Destinee's POV

It's been two weeks since that night. I smile to myself as I run the brush through my matted hair. From the corner of my eye I can see Kells laying in bed. I can't be one hundred percent sure that he's asleep but he hasn't made a sound since I slipped out from underneath the covers.
Part of me (okay most of me) wants to climb back in bed and stay there forever but I know realistically I can't do that.
It's crazy how complicated things were between Kells and I and now I fear maybe we've only hit the eye of the storm. He's so unpredictable and that still frightens me.
Two weeks ago I gave him my everything but I'm still unsure if he feels the same. Although, things have indeed changed between the two of us. He now insists that I call him Colson like I did back when we first met. He's reasoning "We've become so close that hearing me say Kells throws him off."
I sigh as I gently place the brush on the side of the sink and lean against the door frame, staring at my (possibility) sleeping angel.

Colson's POV

I felt Destinee slip out from under the covers some time ago but I'm just to lost in my own thoughts to say anything. Instead I'm laying here with my eyes closed, listening as she moves about the room.
I can't believe I've slept over every night for two weeks. That's not like me at all. Destinee has definitely changed me, although I'm not sure how much. I fear in the long run it may not be enough.
I sigh and roll over slowly opening my eyes and pushing the ugly thoughts swirling around in my brain to the side.
"What are you doing?" I asked with a smile once I notice Destinee leaning against the door frame to the bathroom.
A light blush creeps into her cheeks....which I find immediately cute.
"I...well I...."
The more she tries to speak the more she stammers and blushes.
"What?" She asks once seeing the look on my face.
"You know you could always come over here and be cute rather than standing out of reach." I replied, wiggling my eyebrows mysteriously.
This causes her to giggle but none the less she slips back under the covers and I snake my arms around her, pulling her into my chest. I wish I could freeze this moment in time, being here like this with her is all I've ever wanted.

Destinee's POV

Being so close to Colson makes my heart race but I wouldn't have it any other way. Feeling him pull me close is like heaven. I honestly never thought we'd end up like this but unfortunately I still have the nagging feeling that in the end I may not be enough. His career has definitely taken off and girls are always all over him. I suppose it's something I'll have to exept and I'll have to put my trust in the man laying beside me.
Why can't it be more simple? " I thought to myself. However, to my dismay Colson seen the scowl across my face, let me go and propped himself up on one arm.
"What's wrong angel?" He asked softly as his fingertips brush my cheek.
"Just thinking." I said slowly as I bit my lip. I was hoping that would be enough to put this possible conversation to rest.
"About?"
His breath was now on my neck, distracting my worried thoughts.
"Colson."
"Yes love?" He asked sweetly, never moving.
I bit down on my lip once again, he knew this wasn't fair that I couldn't (okay maybe I could but why would I want to?) resist him when he was like this.
My body went weak as I felt his soft lips on my neck, my eyes fluttering closed. I was his and he knew that all to well. Colson was completely in control and to be honest I liked it that way, he knew what he was doing.

Afterwords

"Colson as we ever going to leave this bed?" I questioned with a smile as he ran his hands through my now tangled hair.
"Do you really want to?"
"No." I stated as I almost began to pout.
I sighed knowing I'd at least need to take a shower, not to mention get something to eat.
"Why don't you order some take out while I shower." I suggested as I slipped my now exposed body from under the warmth of the covers.
