Chapter 467: Need a friend
Jabi
The next day, he wakes
up again and that sa smile is still on his face. The one he went with last night. The one that lets
know that everything that happened is long forgotten. He leans forward and slowly rests his forehead on mine, his eyes closing slowly.
"Am I allowed to go to school today?’’ I ask him because I want us to talk about it. I want to know if he is okay with
being friends with Lenny.
"Can I stop you?’’ he asks .
I lean forward and kiss him on the lips and he kisses
back. "I still want to go. I don’t want to stop.’’
He nods as he pulls away from , the smile is still on his face "Then we are going to do what you want to do.’ he smiles and jumps up from the bed. I watch him as he stretches out his hands for . I take them in mine and he pulls
off the bed. He wraps his arms around my waist and plants a kiss on my forehead.
"You are early today, so you don’t have to rush,’’ his eyes direct mine to the clock on the wall and I see that it is just a little after seven. I haven’t asked him about Lenny, he says he is okay with
going back to school but is he okay with
being friends with Lenny.
I want to be sure that he is okay with it.
I want to be sure that he is okay with everything before I take any chances and do anything to ss things up with him.
"What about Lenny,’’ I mumble my question.
He turns back to
and there is a blank expression on his face "I don’t like Lenny,’’ he seethes at .
"Why?’’
He sways backward, his eyes wide as he takes a deep breath in and then lets it out. "I can’t explain it,’’ he shrugs.
"Why did you say that if you don’t like him?’’
"Because he is not human,’’ he answers .
"You an because he is a vampire?’’
"Sort of,’’ he shrugs again like what he just said makes sense. I don’t know why he would not like him because he is just like us.
"He understands , he is good for .’’
He raises a brow "You just t him. How do you know he is god for you? What if he has an ulterior motive for wanting to be friends with you.’’
"He is just a friend. The only reason why he wants to be friends with
is that he is just like . I don’t think he has any ulterior motives as you think."
He runs his hands through his hair and I sense the frustration. Almost like he doesn’t want to talk about this anymore "You can be friends with anyone else in that school, why does it have to be him?’’
I reach for him and he doesn’t push
away. He never pushes
away and that is why it is so easy to talk to him.
"Can you give him a chance? I have you to protect , if he is the bad guy that you say he is, then I won’t push for this anymore."
"Why is this so important to you?’’ he asks
and I don’t even need to think about it. I feel lonely sotis. Like not lonely for love. I don’t need any more love because Darrien has given
everything I could ask for. He has beco the most important person in my life. He is what completes
but there is just a part of
that wants soone. A friend, other than him, and I feel like I can get that with Lenny and even if Lenny is not the one for that. I want to at least try.
"I don’t know, I just felt like, for the first ti in my life, I could be normal," I tell him honestly.
He nods slowly, he looks at
and then places his hand on my cheek he leans up and plants a kiss on my lips "I will give Lenny a chance, if you think he is a good person then I will trust you but the mont I notice anything fishy, it is over.’’
I nod my head and he pulls
close into his arms "You have to be careful around him, you can’t just trust him just because. No matter what.’’
I nod my head because he is right.
I just have to be careful because at the end of everything, I don’t really know him and maybe it is because he helped
today that I feel like I could trust him but we are not in that place yet.
"You know what, invite him over tonight. I want to know his intentions before I let this happen and I am afraid I was terrible to him earlier,’’ he scratches the back of his neck nervously and I look at my man and can’t help but love him even more.
Darrien will do anything for
and he has just proved it.
"Are you sure about this?’’
He nods imdiately "Yes. Let’s see if Lenny is trustworthy."
"We will see.’’
He kisses
and I laugh at the excitent inside of .
Darrien is so amazing and I have never t anyone like him. He has an otherworldly soul that I think only Darrien has and I know that I have found that place where I belong with him and no one is ever going to take
away from the world that he is. I don’t know how tonight will turn out but I am excited to see what will happen.
"I love you,’’ I smile at him and he nods his head, pulling
even closer. My lips find his again and I feel like the luckiest person on earth.
I have everything I want with Darrien and he has nothing to worry about with Lenny.
