Water And Land

tell me again.

We were now in the elevator I tightly held onto (y/n) and rubbed her shoulders to keep her warm after her shower.  Her head would occasionally meet my shoulder or chest.  She was relaxed and worried about her father.  But deep down she knew her mom would take care of him.  He wouldn't want her to quit her job just to take care of him when he had her mom and brother. Shes going to call them latter tonight when she knows theyll all be around. The bell dinged and we got out of the elevator.  She didnt let go of my hand when we returned to the library.  She was thinking about what I said earlier about hooking up.  If I truely meant it.  That its something we can discuss thoroughly together. I should just let her express her feelings.
"(Y/n) is there something you need?"
"Can we talk about the whole um...thing this morning?"
"Why certainly. Go put some clothes on ill wait for you here."
She turned and rumedged around in her room.  I could hear her getting dressed. The sound of her just existing near me made me unbearably happy. Its very abnormal of me to feel so intensely for a human but this human is worth feeling the way i do.  Am I worried about Red finding out?  A little i am, but he's my friend and he'll underatand that companionship is something that I didn't foresee in my future.  So to have that opportunity and for it to be truthful I believe he'll entertain the idea of it being her.   She walks from her room her (f/c) hair still damp clung to the back of her spine.  She was still a little wet in a black floor length night gown the back had a deep plumdge exposing her beautiful shoulder blades.  The very ones I kissed the other night laying in bed.  This woman enveloped me in her sheer beauty. 
"Abe about early.  You said you would ... Hook up with me. Would it be more than hooking up to you."
"Ah I see what you are trying to get too.  You want me to tell you how i feel. That if this is more than just a physical need ."
"Essentially yes I am asking that."
I move closer to her to embrace her.  I push her hair to the right side of her neck and gently grace my fingers over her neck as I do so.

"You are much more than a physical need to me.  You are my companion my girlfriend I care immensely for you.  My life and may it be has been a good one since being here;  It has become dull. Null of any attraction. I had my books I had my job i had Red Lizz and The Doctor.  But that was it that was all i had.  I had my work and my family.  I wasnt truly living the way my many books depict.  Then when you walked into my life my emotions began to work again. I was curious again. I was willing to learn but not from a book again. You are the closest thing I have from making me not be the monster I look like. I love you.  More than words books or my actions right now could imply. So yes i would hook up with you but I think you humans would call it making love in this case."

"Abe.  You're not a monster youre beautiful.  I wish you could see yourself in my eyes....Tell me again please."
"Tell you what?"
"That you would make love to me."
"(Y/n) I would make love to you."
She embrassed me in the tightest hug placing her head in my chest. I could feel her wet hair cling to my skin.  I lead her to her bed room in the library and she follows.
"(Y/n) may I?"
As I gesture to the bed.  I lay myself on her bed as she nods following me there. Shes on top of me staring directly at me.  A part of me cant believe that I have such an amazingly mesmerizing woman to call my own. I knew where this was goimg to lead to so i need to tell her.
"(Y/n) I want to promise you something before we do this.  I want you to know I won't give up on you. Ever.  No matter how hard things become. Ill fight for you and protect you with every fiber in my being. The people I came from when the bureau found me were a tribe in the Amazon. They believed that people belonged together spiritually first before they could belong to eachother physically.  I always appreciated their respect for mental development and strength in trust over the hook up culture that's so popular here. I want to promise you that mentally I am yours.  physically I will be yours when the time comes.  So you can lay down.  I know your tired.  I don't want to do anything yet until you say so. "
I nuzzled close to her and enjoyed the smell of her soft skin as we both fell asleep in a hazy dream state.
