I would die a happy woman.

ISABELLE

"There you are"

"Ahhh!!! How did you get here so fast?!" I scream, honestly scared out of my wits, damn I almost peed my pants.

"Oh, you mean after you left me for dead?" He stated with a raised brow and somehow he didn't look angry?

"Oh come on, left you for dead? That seems a little bit exaggerated no?" I shook my head and laughed nervously, "besides look at you, your still okay, scaring the shit out of me." I still couldn't be sure that he wasn't angry so I just assumed that he would be, "look I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me my legs just started moving on their own."

Then he smiled, a very confusing smile stepped forward, closer to me. I stepped backward unsure and very lost, what was going on. The forward-backward thing continued until I could move backward no more, stuck there by the wall behind me I could only watch as Xavier approached me with that annoying smile playing at his lips.

"W-What are you doing?" I stuttered and he laughed, Xavier laughed, and it was beautiful, his normally dark and string features brightened up and he looked like heaven, damn my heart!!!

"Will you date me?"

"W-What?"

"Date me, you will right? I won't take no for an answer, you already said you like me to take responsibility." I lost control of my body the moment I began to skip like that I just realized, because yet again my muscles moved like they were taking instructions from my erratic heart and not my sensible brain screaming he was dangerous, he belonged in a gang and being with him was dangerous for everything I was working for right now.

I nodded, twice and he smiled again. Leaning forward he placed his left arm beside my head against the wall. "I'm going to kiss you now" he whispered his voice soft and low in my ear.

Ieemmm!!! I squealed inwardly, genuinely surprised by how my legs still worked. Every part of me pinged in anticipation and the attention my lips got from his gaze on them lit me on fire.

As he drew closer my eyes fluttered shut and just when I thought I couldn't take it anymore his lips met mine and I swear I would die right now a happy woman. This was my first kiss and it was amazing, it was worth the wait in this life and the one prior.

At first, it was just his soft lips on mine, then his hand, I couldn't tell which cupping the side of my face. Tilting his head and slating his lips against mine he deepened the kiss and I whimpered. My poor heart, I felt so many emotions all at once and it made me dizzy. Perhaps he could tell, he probably could see as his powerful hands wrapped around my slim waist and pulled me closer to him. Until I was clutching to his poor shirt against for dear life. This, is this how amazing a kiss should be? I didn't even have time to be nervous about the fact that before his lips touched mine I didn't really know what to do but it would have been pointless. He was gentle and passionate with me, me Isabelle, he was gentle with me.

Pulling away slightly he looked in my eyes, his thumb stroking underneath my eyes, my grip on his forearm tightened as I looked away shyly. He tilted my head back and took my lips again, and I felt it all the way to the pit of my stomach and I knew for a fact at that moment that time stopped and it was just me and him in the world. Shutting my eyes I pushed out the gnawing thought behind that reminded me he wasn't truly interested in me but the image I had built surrounding the love of his life. I comforted myself with the truth, no matter what, I was me and he was Xavier he would never like me otherwise.

That was just the fact, so I would just enjoy this right now, this sensational feeling, Xavier is kissing me right now, at this moment right now I am the person he is paying the most attention to, that already is enough.
