Chapter 11: Chapter 11
I am out of me, totally furious about this situation. I have done everything possible for us to be here today and what do I hear? She is getting married. I can't leave her.
She turns and puts her hands in her hair. Wondering what she can tell me.
" Lea...tell me!" I say.
" Derick please I have to go now. I have to…" she says, trying to go.
I hold her and drag her to me forcefully with the most serious regard I have.
" Tell me how come you will be getting married to Allan?" I ask again.
" Leave me, Derick!" She repeats before I leave her. " I...have accepted this because I need to forget you, forget all what links you to me, forget you came back cause there is no way to continue."
She has her eyes bend while telling me the last phrase of her sentence. I could see doubt in her eyes and even if she gave me this answer I am sure of something, she isn't serious and sincere. Hope invades me and I know I have a chance to make her change her mind. I just have to be patient!
I get closer to her.
" Look at you, you can't even look at me right in my eyes before saying all this shits. Do you want to regret who we were? What we feel? Do you seriously want to regret the couple we were?" I ask.
" Couple? Yes, we were a couple but you perfectly know I never felt like being in a great relationship with you even though we loved each other. How do we call a relationship with only sex as a pleasant moment? Do you remember when we were in South Africa? I come to your house, we talk, laugh, get sex and then I go. Just as if I was a useless person." She says starting sobbing. " I always dreamed of having a fun day with you, that one day you get up and say, babe let get a dinner or let go and make fun but no… we never did such things, it was very rare!"
I admit all what she says and yes that wasn't what we called being a couple even though we were barely in love. I also want her to have beautiful moments either than in a room with her no matter our funny time laughing.
I wipe her little tears flowing along her cheeks then hold them tenderly.
" You know that it was in a certain manner not easy to do such things in South Africa, and still in our parent's home. You know that before I took your virginity, I had time to do such things but you didn't." I say.
" And when I had time...you didn't!" She says sadly.
" Exactly! But now is different," I say leaving her cheeks, I hold her hand smoothly and look at her. " We are free from our parent's control, we can do what we ever want, construct new memories. Lea! I have accomplished all this for you and me, and you have finally realized your dreams. You can't get married to Allan!" I join my forehead to hers, " I need you, Lea...now!" I say decided.
I kiss her forcefully and she gives me back the kiss. I can't resist her, especially so near. Her breath, her lips, her eyes all give me desire, high desires. I am full of envy right now, all make me remember when we were in South Africa though we were shy, we had the most delicious and pleasant sex moments ever and all I want is to make it hotter, more sexier!.
I hold her cheeks to attract more of her lips. Our tongues can't stop battling under this tumultuous temperature. I feel her hand on my neck attracting me more and more to her. We separate, our foreheads still joined and our breath trying to control. Holding her waist, I attract her to the table behind us, carry her and make her sit on it. I have control over her and all I want is to devour her entirely. Only with a towel, I have the pleasure and satisfaction to touch her bare chocolate skin.
She unbuttons my shirt fastly while placing savage kisses on my lips. I get excited and carry her up to her room. Let her lie and continue kissing her barely, caressing her smoothly, holding her tightly. I know she loves to have control over me, so I let her climb on me. She removed my trousers and let her towel down, making me have a spectacular view of her well-shaped body. I am boiling seeing her taking control of me like ever, memories invade me and I pull her back on the bed, kissing her from top to bottom. Making sure not to forget any part of her body, kissing everywhere and I repeat " everywhere", making her moan and pronounce my name several times under the exciting moments. I enter into her slowly, making the moment more pleasant, having close and concentrated eye contact with her creating the most important connection between us. Joining once more our soul.
I love this woman and am certain to get married to her no matter what.
A few minutes ago, as she always likes, I take her in my hands while we enroll in the bed cover without saying anything. But I feel as if I should break this silence.
" Forgive me, Lea!" I say, caressing her hair.
"Derick…" she says, redressing her head to me. " I can't hate you for long." She says looking at me and caressing my cheeks.
" So don't get married!"
" It's difficult!"
" I love you!"
" I love you too Derick and I don't want to hurt him."
" Why did you accept so fast?" I ask.
She redresses more and still look at me still covered with the bed cover.
"Because I was in front of his father and I couldn't say no because he has done everything for me."
" so you were force to accept?"
" No Derick and I don't want to talk about that now." She says getting in my arms again.
I turn to my jacket suit on the floor and remove the ring she gave me the other time and hang it to her.
"I don't want you to remove it again, always keep it with you until I give you a real and new one symbolism of our union."
She put her hand infront of me, with a smile and I put the ring around her finger for the second time in our life.
I hold her tightly and kiss her.
" Let me go and dress up, I have to go and see Taylor!" She says standing up.
" And Allan?" I ask.
She looks at me and instead asks me to search for her bra somewhere. I chuckle and she looks at me suspiciously.
" Oh no! Can't you change? Give me my bra. I know you hide it."
I laugh and look at her breast while biting my upper lip.
" Stop looking at me pervert." She says hiding her breast and chuckling.
She wears her skirt and I take her bra from where I hide it. I help her to put it on and close it. She turns and smiles at me while approaching her lips on mine and between them she says." You are stubborn!" I try to kiss her but she gets up and laughs before getting to the bathroom.
I dress up too until my phone rings. I see it is my mom calling. I can't ignore her call again and take up the call.
" Allo!" I say.
" Smith! Where are you?" She asks me.
Okay! She is angry when she calls me Smith. But I don't want to tell her where I am
" What do you want mom?"
" I want to know where you are, I tried to call Marco and I didn't get him."
" We are working!"
" Am not aware of you having a job in Toronto."
I stand and get far not Lea to hear me.
" Tell me what you want!" I say.
" Alright! I have gotten a partnership with a rich businessman Mr. Richard Parker."
" Great! But how did you do that?"
" That's why I'm asking you where you are, cause the only way for him to get a partnership with you is to get married to his daughter!"
" WHAT!" I shout and realize Lea can hear me and low down my voice. " How dare you do that without my consignment?"
" I don't need your consignment, you refuse to get married, so I did you a favor. Come back to the USA and get married to her." She says hanging up the phone.
"Fuck!"
" What is it?" Lea asks.
I can't tell her that now, everything is well between us and I can't spoil everything.
" No is okay, just work stressing me. Can we go?" I ask.
" Yes, I'm ready!"
I nod and we get to the hospital with the car I took back from the police station when they arrested her. She thanks me and we go. My mother is crazy if she thinks I will get married to someone I don't know.
