Until Death do us apart(Wattys 2015)

Chapter 8- A new Beginning

Damon and I sat Inside the Living room. We really needed to talk about these things, and we had all the time in the world for that. Something changed inside  of me. I had a shoulder to cry on and person that I could laugh with all day long. That person is Damon, and I can't denie my feelings for him. I don't know if I'm falling for him yet, I still barely know him and we had a lot of things to sort out.

" Grayson threatened me yesterday"I sighed" I found him at the hospital the other day, he said that if I don't come with him to the wedding, he will force me and hurt me" I squeaked trying to fight back the tears.

" What? Oh no that Grayson has gone too far. Too too far. If he ever shows up again and threatens you again. You call me. Got It?" He said looking concerned

"But... I just can't face him again. I almost cracked this morning if it weren't for Chase. I... I can't deal with him right now. And I guess, I'm scared. Scared that he will  bring my family into this and make me face my biggest fear" 

" Bianca, Look at me. I will not let that monster near you again.If you don't want to go to the wedding, you don't go and that is that. I will help whatever it takes, you can count on me" His words soothed me as he placed one hand on my knee.

"Thank you Damon... I don't know how to repay you..." 

"Easy, a little kiss on the lips wouldn't hurt anybody!" he said pointing at his lips

"Damon! god!" I laughed while throwing a pillow at him.

"Hey, you brought it up!" he said as he began tickling me.

"DAMON!" I screamed and was lauhging histerraclly now

"DAMON! STOP"  I said out of breath of laughing so hard

"Okay! Okay! I surrender! You're no fun!" he pouted

"Gosh, you really have some energy on you!" I said

"That's me baby" he smirked with one of his famous cocky grins I knew so well

"So... You're practically stuck living in this bungalow, You know I can help you if you want.I was thinking, maybe  we could pack some things you don't need and start a backyard sale." I said confident

"Why would I start a backyard sale? Do you think I have the time and patience? I like all the things that are in here. They are my most prized possesions"

"Come on! This place is a mess and needs a drastic cleaning up. Think about it, you could earn some money out of it and maybe even rent a new apartment. And we can talk all day while we do that" I tried to convince him.

"Fine. But don't make me regret this, I just think it's kind of sad that these people may treat my babies like if they were garbage" he smiled

" Damon! really? god, such a drama queen!"

"You said it, not me" he said as he started to pick some things up

1 Hour later....

"How about this Damon?" I said as I showed him one of his old albums of the Beatles

" Absolutely NOT! I would never give them up for just anything." He replied

I sighed. That behaviour had lasted for almost an hour. He really needed to stop it, it's driving me crazy!He needed to find an apartment soon so Meredith couldn't just show up at his front door to ruin his life all over again. Behind that Cocky grin and behind that black darkness of his past there's a Sad Damon. Just Sad.I can't even start describing what sadness is. It forces in to your throat choking you with crystal clear tears and scaring you. It scares you in a way that makes you suffer.Sadness tells you not to get out of bed and face the day.Sadness makes you hide happiness with tears. Sadness is cruel.

I searched for something else, maybe something crappy that's only worth 2 dollars. If that was going to be their only solution, they had to go with it. God, I just wanted Damon to have somewhere to live that wasn't a crappy Bungalow at an old campsite. I'm angry. Angry at the world for making good people suffer like Damon. Why do I feel so deeply about him? I don't know. Maybe I'm bit tired from moving around side to side for the last hour.

Suddenly I watched as Damon stopped dead in this tracks looking over a jewelery box. I saw how a tear slipped through his cheek.

"Damon? What's wrong?" I asked while rubbing his back soothingly.

" Oh, Nothing" he sniffed" This box just reminds me of my Mother."

" Are you homesick? Yeah that happens to me a lot too. Maybe you should go and visit her sometime"

"I already told you, before the shooting.She died of Lung Cancer. She's been dead for 12 years now and somehow this box gives me memories that I can't expalin."

I felt like the biggest idiot in the world right now. I mentally slapped myself on the face for not remembering. How stupid was I? Could I not see the cold grief in his eyes? Could I not be sensitive?

"I...I...I...I..." I tried to speak but I forgot how

"Shh It's okay, I wouldn't have remembered either" he assured as he carresed my cheek.

" W...What was she like?" I tried to ask

"She was the most beautiful mother in the world.Her lovely lips could only speak with kind words and was Always there when I needed her the most. She always wiped my tears when I cried, She always told me bedtime stories, She always asked how my day was and would never stop listening to what I had to say, She always cooked for me and made sure I never starved And Always tried to keep me safe no matter what. She was the only person I truly loved back then. She always understood me. Unlike my abusive father that hated me and only wanted the best for my brother. He always tried to hit me if I made a mistake, He always tried to starve me, He only talked about how good my brother was and how a dissapointment I was, And Heck even tried to stop my education once because according to him, I was a dumb heartless coward.And when she died,my whole world turned upside down. There was nobody to stop my father then, he tried to kill me once If it weren't for the cops" He was crying hard now.

"Damon, I am really truly sorry. You deserve nothing but the best because whatever your heartless Father said he was extremely wrong, on so many levels. You are a good and loving person that only deserves rainbows and flowers.You then are so much Alike your mother. You are one of the most respectful guys I have known in my whole life. Sure you have a dark past, Sure you have a cocky attitude sometimes but you have a beautiful heart.And your mother is probably looking after you in heaven and thinking about how proud she is of you and how you have become into a gentleman. So stop thinking about that cold past and think about the happy future because things will just get better from here."

Without a warning Damon's sweet nectar lips crushed into mine. And I let him. As the kiss deepened I tangled my hands into his dark raven hair leading the kiss further. So many emotions crashed at the same time. Colours were flying all over us and nothing could stop us. This was the first time  I truly felt protected from all the bad things happening out there not even Cancer could stop us.

I was the first one to break the kiss and I caressed his cheek lovingly.

"Damon, as much as I want to do this It's not right. Not now at least, Why don't we give it some more time and try to learn more about eachother. We don't know eachother so well so this might be the chance to a new beginning. We could even go to a date together"I said

"Sounds good to me" He smiled
