The time flew. 2 years flew by. Connor didn't hear of ___ for 2 years. 2 years in which he suffered a lot without her by his side. He would always cry himself silently until he would fall into a sleep full of nightmares. Always. He looked like a mess. Always depressed. His eyes lost that beautiful shine of them. Now they look empty. His eyes would have huge bags under them. He transformed since ___ left. He never tought that this could happen to him from someone leaving. But ___ was too important for him. He would always wonder how she lives right now.
___ was living in the frosts of the forests. In 2 years she couldn't forget about the one that saved her. Connor. Her life was shit. She would always cry her heart out until she would fall into a deep slumber. Her skin lost the gentle pink tone to it. It was pale, just like snow. Her brown hues lost their shine that would give you hope. Her hair lost his shining beautiful healthy color it had. She was looking like "I am tired of this."
Both of their lives were incomplete without each other.
*Present*
Connor was sent in a mission in the Appalachian mountains. His objective was to kill a woman that was there. She would often kill the hunters that would go there to hunt. Innocent people. Connor tought.
He went deeper into the forest until he saw that woman. It had a fur over her shoulders to keep her warm trough he winter. She ran with such speed. He saw something really familiar. That robe...No...Only she would wear that color. It was impossible. It was only an illusion.
Connor tought he went crazy. That woman stopped suddenly and looked him straight in the face from under her hood. She was shocked. He was shocked. They were shocked.
"___...I-Impossible..." Connor said in a shaky voice. Tears were willing to escape from his brown hues. His heartbeat was faster than a rabbit's. He missed her. He needed her. Hurt was swimming trough his blood. Pain, anger, lust, love. All those emotions were raging trough his veins.
"It's just an illusion...Just an illusion." ___ broke into tears desperately wanting to think it was an illusion. "___ stop this!" Connor desperately yelled with a shaky voice. He needed her more than anything but he could not stop to yell at her. She left him all alone. "You....You left! Right when I needed you the most!" He yelled at her with all his voice. He gave in a shaky breath. ___ didn't dare to look into his eyes. She lowered her head. She was guilty. "Connor...I-" ___ tried to say in a shaky voice. Tears escaped her eyes. "YOU HURT ME! I NEEDED YOU THE MOST AND YOU LEFT!" Connor started to sob and breathe shakily. He felt that his legs couldn't hold him anymore. His knees almost left him until ___ ran to him as fast as she could and jumped on him into an embrace full of love. "I am sorry. I am so sorry. Please forgive me. I was selfish. Please. Don't leave me." She blurted out and whispered sweet nothings into his ear. Connor hugged her with all his strength. This embrace was not just a simple embrace. It showed that they truly love each other. "___...I need you please don't let me alone ever again." He hid his face in the crook of her neck breathing desperately her scent. Her unique scent. He missed everything about her. He was pleading over and over to never leave him alone. He couldn't live without her. "Shh Connor. I am here. I am here." ___ reasured him. She would never ever leave her love like this. He was an emotional mess and a depressed mess without her.
After they were calm. Their breathes weren't shaky anymore. Their heart beats weren't raging in them like wanting to break their rib cages. They just stared into each other's eyes. Their hues were showing such love towards each other. "Connor...It's my fault you and I are like this...I am sorry but I-" She tried to finish her sentence but was interrupted by Connor smashing his lips on hers. ___ tensed. She relaxed into that kiss. She fell deep in that kiss. The kiss was meaning only lust and love. The warmth it gave was full of adoration. It was screaming "Don't leave me. I need you!" They deepened the kiss. They were perfect for each other.
They finally broke being only panting messes. The blood in their veins was raging again. They both look deep into their brown hues. "I missed you." They both said in the same time. They smiled widely. ___ kissed his nose lovingly.
Connor rested his chin on her head while they were just staying embraced in that beautiful silence accompanied by the wind that would blow past them. Rivers could be heard far away from them. They stayed under a pine tree embracing lovingly each other. Connor kissed the top of her head and forehead lovingly.
"How is the life at homestead now...?" ___ broke the silence. "Achilles is good. He wants you back. Even if two years have passed he misses you more than anything. Will you come back with me?" Connor asked looking into your eyes. ___ stayed silent for a bit. "...Yes." ___ hesitated a bit. Connor was sparkling with happines. His eyes were expressing such love towards her. They had that beautiful shine back. His skin was that warm chocolate it had two years ago when she left. He kissed her all over her face. ___ was giggling. She was happy to finally see Connor this happy. And towards her. "In all these years I wasn't this happy. In these two years the summer wasn't warm anymore. Not loving anymore. The winters were even colder than they actually were without you. Everything seemed lifeless without you ___." Connor said shyly. "I promise that you won't ever feel alone Connor, not anymore. Summer will be warm again. I promise you" ___ said looking into his eyes that were anxious. They were filled with anxiety. Connor wasn't really sure if she would stay with him. "Connor. I can see you are anxious. But I promise you that I can't stay away from you. Not anymore." ___ then kissed his lips again.
*They came back at the Homestead*
___ slowly opened the door. She looked desperately for Achilles until she spotted the old man. "Achilles..." ___ said happily and sprinted to him. Achilles raised his cane in a motion to stop. ___ followed his order confuzzed and watery eyes. "Achilles...I-" Achilles cut her off with the raise of a hand "How dare you come back after you left us all alone? You know how much you meant to us and you left us in hard times. How dare you come back?!" Achilles said yelling. ___ was shocked. She didn't know what to do. Eyes wide like plates and tears escaping her eyes. "Achilles..." ___ broke into sobs. Achilles sighed and gave a smirk. "Welcome home,___." ___ looked at him and smiled widely hugging him to death. Achilles patted her softly on the back. "You are hugging me to death ___." ___ immediately realised it. "Sorry." ___ smiled widely being home again. "Now...You need punishment for leaving us like this for 2 years, don't you?" Achilles asked with a mischievous smirk. He took his cane and it made contact with ___'s head. "Ouch Achilles!" She was happy but that hurt. She held her hands close to her head. She loved being at home again after years. It didn't changed a lot. It just lost its shine without ___ being around and it left a hole in both of their hearts. Connor was smiling at both of them. They were happy and that hole in their hearts have been filled again by their dearest ___. "I missed everything about this house. Everything. I missed you and Connor more than anything. I was reckless for leaving and the reason was stupid too but I just couldn't handle it. Please excuse my stupidity." ___ looked down ashamed at the floor. Connor came and hugged her. His chest pressed against her back. He hugged her tight. ___'s heart was raging against her rib cage. Her boiling blood was rushing in her veins and a blush crept over her already soft rosy cheeks. She looked like a beautiful rose. Dangerous but beautiful, gentle, gracious.
Connor purred into her hear "You are half excused dearest ___." ___ felt even more embarassed. Achilles half - hearted smiled. "So you two are finally together? God bless you children. But I don't want tiny versions of you running in the homestead right now." At this they both had plates instead of eyes and they were blushing so hardly. Aveline actually decided that that was the best moment to make her appearence. "And what do you exactly mean by this dear Achilles?" She glared at both of them and hands on her hips. Her hair was long. She changed.
"Oh hello Aveline, look who came back. Aren't you happy?" Achilles said with a smug smile on his face. "Connor? Why is she back?" Aveline said glaring at ___. She was boiling with rage. How dare she come back and steal Connor. Connor moved from behind ___ and his back was now facing ___'s face. "Oh hello Aveline." Connor said with a glare and not impressed at all. "You like it or not she is staying and I am over with you. I am over with all your over reactions, dramas and making a fuss all the time. I am tired of you talking about yourself and not even caring that I would've often cry myself till I would fall asleep. I actually realised you wanted me only for my looks but I decided not to break it with you because I didn't want to hurt you but here I am. Protecting ___ from you. I know you've been insulting ___ two years ago from some time now but I tried not care but you are on my nerves and I want you out of this house right now!" Aveline didn't believe her ears. How dare he?! "How dare you throw me out of the house you mongrel?! Achilles?!" Oh ___ finally broke. She clenched her fists tight. She was raging. Boiling blood was going trough her veins. Oh she was done now with that bitch. "Say that again and I swear...I will kill you with my own hands" She said trough tight clenched teeth. Aveline huffed. "I can call him whatever I please." Oh ___ she was done with Aveline.
She took her by the collar as Aveline struggled in her grasp and threw her out of the house. "A dog should stay outside, understood?" Aveline didn't know what to say. She just stayed there. "There. Job done." ___ was pleased with what she had done and had a smirk on her face.
Connor was astonished by ___. She truly was a beautiful dangerous gentle rose. He went to her and picked her up bridal style. "C-Connor! Put me down right now." "You are amazing. I feel sorry for Aveline and I am the luckiest man alive to have you ___." Connor said with such happiness it made her heart flutter. ___ kissed his cheek lovingly. "And I am lucky to have such a loving lover." ___ giggled. Connor smooched her all over her face. ___ broke into a fit of giggles. "Children these days..." Achilles said and sighed. With that he went to read a book at the fire place finally happy to have ___ back. He smiled. He would see the day when there would be children playing around. It would be really beautiful.
They were finally at peace. ___ was back and the homestead was happier than ever with her. She truly was an angel. A dangerous one if I may say.
