Confessing
"So are you going to start talking or should I beat the truth out of them" said Ceasar and for a moment I got confused why he was able to talk in his ware-form and when looking at him my jaw dropped and what followed was a scream that resounded throughout the forest.
"Why aren't you wearing any clothes!" I shouted with my back now facing him. Oh my gosh I can't believe I saw that, the sun has fully disappeared out of the sky and it was getting dark but I saw everything. I really can't believe I saw everything, he was naked and I saw his...thing. "That's what happens when you shift Dintle, your clothes get torn to shreds and when you turn back to your human form you end up naked!" He said that with an annoyed voice and I wondered how his voice had no ounce of embarrassment. He is naked in front of everyone, I heard the others turn back to their human form as well and he was shameless by saying" what the hell are you three doing showing your naked bodies to my Dintle!", "she isn't looking " said Adrian with an equally annoyed voice and I really wasn't looking.
It was only the four of them that shifted while Mia and Damian didn't see the need to as the others handled it well. "Tch y'all are lucky I thought of bringing some shorts" said Damian and I was relieved to hear him say that. After a few minutes I asked "is it okay for me to turn around?" , "yes we're done!" Said Peter and with amazing speed I closed the gap that was in-between us and gave him a punch on his face, specifically on his nose. "Argh goddamn it Dintle!" I didn't care about his complaints as I wanted to throw another punch on his face.
"What is wrong with you! If I didn't act they would've retreated because of you!" , " hey it's not my fault I couldn't sense them!" Tch this pathetic fool can't even man up and take the blame " yeah but you almost sabotaged whatever she had planned"said Damian and I was glad he was agreeing with me. " It's not Peter's fault, if he knew what you've planned then nothing would've gone wrong" silence followed after hearing who said that. It was Ceasar taking Peter's side and without thinking I walked towards him and when I was close enough I poured all my strength into my arm and gave him a slap so loud that it resounded throughout the forest.
"How dare you!" I asked while my voice betrayed me as I sounded shaky like I was about to cry. " Okay baby I'm so-" I didn't let him finish because I didn't want him to apologize, I know that I'm in the wrong but it was hard for me. " Don't! It hasn't been easy for me. I wanted to t-tell you from the very beginning but mghml khdfj kjf hiuffn mmjhg!" While trying to fight through the sobs and tell him how it has been he pulled me into his naked sculpture like chest and allowed me to cry.
" I'm sorry I really am and whatever it is It's ok, it's going to be okay " I felt so much relief hearing that like it's all I've wanted to hear from him, to tell me that it's okay. "It's okay if you don't want to talk right now I understand", "I'm sorry too, I shouldn't have kept you in the dark like that. I promise I won't ever do it again?" As if responding to what I said, he pulled away a little and then lowered his face for his thin lips to capture mine. It was brief but a sweet comforting kiss. He asked" better?" He asked. I nodded while feeling my cheeks getting hotter by the minute. I have now accepted that he will always make me blush, make my stomach be invaded with butterflies and have my heart beat erratically. I just love him so much, these small gestures of his always make my inside feel warm and fuzzy. I just hope he knows that and doesn't think over protectiveness is the only way to show that he cares about me.
"I love you!" ~silence~ maybe it may be too soon for many cause it hasn't even been a month since we've started dating but I can't help the way I feel about him. I have never felt this way before and I am certain that I love him, I don't, something beyond reasoning and explanation makes me feel so connected to him and I just love him more everyday. I don't ever want to be away from him or lose him so such a thing should not happen again. I promised that I'd be a good girlfriend and make sure that he made the right decision of being with me yet I kept him in the dark. He doesn't have to say it back because I'm the one who wanted to say it, to let him know that I don't just like him. It's more than that, this is love and I'm glad I found it on my first time.
His big hands held my face and pulled me in for a deeper, not passionate but a deeper kiss that was filled with so much emotion that it left my knees feeling weak. He was there to hold me when I failed to stand, the heat that I felt from his bare chest evoked something within me. He pulled away finally allowing me to breath and while having his forehead pressed against mine he whispered " I love you to baby" argh the way my heart jumped in joy is something I'll always remember. He didn't just say it because he felt obligated to, no I could tell that he also felt the same but to what extent I don't know. It doesn't matter right now. What matters is that I told him and I got to know that he feels the same, he loves me too.
