Love Of Pain And darkness

CHAPTER 13 ( ADMITING STRONG FEELINGS)

Samuel's pov

I woke up stretching my muscles and cracking my knuckles. Its 8:00 am and im off today. I like laura alot i guess you can call it love. Im not afraid to tell her about it ,but im afraid of the response.

What if she rejects me? Oh how i get lost in those beautiful green eyes. Yesterday when i saw her after work,i felt like i will just run to her and make her mine in no time,but i didnt,i didnt want to scare her.

Today im planning to spend time with her,and tell her certain things about myself,and of course tell her that i love her. I went in to the shower and quickly got dressed.

I combed my black silky hair on one side. I wore a black tuxedo and a navy blue shirt underneath. I mosturized my fair skin with some men lotion. My dark green eyes were standing out in this tuxedo.

One thing i noticed about lei that she has the same colour eyes as me,but slightly lighter,but it doesnt matter. Lei is mine and im hers. Nothing will touch her until im alive.

I went to the kitchen and my eyes went wide. Lei was there standing with a t shirt and shorts,her hair was neatly tied into a bun leaving some fluffly pieces of hair to fall on her face,her lips were dark pink and her eyes....oh god. Her eyes had a light shade of neutral make up mixed with a cat eyeliner making her eyes pop out. Only god knows how much i wanna hold her right now.

"Hi sam." She greeted with wide eyes.

"Oh hey lei you look absolutely wonderful today!" I said not blinking.

"You also look stunning today. I made breakfast for the two of us. Shall we begin?" She asked sweetly.

"Yeah why not.?" I said taking a seat while she sat on the opposite side.

Soon we began eating while lei and i stared at eachother.

When sam came to the kitchen, i was taken back. He looked dangerously handsome. I couldnt take my eyes off him but forced myself because i didnt want to embrass myself.

I think im starting to like him...alot. The way he supported me last night and gave me a crying shoulder,i can never repay him for that.

He made me smile when i thought i will never smile again,he helped me at my most weakest times,he comforted me when i was in pain,he gave me a roof when i was left homeless,he protected me like a friend,respected me like a mother and last of all loved me like a wife.

I wonder if he has any feelings for me. I guess no,maybe he just considers me as a best friend.

"Hm lei ,would wanna go for a walk in the woods with me?" I asked.

"Yeah that would be great! Lets go." She replied with excitement.

Soon we were walking through the woods. I was heading to a tree which i love most. It has a bench there where i usaully used to sit when i had no partner with me.

I twirled my fingers with lei's hand and placed both my hands on her waist to protect her. She was smiling at my reaction. I wonder if she knows that i love her.

We were soon sitting on the bench. It was beautiful and dreamy. It was surrounded by red and orange tree leaves and was occupied by the lovely singing of the birds.

My arm was around lei's shoulder and my fingers were twirled in her hands.

"Lei,would you mind telling me about yourself?" I asked breaking the silence.

"Sure. I was a medical collage student and a future chemist. I didnt really spent a life that you spend sam. I was not given the luxuries of life. I was a studier and also called a nerd. I had a crush on dylan who is the most popular in school. Almost every girl was after him,but he picked me. I got beating from my step mom just for dancing with him. My step mom married my dad for money. She decided to have me for materialistic purposes. She doesnt really love me,but overally protects me. I was not allowed to sleep over at my friends house,i was not allowed to atend excursions,i was not allowed to date and atend parties and was never allowed to do anything besides study. I got sick and tired of moms beating so i ran away from collage. I was starving and dehydrated when i spent my first night in the woods. Then the next day you came to the rescue. I was so thankfull that i found someone who would help me. You did so many favours for me,fed me,protected me and treated me as a guest. I never repay you sam. Thank you for everything. When i saw dylan with another girl in the resturant i was breaking down. I felt like i will never smile again,i wanted to go home and fall asleep before i would fall apart,but you came and gave me a shoulder to cry on,you comforted me by your motivational words. You told me that there are billions of other guys in the world,but from all those billions......i choose you. you are the one i love, the one i adore,the one i respect and the one that i look up to now. "

I felt my hands sweating. Did she just tell me that she loves me?

"I have the same feeling lei but a stronger one. I was just afraid of the response. The day i met you was an unforgetable day. You brought colour to my world. I really love you lei more than no words can explain. I seriously didnt expect  that from you." I said.

"Well now you have to accept it samuel miller." She said in a playful tone.

I sat on my knees and took out a box. I took her soft hands and placed the diamond ring on her finger. I was shocked with what i saw. Her ring finger was bruised! I know which demon did this.

"Lei,what happened to your finger?" I asked trying to hide my anger.

"My mom bashed it with a rolling pin. Its ok it will heal soon." She said not really worried.

***************

We were soon at home eating dinner. I love her food ,its totally delicious.

Im sure dylan gave up on looking for her. He doesnt know that lei will be someones wife soon. I wanna get married at first,so when dylan finds her he will be too late.

After dinner i placed a kiss on lei's forehead and hugged her. "So wifey,when would you like to be mine?" I asked hugging her tighter.

"Whenever my future hubby wants me to." She simply said shyly pulling away.

After our goodnights were said we went to our rooms. I called my parents and told them that i will be getting married next week. They agreed but made me promise to visit paris after our marriage.

No words can explain how happy i am today. "Goodnight lei." I whispered before drifting off to sleep.
