61
Dalia just nodded her head and continued too look at Andrew with a unsettling look on her face. I turned my head away from Andrew and Dalia too Emily and Veronica, who were both on the verge of breaking down.
All of a sudden Travis walked into the room and I thanked the Gods for his perfect timing. “Travis could you take Dalia too go get some food from the cafeteria.” I said, giving him a look making sure he knew not to argue with me.
He looked around the room and nodded, picking Dalia up off my lap and into his arms as he walked out of the room. I heard Veronica fall to the floor in tears and sobs, as soon as Dalia was out of earshot.
I ran over to her and wrapped her in my embrace, trying my best to comfort her.
“H-he”s too young to die, Ava. He needs to be okay.” She sobbed into my arms. I felt tears escaping my eyes and tried my best to hold them in, for Veronicas sake.
“He will be.” I stated, knowing I had to be the strong one like Travis and Seb had been for me.
I looked up at Emily who was just staring at Andrew with a unreadable look on her face. I pulled away from Veronica and helped her get off the floor and to Andrew.
“I will give you three some privacy.” I said, tears threatening to escape my eyes. Both of them nodded but never looked at me, their eyes just on Andrew. I walked out of the room and into the hallway, closing the door behind me and slouching on the back of the wall.
I closed my eyes and tried to shut out the rest of the world, trying to get a moment of peace but all I saw when I closed my eyes was him.
Instead of trying to push him out of my head I just let my mind fly through everything it wanted too.
It went back to the day he first let me in, when he told me about his father. I had never seen him that sentimental and open with me before. When he explained to me that he let go of the grudge he had on his father when he became a better person I knew that he was the most selfless person I knew.
He had moved on from the fact that his father beat him and didn”t love him for Dalia. He let Dalia grow up with a perfect father and never once hated her for that, which was something that I would never be able to do.
I needed him alive but I didn”t know if I had the strength to let him back in my life. Even though he apologized and explained everything didn”t mean he didn”t do it and I wouldn”t be someone who just forgive him when he almost died.
When he got shoot I knew that all the walls I had built up broke down and all the feelings I had tried to push away came rushing back, but I still didn”t trust him.
Even after I had been with him every step of the way, when he left me for 3 weeks and when I got kidnapped by Robert I never blamed him for any of it and I forgave him. But he broke me beyond repair this time and I truly believe I could never be with him again.
“Ava.” Seb said, bringing me out of my thoughts.
“Mhm.” I said, opening my eyes.
“He needs you in his life.” Seb said, sighing.
“I can”t be in his life.” Was all I said before walking back into his room where Dalia, Emily and Veronica were.
“We were just leaving, dear.” Emily said, grabbing Dalias hand and walking out with Veronica in tears not far behind me.
I nodded and waited for them too all leave the room before sitting next to Andrews bed. I closed my eyes and held his hand, arguing with myself about what I was going to do if Andrew woke up.
“Ava.” I heard a familiar husky voice say.
Ava”s POV
“Ava.”
I shot my eyes wide open and stared at a pain or beautiful green eyes that I had missed so much. “Andrew.” I trembled, my voice shaky.
He brought his hand too my face and stroked his thumb across my cheek. My breath hitched as his touch gave my stomach butterflies and would send electric sparks throughs my body. I brought my hand too his which was on my face and leaned into his touch, craving it.
“I missed you so much, Kitten.” He said, softly.
“Co-” I started, knowing what I had too do.
“No, don”t please. Ava I can”t live without you, you complete me in every way possible. You made me into a better man and without you I am lost. What I did was awful and stupid and I will never forgive myself for what I did too you. But I am soo sorry and I will tell you that everyday for the rest of my life… you are the only person that can make me feel anything.” He said.
My heart broke at each word and I searched his eyes for any hint of lying but he wasn”t. I felt my eyes water and my chest clench at what I was about too say.
“Andrew, I love you with everything in me. You are the only person in this world that saw all of me and showed me how too open up, you taught me that I am not defined by what people do too me. You made me strong and helped me find myself again.” I admitted, squeezing his hand.
“But you are also the person that made me distrust everyone, you broke me beyond repair and because of you I can”t feel anything anymore. I trusted you with everything I had, my body, my soul and my heart but it wasn”t enough for you too trust me back. I forgive you and I will never hate you for what you did but in the end I am still broken and I can”t have you fix me just for you too break me all over again.” I said, my throat dry from each word I said.
“Ava, pl-” He started, his eyes glossy from what I had just said.
“Andrew, I love you but both of us need too let each other go.” I said, interrupting him. I felt my heart break and I finally retracted my hand from his grasp after I had finished.
“No, please kitten. Please I can”t live without you.” He said, a tear escaping from his eyes as he looked me in the eye.
“Look at me and tell me you can walk away from me. Look at me and tell me you hate me and I will let you go.” He continued.
My hands became shaking and I could feel my breath stop. “I can”t.” I finally said, looking at the ground.
“Then don”t leave, stay with me. You love me and I love you and that should be enough so please.” He begged.
For some reason I let my body stand up from the chair and I walked over too where he was laying. I brought my hand too his face and let it stroke his hair, missing the way his hair feel through my fingers.
I couldn”t let him go but I wasn”t sure if I would be with him, I wanted to choose the option that would hurt me the least but in the end I knew both would eventually kill me I just didn”t know if I wanted to be alone when I die or with him.
I looked averted my gaze from his hair into his deep green eyes, that were already looking at me, and for that moment there was only him. No hurt, no pain, no betrayal just me and him both in love.
“Ava, I can”t promise that I will never hurt you but I can promise that my love for you will never fade and that you are the only person in this world that I can”t live without.” He said, wrapping his hands around my waist and pulling me onto him.
A tear escaped my eyes and all at once I knew that he was enough for me. His and my love was enough for me too stay and that if I was too die he was the only person worth dying for.
“Okay.” I breathed out, my eyes looking straight into his.
“Okay.” He whispered, bringing his face closer to mine.
I felt his lips hovering over mine and my desire for him only became more. I loved everything about him, even though he did hurt me more then anyone had before it was beautiful. His pain was something I would never understand but my heart only belonged to him and he was the only person I would let break it.
I pressed my lips onto his and electricity flew through my body, my body molding perfectly into his. He pressed his lips even harder onto mine, both of us hungry for each other, missing each other. I would never forget that kiss, the kiss that was a silent promise made by both of us.
No matter the hurt or pain our hearts and souls only belonged to each other and that our love was enough…
I basically cried writing this, by far Ava”s and Andrews love story is my favorite. I am going to miss writing about them so much and I hate ending the story here because letting goo of the story is going to be so hard.
But I just want to say if you have stayed through all 61 chapters I love you so much.
There will be one more chapter as their ending.
Anyway, I will be writing another hot and steamy story here as a sequel to this but with different characters and i promise you will enjoy it. Thank you all
