now.”
WHAT???
Madison
I had to get out of here before Chris came back. I couldn’t take it if something happened to Carter because of me. I was more terrified than I had ever been and, for a minute, I considered going back to Chris if he would leave Carter alone. He grabbed my face and made me look at him, but I closed my eyes because if I saw his face, I might loose all the courage I had to do this.
“Look at me, Maddy!”
I just shook my head. I couldn’t say anything because I didn’t trust my own voice. All of a sudden, Carter’s lips were on mine and all rational thought left me. This felt so right; it was unlike anything I had ever felt with anyone before. He pulled back and looked at me right in my eyes, and the love that I saw in his face diminished any hope I had that I could walk away from him. “I love you.”
“Why did you say you were going to leave, then?” He looked so confused and hurt. The last thing I wanted to do was hurt him. He meant everything to me and was the only person I had ever really felt love from. How did I explain this to him?
“I can’t stand the thought of something happening to you because of me. I love you so much that it hurts, and I’m scared to lose you. I don’t know what Chris is going to do, and it terrifies me.”
He took my hand and led me to the bedroom. He laid down and pulled me down on top of him. I settled onto my side and molded my body to his, draping my leg over his, and laying my head on his chest. This felt so right to me, like nothing in this world would ever compare to it. He held me so tight and made me feel so safe with him. Chris never wanted to lay together, and I usually avoided the bedroom because he always wanted sex when we were in there.
“Maddy, listen,” I looked up at his beautiful face. “I love you, and I will protect you no matter what. He won’t touch you, and I can take care of myself. I don’t want you to be scared and I will do anything I can to help you through this. Just don’t leave me because you are afraid. I don’t know what I would do without you. Last night, when I thought you chose Chris, I didn’t know what to do with myself. I felt like my world was caving in and I couldn’t breathe.”
I had to make him understand. I would do anything for him. I loved him more than I had ever loved anyone in my life, and I couldn’t stand the thought of him being hurt because of me. “Carter, I just ---“
“No, you’re not leaving me because you’re worried about him. If you want to leave me because you don’t love me, that’s one thing. It would kill me but but I would let you go if that was what you wanted.”
There is no way that I would ever want to leave him. He was the most amazing man that I have ever met in my life. “I never want to leave you; you’re all I’ve ever wanted.” I crushed my mouth to his, causing him to let out a low moan. I took the opportunity and slipped my tongue inside. There was so much passion in this kiss that it took my breath away. The way our mouths moved together was so sensual and perfect; he was perfect. This time it was me that pulled back from him. “If you want me, I’m here and I never want to leave.”
“Good because, after that kiss, I might not be able to chase after you without scaring the neighbors.” We both broke out in laughter, and it felt amazing to be able to be with him like this. “So, what do you want to do today?”
“Truthfully, if it’s okay with you, I’d like to lay in your arms and take a nap.”
“That sounds perfect.”
Carter
Waking up with her in my arms felt like a dream. Then, my attention was drawn to what actually woke me up--an intense need to pee, and my stomach begging for food. I slipped out from under the angel that was sleeping with me and made my way to the bathroom. After giving my bladder some relief, I headed into the kitchen to find something to make us.
Us. I could get used to saying that. I looked around the kitchen
