Chim- I'll teach you to love again

Chapter 25

Cheryl’s POV

I stand at my door and my jaw has hit the floor I cant not believe that this man is now standing on my doorstep

“what are you doing here?” I ask

“well I heard you moved down here and I wanted to see you” he says

“well I’m busy at the moment what did you really want Charlie ?” I ask again

“I heard your looking after Bella now I just want to see if she is okay” he says looking down at the floor

“what after 5 nearly six years you want to see how your daughter is doing NOW!” I slightly shout at the end

“chez what wrong babes?” Kimberley says coming around standing behind me and puts an arm around me waist and I start to feel more relaxed

“oh hello can we help you?” she says to Charlie

“Kimberley remember I was telling you about Bella’s dad that man would be the one standing in front of us!” I say

“oh” she says

“just tell me how she is Cheryl I just want to know she is safe” he says I let out a sarcastic laugh

“of course she is safe why do you think Nicola made me God mother to that girl you know I can look after her” I say

“I know I’m sorry just could you tell her about me maybe I could come back another day sorry I interrupted time with your girlfriend” he says and walks away I swear I could just punch him after what he has just said he just told Kim about me being gay I wanted to tell her!

“why did he call me your Girlfriend?” Kimberley asks still with her arm around me I close the door and go into the living room I sit down and Kimberley sits down next to me I look at her and she has a smile on her face

“well I was going to tell you before that idiot knocked on the door but I’m going to tell you now I’m …..well I’m gay I’m sorry I didn’t tell you before but I was scared you would feel uncomfortable around me and I don’t want you to feel like that around me, only me family knows about me sexuality” I say without a breath I breathe I deep and look at her she has a frown in place and a pout playing on her lips

“babes?” I say she looks up at me and smiles

“its okay babes I’m not gonna freak out or anything you are who you are I don’t think differently about you nor do I feel uncomfortable around you I guess I just didn’t expect you to be gay” she laughs a little at the end

“I’m so happy your okay with it ,I don’t like telling people because well just because…..” I say the words getting stuck in my throat

“just what babes you can tell me” she says placing a hand on my knee and giving it a squeeze

“well after Nicola died and started going to a grieving group thing and I met a girl there and we hit it right away as friends and a few weeks later I told her I was gay and she said that I was a freak started calling us names and things and it really made me feel like I couldn’t trust anyone….but with you its different I knew I could trust you when I first heard your voice” I smile at the end

“aww chez come here” she says and pulls me into her and hug her tight and take in her scent of raspberry and baby powder she rubs my back and says

“babes I would never say anything like that to you it doesn’t bother me that your into girls I couldn’t take else even if you was gay had pink hair and pierces everywhere”

“thank you babes I feel so much better now I have told you, you mean a lot to me Kimba I don’t think I would have been able to get past these months with out you” I say and I feel tears threating to run down my face I sniff and try to hold them back she pulls away from the embrace and looks at me she wipes the tear that falls down my face and kisses me on the cheek

“I mean I’ve never had many friends, but I never have had a friend like you when you smile I smile I laugh when you laugh and I cant help but want to talk to you 24/7 I don’t know what I would do without you babes and I mean It when I say your special because you are…” my rambling is stopped by Kimberley putting a finger to my lips she looks at me dead in the eye and I feel like I cant breath she has slight colour in her cheek and her eyes dart from my eyes to lips and my eyes do the same to her she leans forward and places a kiss on my forehead and I feel disappointed but she doesn’t stop at just kissing my head she kisses both my cheeks then she moves down and I feel her breath on my lips I can smell the mint toothpaste she uses and her perfume is filling my senses making my insides go all fluttery I bring a hand up to her cheek and cup it her hand goes to run through my hair I’m about to say something when I feel her lips on mine.

Her lips feel so good against mine they are full and plump I can taste her cherry lip gloss I open my mouth and she take the hint and our tongues start to move against each other moving and gliding she moves her hand to my neck and deepens the kiss we pull away when air becomes an issue , I look at her and see she has her eyes closed and she has a smile on her face she licks her lips and bites her bottom lip and opens her eyes and look at me

“wow, I mean I wasn’t expecting that” I say with a huge smile on my face

“I’ve been having these feeling for a while now but I didn’t know what they meant until I heard you say how you feel about me about how you think I’m special when really I think you’re the special one” she says blushing I fill my heart swell with a feeling I don’t recognize, she then pulls my head against hers and our forehead are touching she runs a finger down the side of me face and I stroke her hair we sit like that for about 5 minutes just staring at each other

“can I kiss you again?” she asks

“please” I say and then I feel her lips on mine again I feel like I’m addict to her taste like I cant stop craving that I need more. Kimberley breaks away and is still smiling just like me we stare at each other for a while until she says

“I think I’ve wanted to do that since I gave you my number I just didn’t realize” she grins our moment is interrupted by Kimberley’s phone bleeping

“oh its Nadine I didn’t realize the time I have to go back I will text you when I’m home and we will talk more tomorrow okay baby” she says

“okay, babes” I smile but I don’t want her to leave I’ve finally got what I wanted for months I don't want tonight to end , we get up and I walk her to the door

“bye beautiful” she smiles and places a quick kiss on my lips and heads down to the car park I close the door and run to the window I look out and see Kimberley walking to her car she turns round and looks up at my window she sees me and blows a kiss and winks I smile back at her and watch her get in her car and she drives off I bring  hand up to my lips where she had kissed me I can still feel her lips on mine and the taste of her I want more but I have to wait I go into Bella’s room and see she is asleep I go to my bedroom I catch my reflection and see the big goofy grin I’m wearing and I think back to our first kiss and I let out a squeal and I jump up and down on the spot I lay in bed knowing I wont sleep because I will keep repeating the kisses we shared.
