Love Blossoms

Chapter 11

I turned around to see this tall strong man have his arms around my waist. I tried to get out of his grasp but he was too strong. I turned to look for Helia. I saw him coming to me with two drinks. He did not look pleased at all.

You could see the look in his eyes and he was angry. It made me scared for the guy. He came over and said,

"You better take your hands off of my wife before I make you."

You could tell that he was trying stay calm. Helia was taller than the guy. He grabbed his wrist and through it off of me. He pulled me behind him hard. I was becoming scared of Helia right now. I have never seen this side of him. It was different and I did not know what to do.

"Let's get out of here." I whispered to Helia trying to pull him away from the dance floor.

I finally convinced him to leave before the situation got worse. There was already a crowd forming. We got to the lobby and I turned to him and looking into his eyes. You could see the anger in them. I walked away from him and went outside. I wanted to give him some time to cool down. I shivered as I sat on the bench.

"I'm sorry you had to see that." Helia said in a whisper.

I look up to him and he sat down next to me. I did not know what to say. This was something I did not know. I am a peaceful person and calm. This is someone I did not like to be around and I did not realize that Helia had a side like that.

"I don't know if I can be with some one that has a side like that. That is your ugly side Helia." I shared with him.

*Helia's POV*

I hung my head in shame. I was discussed with myself. I was not that kind of guy. I don't even know what he came from. I am a peaceful guy that does not lead to anger or violence. I wanted to be the man that Flora wants me to be.

"I am so sorry flower. I don't know where that came from. I am very peaceful man. I never wanted to use violence. I am not that kind of person. I don't want you to think of me like that. I want to be the protective gentle hero that you need." I explained taking her into my arms.

She was shivering. It was cold outside and I wanted to keep her warm. Flora leaned in and said,

"I was just surprised at your actions with that guy but I know that you would never hurt a fly."

I smiled at her and gave her a kiss. We sat there for a little bit longer in the cold. After the cold got to us and Flora was shivering all through her body that I could feel it, we went inside. We headed up to bed and Flora cuddled up to me and whispered,

"You are my gentle protective hero and there is no one else I would want to be there saving me."

I gave her a kiss on the forehead and she fell asleep in my arms. I listened to her breathing and finally drifted off to sleep as well. This was something that challenged our relationship and I am so glad that Flora did not run and scared. She is so understanding and warm hearted. I am such a lucky man.
