Too good to be true?? {Romen Reigns love story}

Trust

  We're now going to get some ice cream. I feel like a teenager again. Its crazy how this man can bring back feelings I haven't in a really long time. After Ari was born and I left her father, I could never bring myself to go on dates or see other people. I've put so many walls and this man, this beautiful man, is breaking them one by one. And all so quickly. What is it about him? What is it?

  “LETTY!" I hear a familiar husky voice shout.

  “Yes? What? Sorry," I say snapping out of my thoughts.

  “Are you okay?"

  “Yes. Sorry. I zoned out there." He smiles his beautiful full toothed smile.

  “Okay, well we're here," he says getting out of the car and hurrying to my side and opening the door for me.

  “Thank you,"

  “Anything for a beautiful woman like you." I grin and take his hand as we walk to the shop.

  His hand is much larger than mine, yet it feels right. It feels like my hand was molded to fit his.

  We walk in and I instantly think how much Jacob and Ariana would've loved to come. I could just see Ari with ice cream all over her face and Jacob trying to act manly. A huge smile spreads across my face and I look up to s Joe looking down at me. We spend the moment staring into each others eyes, no we spend the moment looking through each others eyes. To each others souls. But it was cut off by the short, thin, light haired girl behind the counter.

  “Hi, how can I help you guys?" she asks.

  “Oh, um... What do you want Letty?"

  “Can I have a scoop of cookie dough in a cone?" I smile asking the girl.

  “Make that two," Joe adds. The girl grabs the cones and starts scooping the ice cream. I look to Joe and say:

  “When I was pregnant with Jacob, this all I wanted. This and hash browns with syrup," I admit.

  Joe laughs and says “Hash browns with syrup?... interesting"

  “I was pregnant," I start, laughing “plus its not that bad. My kids eat it all the time," wait is it too early to talk about them...???

  “Here you guys go!" the girl chirps handing us our ice cream.

  We both say thank you as we walk out the shop and start walking.

  “So how old are your kids?" Joe asks softly, he seems kinda weird.

  “Jacob is eight and Ariana is three," I answer smiling.

  There was a lot of silence as we walked and ate our ice cream. About 10 minutes later he asks:

  “And if you don't mind me asking, what happened to their father...?" My smile instantly drops. I take a deep breath.

  “Fathers," I correct him. “Jacob's dad was a guy I had been with for a while, and we were planning a future together, but when I got pregnant with Jacob... I guess he got cold feet because he left us..." I now breathing heavily. I could feel my eyes getting glassy. “After I had met a guy who had also had a son, he treated Jacob like he was his. I soon after got pregnant with Ariana and... and... I found out he was cheating on me. After Ariana was born I moved from San Diego up here..." I could feel the tears streaming down my face. 

  “I'm so sorry." by now we've stopped walking. He turns my body to face him. I keep my eyes glued to the floor. I feel my chin being lifted. Joe is looking straight into my eyes. He wipes my tears and says “No one deserves that. No one. Those guys don't have a clue about what they were doing. But look now, you've gone through all that, and now you're here with me. I wont ever hurt you." He says grinning.
