I had meant it. I had fallen for this girl, deeply, unashamedly. Without even realising it, my emotions repressed after years of solitude.
After we had both cum, the sexual pleasure fading, the feeling of love was still there. Stronger, even.
I vowed there and then that my only goal in life now was to make her happy. And I would strive in everything I did to make it happen.
“Axel.” She spoke gently into my ear.
“I do love you, you know. It wasn’t just... in the moment.” She sounded furtive, unsure of what I’d said, if I even knew I’d said it.
I turned to her, planting a big, lingering kiss on her lips.
“I love you too, Chlo’. And I mean it too. Ain’t one to say things I don’t mean.”
She laughed, relieved. “That’s for damn sure.”
I thought about the past, and our unknown future stretching out before us. The regrets, shame and fear of being hurt I had once carried around with me seemed distant. Starting to fade, quickly.
There would not be much room for anything other than the burgeoning love I felt for her.
I felt like I had started to heal, inside. This girl was something else.
“Listen, Chlo’. I ain’t going back to what I used to do. Ain’t gonna... do the things I used to.”
She was staring into my eyes.
“Kill people, you mean?”
“I’m being serious, babe. I ain’t gonna put myself at risk when all I want to do is keep you safe, make you happy. I’m a changed man already, I feel.. Different. Y’know?”
Her eyes sparkled as she smiled at me.
“I know, you big oaf. Me too. I’ve never felt like this before.”
She paused for a second, thoughtfully.
“Tell you what I’ll do. I’ll speak to my Dad. He’ll be able to arrange something for you. How does ‘Axel Miller, Head of Security Operations’ sound?”
I grimaced. “Ain’t one for sitting on my butt all day, Chlo’. And I don’t wanna wear a suit...” He paused. “Unless you ask me to, of course.” He winked at me.
I tapped him playfully on his chest.
“No, not like that. He mentioned something about a vacant position a few weeks ago. A security consultant. Plus he’ll probably want someone to improve security on the house after what’s happened.”
She smiled mischievously. “I’ll put in a good word. If you’re a good boy, that is.”
I smiled back at her, looking into her big, brown eyes.
“I’m out of practice, but I’m a fast study. Now kiss me.”
And she did, and at that moment I knew I would never kiss anyone else again.
