Soul Mates.

CHAPTER SIXTEEN; TRYING TO SEDUCE US.

Jarred’s pov.

Lexi's fingers lingered on my jeans; I could feel her trying to undo them. I wanted her, every part of my body ached for her but I knew she wasn't ready. I knew she was only doing this for me and I wasn't going to let her.

She had almost undone my jeans; I grabbed her hands and pulled them above my head.

"Lexi, no." My voice came out in a grunt, it was hard to pull my lips off of hers but I had to.

"Why? I need to; I need you to forgive me." Why is she begging me I don't need to sleep with her to forgive her? Just seeing her smile is enough for me, I don't want anything else from her. Well that is a lie but not right now, I am willing to wait a life time for her.

"Alexis, you do not need to sleep with me for me to forgive you."

She raised her head and looked me in the eyes; I could see her searching for something. I knew what she would find in my eyes; lust. This hot make-out session has really affected my body; I knew it would be a bad idea to stay in the same room as her let alone the same bed.

"I can see you want it Jarred, so just take it." Her voice broke me out of my thoughts, yes I wanted her in every way imaginable but I wasn't about to take something she could never get back.

Lexi started to kiss me again, her lips felt perfect against mine, I knew what she was doing she was trying to distract me, it wasn't going to work.

I kissed her back for a little bit, don't get me wrong I was in love with kissing Lexi but that was all we are going to do for now.

"Alexis, I know you are not ready for this. I am not just going to 'take' it from you, I want it to be special and mean something to both of us."

"Jarred..."

"No that is the end of it. I am all for kissing you, I would kiss you all day every day but until I know you are one hundred percent ready, kissing is all we will do."

I could see tears forming in Lexi's eyes all over again; I don't think she was upset, at least I hope she wasn't upset.

"I'm sorry," with that she got off of me and ran to the bathroom, locking the door.

What just happened? I wanted Alexis, regardless of if we have an intimate relationship or not. She is the girl of my dreams.

I needed to make it up to her, somehow, someway.

I got off of the bed and walked over to the chair I had placed my shirt on last night, I could hear Alex and Caleb talking in the next room.

I was tempted to knock on the door, but when I raised my fist the talking stopped. Curious as to what they were doing I placed my ear on the door, I couldn't hear talking now but I could hear them kissing.

I sighed and walked downstairs, hearing that only made me feel even worse. I don't know what happened between me and Lexi, but I know it was my fault. I wish I could control my body, but on the other hand I love the way I react to Lexi. She is the only girl who I react to like that, she is my other half.

I was in the kitchen now, no one else was here. I could see a piece of yellow paper on the counter. I walked over to it, in a human pace; I haven't had the needed to use my vampire speed recently. The last time I used it was when I opened the door for Lexi, I don't think she knows what I am yet and I don't want to scare her.

I unfolded the piece of paper, it was a note from Lexi's parent but it was addressed to me,

'Jarred,

I know you and Caleb are going to want to spend as much time as possible with the girls.

Melisa and I trust you to drive them to school.
