Chapter Four: Feelings Revealed pt 3

I was walking towards my last class when I noticed someone was getting beat up. I moved closer and saw Christoffer getting pummeled by three thugs.



I rushed over, dropkicked the first guy, uppercutted the second, and punched and pummeled the third.





“You like beating up on people? Try beating on me, fuckers!”





“Stay away from us! Stay away!”





They tripped over each other trying to get away. They finally fell down the hill from tripping too much.





“I-I can’t thank you enough, Ashley. You’ve done so—“



I put my finger to his lips.





“Shush…let’s get you home, okay?”



I drove while he recuperated in the passenger seat. When we got home, I tended to his injuries and sent him to bed. His mother watched the entire time. I told her what happened and she nodded, amazed at the ferocity of my attack. As soon as I put him to bed, I wrote in my journal at the kitchen table.





11/27/07



Dear Journal,





I don’t know this feeling that’s welling up inside of me but I know that I’m fiercely protective of him and…I think it might be love..





I’ll think about it some more and get back to you ASAP.



-Ashley

11/28/07



Dear Journal,





I am in love with him! What am I to do about it? This is so strange! On the one hand, he could love me back like his mom was inferring to. One could only hope!



But what if he loves me just as a sister…what then?



More consideration is needed before making a decision.



-Ashley





Little did I know that I was speaking it out loud while writing it. Being in the room with me, Christoffer heard the whole thing.



He looked at me with longing, hope, and fear of rejection.



“Did you really mean what you said?”





I looked at him strangely and then realized that I had spoken my entry out loud.





I blushed and nodded.





He came over to my bed and kissed my hand.







“I love you too, Ashley, and I swear that I’m never letting anyone hurt you again…”



I shed some tears at this confession and cupped his chin. I kissed him on the lips and then flicked my tongue on his bottom lip, begging for entrance. He opened his mouth and our tongues melded together like our mouths did as we kissed. It took 5 minutes before our bodies finally told us we needed to breathe.





“That was intense…are we together now?”





He smiled and kissed my forehead.



“Yes…and hopefully I’ll have you as my bride soon. Will you handfast with me?”





I smiled and jumped into his waiting arms.



“Of course, Christoffer…I would do anything for you…”





We kissed again and slept in each other’s arms, having the first completely serene night in our lives.





“Good morning, beautiful…” he said as I slowly opened my eyes.





“And good morning to you, my dear one….what time is it?”





He looked at the alarm clock.





“It’s 6:30. You have work today?”





I nodded.





“Let me let you go get dressed and then, as soon as you get out, a hot breakfast will await you…”





I went into the shower, got my business suit on, and put on my makeup.





As soon as I got out of the door of the bathroom, I was bombarded with the heavenly smell of bacon, eggs, and toast. I went to the kitchen and saw the beautiful feast prepared for me by Christoffer.





I gave him a hug and a kiss and then tucked into the meal. As soon as I looked up, with a piece of egg hanging out, Marge stood in the kitchen doorway smirking.





“I knew you two would see…eventually.”





“Mom!” Chris was scandalized.







I just laughed.





“Marge, you know how to surprise a person, don’t you?”



She giggled.



“So when are you to going to handfast?”





“MOM!”





She gave an obviously false smile of innocence.





“What?” She asked sweetly.





Chris’ mouth hit the floor and I giggled.



“Soon, Marge…soon.”
