MIRACLE (✔️)

37: I love you

Chapter 37

-Gabriel Di Luca-

I didn't know what to expect when I dialed her number using Corbin's phone.

Corbin is talking with the French police to give them information about the plate number of the car where the love of my life was last seen. While they're taking the legal approach, I went with the most illegal approach I could think which, of course, involves my papa and the family's mafia. It's the most immediate action and I trust my family more than I trust my Miracle's shitty brothers'.

My papa and Uncle Gio are already tracking the plate number as soon as I called them ten minutes ago. My Uncle Gio is a tech genius, I know he can track the location of that plate number as soon as possible.

They didn't ask for much about where I had been or what happened to me for the last three weeks as soon as I told them that my Miracle's missing and I needed their help. I'm glad they didn't. My Miracle is more important than me at the moment.

So while waiting, I demanded to borrow that shithead's phone since I lost mine during the accident. And I really don't know what to expect, maybe I just wanted to hear her voice even if it's only through voicemail, I'll take it.

But I didn't expect to actually hear her heavenly voice.

Thank fucking God above!

"C-Cor----

"Miracle, baby?" My tears were quick to betray me as they fell out of my eyes like waterfalls upon hearing her voice for the first time again.

"G... G-Gabriel? I-Is that really you?" Her voice was shaking and I could instantly tell she was crying making my heart sink while hearing it. I don't like hearing her cry. I wish I could be there wherever she is to comfort her.

But God, I missed hearing her voice, her voice was the only thing I could remember when after the accident, it's the only thing that kept me going until I was finally able to remember her, her voice was my anchor.

I missed her so fucking much that it hurts.

I missed hearing her calling me by my name. Gaby. I need to hear her calling me that again.

Three weeks was too fucking long and I fucking hate myself for it. If I just hadn't stopped when I saw Chiara, if just hadn't let my guilt and conscience take over me that day then I would've been with my Miracle here in France this whole time, Corbin wouldn't have even dreamed of hurting her again, she wouldn't have ran away, and she would've been fucking safe here in my arms.

Fuck, this is all my fault.

"Yes, baby, it's me." I cried.

"I.... I-I thought you l-left me. I-I thought you didn't w-want me anymore."

Oh God. What have I done to my precious girl?

I couldn't control the pain in my heart anymore that I broke down and sobbed momentarily before I held myself together.

This is no time to breakdown when my girl needs me the most. Get a fucking hold of yourself, Gabriel.

"Only death could separate me from you, my baby, and maybe not even death could stop me from reaching for you." I took a deep breath and smiled through my tears as I added,

"I love you so much, Miracle Aurora Astor, you hear me? You're it for me and I love you. You have my heart and you will always have my heart, okay baby?"

This is not how I imagined the way I would confess to her my feelings, I was fucking planning for it at the right time and in the most perfect way. But right now I think she needs to hear how I feel for her and I badly need her to believe me. I will not have her thinking that I would just ever leave her behind like that anymore. I'd sooner die than do that. I know I don't fucking deserve such a beautiful angel, but I'd be eternally damned if I fucking let her go.
