Lethal Bride - Season 1 - Episode 29

☆☆☆☆
LOVE

“Easton for the love of Christ,
stop all this and let’s have a
normal new year”. He ignored
her and la!d on the bed with
his shoes on.

“Easton do you realize my bed sheet is white”

“Crystal do you realize my
heart wants you”. She stood
looking at him, shook her
head, then moved to seat on
the couch. They stared at each other for a long time before he got up suddenly. “I will
keep doing this everyday until you see how serious I am”.

He shoved his hand into
his pocket and left the room.

Easton kept to his word and kept coming back everyday, saying the same words to her
over and over again. He was
bent on having her. It didn’t
seem like anything was going to change his mind.

Everyday she expected him and
everyday he came. Soon her
thoughts centered around
him, but she tried hard not to
make him see she was in-love with him.
A month had passed and to
her surprise he had not come
up with any form of
assignment for her. It was
unusual and she missed having the thrill of doing everything,
she missed the authority. She
missed handling a pistol. She
felt reluctant going to the
club. She spent her time
writing songs to take her mind off everything. She wrote on several pieces of
paper, sq££zed and threw
them away, she never settled
for anyone. She kept writing
as her thoughts hovered around Easton. She sighed, sq££zed and threw the last
piece of paper away.


She spent days avoiding him, but
he always found ways to talk
to her. After bathing and eating, her
next goal was to sleep. She
la!d back on her bed and shut
her eyes, soon she dozed off,
dreaming of a life with
Easton. She woke up slowly with a
feel of someone’s lips on her
lips. Her eyes opened slowly
to see Easton kissing her.

For some reason she didn’t push
him away, she kissed him back with a passion she didn’t know she had. Her hands
went slowly around his head
as she pulled him closer. Part
of her wanted to stop, the
other part wanted everything. He stopped
kissing her and looked deep
into her eyes, she looked deep
into his eyes too. He smiled
with the corner of his mouth.

“you kissed me back” “yea”
“why?”
“I don’t know”
“are you mine now?”. She
smiled a little, but didn’t
answer. “I guess that’s a yes”. He
kissed her forehead, “can I
take my girlfriend out
tonight”

“Who?” she asked.

“You of course” “Hmmmmm, I see, when did that happen?”

“Now. Take your bath, get
dressed and let’s have our first
outing as a couple”. He carried
her over his shoulder. She giggled like a little girl. He opened her bathroom and
dropped her, but couldn’t let
go of her hand, he looked at
her with so much adoration.

“Are you going to watch me bath?” she asked.

“Oh! S--t! Sorry, sorry, I was
lost looking at you. You’re
beautiful. Let me let you be, I
will be downstairs waiting
for you”. He left. Crystal took her bath feeling good.

She hoped what they’ve started
would not end abruptly. She
changed into a casual mini
dress, slipped her feet into a
black flat sole. She got downstairs and saw Easton waiting patiently for her.

He watched her as she took
each step. Having her made
everything perfect for him. He
decided in his heart that he was going to make her the happiest woman on planet
earth. He could perceive her
perfume and he loved the floral scent.

“so where are we headed?”, she asked
“somewhere”
“where?”

“i will take you there”. He
held her hand and led her to
his car and off he zoomed to where he wanted to spend time with her.

She had never been to the
beach before, she always saw
it as a waste of time and
unnecessary, but being with Easton it felt different. The sea roared and rolled fiercely,
seashells were scattered all
over the sand. She watched as
kids ran cheerfully around the
seashore with the attentive guidance of their parents.

Easton asked her to pull off
her shoes and feel the sand
beneath her feet, she obeyed
and he did the same too. He
held her hand as they walked together watching people.

Easton drew her attention to
children that played around
them, “watch these children
play, look at how their parents watch them with an eagle’s eye”
“yea, I can see that, why?”
“good, that’s how we would
watch our own kids when
we come to the beach as a
family” She couldn’t believe what she
just heard. Easton of all people
is thinking of having a family
with her. He noticed her
reaction to what he just said.

“don’t worry, I will make sure they have a beautiful life away from crimes”. She
smiled and shook her head.

“Easton, you are going too
fast”

“I’m sorry, but I can’t help it”. He took her hand as they stood watching the waves of
the sea, each of them deep in
thoughts. A boy and a girl of
not more than ten years of
age stood in front of them, disrupting their individual thoughts.

One of them held a phone in their hand, “please can you take a picture of the
both of us”,

“sure”, Crystal was quick to answer.

She took the phone from them and started taking several pictures.

Easton watched her with so much
admiration. She finished
taking the pictures and handed the phone back to them. They thanked her and
ran off.

“you are going to be a great
momma”

“really” “yea, I know you would be, I
can see it”

“thanks”
