Chasing Forever: Jacob's Story

Finally.

 "Hey, angel." I say quietly, my eyes taking her in. She stares at me in shock, unmoving, her eyes wide and yet I still can't find a single flaw in her. "I missed you."

 Her blonde hair is longer, soaked from Nichola's dumping water onto her, and tied up in a ponytail. Her hazel eyes, still wider than normal, are still the same perfect shade I remembered in all of my dreams. Her lips are fuller, her cheeks thinner, and she's slightly taller than the last time I saw her but its actually her. It's my angel.

 After a second she blinks and then she's running toward me, throwing her arms around me and sobbing as she hugs me tighter than she ever has before. And I'm crying too. I'd envisioned this moment thousands of times the past two years but now that its happening I realize that no amount of preparing for it and wishing for it would've been able to prepare me for the tidal wave of love and longing that washes over me.

 "I love you." She whispers over and over into my shoulder, refusing to let go of me, even for a second. "God, I love you. I love you."

 "I love you too beautiful." I whisper, turning my head into her neck, breathing in her scent and feeling every muscle in my body relax when I do. "I missed you so much.."

 Suddenly she pulls away and in my surprise she's able to break my grip on her. She pushes me, hard. "Don't you ever  leave me for two years again." She say, her eyes fierce. "Never, Jacob. Do you hear me?"

 "Never." I promise her, trying not to smile.

 "Don't laugh." She says, pushing me again.

 "Ow." I grin.

 "It's not funny. Do you have any  idea how much I missed you?" She says and suddenly her eyes are full of tears and she's hugging me again. "I felt like I was dying.." 

 I kiss her neck, holding her tight against me. "I know angel.. I did too.."

 "Please.." She begs. "Please don't leave again.."

 I pull away, cupping her face and staring into her eyes. "Never angel."

 And then her lips are on mine and nothing else matters. A fire starts in me, one that burns hotter and faster than any of the others and I can't focus on anything but her and the feel of her lips against mine.

 I pick her up and she wraps her legs around my waist as I walk her to my bed, laying her down softly. I hear my door close faintly as Nichola gives us our space, but I don't focus on it. My focus is on her. My lips touch her neck and collar bone, my teethe softly grazing her skin and she moans, her hands pulling my hair more.

 I growl in pleasure and she moans at the sound, pushing me off and climbing on top of me. I close my eyes as she kisses my abs, trailing her tongue down them.
