A love like this part 2

I didn't know what to say. I was once again speechless by him.

I stare at him, taking in all of his features. They say once you've found the one your soul belongs to, their beauty compares to no other. Although they find flaws in their image, you don't see any.

My soul belongs to him. It's not a bad thing, it's dangerous because the things we can do to each other and for each other can change the outcome of a relationship.

But... When I look at Ella, all I see is what two people who were so madly in love with one another created.

"I take by your silence you don't want anything to do with me"

I blink and inhale sharply. My silence was far from those dark thoughts I can see brewing in his mind.

I take in his posture now that those words were said.

He looks defeated. A man who came with a purpose, now a man on the verge of doing anything he can to get what he wants.

"I'm just trying to take everything in, I'm a little overwhelmed Tyson" I say as I use a hand to rub my forehead "I've never stopped loving you, I couldn't stop, more like wouldn't and then I find out you had a tumor and a car accident after I made you walk out... It's a lot to take in"

He sighs, stands up and walks over to me taking the cup out of my other hand to then place my hand in his.

"If I have to take it slow with you then I will by taking you and Ella home and help you settle in"

Did I want to take it slow? Right now yes but deep down... Not really, I want to seize the moment and take back what was once mine in the most intimate of ways.

But let's be honest... I am scared of the thought of losing him.

"Is that an option? Because if you give me a little bit then that is more than enough for me" I try my hardest not to look in his eyes but his words make my heart flutter.

"Ok" I whisper

"Ok?" He says. I look up seeing him nod his head

"Our flight is in the next couple of days I'm done packing, the truck comes to pick up everything tomorrow to take to the freight, you are more than welcome to come around" He smiles and kisses my hand he was holding

"I would like that very much"

I was hesitant on letting him leave at first when I walk him to the door and decided to let him go as he kisses me on the cheek but once I shut the door, I quickly opened it knowing my heart and mind need him.

As if fate knew I would do this, there he is leaning over the railing with his head down. At the sound of my front door opening, he turns and quickly opens his arms to me as I jump into them and kiss him passionately like I have never kissed him before.

I was a starving woman for her man and he was a starving man for his woman. His kiss makes my entire body quiver with need.

He walks me to my bedroom that was the opposite door to Ella's and softly closes the door behind him. I walk backwards as he advances, taking off clothing bit by bit.

I can feel his gaze leave a trail of warmth and want over my body. A hand reaches out to pull him close and my other roams down his back.

He groans under my touch and hardens at the feel of my bare skin pressed against his. The sense of control I has is gone as he pushes me gently to fall back onto the bed.

His kisses leave a trail of heat from my toes to my neck and everything I've withheld because of him is unleashed.

When he is finally inside of me, I can't help the gasp that escapes my lips. He kisses my eyes as they close and I relish in the feeling of our love making.

Tyson

I didn't tell her straight away that I knew everything about her and Ella 3 years after the incident. I was too ashamed as well as getting my affairs in order.

It wasn't until we were back in our home town, I took her out for dinner and explained everything to her, handing over bank accounts I made for Ella, the trust fund I have ready for Ella when she turns 21.

She cried not because of the money but the fact that I lied to her about knowing about them for a whole year and I never came for her.

The entire time we were together I never mentioned what I did for a living, I always surprised her at her work place and she never asked for anything.

What made me fall in love with her even more after meeting her was the fact that she was able to take care of herself and wanted to take care of me too.

When I met her, she was the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. She didn't wear much make up that night, I remember her saying she only put mascara and did her eyebrows. I swear my cousin was in a rage at her appearance that night but Olivia didn't care and I loved that about her.

Olivia is naturally beautiful and with make up she is drop dead gorgeous. She loves me and my family without the money.

I learned she made more than enough for her and Ella to live comfortably but I wanted to be prepared for if I got sick again.

Now ten years later, Ella is a big daddy's girl as well as my son Vincent a real mama's boy. I'm just glad I went after them at all otherwise we wouldn't be where we are.
