Can't Hate You

Winter magic

Elijah

She put my sweater on.. she loved my clothes because they were too big for her and she enjoyed walking around without pants. Of course I enjoyed it too.

I grabbed a black sweater and put in on. Out of nowhere I heard her scream. My heart stopped. I turned around and rushed to look after her only to see how she was standing on the window. I thought she hurt herself or something.

"Babygirl?"

She slowly turned around to me.

"Daddy, look! It's snowing again!" she said like a little child that was happy about the snow. It's been snowing a lot in the past weeks. She loved the snow and everything else that was related to winter.

I smiled and she ran over to me and hugged me. I looked outside and saw the thick flakes falling onto the ground that was already white.

Seeing her getting excited about these little things was the cutest thing ever..

"Can we go outside and have a snowball fight?" she asked with sparkling eyes. She looked like a cute puppy.. how could I say no? I wasn't a fan of this snowball fight stuff or this cozy winter s**t but I would've done everything for her. "Please daddy!" she held my hand and looked at me with a soft smile that she knew I couldn't resist.. When I nodded she screamed of happiness and jumped on me.

We changed into some thick clothes and I helped her with putting her sweater on. Her body was so warm and she was smelling so good I couldn't get enough of her... she lifted her hands and after I put it on her, she smiled at me like a cute little kitten. Her messy hair made her look even softer... I handed her two jackets but she didn't want to put them on.

"Two? I only need the thicker one!" she said. I rolled my eyes. "Do you know how cold it is!?" I asked and she sighed and I knew we were going to argue about this shit.. »Babygirl... I won't let you freeze or get sick so move!"

She crossed her arms in front of her chest. Why was she so damn stubborn about something so simple?

"We'll have a snowball fight! That means I'll move! So I won't freeze." she said. God damn did she have to be as stubborn as me? Obviously.. I grabbed her face and looked at her very seriously. "Listen to daddy."

She smirked and nodded knowing how serous I was and that I was using my daddy card. That's exactly what she wanted..

When I was convinced that she was all wrapped out we exited to the backyard. It look so f*****g amazing that even I was shocked.. So much snow.. and it kept snowing. It made everything look like a fairytale world.. She chuckled and got my attention.

Before I could say something she started running around in the snow.

I could hear her laughing and that was my favorite moment of all the time. Watching her while she was laughing and having fun was everything I wanted. I couldn't even move or join her because I was too amazed by my view. She was heaven...

Unfortunately she caught me off guard. The snowball that she threw right at my face was cold as f**k and made my face hurt. I wiped it off my face and heard er laugh. If it would've been someone else I would've killed that person.

"That happens when you don't pay attention!"

I clenched my jaw and tried to stay calm.

I slowly walked towards her. I bent down and picked some snow up. I formed it into a snowball and gave her a dangerous look.. she knew I was good when it came to aiming.. "You mad, daddy?" she asked me with a smile knowing how to piss me off.. "Yeah.." I said with a husky voice and nodded. I threw the snowball at her and she covered her head.

She screamed and I laughed.

"You mad, babygirl?"

She looked at me eyes widened. "You got me on my leg!"

We began to fight and we had so much fun... I never thought I could be so careless and have fun like this. It felt a little childish but so good..

We laughed the whole time and I never wanted it to stop... until I threw one at her head.

I almost got a heart attack because she screamed and almost started crying.. I guessed that there was a stone in it or I threw it too hard or something else.. she let herself fall on the ground and kept holding onto her head...

I ran towards her and got on my knees in front of her. Hurting her was the last thing I wanted. It was one thing I was afraid of the most..

"Babygirl.. look at me.." I said trying to make her look at me.. I was so nervous I was about to lose it.

Melissa

I smacked a snowball right in his face and started laughing until I saw how mad he looked.. I knew that he was mad because I tricked him. For a second I really thought that he was going to kill me. He looked at me and swiped the snow off his face. The depth stare he gave me made my heart race fast as hell. He clenched his jaw and I knew this was going to be the end of me.

"Are you crazy..?" he asked me with a deep voice. He was serious.. each piece of happiness flew away.. "Daddy I.." he grabbed my wrists and I thought he was going to lose it.. I knew he never wanted to hurt me.. and I never thought that my small prank would be so serious to him..

I knew that his blood was boiling.. my wrists were already hurting but I couldn't get a word out.

"I seriously thought I hurt you..." his voice was deeper than earlier and shaking. My chin was shaking as well. "No you didn't-.." he interrupted me. "I almost lost my mind..."he said and his grip tightened. "You're hurting me..." I said quietly..

He made me lay down on the ground that was covered with snow and got on top of me.. at that point I wasn't sure anymore if I needed to be scared or not.

"Don't you dare to scare me like that again.." he said and I nodded quickly..

I knew how much I meant to me and what I did was actually evil because I knew he used to lose his mind every time. got hurt. I only hoped he would calm down and forgive me this small mistake. I didn't meant to scare him or something..

Elijah

I knew I was hurting her. I did it on purpose because she really scared the s**t out of me. Her getting hurt was one of my biggest fears and I wouldn't have forgiven myself if I would've hurt her.

She tried to free herself. I could see that she was scared that I would go even crazier and keep cutting her but that's not what I wanted..

She looked to her left and I grabbed her face to make her look at me. She freed one hand and tried to push me off her but she didn't succeed.

Melissa

I thought he was going to hurt me even more or say something but he kissed me out of nowhere and for a second I didn't even realize it because I was so surprised but then I kissed him back and felt how he calmed down and softened.

Elijah

I knew that I scared her but she knew that it wasn't my purpose when I kissed her. As I looked at her I could notice how relieved she was.. I wanted to feel relieved too but I couldn't because of my own confusion.. this damn thought got stuck in my brain and I couldn't wait anymore..

We were quiet for a while until she broke the silence... "I thought you..-" I cut her off because it just popped out of me.

"Marry me."

She furrowed her eyebrows and looked confused as hell what I could understand because I was feeling the same but I was deadass serious and not regretting anything.. I meant it and I wanted it. There wasn't going to be the perfect timing or perfect place.. everything was perfect as long as she was with me.. she was all I needed.

"Wha-.."

"Marry me..."

Maybe it wasn't romantic and the way she probably expected it but I knew she didn't expect it at all and I wanted it so much that I couldn't wait any longer.. I didn't want to lose her no matter what was going to happen. I wanted her by my side... always.. without being afraid of missing her one day..

She was still shocked and I wasn't sure if she understood it because her jaw dropped and I could see how nervous she got... The snowflakes in her hair made her look even more beautiful and I wanted to marry her in that moment..

"Will you marry me?" I asked with a shaking emotional voice.. I was afraid that she would say no because she was too young, it was too early or because of any other reason... but then she smiled and started laughing. I could see the tears in her eyes..

"Yes.. YES!" she screamed and wrapped her arms around me. She began to cry while I felt huge happiness and relief.. even I got emotional... I smiled and took a deep breath while she was crying hysterically.. she was everything I needed and I wanted her to be mine with every inch.. I wanted her to have my surname.. I wanted her to be my wife.. not only my girl..

"I love you."
