Chapter 2 Two

Jayce

There hasn't been a time that I've ever been attached to a woman other than my mother and sister. My thoughts about relationships are very clear; I don't want commitment and complications in my life. But today, after seeing Rachel all sad, drinking alone in a bar made me angry. I always wanted to protect her even though she was an employee. But, when she is all drunk and vulnerable. alone like this, this doesn't seem to be possible. I find myself conflicted, torn between my desire to maintain emotional distance and my instinct to offer comfort and support. Perhaps it's time for me to reevaluate my stance on relationships and consider the possibility of opening up to someone like Rachel. After all, protecting her seems to matter more to me than I initially realized.

It doesn't change the fact that I hate to commit. But I don't know what happens to me when I'm with Rachel. I can't see her with anyone but me, and that's one of the reasons why I crossed my limits and did something I should have never done.

I slept with her and looked at what had happened at last. I should've known that Rachel is not the come-and-go type of girl; she wants commitment even if she never accepts the fact herself.

I sighed, turning to look at the drunken beauty sleeping beside me in the car. As I watched her peaceful face, I couldn't help but feel a mix of guilt and confusion. Despite my aversion to commitment, being with Rachel made me question my own beliefs and desires. I wondered if this unexpected connection was worth the potential heartache that could follow.

I don't know how much she'll remember about anything that happened tonight, but what I know is that if Rachel wants commitment then I'm allowing myself to let all my fears fade and see where this relationship takes both of us. I realized that sometimes taking risks and stepping out of my comfort zone could lead to unexpected happiness and growth. With Rachel, I was willing to explore the possibilities of a deeper connection and embrace the uncertainty that came with it.

I'm a selfish guy and I can't see my girl with anyone but myself.

I chuckle and turn my head, hearing Rachel mumble in her sleep. "I hate you," she playfully mutters, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips. I can't help but feel a surge of warmth and affection for her, knowing that even in her dreams, she still finds a way to express her love for me. It's moments like these that reassure me that taking the risk was worth it and that our relationship is built on a foundation of trust and genuine connection.

Life is never sad and boring when I'm beside her, she fills color in my black-and-white world. Her presence brings joy and excitement to every moment as if she has the power to turn even the most mundane tasks into adventures. I am grateful for her ability to bring out the best in me and make every day feel like a new opportunity for happiness.

"I know you don't," I mumbled close to her ear, removing a few strands of her hair away from her face, I carried her in my arms, and inside my house. As I walked through the threshold, a sense of warmth and comfort enveloped us. The familiar scent of home mingled with her perfume, creating a soothing atmosphere that instantly put us at ease. With each step, I couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude for having her by my side, transforming my house into a sanctuary filled with love and laughter.

Tomorrow, when she wakes up, I want to start a new chapter with her in my life. I want to create countless memories together, exploring new adventures and facing life's challenges hand in hand. With her, I know that every day will be filled with joy, growth, and a deep sense of fulfillment. But tonight I want her to sleep in my arms with her head close to my heart. As I hold her close, I can't help but reflect on how lucky I am to have found someone who truly understands and supports me. The sound of her steady breathing lulls me into a peaceful state, knowing that no matter what tomorrow brings, we will face it together.

"Tomorrow, I'll tell you how special you are to me," I said gently, pecking her lip, embracing her petite frame close to my warmth. As I watch her drift off to sleep, I can't help but feel a surge of gratitude for the love and connection we share. At this moment, I realize that there is no place I'd rather be than right here, holding her in my arms and cherishing the depth of our bond.

"I love you." I muffled softly, my voice filled with sincerity and affection. I knew that these three words could never fully capture the depth of my feelings for her, but I hoped they would serve as a reminder of my unwavering commitment to our relationship. With a gentle smile, I whispered to them once more, knowing that our love would continue to grow stronger with each passing day. I wrap my arms around her body, letting the sleep claim us both.

I hope tomorrow brings us happiness. and joy, as we navigate the challenges and joys of life together.
