Unrealistic Reality

Chapter 26: Unrealistic Reality

After Nate and Max brought us home, Charlie stayed to watch over me. He knew I couldn't be alone right now, and Jamie was out.

He needed some time with his friends, and I am glad he is getting back to his old life a little bit again. I couldn't stand seeing him so alone and broken, so I think this is a good thing for him.

"I am glad you are okay again Chloe. Do you need help with anything?" Charlie asked me while lowering himself next to me on the couch. I shook my head and let myself fall in his chest. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me a little closer.

I wasn't okay though, but with him by my side, I knew I was going to be alright.

"I only want you to stay with me." I whispered in his ear. He smiled a bit and pulled me closer. I put my hand on his heart and felt it was beating really fast.

"Why is your heart beating so fast?" I asked, while looking up to him.
He smiled down at me and pushed my hair out of my face. "It only happens when I am with you." I began to blush uncontrollably and looked away. I could hear him chuckle and smiled.

I didn't tell him my heart was beating as fast as his.

I constantly say I am not ready for a relationship, and that it isn't my priority, but what if I need it? What if I need someone to hold on to, to help me when I am sad?

What if that someone is Charlie?

I looked at his face as his eyes were fixated on the television. His brown hair was cute and messy, and the light shined in his brown eyes.

He was simply handsome.

I kept looking at him and when he sensed that, he turned his head to me and smiled. "Can't resist this handsome face?" he cockily said. I smiled a bit and pushed him a little. He didn't even budge.

I pushed him again, this time harder, and he successfully fell from the couch on the floor. I was laughing my ass off, but I didn't notice he had grabbed me around the waist and pulled me down with him. I let out a yelp as I landed on top of him, our faces super close.

I could feel his warm and hot breath on my face, and his cologne smelled simply amazing. It was nice to be together for once, only together. No interruptions or stupid gang people, just plain ole Chloe and Charlie.

He smiled up to me, and a cute dimple showed. I almost pinched his cheek, but I was afraid to ruin this beautiful moment.

"You are making me crazy Chloe. For years you've made me crazy, and I think I need the cure to my craziness right now." He whispered at me, and my cheeks heat up again.

He pulled up his head and we were only inches apart now. I looked in his beautiful light brown eyes and smiled a little. He looked at me and his eyes shifted to my lips. He let them linger there a bit before looking back in my eyes.

I lowered my head, almost closing all the space between us. Our noses were touching right now, and I couldn't wait to feel his full lips on mine. Suddenly, he stood up and pushed me off of him. He groaned while he stood up and offered me a hand.

"Chloe, I want to kiss you so bad, but not like this. Come, follow me upstairs." He took my hand and pulled me up. He rushed up the stairs, as if he was in a hurry to finally kiss me.

I didn't get what was wrong about kissing on the floor, but he seemed to have something else in mind. When we arrived in my room, he jumped on my bed and gestured me to come and lay next to him.

"Why did you stop?" I asked as I positioned myself next to him. He smiled a little and pulled me closer.
"Because I didn't want to stop once we already begun." He whispered and crashed his lips on mine.

I was shocked. Two guys kissed me in such a short time, but there was only one guy I wanted.

Charlie.

The shock faded quickly and I kissed him back. Our kiss was passionate and full of love. There wasn't a thing we didn't show. I grabbed a stack of his hair while he pulled me closer and deepened the kiss. His tong was exploring my mouth as if it was a big treasure, but the feeling of him kissing me was the best feeling I felt in a long time.

I finally felt loved again.

We were still kissing when he suddenly sat up and hovered over me. He pulled back a little and looked me in the eyes.

"I love you Chloe, and I held it in for too long. I know you have your doubts about love and relationships, but I love you. You are the most beautiful girl in the world, and I just have to make you mine. So, Chloe, will you be mine?" He searched my eyes for an answer, but he didn't get one.

I just pulled him towards me, and kissed him again. I think that answer is clear enough.

He smiled against my lips and sat his legs in between my thighs. I pulled him closer again, to kiss him better.

This feeling was something I never wanted to lose. He made me feel things I hadn't experienced yet. He made me fly through the sky and I didn't need to be afraid to fall, because he was there to catch me.
I knew he was never going to leave me, just because he loves me just as much as I love him. I know we took this step rather fast, but I needed him, and he needed me. We did everything together, so why not be together?
It was the best solution.

I smiled at him as he pulled back again.

"Stay with me forever Chloe. Say you'll be forever mine, no matter what happends." Charlie looked at me intently and electricity jolted up in my body as he touched me.

"I'll be yours. Forever Charlie. I love you, not matter what." He smiled and kissed me again.

"No matter what." He replied and kissed me until I couldn't remember my name.
