ALEX POV
I am not sure why I even brought up this conversation, now she is asking a lot of question so I guess the only way to end this is to leave, I got up the dinning table sit and walked to the kitchen but I should have know she has never change, she still has a lot of questions, questions that I did not want to answer right now. When I knew that I have hurt her with my words I had to make a amends but she immediately turned and was about to leave, for a moment I knew that if she walks through that kitchen door, all was gone and that scared the hell out of me. With that I pulled her into my embrace and kissed her, but I was surprised when she kissed me back, as I was enjoying the kiss, she jist pulled away. I thought the kiss would have changed her mind but it got her really upset and she was already walking out of the kitchen so I had to confess my feelings for her. "Its you...you.....you are the love of my life.....My First Love" right now i did not know what to expect, surely I did not expect her to say anything in fact I knew I have blown up everything I have worked hard for till now, just as I was so really prepared for her rejection she said "Ooh Alex why didn't you ever tell me, I always thought you hated me well that's after you left for country A." "I have loved you ever since the first day I meet you, the first time I say you in the rain, that was the day I fell in love with you, Leo wanted to introduce me to a friend of his that is pretty, I so I said yes after countless persuasions. So we came at the park and the rain had just started, everyone kept running for shelter but you kept spinning in the rain, and I said to my self "Damn she is so pretty," and I knew I had to be closer to you, so since that day I kept following you each time you wanted to come her for swimming, and when i5 wanted to confess to you Leo said I should not rather let you choose for yourself, and before we knew it we were leaving the country, you have no idea how much I wanted to tell you all of this, but then with leo around I knew I would never have a chance with you, you seemed to like him more and who am I to interfere there, so I gave way". I hope I am not too late, I have waited for years to say all this and now that I have for some weird reason I feel scare, I would die if she rejects me🤦♂️
ARSINOE POV
When I heard his confession and his explanations, I felt even more relieved, God knows how much I wanted to hear these words. I did not even know what came over me and I ended up speaking "I love you too...I have always loved you ever since I meet you at the market that same day, you were with a woman she was wearing a lavender dress but you sort of disappeared on me 🤭then later that day I saw you at the park and leo introduced you to me, and I knew it was destiny🤦♀️ atleast that's what I thought." "so they why didn't you tell me?" "that's because I thought that you liked someone else, I heard you tell Leo that😔" he took my hand saying "I guess there was a big misunderstanding then, I was telling Leo I like you and he said he likes you as Well, I want to make this work, can it?" do I want this to work? maybe but what about leo and every thing what will happen? but it's as if he heard my thoughts so he replied "we can take it slow, one step at a time, is that okay with you?" I was just super exited that I only nodded as an approval🤗.
We spent the entire night watching movies at the sofa while cuddling, lost track of time and did not even notice how I fell asleep. The next morning I woke up on the bed but i had an I idea of how i got to the bed🤭. He came in and i think this is what people call breakfast in bed☺. "Good morning sweetie pie" did someone just call me sweetie pie🤭 this is like a dream come true. "Good morning" I said back, he placed the food beside me before saying "your secretary called my office to schedule a meeting, little did they know we are meeting now😂" I never knew if he was a joker, he is always serious, even the public knows that, no photo of his with a smile has ever been posted, even the time he acted he barely smiled. "yah I totally forgot about that, and since when did you start messing around☺I like that though, speaking of that we really need to get back home ASAP" "Yes we will get to that but as soon as we finish this food" never in my life had I thought Alex and I would be a thing but here we are, "I don't want to wake up from this dream" "what dream?" I thought those were my inner thoughts, did not think i had voiced it out😂 "You And me, I don't want to wake up if this is a dream, I want to stop time so that infinity and forever could be ours" he leaned in about to kiss me but I quickly covered my mouth "I haven't brushed my tooth" at this point I felt embarrassed🤦♀️but all he did was just laugh " You are so cute when you act that way, let's be this way forever Okay?" he asked and I nodded. "For you, I can be anything."
