CHAPTER 13

JANE POV

It has been the 3rd week since my relationship with Noah. To be sincere it had been the best of best, everything about me became brighter again! I no longer feel the way I felt before, I mean heartbroken. Noah was always there for me anytime I needed him despite the hiding from Marcus and Mary most especially.

We both have a usual day when we meet but Noah had sent a written message to me through his most trusted guard. The message had said he needed to meet me urgently! Firstly, I had thought Marcus had finally found out about everything and that was the reason Noah needed to meet urgently but the last written message indicated that he still missed me so much, I doubt Marcus must have found out.

I knew I couldn't smell nice or apply some little makeup but I decided to give myself a nice bath. Immediately I was done! I rushed to our usual place but it seems I had gotten there too early, I stood close to the river as the cool breeze blew massive air to my uncovered skin. I stood there for 7minutes! blankly thinking of the only man who I love right now, every time I think about Noah and I being in relationships! It always felts like a dream.

I was brought back from the little tickling, which made me move a little and blush. I knew the exact person who does that, Noah? "Noah you seriously startled me," I said with a little frown. "Why would you be startled, Jane? I mean I am the only one who does that to you or is there, someone, apart from me?" Noah asked.

"What do you mean by someone apart from you? You know you are the only one." I said. "I miss you that was why I must have said that," Noah said. "Why did you move some inches away? I need a hug." Noah said expanding his arms for a hug.

I couldn't let him win just like that! so I needed to play hard to get this time. "Maybe you should catch me first then I can consider you a hug," I said before running. Noah kept chasing me until I couldn't run again, we both fell on the floor staring at each other. I began to laugh hard and Noah joined in laughing, we stood up and had a quick bath in the river.

We got tired of splashing and playing with the cold water as we sat down on the sand staring at the birds making noises. they look adorable and precious, we couldn't just get our eyes off them. "Jane, I am leaving camp..." Noah said breaking the silence and making the birds fly away. I am sure they also must be shocked by the news, was he breaking up with me? Didn't he love me anymore? Was he tired of me? This we're the only question rotating around my head.

I just couldn't hide what I was feeling as watery substance kept pouring down my cheeks. "Don't you love me anymore? Are you tired of me?" I asked still in tears, I seriously don't know if I could live without Noah. "Why would you say I don't love you? You know, it you and only you that I love." Noah said as he hugged me tightly.

Was he trying to confront me by hugging me? I seriously needed none of this right now. "If you truly love me as you claim, why do you intend to leave me?" I asked as the tears came flowing more.

"Because I want a good future for you and my children," Noah said making me confused. "Jane Since the first day I laid my eyes on you, there is this chemistry between us that I can't explain! I don't know how to explain it but I know you complete me and I can't live without you, I want you to be the mother of my unborn child, I love you."

I was lost for words. I didn't know exactly what to say or do, was I suppose to be happy or sad. This was supposed to make me happy and glad but he was leaving me in camp, he was probably saying this to make me happy for now.

I strode to we're our clothes were placed so they could dry but his next word made tears to drop from my eyes again. "Would you marry me?" Noah asked. His statement made more tears pour out my years, this wasn't tears of grief! They were tears of happiness.

I ran towards him and hugged him tightly which he did the same. "I am so sorry Noah but I can't accept your proposal! Maybe not presently," I said. "But why? What the problem?" Noah asked as he held both hands in his.

"Because I can't leave without the young kids in camp. I had promised we were all leaving together," I explained. I notice he was giving it a thought, I didn't want him doing something he might regret. "What about we escape with them through a plan that wouldn't be suspicious to Marcus.

"How could that be possible?" I asked. "Do you believe when I say! I have a plan?" Noah asked staring at me. "Yes, I believe you," I said hugging him. "You haven't responded to my proposal yet," Noah said between hugs which made me smile.

"Yes, I would marry you," I said hugging him tighter. He pulled away and cupped my face into his hands! "I would always be there for you. I promise," Noah said before kissing me on the lips softly! Immediately after he pulled away, I dragged him closer and kissed him deeply which he responded to.

In no second we were kissing on the grit, Noah was on top of me as his hands secured my waist so he could kiss me properly! He pulled away and stared at me. I didn't know why but I was angry that he had to stop, "what wrong?" I asked. "I don't know if you also want what I want," he said shyly.

I stared back at him before kissing his lips again. "I want you," that was all I said before Noah and I had sex.
