Married Single - Season 1 - Episode 36

.
Lucas….
She was struggling to stay calm. I could see her being so uncomfortable and I couldn’t let her far away. I needed her close to me and watching her opposite me made me want her close.

” come here ” I raised my voice and she slowly stood and sat besides me.

Without warning I kissed her lips. I felt her stiffen a bit, I took it slow allowing her to get accustomed to the kiss. Whatever gave me the confidence that she was to accept me,
I let her lips go and she looked straight at me.

” Lucas, am not ….”
” what?” I whispered
” I don’t think am the right person for you. I came in your life with lies, I don’t think you deserve me. Just look at me. I was divorced barely 3 months ago and….”

” I love you” I cut in making her sit up.
” oh my God Lucas, No you don’t, I mean you shouldn’t….” she stammered.
” Stella if one man was a fool, mistreated you and made you feel less of yourself then that should not make you think every man is the same.” I told her honestly.

All I could see in her was a woman who had undergone some rough path in life and needed me. I could sense her inner sadness. Without another word I pulled her up. She sighed pushing her hair extension backwards.
” come with me” i whispered leading her to my bedroom. She kept on looking around the place as I led the way .

” are you Okey?” I asked her as we stood in my room facing the wide bed that I had spent my lonely nights in.

” yeah am okey” she nodded and I smiled at her. Her looks making me smile as she looked like a teenage smiling and sighing her uneasiness.

” Lucas, I think I need to leave now it’s getting dark outside and you know I, I dont have a car, the , the landlord closses the gate at 20 hours” she stammered
” you acting like a child you know that?” I laughed still holding her hands.

I stood in front of her and held her waist so close.

” I want you here with me, you are spending a night in my house today” i informed her.
I couldn’t even ask, I was feeling myself so bossy I knew I had to slow down.

I recalled the last week’s she stayed away from me and how I had to nurse the hurt i was feeling. My mother kept on asking about her and I couldn’t just tell her the truth. I had to tell her We had a fight and we were going to work things out.
” my son, a woman is not difficult to win over. Just make her feel special. A woman is taken by the little gestures of love. You don’t have to buy her a whole lot or fly yourself up. The simplest and most stupid things that a man does to show her how she means to him wins over a woman’s heart.” She had told me.

I felt my heart at peace. It didn’t matter she had lied to me. All I wanted right that moment is to make her realise how special she was. Slowly I held her chin up making her eyes meet mine.
” can you please spend tonight with me? I have been looking forward to the day I will hold you this close in my arms.” I smiled rubbing my lips on hers.

I felt her relax as she smiled. Even though if i couldnt see the smile cause my eyes were closed. She held my neck and the touch of her hands on my skin made my heart skip a bit.
” am scared Lucas, maybe I don’t know how to go about all this now. Am scared I might end up falling in love with you and then later on be made to go through what just went through with my previous marriage. I don’t think I am that strong to endure any more heart breaks” she whispered tears falling from her now closed eyes.
” am so scared. Please don’t make me fall for you and break my heart again. If you May, just let me go before it’s too late” she sighed sadly.

I moved her to the bed and made her sit down.

” don’t be scared swity, I know what I feel and I wouldn’t want to see you hurt. I cant hurt you deliberately you should know that. Please don’t let the mistakes of one man, make us all pay.

Give us both a chance of being happy. You deserve to be loved and I dont know what your ex husband was thinking to let you go because for me I want to hold you like this forever” I said holding her close as I wrapped my hand around her shoulders.
” tell me Lucas, why do you think you love me?” She asked sounding so nervous.
” I don’t have a way of saying it. All I know is that the first day I saw you my heart leaped with joy and i knew you were the one. People can fall in love more than once you know? And I bet I never saw this coming when I lost my late wife. It’s even more deep and intense now” I giggled.

She looked at me and for the first time since she had walked in she smiled widely I knew she was going to be mine.

I moved her back making her lay on the bed facing up. As I went on top of her. She kept her eyes on me.

Kissing her tenderly and slowly making sure she felt every bit of the passion I was feeling for her.

She raised her hands to hold me but I shook my head. ” nope, don’t move” i smiled shaking my head.
