It's Not That Easy.

Chapter 15

Melanie's POV

My arms were still wrapped around Justin and all of my emotions were running wild. "I missed you." I whispered as I closed my eyes in despair.

I felt his hands go up to the back of my head and he pulled away slightly just so he can kiss my forehead. Oh how much I miss those lips. I so badly wanted to grab him and attach our lips together.

He held his lips onto my forehead for a few seconds before pulling away. "I missed you too baby." He paused. "I'm sorry." He said as he pulled me into a hug again.

The tears started coming again but for a different reason. "Please don't leave me." I cried.

Justin pulled away and looked at me with regret and sadness. "I promise I won't." He stood up straight as he thought of something. "And to prove it to you." He paused and walked away, looking for something making me confused. He came back shortly with the divorce papers. "This?" He lifted it up in front of me. He walked in front of the trash and threw it right in, making me widen my eyes.

I covered my mouth as it slightly opened in shock. I was confused, speechless, but most of all, I was happy.. for once. "Justin." I said in disbelief.

He walked over and softly grabbed my hands. "I know I broke so many promises but I'm ready to change and prove myself to you that I love you so much Mel. You're my wife and I was so blinded by my career that I forgot what was really important. I love you baby. You and Alana. We'll be that family we've always wanted to be ever since we got married. I'm sorry it took so long for me to finally realize and open my eyes."

I simply stared at him. I honestly didn't know what to say. I wanted him back and I wasn't going to hold back. I wasn't going to be stubborn to him. For heaven's sake. He even threw away our divorce papers. He's apologizing to you Melanie! Say something! I snapped back into reality and saw that he had a pained expression now since I haven't said anything yet.

"Do you forgive me Mel? I understand if you don't. Heck, I treated you horribly and made you cry multiple times. I wouldn't even forgive myself." Justin started as he started to back away from me, shaking his head in disappointment in himself.

I quickly reacted and started walking towards him. "Justin, wait." I said softly, catching his attention. "Don't beat yourself up. I understand what type of pressure and stress you were put into. I just... I miss you Justin. I don't want to fight anymore. I don't want to spend the rest of my life knowing we aren't together. I love you.. so much it hurts." I gulped. "I don't want you to leave." My voice cracked.

I saw him smile. "And I won't." He pulled me into his arms. "Not this time baby. Not anytime soon. I'll stop loving you until my heart stops beating."

I looked up to him and smiled. I saw him occasionally look down at my lips and licking his. I bit my lip in anticipation. I slightly stood up on my toes so our lips were closer. Our lips didn't touch yet but we teased each other a bit to see who would make the first move. I couldn't help it anymore. This feeling he gave me was indescribable. "Just kiss me already." I whispered and immediately, Justin's soft lips were pressed against mine making my stomach flip. My body relaxed and I wrapped my arms around his neck, pulling him closer to me if that was even possible.

Justin's POV

Finally. This felt so right. In this moment, I had my perfect girl in my arms and had my lips against hers. I missed this feeling that she would give me and I thank god for leading me into the right direction and throwing away those damn divorce papers. I started to keep my mind off of those things as I started to lick Melanie's bottom lip. She parted her mouth making me slip my tongue in her mouth. I smiled while my lips were still against hers as I heard her quietly moan. It seems as if our tongues were in battle as our kiss got deeper and more passionate.
