forever to be mine

chapter 3

Walking around my kitchen seemed to come natural to Joel like he belonged here, i could picture us living here together sharing breakfast ironing his uniform for work- oh my god him in a uniform got my temperature rising again i could feel my cheeks flaming at the thought of ripping his shirt off and having him then and there on the breakfast bar to hell with the consequences i'm a big girl now i can handle what ever happens. oh who am i kidding as if a guy like him would ever see anything in me but a pitiful girl-damaged goods as my ex called me, maybe he's right why would any man want me. It's not like i was anything perfect, with shoulder length dark hair and green eyes sure i have a nice smile but thats really about it, my ass would just about take up two continents if i was lucky! that didn't stop him from looking though, more than once he glance across with a smile on his face.

Sitting at the table Joel poured himself a cup of tea- do you have any sugar?? he asked "your sweet enough with out sugar honey" i told myself, opening the bag i handed it to him his hand touched mine as he took the bag of sugar, my hand trembled at his touch. a sudden heat surged through my body at the thought of him so close to me, why cant he see what he's doing to me if my heart beats any faster its just gonna give up and die, where will i be then?? dead.

I wonder what is she thinking Joel thought to himself, my god she is beautiful there's no way she doesn't have a boyfriend, i wonder where is he? if she was mine i'd never let her out of my sight. Her smile is breath taking and every time she smiles at me i swear my heart skips a beat. She is delicate and graceful everything a lady should be yet she has a sadness in her eyes like she is hurting inside if i knew who hurt her i'd kill them with my bare hands just for thinking it. And with that thought Joel made up his mind Katelyn was going to be his no matter what he had to do, he would love and protect her in a way nobody else could. a bolt of lightening ran through his arm when he felt her touch- damn he thought if that's what happens when i touch her hand there will be fireworks when i kiss her if she ever lets me.

" So why did you move here??" he blurted out as if to break the silence, "It's a really long and sad story" -"well" he said softly " i don't mind hearing it if you don't mind telling it" as he flashed a smile at me i felt myself melt into my seat and i liked it!

As Katelyn recalled her story of betrayal and woe my chest filled with pain like someone had just shot a dagger through my heart how could someone hurt my girl like that he though. i slid my hand across the table to hold her hand in mine, she was trembling was that because of me i wondered. Feeling her soft delicate hand in mine, they were tiny but fit perfectly in mine as though they were made for each other. Fighting the urge to pull her into my arms and kiss her, i placed a gentle kiss on her hand " i swear nobody will hurt you like that again as long as i'm here and for as long as you want me i'l never leave you" that's what i wanted to say but fear stopped me." Your better off without him" i said " your too good for the likes of that, hey you know what would help?? the O' Connors at the other side of you are having a little party tonight just close friends and neighbours they do it every summer- will you come with me?? he said blushing "Yes" i said without hesitating "i'd love to go"  "great, then i'l call for you around 8?? " See you then i shrieked
