I feel that Bates and I have become closer now that he's opening up and sharing his past with me. Everything would be perfect if Madison wasn't making her way into our lives hoping to ruin what we have.

We ate our pizza and continued to drink our wine until we polished it off as I listened to Bates telling me how he regrets ever becoming a thing with Madison. To be honest, I loved every minute of it. I hate the bitch too, and I will gladly assist him going further with legal matters against her.

"I just wish you would've told me when it happened, Quinn. It would be much better to have a picture of the lipstick on the mirror as evidence instead of hear say."

"I know, I guess I freaked out and didn't want to be reminded of it." I replied.

"That's why I'm here, we will work through it together and I feel like I can conquer anything as long as I have you beside me. I just want to protect you, I love you, Quinn." He said without breaking eye contact. My heart melted as it started beating rapidly. Without hesitation, it came out so natural, "I love you too." He stood and walked around the table and sat beside me. I took his face in my hands and kissed him like it was our last time touching each other.

"It's been a long time since someone has told me that and meant it." I said after our kiss ended. "Well I mean what I say. You are so important to me and I never want to lose you." He responded as we faced each other with our fingers locked together.

"So tell me about your family, I would hope to meet your parents one day, or siblings." When he said that it made me realize that he knows nothing about me really, I was so caught up with him and his past that I didn't think to open up to him. I could just listen to him talk forever.

I smiled as I looked down at our interlocked fingers wondering where I should start. "My dad and I are really close although I don't see him as much as I would like but he practically raised me on his own after my mom took off. They divorced when I was eleven, my mom was in and out of our lives whenever she felt like it. I have an older brother, Travis. He lives in Louisiana with his wife and children. He's always been my best friend, especially when my mom would take off he protected me when my dad wasn't around or was at work. When he moved out I decided to take up photography and now here I am."

"Wow, you have a bit of a chaotic history too then. Do you talk to your mom now?" He asked.

"Whenever she decides to call but not often, maybe twice a year or so. When you and I first started talking, I had just came back from visiting with my brother, his family and my dad. We usually spend a week together every few months."

"I'd love to meet them one day." He said. "I'd love that too. I think you would get along with them really well." He pulled me onto his lap and kissed my cheek. "I'm so lucky to have someone as beautiful as you, Quinn. Words cannot express how much I adore you." I turned so that I was straddling him and connected my lips with his, I could still taste the sweetness from the wine as I opened my mouth slightly to deepen the kiss. His tongue danced with mine to their own rythem and then he gently bit my bottom lip.

I trailed kisses to his ear as I whispered, "I never want to lose you, Bates," then traveled lower to his neck. One of his hands rubbed up my back and the other he rested on my ass giving it a small squeeze. I sucked on his neck as I felt him begin to rise between my legs, it got me excited too so I started to rub against him back and forth. He grabbed the bottom of my shirt and lifted it over my head exposing my breasts to him. He ran his hands down sides of them lightly cupping them as his mouth latched on to my neck.
