“Lexi? Are you okay? I’m so sorry, I never meant to hurt you but I was so mad and I can smell someone else’s sce…deodorant on you and I just thought you were seeing another guy and I just flipped. I’m sorry Lex it won’t happen again.” Drake says as he kisses me corner of my lips
“Drake...it can’t happen again. It can’t. I don’t like that side of you and I know you never meant to hurt me but you did and that scares me. You scared me. It can’t happen again Drake.”
After witnessing the episode Drake threw I decide that its safer for me to lie, I was going to tell him the somewhat truth like I did my mom but Drake as well as the others are hiding things from me, I know it and I think it’s just safer for mom and I if I lie about the situation.
So with all the conviction in me, I lie to the best of my ability.
“Drake…I visited my friend Alex, she used to live near me until she moved, I lost touch with her then ran into her at the supermarket. She stays in Colters Grove, the next town over. Anyway, we just went out to eat and she introduced me to some of her family that was visiting her, it’s probably her cousins that you smell. Drake they know I’m dating you and I only want you.”
I look him in the eyes, I can see he is convinced when he smiles and shows me his white teeth, I know I’ve pleased him. “Thank you babe, I only want you and you already have me, I’m so sorry… I never want to hurt you again. You don’t have to be afraid of me. That will never happen again.” He says as he raises his lips towards mine.
“I missed you so much Lex…” he says before our lips meet and the pain that took over my body lessens. Our lips move together as if they’ve missed the others company. I realize that we are still half naked when my chest touches the skin of his warm chest, he’s in just his gym shorts and I’m in underwear. His hands are on my hips gently squeezing them as his tongue asks for entrance at my lips and they part as I invite him in. His tongue is so warm, so soft and his taste is minty, he moans in my mouth as I lower my body into his. His hands are now holding onto my ass as our mouths devour each other. His hand moves over my stomach then rests on waist.
“Lexi babe you taste so sweet, I want you so bad…” he growls in my ear as he shifts us so that he’s on top of me now with my legs wrapped around his waist.
I feel the pain in my back from hitting the door, I can deal with this pain as long as he continues taking my mind off everything he did to hurt me. He puts his one hand on my upper thigh and the other is next to my head holding himself up. Our lips are still together, our tongues colliding, intensifying the pleasure as he moves his body against mine to a rhythm, the thought of us being only separated by a few pieces of fabric makes me moan out loud when he grinds against me one more time.
“Baby if you keep moaning like that I don’t know if I can control myself …” he whispers in my ear in a gruff voice. I let out a husky giggle against his mouth. “Oh god baby that’s sexy… you swear you’ve never done any of this before?” he says against my mouth trailing kisses down my neck.
I don’t know where my boldness comes from but I tell him exactly what I’m thinking, “Nah… I haven’t… but it feels…. so good….” I groan as he brings his mouth back to my lips.
He whispers against my lips looking into my eyes, “Let me take care of you babe. Let me show you how much you mean to me…” he trails off as he starts kissing down my neck and chest, his other hand reaches behind my back and unclasps my bra with ease. He definitely has experience with these things.
I let his hands and lips explore my body, he’s gentle, caring and I can feel the love radiating from him, he’s the total opposite of the monster he was moments before when I walked in the house. Even though I never got to do any exploring of my own we’re both left panting facing each other lying on our sides.
Drake excuses himself to go to the bathroom, while he’s away I place my bra back on and turn to facing the window. I'm close to falling asleep when I hear Drake shut the door behind him, I feel him climb in the bed and wrap his arms around me as he gets comfortable. He kisses my neck and puts his arms around me the same way Jax did that night. My head is resting on his arm and his other hand is holding my hip, I hear him whisper in my ear thinking I’m asleep.
“I’m so sorry for hurting you Lex, I love you so much…”
He loves me? Drake loves me…
I love you too Drake, even though you hurt me.
