Loving The Enemy

41: The Truth

After Prom, we all got back into the limo, and it drove us home. Prom had been amazing. I was still buzzing about winning Prom queen. I wasn't even sure I had managed to do that, but hey whatever, I would take it. I hadn't gotten a chance to talk to Will, properly. I had wanted to stay in his arms all night.

The limo pulled up in front of my house, and I smiled at everyone. We all talked for a few more seconds, and then I bid them all goodbye. I got out of the limo, and then I heard someone get out behind me. I turned around to see Will following me. My eyes widened.

"What are you doing?" I asked.

"I need to talk to you." He replied casually.

"Okay." I shrugged.

I opened the front door with my key, and closed it and locked it behind us. I flipped on the lights, and I walked to my kitchen, and Will followed me. Aunt Harriet was out for the night, going out with Will's parents and Izzy's parents.

"Water?" I asked.

"Sure." He replied.

I got us both water, and handed him the glass. We both took a few sips and then set the glass down. We both were silent for a few seconds.

"So, what did you want to talk to me about?" I broke the silence.

Will sighed, looking nervous. "I've made a mistake."

I raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean?"

"I let you go." He then was quiet for a few seconds. "I let you go, even though I love you."

My eyes widened to golf balls, and I froze. His words struck me hard, and they finally sunk in. Will loved me. Will Herondale loved me. After all these months, I finally got the truth.

"I love you so freaking much, Tessa, that I don't even know what to do." Will confessed. "Ever since grade eight, I've loved you. I did that to you in grade nine, because I just felt so horrible about my parents, and thought that someone needed to feel as miserable as me. Horrible, I know. That's why I pushed you away in Mexico. You deserved way better than me. These past three months have been hell without you, and everyday I regretted letting you go and lying to you. You're my everything, Tessa, and you always will be. From the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you, completely."

Oh

My

God.

I was shocked. Completely blown away. He loved me all this time, and I had never seen it?

"I--I love you, too." I whispered. "So, so much."

Will froze, and after a few seconds spoke. "How? All I've done is hurt you."

"No, you haven't." I moved towards him so we were face to face. "You've made me feel so incredibly happy. You've taught me things about myself, that I wouldn't know without you. You showed me what love is, and I feel it for you, Will. I love you so much, that sometimes I can't even look at you."

Will's blue eyes were flooded with shock. He only stood there for a few seconds, letting what I had just said sink in. Then suddenly, he smashed his lips to mine. Heaven. That's what it felt like. There was no feeling compared to kissing Will, especially after all this time. He held my waist tightly, and I locked my arms around his neck. There were fireworks exploding inside of me, and my skin was on fire.

We stayed like for about thirty more seconds, and then Will had pushed me up against the wall, right up against me. He leaned down and kissed and bit my neck, and I moaned.

"I missed you so much." He mumbled against my neck.

"I missed you, too." I breathed.

Will came back up and kissed me again. After a few seconds we pulled away, and I grabbed his hand and practically dragged him to my room. I closed the door, locked it just in case, and then my lips were on his again. We fell back down onto my bed, Will on top of me, kissing me roughly. I pulled off his tuxedo jacket, and then unbuttoned his dress shirt, and tugged it off him. He unzipped my dress, and I pulled it off. I unzipped his pants, and he pulled them off. Will unclipped my bra, and slid down my underwear.

"You're so beautiful, Tessa." Will whispered against my lips.

I blushed, and he then kissed along my jawline, and then down to my neck, and then down to my upper chest where my hickey that had said "mine" had faded away. He started to do it again, and I moved my arms to pull his hair. Will pinned them down, smirking at he continued. I moaned loudly.

"You're mine forever, Tessa." Will said.

Once he finished, he then moved down, giving me hickey's all the way down my stomach. I then felt his tongue in my most sensitive spot, and I cried out his name.

"Oh my god, Will." I moaned loudly, pulling his hair.

When I was just about sent over the edge, he stopped and came back up and kissed me. I kissed him back, hard, aching for him in every way possible. I then pulled down his boxers. I heard the crack of foil, and then Will entered me. I cried out, digging my nails into his back. He swore, and buried his face into my neck, whispering how much he loved me over and over.

He started to move in and out of me, and I started to pant. Will moved his face from my neck, and looked down at me.

"Promise me you'll never leave me again." He breathed.

"I promise. I love you, I love you." I moaned.

Will went faster, and I gasped in pleasure. I felt the pressure start to build in my stomach.

"Ugh, I'm so close." I moaned loudly.

Will went even faster, and groaned. "I love you so fucking much."

His words sent me over the edge. I shouted his name loud enough for the neighbours to hear, and dug my nails into his back. A second later Will followed, groaning my name loudly, and collapsing on top of me. We both caught our breath, and then he rolled off me. I laid my head on his chest, and Will held me close.

"I love you." I yawned.

"I love you, too. So much." He whispered to me.

I only smiled, closed my eyes, and fell asleep.
