My love, My loss, My love

Prologue

He looked at me with a love in his eyes like fire. I couldn't help but reach out and touch him. The second I grabbed his hand I felt the jolt of love that bonded us. It was true and I knew it.

Elijah and I walked side by side, hand in hand, into the woods at the edge of the acreage that surrounded his house. A smile formed and I looked up at him. He knew exactly what I was about to say but he played along like he didn't.

"Race ya" I said as I raised my eyebrow at him.

"Oh please, you are so not going to win." He teased back at me and slipped his hand out of mine.

"Wanna bet?" I said smiling as I reached up and grabbed the back of his neck and pulled my self up onto my tip toes to reach his face. I hovered my lips just in front of his and looked deep into his eyes. He looked back lovingly into mine and then leaned in.

It was then that I smiled and took off running. I could hear him groan and then laugh as he started running behind me. I ran as fast as I could zipping past trees and bushes trying to keep the ground I had gained by cheating. I knew he was faster than me but that didn't stop me from trying.

After a few minutes of sprinting I slowed and came to a stop at the edge of a cliff. I looked over and my glowing light brown eyes widened as I saw how far down it was. I took a few steps back. Just then I bumped into something behind me.

My heart stopped momentarily until I heard him chuckle breathlessly and bend down to kiss my neck. His lips brushed my skin and I smiled as my heart fluttered. I loved him truly.

He smiled and kissed the top of my head. I spun around and tugged at the edge of his shirt lifting it up. He smiled and gave me a sexy look. I giggled and pulled his shirt off. He trailed his fingers down my back and ripped my shirt off. I slid my skin tight shorts off and threw them to the ground.

He looked me over as I pealed my body away from his and put my clothes in a pile near a tree. I was ready. I gave him a daring look as I traced my feet along the edge of the cliff. I turned to look at him and smiled. Then I jumped.
