HER UNDYING LOVE ✔

Chapter 46

ALEXA'S POV:

"Alexa" Daniel called out. Suzzy came to see what I was looking at

"Oh my God, Is he crazy?" She shouted at me "he's going to die of freaking pneumonia" I looked at him again

"What do you think you are doing" i yelled back so he could hear through the heavy rain and thunder sounds

"I'm here to ask for your forgiveness Alexa, please forgive me"

"Oh so you couldn't come at another time? You chose to come when it's raining so you could die in front of my house?" I asked angrily

"I don't know if I have much time left, seeing you with your.... your boyfriend makes me realize I can't afford to waste anymore time. I'm not leaving this place till you forgive me"

"Fine then, you can turn ice cold if you like. I don't care" I marched back into my room

"Bunny boo, he's going to freeze out there" Suzzy said looking down at daniel

"Let him freeze, you heard him, he said he won't leave till I forgive him" she came and sat beside me

"You are being a little too harsh boo, I think he's truly sorry. He also came by the house as well" I looked at her with my mouth hanging open

"What?" I asked totally surprised "what did he want?"

"Well he came to apologise. I think he deserves a second chance boo. Even if you don't want him anymore, don't let him die in rain" she got on my bed and laid down to sleep. I lay beside her, her words running through my head.

Thirty minutes later, I kept tossing and turning in my bed without getting a wink of sleep. Ugh,  I got out of bed and took an umbrella before going downstairs.

I opened the front door and saw Daniel sitting close to my gate, his body shaking as he buried his head in between his legs. I walked up to him in the heavy rain. I stood before him and covered him with the umbrella while he was still squatting

He raised his head, finally noticing me "this doesn't mean I want to get back together, I just don't want you to die out here" I offered him my hand and he took it. I helped him stand up and led him into my house.

I took him to one of the guest rooms downstairs and led him to the shower. I tried turning on the heater while he took his clothes off

"Wait, wait, wait, what are you doing?" I asked, my eyes wide as I watched him try to take off his pants

"I want to bath, I'm terribly cold" his teeth and body shaking as he spoke

"Well who told you to stay in the rain?" I scolded

"I'm sorry" he looked down at his feet. Aww he looks like a little boy being scolded for doing something wrong

"You can undress when I leave" I turned to turn on the heater but the damn thing was just too high. I don't want to be in the bathroom with him any longer

"Why? you have seen me naked countless times" my face blushed red as I glared at him. I turned towards the heater again but this time, he came behind me and turned it on with ease. His hot breath was fanning my neck, despite being drenched in the rain, the heat that radiated from his body was enough to make me weak in the knees.

I turned slowly and watched him staring at me intently. The air thick around us as he started leaning in. I didn't even know when I too started leaning in. His lips were about to touch mine when a loud thunder struck making me jump, breaking the trance that I was in.

I quickly left the bathroom to let him do this business. I stood in the room with a red face and a fast beating heart. I quickly went back to my room to get blankets and clothes for him to wear.

With the blanket and clothes in my hand, I couldn't knock so I just opened the door. I stood still seeing him clad in nothing but a towel that hung lowly on his waist. I blinked a few times before going closer to him

"Um...clothes and blankets for you, I've kept your clothes in the dryer" I tried looking at anything else but him

"Thank you" he took them from me and inspected them before looking at me "are these clothes for Ethan?"

"No they belong to Phi...." The words already flew out of my mouth before I could stop it

"Phil? You mean that guy, Philip?" He asked staring at the clothes like they were trash

"Um... yeah" I answered awkwardly

"Thanks but I don't want to wear your boyfriend's clothes" he tossed the clothes to me

"Why are you being stubborn?"

"How would you expect me to wear the clothes of a man who is taking you away from me?" He got closer and held my face with both hands "I know you still love me, I know how much effect I have on you. Please give me another chance to prove that I won't hurt you again, please"

He slipped his hand around my face, leaning in. This was the second time he was trying to kiss me. I don't know what to do, what exactly am I scared of?

The moment his lips touched mine, I remained still and just continue to savor the softness and warmth of his lips pressed up against mine. I was about to respond to his kisses when he pulled away, saying something

I had to blink a few times to understand what he was saying after that breathtaking kiss "I'm sorry what?" He moved back

"If he's the one you love, and truly want to be with, I won't stop you from being happy with him" I opened my mouth to speak but he cut me off

"I love you very much Alexa but, if you're not happy with me, there's nothing I can do. I will allow you to be with him, it's the right thing to do." I was about to ask if he's giving up but realized that was a stupid question.

He walked away towards the bed and lay on it still wearing his towel. I didn't know what to say anymore so I just left the room.
