Crossing The Line

Chapter Seventy Two

Kelley's POV

"Kelley, someone's at the door!" Alex yells from upstairs. I let out a sigh as I set the magazine I was reading on the coffee table and make my way over to the door. I swing the door open and my eyes widen when I saw who was standing in front of me.

"Hey, Kelley." Morgan says as she sets her bags down on the ground. She lets out a sigh as she runs her hand through her long brown and blonde hair.

"Wh... what are you doing here?" I ask as I stutter with my words.

"I thought about what you said and-"

"Look Morgan... I don't know why you're here. I've been angry for a long time and I am just exhausted. I'm tired of fighting with you and I don't want to anymore, I'm tired of it. And I'm sorry."

I say as I start to close the door but Morgan lays a hand on the door to keep it open.

"I love you. And I can't imagine my life without you. You were right about what you said and I'm sorry it took so long to realize what we have between us. You came into my life and you never really left even if it felt like we were miles apart, you were always here. You mean a lot to me, Kelley and I love you with all of my heart and I know it took a long time for me to realize that you're the person I will always be in love with. I didn't know until now that I've always been thinking about you and there will never be enough words to tell you that you mean everything to me."

I stood there speechless. I couldn't say anything, I couldn't find my words.

"I was never done loving you. And even though you left, I was still loving you. I kept all the pictures and all the messages because our love is real. We were real. I promise you won't have to worry about feeling alone because I'll always be here for you, just like you've been always here for me." Morgan looked into my eyes for a long time.

"I love you." She said nervously.

"I'm not worth it, Morgan. You deserve better, you shouldn't love me."

"I'm in love with you Kelley O'Hara, I am."

"Don't."

"Well why not?" Morgan asked as she crossed her arms while looking at me.

"Because you deserve better, you deserve the world and I can't give you that. You shouldn't be here, you should have not left Chloe because she was good to you."

"Just shut up, Kelley. I love you and I am in love with you and I don't know how else to say it. I want to be with you and I didn't come all the way here because I felt bad, I came here because i love you and you love me."

"I don't want you to waste your time with me!" I say but Morgan just shakes her head. "I don't want to hurt you again like I did last time and I've been thinking about what you told me. I've broken your heart twice and I am not going to break it for the third time, I can't."

"You won't." Morgan says.

"How do you know that?"

"Because I trust you Kelley, when I thought that everyone left and turned their backs on me, you never left. You never did and I kept thinking you did because I was mad at you but you never left and I love you for that." Morgan says then it went silent between the two of us.

I honestly couldn't believe she came all the way from New York to tell me she wanted to be with me and to tell me that she was in love with me. It was like some weird messed up dream but only it wasn't a dream.

"So tell me you want me. Let me know that you need me. Show me that you want me and no one else." Morgan said, breaking the silence.

"I could kiss you right now." I say and I look up at Morgan and she smiled at me.

"Then why don't you." She says and I stare at her for a few seconds before I smile back at her. I grab her face and I kissed her and it was like a million sparks going through my entire body and I didn't think I would ever feel this feeling again.
