Breaking Her Chains (Completed)

Chapter Fourteen

Bryten's Point of View:

"What  you want?" Kasey asked as she opened the door.

"Well good morning to you to." He said as he  kissed her cheek.

"I tired." she mumbled.

"I'm sorry. I came to take Tinsley to breakfast." he said as she let him into her apartment.

"I hungry." she agreed.

He laughed. Kasey had always been this way in the mornings. She wasn't much on words.

"How about you go back to bed and I will bring you back some food?".

"love you." she said as she padded back down the hall.

He  thanked God for her and Eva as he walked up to Tinsley's door. He  loved them so much. He knew they were grown women, but they would always be his baby sisters.

He  knocked on Tinsley's pink door and smiled when he heard her shuffling around.

She opened the door and Bryten  tried not to laugh. Her red hair was stuck up all over her head and it didn't help that she was wearing elmo pajamas. She looked so cute and cuddly.

"I thought you would like to get some breakfast with me." He said as she wiped her eyes.

She nodded.

"I will give you a few moments." he said as she shut her door. He guessed she wasn't that much of morning person either.

It took her about twenty minutes, but Bryten didn't mind. He loved the way she tried to perfect her appearance before she left, but to him she was already perfect. He loved the way her hair curled no matter how hard she tried to get it to lay flat. He love the way she giggled and the way she held the world in her deep green eyes. He loved her.

The thought hit him like a ton of bricks. He loved her? He loved her. He loved her!

His  first thought was to panic. I mean who wouldn't? He was in love with a woman he had known about two weeks. They  had only been on two dates and he had yet to kiss her, but just as he thought that a sense of calm washed over him.

"I know the plans I have you you." he recalled suddenly.

"Lord, is this your plan? For me to fall in love with Tinsley? It is Lord. I can't deny that. You sent her here and you planned out her path as well.... but Lord. It's only been a few weeks. How can I possibly tell her I love her without scaring her?" he asked God aloud.

"I think.... I think you just did." a timid voice came from behind him.

Bryten turned quickly to see Tinsley standing there as she played with her hands. A gentle blush spread up her chest and cheeks as she said. "I love you too."

Kegan's Point of View:

Kegan  looked up from the couch as he heard Bryten's door open. He hoped it was him bringing coffee. He needed coffee. He rolled of the couch and stretched. He was thankful Bryten had allowed him to stay here because he had yet to find a place to stay.... or let Tinsley know he was staying.

God had been dealing with Kegan's heart for the last few months about coming back to the states. He had known God  wanted him there, but he was in a binding contract with the company he was working with overseas. He had seven months left in his  contract and the only way it could be broken was if he had a family emergency or if he paid a large fine. He wasn't sure if Tinsley's... rape would be enough to get out of his contract, but Bryten had been kind enough to loan him the money last night when he asked him if he would be praying about it. Kegan couldn't believe he had been so kind, but he was extremely thankful to him and God.
