Prince Leonardo's' Virtues

Chapter 31

After staring into each others eyes searching for some kind of answers to determine our future I turned and walked over to the bed and sat down.

The time passed slowly and the atmosphere was thick. I was just sitting here feeling lost and broken and torn. I've been through so much with this man, can I just walk away from it all?

I looked over at him his head in his hands and I knew he was thinking of some way to fix this all.

After some time passed I grew tired of seeing him like that.

"Are you going to sit there all night?". I asked from the bed.

His head was still hung in his hands and I heard him sigh." If I come to bed I'm going to want to hold you in my arms and your hurt".

A warm feeling grew in my chest at his words.

"Leonardo would you stop with the sulking and just come to bed, your mood right now is depressing and it's making me angry".

His head shot up instantaneously." I'm making you angry?, why don't you stop holding back your emotions".

"Stop holding back my emotions Leonardo, really?, what would you rather me do scream and cry and have some major breakdown?".

"If it will help me know what your thinking then yes please".

"Why do you want to know what I'm thinking so bad?".

"Because I'm scared out of my mind you're going to leave me, isn't that obvious Julianna". He breathed out and for a second I thought he was about to cry.

I sighed." Did I give the impression that I'm leaving you?, I'm laying in your bed right now aren't I?, It's just too much to talk about right now I told you that over and over so would you just drop it and come to bed!".

He got up and took his shirt off revealing the bandages that were still on his chest." You're worried about me what about you, you almost died". I said to him.

"Maybe I should have died then all of this could have been avoided".

I felt my chest tightened, if he had died? What kind of world would that be..the thought alone scares me.

"Stop blaming yourself you lost your memory and he took advantage of that that's not your fault for god sake!". I shouted.

"Don't try to make me feel better about this, they were going to rape you and it took a piece of paper to get me to see what was right in front of me, that's just stupid, if I hadn't come at that moment-".

I cut him off." Stop it!, shut up I don't want to hear this, the memory alone is enough!, you're not going to do this to me!.

"But i-".

"No!, just stop!, where both scarred in some messed up way why do you insist on making me relive mines!" I said as I got off the bed and headed towards him.

"Do you want me to go?, just say the words and I'll walk away right now Leonardo!".

"No, please that's the last thing I want" his voice barely audible.

"Yes a small part of me regret a lot of things that's happened between us but I still love you, I STILL FREAKING LOVE YOU!". I shouted at him.

His eyes were wide as they pierced into mines." I'm not leaving you if that's what you're so worried about, I promise" my voice soft.

In one quick move he grasped my head and pulled me in for the most passionate fiery kiss ever.

His mouth claimed mines and every muscle inside of my clenched." Your mines and mines alone" he whispered against my lips. His tongue was inside my mouth and u pulled and sucked on it in the most tormenting way possible.
