An Unexpected Love

Dreams come true when you're with an angel

TEX'S POV~
I woke up quite uncomfortably when a shiver went up my spine. I sat up shuttering at the breeze and looked around to see I was still in the park, under the tree. I remember the dream I had as I slept, it was one of the most beautiful dreams I've had in a while.

~Dream~

I sat in a large white room filled with beautiful decorations and the lighting was wonderful as well. A man in a tux walked into the room and told me it was time to start. My mind was confused but my body started moving on it's own and I stood and walked to the door. I took a deep breath and gently opened the door to find an alter in front of me. Everyone I knew was there even my father and mother giving me warm and loving smiles. As I walked down the aisle, my eyes traveled up to meet Jake's as he stood holding his hand out to me. I grabbed it and stood in front of him with tears in my eyes

      "I love you Tex. I love you Tex. Tex tex tex TEX!!"

~Reality~
I snapped out of my day dream and looked up to whoever was calling my name. My vision was met by Angela herself.

      "Hey Tex, Why are you out here so early in the morning?" She asked and all the memories from last night came flooding back in my mind like a tsunami. I immediately teared up and looked into her eyes. Her features soften slightly and she pulls me in close and tight. I feel a rush of emotions and I let out all of my tears onto her shoulder and tell her the whole story.

      "A-and she said he was playing me the whole time! I know you won't believe me but it looked so real. T-the bad part is-is, I STILL LOVE HIM!" I sobbed loudly as I clenched tighter onto her leather jacket. She just patted my back comfortingly and guided me to her car.

Once we get to her house my cries and sobs lessened down to sniffles. She still had her hand on my shoulder rubbing soothingly as we entered the house. I took a seat on the couch as Angela went into the kitchen to grab a drink. I silently looked around her living room seeing all of photos of her and her boyfriend, Shane. I looked to my left and found a picture of her and Jake side-by-side together as kids. He was so cute then, I'm glad he turned into a nice handsome man. I ran my finger over his face multiple times until I felt a finger wipe under my eyes. I lifted my head and saw Angela with this sad look on her face. I couldn't help but start to sniffle sorrowfully.

      "Shh, shhh it's okay Tex. Look it might sound really biased but I know Jake would never cheat on you, especially with a hoe like Heather. I know for a fact he's in love with you. In fact everyday he texts me about what happens between you guys and I'm just at my limit now." She concludes with an irritated growl at the end that makes me giggle.

      "R-really? Are you for real?" I stuttered quietly. She nods and hands me her phone to show me the messages. I tenderly grab it and slid through their conversations and teared up more than ever, he loves me. I turn to Angela and hug her tightly thanking her for clearing my head.

      "Alright now that we have that out of the way, we can make crybaby feel less guilty." She says probably referring to Jake. She grabbed her phone and texted him, I'm guessing where I am. Angela told me to go get a shower and make myself look nice. I raced upstairs and hopped in the shower, getting ready for Jake's arrival.

JAKE'S POV~
I've been driving around town for hours looking for Tex. I've never felt more guilty than I do now. I can't find Tex anywhere, I'm hella tired, and I look like a stalker riding back and forth down the streets! I wish I never went to the party and just stay stayed home with him, maybe none of this would've happened. I pull up next to the park and lay my head in my hands.

              "DAMMIT HEATHER!" I scream as loud as I can with tears falling down my face. It's all that trick's fault that I can't find him. I slam my head on the steering wheel wanting my tears to go away. If I just tried harder to get her off of me we could've left that horrid place. I let them play me. I let them hurt Tex.

Suddenly I heard a chime from my phone go off. I quickly grabbed it and looked at the screen hoping it was Tex trying to contact me. To my dismay it was my sister but she was saying something about Tex being somewhere. The second I saw his name I drove to her address as fast as I could, basically disregarding all the red lights and speed limits before me to get to him. Soon enough I pulled up at Angela's house and ran to the front door. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door firmly.

The door opened and I was met with an angry-faced Angela. I whimpered, my tears threatening to spill over. Her face softens slightly and she brought me in for hug. I silently sniffle and hiccup into the crook of her neck squeezing her tighter. She lifted herself up to my ear as she hugged me tighter.

      "The story he told me better be the worst fucking misunderstanding ever conceived or so help me I'll make your life a living hell for making him cry." She said threateningly into my ear. I heart nearly tore in half when I learned he cried. I nodded and pulled away for her grasp. I turned to walk upstairs to find Tex but Angela lightly held my shirt hem.

      "Make him feel loved. He needs it." She said with a small smile. I nodded and began walking up the stairs slowly, talking deep breaths with each step. I eventually reached the room Tex was in. I could hear him pacing back and forth and mumbling to himself. I took in a large gulp of air and opened the door. 

There stood Tex in a white tank top and  what looks like my boxers once again. He looked right at me with wide eyes and his mouth agape in shock. I slowly walked towards him as he walked back away from me. He kept moving till he walked back and hit the edge of the bed and fell onto it. I stopped and dropped to my knees while still looking at him.

      "Tex, I'm so in love with you I can barely put it into words" I said quietly but enough for him to hear. I saw him gasp and sit up onto his elbows.

      "I've had dreams of being with you forever and more. I want to keep you with me and I want to protect you better than I have been. I want you to love me but I need you to trust me. Can you please love me again." I said this time letting the tears roll freely down my cheeks. He stood up and crouched down in front of me and lifted my chin.

I looked into his captivating bright green eyes that also looked slightly puffy from the crying and nearly got lost in them until he said something to me.

      "Do you really love me Jake?  And please don't lie to me." He asked staring straight into my eyes without blinking or faltering his gaze. I cupped his cheeks with my hands and pressed our foreheads together carefully before answering.

      "I love you more than anything in this whole wide world. Nothing could ever stop me from loving you and everything about you." I said to him sincerely still looking into the eyes I love so much. He nodded and stood up with his eyes closed.

      "Then I believe you." He said as he open his bright emeralds to look at me. I grinned and jumped up to swoop him up in my arms and hugged him lovingly.

      "I had the same dream as you had last night." Tex said blushing slightly. I was confused for a second until I realized what he was talking about and smirked.

      "How about we make it a reality?" I suggested slyly. Tex blushed profusely and hid his face in the crook of my neck as I grinned at his adorable flushed state. I pulled him off and lifted his chin and gave a small chaste kiss on his soft pink lips. He immediately melted into the kiss and hugged me closer. Before it got any hotter in the room Angela knocked on the door loudly.

      "I HOPE YOU GUYS AREN'T HAVING SEX ON MY BED!" She screamed loud enough for the whole neighborhood to hear. Tex gasped and blushed while falling off my lap, though I don't recall him getting there in the first place. I looked at the door then to Tex and grinned widely.

      "We'll try!" I yelled back and I heard a small 'ew' come from the other side of the door. I looked at Tex and pounced on him bringing him to the bed. He laughed out loud as I tickled him. I pulled him close to me and we cuddled with the warmth of our bodies. As we lay, our breathing calm, I can tell I want to be with Tex forever and no one's gonna stop me again from protecting him. I guess dreams do come true when you're with an angel.
