A week earlier

"So your saying I should move?" She looked confused

"Yes "

"Because I'm probably not safe?"

"Yes "

"Far away from Mira?"

"Yes"

"What about work?"

"That's been sorted out. You'll be working at a branch in paris"

"But I don't have enough time"

" Don't worry. All your things are ready. Just leave. Right now"

"No, I have to see Mira"

"You can't. Look, its better if I have less people to protect. I explained this to you cause I knew youd understand "

"But-"

"Please Tara. No one can get hurt because of me" I said and she kept quiet "Not again " I muttered.

"Fine! But I'll call her tomorrow. If I do today, she'll try to stop me"

"Fine by me"

****
The next day.

"What the fvck did you say to her?!" I said

"Nothing much, I just told her she couldn't come to see me cause I was gone already" tara explained, but that's not convincing enough.

"Well, she was crying in the car just now!"

"Wait, is Mira there?"

"No, she's in the restroom" I said and I saw Mira walking out looking sad and immediately followed her. "I'll call you back Tara"

****
Present day

I was busy working in my office and eating a cake when Mira waltzed in.
She's always coming in here.

"Hello" she said with a wide smile. I was about to take the last bite, when she snatched it from me.

"Wow, this is good cake" she said with a slightly full mouth " Now, I'm going to run. Bye" she said, and ran out causing me to laugh.

****
"Ahhhh" I heard her scream and felt terrified.

"Mira?!" She can't be hurt. She must not be hurt "Mira!"

She screamed again and it came from our room.
I entered and saw her on the bed. I felt relief course through me as I moved closer to her.

"Mira, what's wrong?" I could hear little sobs and her face was on the bed, hidden from me.

"I-I...my face. You can't look at me" she said as she continued crying.

"Why?"

"What was in that cake?"

"Uh...flour, butter...uh"

"We're nuts in it?"

"Yeah" I said, and she cried even louder "What?" I sat next to her.

" I'm allergic" oh "I look so ugly" she said as she continued sobbing.

"Mira lift your head" she didn't respond
"Mia, lift your head" I sad in a more serious tone and she lifted her head.
Her face was a little swollen and red but not that bad.

"Its bad isn't it. Yoyre not saying anything. Leo I-" i cut he off by kissing her.

I don't know why i did. Maybe because I was relieved she was ok or because I wanted to prove to her she was still beautiful. Maybe both.

I could kiss her forever.  I want to be with her forever. Shes amazing.

I broke the kiss and looked into her eyes.
"You're freaking beautiful okay?" She looked away an I turned her face back to me
"Mira, ok?" I said, and she nodded while smiling and I wiped her tears.

She kissed me lightly and hugged me.
"Thank you" she said

"For what?" I asked and she backed away to look at me.

"For making me feel special. I've never felt like that until I met you. So, thank you "

"No need to thank me" I said as I hugged her again.

I feel like itll be too soon to tell her I'm in love with her, so I'll just not say it.
I'll express it from now on.




I'm so exhausted. If I don't update in a while guys, know I'll be back.
I will so stay tuned, ok.
