Cold love {teacherxstudent, wlw}

Part 69

We get to our room, it's beautiful, floor to ceiling windows and you can see the Eiffel Tower from here.

My mood is still down a little though, it's so unfair but I can't help feeling like this.

Valentina noticed it too "Hey, everything okay?" she asks me giving me a small smile.

"Yes" I simply answer before putting down my belongings.

"Did I do something wrong?" she asks "I'm sorry if I did, I thought it was a good idea to ask you on the Eiffel Tower I just wanted to make it special, I'm sorry if I did it wrong" she says looking down, her voice uneven.

This breaks my heart "You didn't do anything wrong, just-" I start.

She looks at me "What is it?" she asks confused.

I take the ring out of my pocket and give it to her, I had the word 'I love you' engraved in it.

She takes it looking confused "I love you Valentina" I say, she looks inside the ring seeing the engravetion in it, her mouth parts.

"Danielle.." she start "No, let me finish" I say.

"I'm in love with you Valentina, so much that even I can't understand, and it drives me crazy- it drives me crazy not being able to tell you because I know you don't feel the same, it drove me insane for the past months that I couldn't say it" I say.

"You are so complicated, so maddening and so so addictive, I swear even when you are just near me I feel lucky because I can breath the same air as you, you make everything better, you make me feel so alive, you make me a human Valentina" I say.

"You may have been taught you can't love or you can't be loved, but that in your hand" I indicate to her hand "It proves you wrong, because you may not feel the same but while you have that ring it is proof that you deserve love because I sure as hell love you more than I ever loved anything or anyone" I say, stepping back.

"Look inside the ring I gave you" she says then, I look in to it the words 'I love you' engraved too.

I look at her confused "Oh my god Danielle" she says throwing her head back.

"You can't possibly say that after everything you think I don't feel the same, after the things I told you at the bar? After the necklace? Now after Paris?" she says, I'm still confused how-

"I love you Danielle" she says stepping closer "How could I not?" she asks laughing "I'm- I'm in love with you" she says "I've never been in love with anyone, so this scares me but not more than the thought that you were so sure I wouldn't feel the same-" she says.

"Valentina-" I start "No Danielle, I will finish this" she says before stepping back "You are everything, and I hate the fact you don't know that, and I hate the fact I didn't even know that a while back" she says.

"You know I have an IQ of 165 and I still couldn't figure it out, I couldn't figure out the fact what is it about you, or what is it with me, why do I feel like my stomach in warm every time I see you smile, why do I want to kill someone just because they look at you the wrong way or if they so obviously want you, I never cared, I never thought I would, but with you?" she asks stepping closer.

"I don't just care with you, it's so much more, there aren't any words I can describe it with, but the easiest is, if you are happy I'm happy, if you are miserable I am miserable, if you die I die" she says, I suck in a deep breath "You are it for me Danielle, my heart is in your hands and you can do anything with it and I will thank you for it just because you took even a little time of your time to do it" she whispers in my face.

"I-" I start but the only thing I can do is pull her into a bruising kiss, she grabs my waist and pulls me into her more.

Valentina nips on my bottom lip I part my mouth, she pulls on my bottom lip before her tongue finds mine "Say it again" she says, I smirk into the kiss.
