Chapter 12

TRISTAN'S POV

She agreed, I can't believe she actually agreed to go out with me,I know it's not a date or anything but the fact that she agreed makes me happy. I'm not sure if she'll forgive me but what I know that I have to try my best to make her forgive me and I will do anything for her. I love her and I've loved her for years, I don't think I would ever love another woman the way that I love her. I know she has feelings for me too but she's hurt and I am the reason behind that but now I was ready to rectify my mistakes. It was a misunderstanding for all this years we were separated just because I misunderstood her,now I know what they mean when they say commutation is very important in a relationship. If only I asked what was going on between her and Max back at the university I don't know where we would be right now, maybe we would be married.

I asked to come to a club I have no idea what she's going to think about this. I was still lost in my thoughts when the door crept open and Bella walked in, she wore a pair of blue jeans, white t-shirt, white sneakers and a blue leather jacket but I couldn't take my eyes off her she looked stunning and I realised she always looked gorgeous in anything she wore and it was as if she was getting prettier each time I saw her.

I didn't realise I had been staring at her the whole time until she spoke ". Are you done? " She asked taking a seat Infront of me.

" Yeah, umm hey, you look stunning" I said awkwardly as I was caught staring

" Thanks"

I ordered our drinks, I kept on staring at her I was stuck and I had no idea where to start " I'm so sorry Bella, I'm sorry for everything that I've done. For beating up Max and for rejecting you and humiliating you four years ago , I'm sorry and I'm willing to do anything to make things right but please forgive me."

" I hear you but I think you are apologising to the wrong person,I mean Max is the one who got beaten up so you should be apologising to him instead not me. Also you don't have to apologise for rejecting me, for humiliating me yes but not for rejecting me I can understand you didn't feel the same do it's okay" she said. I can't believe it she thinks I didn't feel the same way that is why I rejected her

" I had felt the same way about you too Bella,in fact I loved you and I still love you Bella , I just let my ego get the best of me back then and thought you were in a relationship with Max. When you confessed to me I thought you were playing me and I didn't want to get hurt so I rejected you,but I'm sorry I had loved you before you even Confessed your feelings for me." I looked at her to find her staring at me with bewilderment. She was looking at me but it was if she was looking through me searching for something, she looked with her chocolate eyes that could make any guy fall head over heels for her, I couldn't help it but I wanted to be the only guy to fall for those eyes,I wanted to make her mine.

" I'll speak to Max and apologise to him, like I said I'll do anything for you Bella,so will you please forgive me too" I pleaded with her " I still love you Bella, please give me a chance to prove my love for you, please" I got down on one knee Infront of her, call me crazy but I really love her.

Third person POV

Bella stood up and helped Tristan get up, she couldn't watch the only man she had ever loved suffer. Tristan got up,his gaze fixed on Bella he was trying to figure out what she was thinking but he found nothing he was sure that Bella wouldn't forgive him but what happened next took him by suprise. Bella threw her arms around him and hugged him tightly,he was surprised at first but then he eventually returned to the hug. They stayed like that for a few minutes before breaking apart, they stood there staring in each other' s eyes you could cut the sexual tension in the room with a knife.

" Thank you so much Bella, I swear you won't regret it." Tristan said,they took their seats and began to chat. They told each other things that happened four years ago how Bella decided to move to SA and continue her studies at UCT. Tristan also got to learn that the day he saw Bella with Max he was cheering her up because she had just lost her parents. He also told Bella what he had done after she left but of course he didn't tell her that he was so disappointed that she had left that he turned into a work alcoholic and never thought about moving on with his life because she had a strong hold on his heart.

Their evening went on smoothly. Like a true gentleman Tristan walked Bella to her car kissed her goodbye before walking to his own car,but of course it was just a peck on her cheek. Bella drove to her apartment grinning like a Cheshire cat,she was exhilarated. She was in love and she couldn't wait to tell Max and Jace about it. She looked like a high school girl who had just received a love letter from her crush,she sang along the songs playing on the radio as she drove. She had no idea what awaited her back at her apartment and that all her happiness was soon going to die down.
