Restored

This is love

Molly

I was very angry. Why didn't he defend himself. He watched as his brother assumed whatever he wanted to believe and stood there for him to beat him.

I wanted to scold him but he was hurt and that was what really mattered.

"Do you want more water?". I asked him softly.

He shook his head.

"Ice?"

"Yes."

I got him ice and turned to go get him another shirt, this one was stained. He pulled me back and I landed on his laps. The tension came from nowhere and I couldn't even look at him.

"Are you still angry"

"Why are you calm, making it look like me being angry is wrong?" I questioned back.

"I was going to explode but you exploded first. That calmed me down. And come to think of it, Johnny thought he was protecting you. Actually Molly, no one has ever stood up for me like you did today?"

I looked at him surprised. Seriously? All his life. What about his parents. Then Johnny too? Was he abused as an adopted kid or what?

"Okay, I am no longer angry. But nobody has the right to hurt you physically or emotionally except me. Not even your family can do that. You are my responsibility now."

"Just one afternoon without seeing me has made you super possessive. A day without seeing me will make you marry me." He joked.

"Alexander Sarfo, this is not funny. You can't be hurt by anyone. They have no right to do that."

"Alright dear. But one thing, about being your boyfriend....were you serious?"

"You don't think I go around kissing every guy I miss. And neither do you go driving all your friends precisely female friends around. So do I have to wait for a proposal before I know my position in your life? Or maybe I am just your best friend?"

"Of course not." He cupped my face in his palm. " You are all I ever wanted. This is the best day of my life. From that day I first touched you. I have always told myself you will be mine. The mother of my children, the queen of my heart and the woman of my life. Can we jump the dating period and start courtship now?" He said.

"Go and change into something clean. I will be in the kitchen." I said and got up.

"Why do I feel like we are married already?" I heard him scream from the living room and I smiled to myself..
