Life of Leslie

5

"Get off me!" I shouted and tried to push him away. But he just pushed me against the door. He pushed me so hard I thought I'd break through the door any second. I felt his erection against my butt. He kissed me, trailing kisses down my neck and my ear. He had such a tight grip, it hurt. The more I tried to get loose, he tightened the grip and also his erection grew. Then suddenly he just let go. I was so shocked but I quickly spun around to fight him. I didn't have to, Harry was already at him.

"Don't you dare touch her. Don't you dare!" Harry screamed at him as he threw punches at him.

"Harry, let go. Please! He's not worth it." I said, tears streaming down. Harry listened to me immediately. He let go of his grip, told Travis to never come near me again and then he gently put his arm on my lower back to guide me away from him.

"Thank you for helping me, again.. I don't know what would've happened if you wouldn't have met up with me" I said, voice cracking.

He pulled me in for a hug. He just held me. Stroke my hair and comforted me.

"Leslie, listen. I haven't known you for long, but I care so much for you. You don't deserve any of these things! You don't deserve that disgusting creep to come at you! You're a beautiful woman who deserves the best. If meeting up with you is what will keep you safe, I will do it. Every day for the rest of my life. If you want me in my life I'm here for you, through whatever. I understand if you don't want me but I thought that at least I.."

"Harry! Don't say anything like that. I would love you to be a part of my life. You've helped me more than anyone else ever has. If anyone deserves better, it's you. But please, if you want ME, I'd be happy to." I said as I looked him deeply in the eyes with my hands on his shoulders, telling him the truth and probably exactly what he needed to hear because I could see how the eyes started to water. I just hugged him again for a while. We started our walk home.

As we stopped in front of my door, Harry hugged me and said;

"Thank you for the things you said earlier. I'll see you around?"

"Yeah.. Or maybe you'd like to come in for a while..?" I asked shyly, blushing because of what he might answer.

"I'd love that Leslie." He grinned the biggest of smiles I've ever seen.

We just spent the evening enjoying each others company. I popped some popcorn and we watched movies and played games. Then just talked. It was the best night in forever.

"Harry." I started, too scared to continue.

"Yes?"

"Do you want to stay the night? I understand if you don't want to but I don't want to be alone. It's kind of creepy of me to ask really and ..."

"Of course!"

"Really? Thank you."

"No worries, beautiful."

"You want something to drink? Coffee?"

"Yes, please. I can fix it though."

He made himself a cup of coffee and I did a cup of hot chocolate. As we waited for it to finish he stood beside me, both leaning on the counter.

"Don't you like coffee?" he laughed.

"Actually no hahah."

"And you work in a coffee shop. Adorable."

"You think I am adorable, huh?" I smirked at him. Putting the pressure on him instead.

"I do. Very adorable. You're beautiful, Leslie." he said, getting serious as he said it.

"Wow, thank you. I've never heard anyone genuinely think that.." I said and looked down at the floor.

"You got to be kidding me. You're the prettiest human being I've ever seen."

I looked up in his beautiful eyes and said;

"So are you, Harry." I leaned in slowly. And went on my tiptoes since he was so tall comparing with me.

"Thank you, princess." he mumbled as we were just inches apart. His hot breath fanning over me. I closed the distance and kissed him softly. He was so gentle. He pushed my hair behind my ears and gently held me by my cheeks. His lips fit so perfectly into mine. It was like a puzzle that now had been completed. He ended the kiss.

"So beautiful." He said as he looked as my eyes fluttered open.

As our drinks got done we walked in to the living room again and sat down on the couch.

"So.. I guess you're single?" I asked, just wanting to make sure.

"I am. I have been for almost 2 years now. And so are you?"

"Yes. Never had a serious relationship actually."

"Really? Wow, you must be picky. Guys must be throwing themselves at you."

"Hahah, absolutely not. But I guess I am rather picky. I just want someone respectful, loyal, kind, loving. A tall man with green eyes, brown curly hair and beautiful dimples is my favourite."

"Oh! Is that so? You know, I really have a thing for brunette girls with wavy hair and blue eyes. Specially the adorable ones who make terrible jokes." he smirked and started to lean in.

"You know.. I talked about you, Harry. I thought you did as well but then I realised it couldn't be me when you said that about terrible jokes." I laughed and leaned in as well. This time it was him kissing me. He licked my bottom lip gently for entrance, and I let him. As his tongue slid into my mouth I gave out a soft moan. We made out a little, nothing rough, just enjoying each other. Had never felt this connection with someone before.

He ended the kiss and pulled me over so I laid beside him with my head on his chest. He played with my hair as we continued to talk. Eventually we both fell asleep.
