Forever yours

about us

*Kevin*

Noah had really won the race and could hardly have been prouder. I knew that he really liked Luisa and winning a race in front of her was the absolute highlight for him. After the race we had all gone to a really bad burger place and eaten there. It had felt a hell of a lot like family, and I had also felt the whole time that Luisa was just enjoying herself.

She had finally laughed again, she had talked as if that accident had never happened. And the longer I had watched her, the more certain I had become that I had to make her a Magnussen as soon as possible. She belonged in this family. She loved this family. And it was only tiny moments, but I kept getting the feeling that she felt like she belonged here much more than she did in her own family. I would never say it and keep that suspicion to myself, but she never seemed so detached when she saw her family.

We were on our way back to the hotel, because even though I liked having her with me, I had to bring her back sooner or later. Only Max had known that she had been with me. He had become something like my secret ally in the last days and weeks. We had never been the best of friends, but it had turned out that we got along quite well. Especially because he loved his cousin like a sister and respected me for loving her. With all my heart.

God I would do anything for that woman.

Over and over again.

Even now I held her hand tightly and would have loved not to let her go. I didn't want to let her go again.

"Kev?" she whispered as I was already on my way to turn into the street where her hotel was.

"What princess?"

"Can I... Would it be too much if I... Can I stay with you tonight?", I parked in front of the hotel and looked at her.

I wanted nothing more than to sleep next to her, but I wasn't sure if it was a good thing. It was still weird that she didn't remember anything, but I remembered everything. And even though I could see that her confession of love had been honest, I didn't know if I could just take her back to my hotel room like that. Basically, there would have been nothing wrong with it. We had loved each other for 11 years, but... Somehow I just felt like I was doing something wrong. Basically, she was just getting to know me again. It was a messed up situation.

"Princess, I don't know if that would be such a good thing," I said honestly, biting my lower lip.

"Please. I don't want to go back to them. I'm sure I love them, but... I feel much safer with you. Much... much different. You make it so much easier. Please. I just want to be with you.".

I took a deep breath. How could I say "no" right now?

But I shook my head "I'm sorry, but I'm not sure we're there yet again. It's all new again for you and..."

"Kev, I love you, please don't send me in there right now," tears welled up in her eyes "They just all want to talk at me all the time. It's way too much for me. Please, I can't do this."

I put my hand to her cheek and pulled her to me. Her forehead fell right against mine. I couldn't just send her in there when she was so messed up. I knew her family and they were all really nice, but they were also all big talkers. It hadn't escaped me before and I had no doubt that they meant well when they told her everything, but it so obviously overwhelmed her that it almost hurt me. She really couldn't take it anymore.

"Okay. I'll take you.", she breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you.", she whispered and kissed me softly "I don't know what I would do without you.".

"You never knew that.", I smirked and pressed another kiss to her mouth.

God how I loved this woman.

"Hey." she laughed, her fingers brushing from my beard into my hair, she lowered her forehead against mine again.
