby?" i ask since i haven't heard a word from her since we got on this bike.
"y-yeah" she stutters and i'm pretty sure- one hundred and ten percent sure its because of my new favourite nickname for her
"we're nearly there okay?" i mutter knowing she can still hear me
"the woods look so alluring from here" she mumbled placing her small helmet covered head on my shoulder, her face effectively stuffed in my neck.
"a bit like you huh, pretty girl" i comment and i can physically feel her cheeks heat up against my neck "pretty, alluring, prepossessing, gorgeous, ravishing, heavenly-" i carry on
"oh my- i-" she stutters over her words like her breath is caught in her throat.
i chuckle and grab the underside of one of her knees and wrap it around my waist pulling her closer to me. she made a little sound that sounded similar to a squeak, that made me chuckle again. a smile graces my face when i turn my head a little and see her blushing like furiously.
"awe baby, whats wrong?" i mock with a smile facing forward again as we pull up to a Forrest with trees that seem to go on forever when you look up.
"wow its beautiful" she says behind me. I let go of her leg before getting off the bike myself, i take off my helmet and pick her up and sitting her down sideways instead so i can take off her helmet.
I know she's capable of doing it herself but it brings me joy doing it, taking care of her.
"i can do it on my own Zuko" she mutters under her breath then crossing her arms over her chest.
"oh i know baby but i want to do it, makes me feel better knowing i'm taking care of you at least a little bit" respond undoing the strap.
"i am not a baby Zuko" she construed
"Trust me Amore i don't think of you as one....but you're one of my friends so i look after you okay?" but i don't think i want you to be just my friend is what i don't say as i loosen my jaw from it being clenched as i grit out the word 'friend' before i grab her chin after taking off her helmet making sure she looked me in the eyes while i told her this, making sure she knew what i was saying.
once i was finished she looked me in the eyes and smiled. damn that's making my heart do a weird jumpy thing, it's never done that before maybe i need to go to the doctor? i smiled down at her a kissed her forehead making her smile wider.
"that's so cute" she squealed poking my cheeks. right where i have dimples, oh she's a dimple kind of girl. i should've guessed.
"I think you're cuter" i say looking at her while she giggles and a cute tinge of pink pops up on her hollowed cheeks making me feel all mushy inside again. but she needs to eat more.
"Zuko can you promise me something?" she asks randomly while i'm looking at her. i nod and she continues "please don't leave me." That. Now that broke my cold black heart into a million pieces.
"Mi Amore, do you believe in pinky promises?" i questioned holding up my pinky
"of course i do silly. they're the only real promises " she muttered out in confusion
I lock my pinky with hers and look her in the eyes.
"i promise i will never leave you Cameri" i tell her saying to say her full name to make sure she knows i'm serious. now that i know some of her i want to know all of her and even now i don't think i'd be able to let her go even if i tried to.
"Good...thank you Zuko" she said. I could see the tears that lingered on her waterline, waiting to be freed from her beautiful eyes. i carefully brought my hands up to cup her face and run my thumbs gently under her eyes, wiping away her tears. I never want to see her cry and i'll do anything in my power to never let that happen.
