Can Love happen Twice ? ( On Hold )

Chapter 16

Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own...

Cole's POV :

"Cole I Do Not Love You" She whispered.

My entire world stopped.My heart fell into my stomach. She did not say that. Maybe my mind is playing tricks on me. My brain has still not accepted that she just told me she did not love me. To say I was heartbroken would be an understatement. Was she Breaking up with me ?? That could not be possible. She was the one to tell me she loves me...and now she says she does not. What the actual fuck was happening. 

"Say something Please" she begged.

So I said the first thing that came to my mind "Are you Breaking up with me?" 

She just asked me to meet her brother and now this. I was beyond confused. 

"No Cole No....I am not breaking up with you"

"Then what are you trying to say Victoria?" I raised my voice. Damn it I had waited my entire life to be with her and now she does not love me. Did I do something wrong ? Does she love someone else?

"I...I..Cole...I..." She stuttered clearly scared. 

I instantly felt guilty. I should have not raised my voice on her. I did not mean to shout at her but she was confusing me. 

"I'm sorry cutiepie. I didn't mean to shout at you. But please just tell me what exactly are you thinking?" I tried to keep my voice as low as possible. I did not want to get angry at her. I could never be angry with her. I loved her too much.

"Dont be sorry Cole. It's just that I only know you from 1month. I do have feelings for you but those feelings are not 'Love' but 'Like'. I don't love you...I like you..you must be thinking I am mad. But you have to understand Cole. I cannot fall in love with someone I met just 1 month ago but I cannot leave you Cole because I like you too much to let you go. I can never let you go...never" she whispered. The last part made my heart warm. I was somehow not shocked when she said she 'Likes' me. I had expected this. She did not know what love was. She did not know the difference between liking someone and loving them. I knew the difference because I loved her. When she first told me she loves me I was beyond shocked. Actually my life has been quite shocking since she became 'Mine'. I knew she did not love me but I was too selfish to tell her that. I had that small glint of hope that maybe....just maybe she would also love me like I loved her. I know it's dumb after all she was not the one to stalk me from the last 5years. 

"I will never let you go tori...Even if you want to go I'll not let you go" I smiled.

"I do not want you to let me go babe"

"Tori did you just call me 'Babe'. I chuckled. 

I knew she would be embarrassed and would blush like a tomato. I can actually describe all her expressions...After all I have observed her too much in the past 5 years 

"Urghh...you are so irritating... It was just a slip of the tongue. I did not mean it" she argued.

"Yeah yeah Tori...Whatever sails your boat"

"Cole....you're not angry with me?" she asked timidly.

I exactly know the reason she asked me this question. She felt that she has hurt me. Let me tell you one thing about My girl. She can never hurt you even if you hurt her thousand times. But if you hurt her friends then you are dead. She will always care about others. Even about the ones who hurt her. If you insult her, She will insult you but then she will feel sorry. She is the craziest girl I have ever seen. These are the few things that made me fall in love with her.
