No One Ever Comes Close To You

Chapter 27.

Chapter twenty-seven

I didn't turn around or say anything, I waited for Aston to do that part. His footsteps were halted and he couldn't have gotten much further than the kitchen door. I was biting my lip, praying that I wouldn't cry because I had no reason to. I was just hurt he hadn't told me.

"Amelia.." He whispered.

"What Ast?" I asked.

"Please don't leave me."

"I won't."

"I'm really sorry."

"I know you are."

I heard his footsteps moving again, getting closer to where I was standing. His hands rested on my shoulder and slowly ran down my arms. I knew he was standing right behind me because I could hear him breathing right next to my ear.

"It meant nothing, I was hurt about loosing you and needed something to take my mind off it." He whispered.

"So you go to my best friend?" I asked.

"I didn't plan to sleep with her, I didn't even plan to go over there..I was out and she invited me in for a chat."

"Although you ended up in her bed."

"Babe.." He sighed.

"I think I would've preferred you to sleep with some slag from a club."

"I can't express how sorry I am." I felt his warm lips on the skin on my shoulder, placing small kisses along it which almost made me forgive him and forget all about it.

"You were single to do what you wanted."

"But she was still your best friend."

I shrugged and looked down at the marble surface in front of me where my hands were resting.

"We agreed to forget about it, not to mention it again."

"You still could've told me."

"I didn't want to hurt you."

"I'm hurting more now than I would've if you had told me yourself." I whispered, feeling tears rolling down my cheeks again.

"I know you deserved to know but I had only just got you back and I didn't want to loose you again."

"You wouldn't have."

"You seem pretty upset to me."

"It's just the thought of you and her together, in that way..the way we are." I sobbed, bringing my hands up over my face.

"No baby, don't think of it like that." He said desperately as he turned me around so I was facing him and took my hands from my face although I just looked straight to the floor.

"It's different with us, she's just a friend and was there when I was trying to get over you. I love you so much and I feel something when I'm with you, it's special but with her it wasn't." He said, his voice begging me to forgive him. His hands came to my cheeks and lifted my head up to look at him, his thumbs wiping away my tears.

"Please baby." He begged.

"I don't know what to think Ast, it's hard." I sighed and closed my eyes.

"Marry me." He said making my heart almost stop from shock.

"What?" I just about said, my eyes quickly opening and staring straight into his own.

"Marry me." He repeated, my eyes searched for any kind of doubt or regret but there was none there. He was serious.

"Are you crazy?" I asked.

"Yeah, maybe a little bit," He laughed a little, "but I want to show you how serious I am about us, how serious I am about you..I want to be with you for the rest of my life Mils and this is the only want of showing you I meant it."

"Ast, you don't have to ask me to marry you to show all that."

"I know but I want this and I may have not planned it but it's the best thing I've ever said."

"I, er.." I stuttered, his face dropped.

"Do you not want to marry me?" He asked, sounding disappointed.

"It's just all this, all that's happened..I'm scared." I admitted.

"Don't be scared, none of its going to happen again..I'm in this for life, I won't mess up again."

"Yes." I whispered.

"Yes?" He asked, a slow grin appearing on his face.

"Yes Ast, I'll marry you." I said louder and more confident this time. He didn't say anything and just placed his lips onto mine, kissing me passionately. I kissed him back and felt more tears fall out of my eyes. I've never cried while kissing someone before.

"How are you crying while kissing?" Aston chuckled as he pulled away slightly.

"I don't know." I giggled quietly. He bit his lip.

"I love you." He told me, resting his forehead against my own.

"I love you too."

His hand slowly stroked my cheek and wiped away the remaining tears that were falling down my face, "No more crying today."

I nodded in agreement and kissed him again quickly.

"Lets go out for dinner, to celebrate." He grinned.

"Okay." I giggled at his cheesy grin. He slowly pulled away from me and took my hand, both of us heading upstairs to get ready. I couldn't believe what had just happened, this was crazy.

Short but sweet (hopefully) part.

Wonder if you saw that coming ;)
