Torn love

SAVANNAH'S P.O.V

Holy shit he looks good, soooo good.

My breathing and heart sped up at the sight of him. My palms are sweaty. The boy who broke my heart six years ago, now stands in front of me as a man

His black tee shirt hugging his chest so tight, it looks like it would tear by the smallest of movement. his dark wash blue jeans hanging on his hips showing off his tone legs. His neck and arms covered in tattoos and god knows what other part of his body has them.

I look up taking in his face, his sharp jaw, his kissable lips, I would love to have on mine one more time, but what really got me was those blue eyes, that is staring straight at mine with so much passion, hope, and surprise, he almost knocks me down on my knees

Snap out of it Savannah, he broke your heart 

"Grayson" I say trying to sound stern, but coming out more breathless "Your back?"

"Yeah" He said taking a step forward, causing me to take a step back. He frown, but stayed still "How have you been, Savi? You look great"

"Am fine, You look.....Different" I replied pissed at myself. Of course he looks different he grown and war changes people

"You look just as beautiful as ever" I blushed for the first time since he left me

"When did you get back?"

"A couple months ago" I nodded wondering why he never seeked me out, was he with someone else? Did he move on and didnt feel the same for me anymore?

"Your a Real Estate Agent? What happened to going to school to become a vet?" He asked confussed

"Things change" So many thoughts was going through my head I needed to get to safer territories 

"I guess we should get started looking at the house" I motion with my hands

He was quiet for few moments clearing thinking, never once taking his eyes off me

"Lead the way" He finally replied

I walked to the kitchen and grabbed the folders handed him his "This is the information on the house"

I walked him through the entire house and backyard explaining everything that a person who's interested about the property should know. He watched me almost the whole time only looking at the place when I bring it to his attenton. It was nerve wracking 

When we stopped at the in ground pool and I turned to him and asked "What do you think? Do you have any questions?"

"Yes, I have one. What do you think of it? Do you think it's a great place?" He looked at me intensely

"I...Um... It's a great house and has an amazing view of the ocean. The neighbor crime rate is practically non-existant. The house is in a great school zone if you plan to start a family here or have kids" I choke out that last sentence. The thought of him married and having kids with someone kills me

I avoid his eyes at all cost. I watch his feet come into view before they stop right in front of me, his hand lifts my jaw so I'm eye level with him causing me to gasp. His eyes hold so many emotions

"The only person I have ever thought about starting a family with, is standing right in front of me. That will never change" My breath hitched and he dropped his hand and back up two steps "I'll take the house"

***********

"Mommy" My daughter yelled as I picked her up from daycare

"Hey, Sweetie, Did you have a good day?"

"Yeah, we got to finger paint today"

"That sounds exciding. What did you paint"

"Dolphin's mommy duh"

"Oh, of course, how could I forget" I say putting my hand on my forehead

"It's ok, mommy" My little girl giggles

I laugh as I put her in her booster seat. I get in and head towards my parents house for dinner

************

"Nanna" Aurora screamed running into my mothers arms

"My Princess" My mother chuckled lifting my daughter into her arms

"Hey Mom" I greeted

"Hi, Sweetie. Are you alright? You don't look so good" She said worried

"Geez, thanks mom" I replied "Where's dad?"

"He is on the patio grilling steaks for dinner" I just nodded

My mother gave me a look that says "We are gonna talk whether you want to or not" and put my daughter down "Princess why don't you go to your play room while dinner is being prepared"

"Ok, Nanna" she said and ran upstairs to my childhood bedroom

"So do you wanna tell me what's bothering you"

"Why do you think there is something bothering me?"

"Cause I know my daughter. Is it the guy you work with again? Is he still messing with you? I told you to report him. You shouldn't let him talk to you like that"

"My mood has nothing to do with Landon. Yes he still likes to insult me, but it doesn't bother much anymore since I started to fire back and before you say anything, yes I know I shouldn't scoop to his level, but its my way of dealing with it for right now"

"Then what's the problem?"

"I seen Grayson today" I murmur causing my mother to drop the cupcakes she just took out the oven on the kitchen floor

My dad walked in the kitchen after the incident with the cupcakes with a confused look on his face. My mom was still frozen with shock

We started cleaning up the cupcakes then Aurora appeared in the kitchen

*********

We just finished eating and Aurora is eating some ice cream for desert since we trashed the cupcakes.

My father wanting to know what happened in the kitchen, but I think he understood Aurora can't be in the room so, as soon as she was done Dad asked her if she wanted to play in her playroom which she agreed too

"So does someone want to explain why the cupcakes, I was looking forward to ended up on the floor?" He asked as soon as he couldn't hear Aurora footsteps on the steps anymore

I know he wasn't mad, just worried

My mom looked at me "Your daughter just dropped a bombshell on me"

"Please don't tell me you are pregnant again. Not that I wouldn't love my grandchild, but ....."

"No dad, I'm not pregnant" I groaned in my hands

"Then what's wrong? He asked with concern in his voice

"I seen Grayson today" I said looking him in his eyes

"Oh, fuck"

Yeah dad. Oh, fuck is right
