The unexpected

Chapter 42

It's been an hour, and honnestly... I wrote shit in my homeworks. I just can't stop thinking about what happened earlier. So... When Blake was here -in England-, he did some bet with his friends... It disgusts me a lot, but I need to repeat myself that it's part of the past. Seriously, it's eleven in the morning, and I want to have a good day. It's my birthday! I put my work in my bags, and I get out of the room, and I'm going downstairs to see Blake. Her mother's in the kitchen, and she remarks that I'm looking for his son.

-He's on the third floor...

She looks empathic about what's happening. She probably knows the past of his son... Well, maybe she had to get him out of that, like getting Blake out of this country? I give her a smile, but it feels a little bit fake.

-Thank you.

I turn on myself to reach the stairs when I hear her voice.

-Lauren, Blake loves you...

I turn to face her, and I try to reassure her with a smile

-I love him too, Dorothée.

She now looks relieved. I do love him, it's true. She looks at me, but I turn on myself to go upstairs. I almost run to go to the third floor. There's four doors there, but I try the one to my right. When I open the door, it's a big room, and I see him on the balcony so I walk to him.

-Hey..., I say.

He turns to face me, and I see that he seems anxious.

-Lauren, let me explain...

He looks weak, and I hate to see him like that. Shit, I hate too many things today! I walk to him, and I take his head in my hands. He's so... Sexy. Even if he's not super happy right now, he's the beautifulest guy ever.

-Hey... Do you love me?, I ask.

-Yes.

-Was I a bet?

-No.

I try to smile at him the way I reassure people with it. Well, I think what I'm about to say.

-That's what's important to me baby. You don't need to explain anything, OK? I love you with all my heart.

He gives me his relieved smile, and he pulls his arms around me.

-I love you so much Lauren..., he says.

I give him a kiss, and I turn to get in the room.

-Come on! We have a birthday to celebrate! And I-

But as I'm walking to get out of the room, I feel his comforting arms around my waist taking me, and he turns me to face him. With a hand he takes my head to his lips, and with his body he pushes me to the door. It's sweet, lovely, and perfect, as always. He takes my head in his two hands, and he stops. He looks at me, and he says.

-I just can't believe how lucky I am.

On these words, I can't stop myself to smile. I press my lips to his, and I wouldn't bear to live without him. He's everything to me, and I now promise myself to fight for us everyday, and to make him happy everyday. I want him now, and forever. I don't know what's going to happen, but all I know is that I want him, and that we're worth it. That's all that matters. Him, and I.
