Can love save a life? (Mc romance)

13 - The First Kiss

As they walked back into the clubhouse, Brooke growled as she saw everyone sitting around drinking. Instantly she was annoyed, they text everyone telling them to be at the table.

"Why aren't you fuckers at the table" Xavier screamed "don't none of you check your bloody phones" but instantly regretted shouting as he felt Brooke flinch in his arms. "Shit I'm sorry bumble"

No one expected Brooke to explode.

"I swear to god, listen to your future President and get around the fucking table" Brooke shouted "and if you don't I swear to god I will rip your balls off"

Everyone froze, completely shocked at the outburst. No one expected Brooke to have a backbone. But here she was taking control of the room. Like the leader she was destined to be.

But no one moved.

"Urm are you guys fucking deaf" Brooke snapped "get your asses moving and get into that room"

Xavier smirked, he loved seeing this side of her, and he could swear he saw some of the prospects piss themselves.

"Nice work kiddo" Craig grinned, kissing the top of Brooke's head. He was bursting with pride watching his daughter take control of a bunch of grown men.

"Bumble bee, where the hell did that come from?" Xavier grinned pulling Brooke into his side.

"I have no idea, guess I just had a lot of built up anger" Brooke shrugged looking up at Xavier.

"Well I loved it" Xavier hummed in her ear, his lips grazing her ear.

Brooke didn't know what was happening, but she felt flustered, Xavier was making her feel like a teenager again.

"I will see you in a bit" Xavier smiled kissing the top of her head.

"I don't think so Mr, I'm coming in with you" Brooke said standing her ground "this is about me so I'm coming to the table"

"Are you sure?" Xavier asked.

"One hundred percent" Brooke nodded.

"Only if you are sure, but promise if it gets too much don't be afraid to leave" Xavier nodded, leading Brooke into the room.

He took his seat at the table, pulling Brooke into his lap, he didn't care how it looked to the outside world.

He knew that Brooke needed to feel safe and he knew she felt safe in his arms. As he wrapped his arms around her waist, she leaned back into him.

"Okay boys calm down" Alex shouted slamming the gavel down. "So we have an issue. A big fucking issue. Brooke received a text today, threatening her."

Xavier felt Brooke tense under his arms, so he slipped his hand under the shirt that was his, his fingers brushed against her hip. Just a simple touch helped her visibly relax.

"The bastard that took Brooke knows she is back and he won't stop until he gets her. Since the text was received we have learned the full extent of Brooke past" Craig said, the pain was evident in his voice.

"We need to plan what we are going to do" Alex nodded "but me and Craig are not leading this"

"Dad what's going on?" Xavier asked, confused.

"You and James are going to take the lead on this, this will see if you are ready to take over when the time comes. And we both know you will succeed in bringing this bastard down" Craig nodded.

"Damn right we will bring him down" James nodded at Brooke.

"So the first thing we need to do is find out where the hell his compound is , once we have done that I need people to be staking out. I want a full rundown of everything that goes down, what their security is like. Everything. This bastard has intercepted plenty of shipments as well as completely ruining Brooke's life.  I want the stake out to start at seven am so go get some food and rest. Church over" Xavier said taking control.

Everyone started to filter out of the room, Alex placed his hand on Xavier's shoulder.

"Do us proud son" He nodded before walking out of the room.

Soon enough everyone had left the room leaving Xavier and Brooke alone, he nuzzled his face into the crook of her neck, inhaling her scent letting it calm him down.

"I'm proud of you bumble" Xavier whispered, still stroking her skin.

"I couldn't do it without you" Brooke whispered turning to face him, leaving her straddling Xavier. His hands firmly planted on her hips. "You give me the strength I need"

"I will always be here for you" Xavier whispered, getting lost in her green eyes.

"I know I can't remember everything about our childhood together but even if they don't come back I don't want to focus on the past" Brooke whispered placing her hand on his cheek. "In the short time I've been here you have made me feel so safe, like I can face the world with you by my side."

Taking a deep breath, Brooke took a chance, pressing her lips against Xavier's.

As soon as he realised what was happening he wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her as close to him as possible. He had been waiting for this moment for ages.

And he wasn't going to let it end. Brooke's fingers tangled in Xavier's hair. She couldn't get enough, he tasted like beer, mint and tobacco and it was intoxicating.

"You don't know how long I've been waiting and wanting to do that" Xavier whispered against Brooke lips. "I didn't want to rush you into anything"

Xavier had no idea what was happening, one kiss and she had turned him into a babbling mess. But he loved it.

"Ever since I came home" Brooke whispered "I thought you were fit and the last couple of days you have made me feel all these feelings, you make me nervous but in a good way"

"Well the feeling is definitely mutual baby" Xavier hummed, kissing her softly again.

"I feel like I can conquer the fucking world with you by my side. You don't care when I crumble and fall, you have been the one that always picks me up when I'm at my lowest" Brooke whispered resting her forehead against Xavier's.

He was just about to speak when Brooke's stomach grumbled making them both laugh.

"Well princess let's go conquer the fucking world" Xavier smirked "right after we go get you some food"

"Can you make pancakes?" Brooke giggled as Xavier stood up, causing Brooke to wrap her legs around his waist, nuzzling her face into his neck.

Even though Brooke was scared about what could happen with Tom but right now she didn't care as Xavier carried her through the house, this was going to be the start of something and she had a good feeling about it.
