Our Forbidden Love: Forever and Always

~ Chapter Thirty-Three ~

Music - Vinterviken

They both make their way back to his house and make their way to his room to change as they are both planning to go swimming in his pool. "This honestly sounds like heaven" she says while wrapping her arms around his neck while his are around her waist. "Actually... you are my heaven" she says before he leans his and kisses her deeply, enjoying the taste and feeling of her lips on his. "same... you're my everything and you always will be" he says. "I don't know how you are able to make me feel so safe and happy just by letting me be in your arms" she says while he tightens his grip around her waist. "It's because you're my other half, Mads. My better half. I love you more than words can express" he says before kissing her again. "I know I say this every time but... how did I get so lucky?" she says and he smiles. "Fate. Fate brought us together" he says "anyways... I got you a present" he says and she rolls her eyes while they both sit on the end of his bed. "You gotta stop buying things for me" she says. "Madi, this isn't about me buying stuff for you anymore; it's about showing you how much you mean to me. Now, hold your hands out" he says as he places a box in her hands. "Now... open them".

Madi looks down into her hands and sees a charm in the shape of a formula 1 car and a charm in the shape of a football. "Mason bought you the football one.... He wants you to remember that no matter how horrible your parents are to you; he will always be on your side and will support you. And the formula 1 car... now, every time you look at your necklace... not only will you see your heart locket with us in it but you will also see the car and you will be reminded of me every time" he says as he reaches to the back of her neck and takes off her necklace so he can put the charms on and then puts her necklace back on. "Why is there another box there...?" she says and he smiles as he reaches into the bag and grabs the next box. He opens it for her and she sees a few charms to go on her Pandora bracelet. A Disney Minnie Mouse charm and a dangle heart with a diamond in it. "No.... Lan.... those charms are so expensive!!!!" she says and he smiles. "I don't care how expensive they are. You wanted these charms and I got them for you. You've loved Disney since you were little and you've always loved Minnie so I knew you would love that charm" he says as he takes her bracelet off her wrist and puts the charms on. "Lan... I don't even need to ask you how much it is because I know how much... that Disney one is £125 and the diamond one is £350!!! That's too much, Lan..." she says as he rolls his eyes before putting the bracelet back on her wrist. "Well, it's on your wrist now so you can't give it back" he says and she laughs. "You gotta stop buying me things" she says. "No" he says with a massive smile. "I love it..." she says with a tear of joy running down her face. Finally, he reaches into the bag and pulls out a bikini. "Is that the one I've been wanting for ages...?" she asks while not believing what is in front of her and he nods. "I love you so much" she says. "I'm definitely wearing this in the pool" she says before she starts getting changed. "Do you want me to turn around?" Lando says while trying to be a gentleman. "Lan. You have literally seen me naked 100 times before. I honestly don't care" she says and he smirks. "I'm so lucky to see you like that" he says as she changes. Once she puts it on, she looks in the mirror and immediately smiles. "I love it so much" she says. "I'm glad. Now, should we go down to the pool?" he says before reaching to find some shorts to change into and takes off his shirt. "God I love you like this" she says. "I know you do" he says with a wink.

Lando looks at her for a second before picking her up bridal style and running down the stairs with her which she immediately knows why he's doing that. "Lando!!!! Don't you dare drop me in the pool!!!! Lando!!!!!!" she yells before he drops her in the pool and jumps in after her. "You're a dick" she says and he laughs as he swims over to her. He looks at her for a second and grabs the hair tie from his wrist and turns her around so he can tie her hair up. "I will never forget... you hate your hair touching the back of your neck when it's wet" he says while pulling her closer to him. He holds her waist and she wraps her arms around his neck while they look at the sun setting. "You know what this feels like?" he asks. "What?" she says. "That one movie we watched.. Vinterviken" he says. "Yeah, it kinda does..." she says. They both stay in a comfortable silence for a bit as they take in the time they are spending together before Lando talks. "This is what we've been missing out on during this year..." he says. "I guess we've been so caught up in our exams that we haven't had a chance to spend any proper time together. Last time we did was when you won your first karting race in March and that was 4 months ago. I hate what that school has done to us. That's time we will never get back..." she says. "We can make up for that lost time now, baby" he says while kissing her cheek. "I don't even know what I'm gonna do with my life... I don't wanna get a job yet but I know that if I go to school then I'm not gonna be able to be with you all the time... You have your life planned already... you're looking to get into Formula 4 by next year. Mason has already been offered a spot on Chelsea U18s team but what have I got...? I don't know what to do..." she says with some tears in her eyes. "Hey, baby, don't worry about that right now. We will look at some stuff over the summer. Trust me, Mads. Your future is just as bright as mine and Mason's" he says. "Is it though? I don't see anything happening in my future besides being with you..." she says. "And being with me means that I will make all your dreams come true. I promise, we will have the best life in the world in a few years time" he says while holding her as close as possible. "Just promise me that you will stay with me every step of the way.." she says. "I promise, sweetheart. No matter where life takes us or what challenges we face, I'll always be by your side. Our love is stronger than any obstacle we might encounter. Now, let's enjoy this beautiful night together, okay?" he says. "Sometimes all I need is my soulmate by my side..." she says while looking into his ocean eyes.

"And that's exactly what you've got, baby. Us against the world" Lando says
"Our Forbidden Love... Against The World" Madi says
