The girl before she woke.

When we were young part 1&2

Chapter 15

Rachel open her eyes just as Donovan was laying her down on a dark blue covered bed.

"Hey" he said siting down next to her, his thumb gently stroke her cheek. She couldn't say anything so instead she just stared at his beautiful stormy eyes. Hoping that it was all but just a bad dream. She had near;y convinced herself too until she saw the blood drops across his chest.

He seemed so calm about killing those men like it was as normal as taking a shower. Was it normal for him? For them? she couldn't help but wonder. The thought made Rachel 's stomach turn and soon bile rose in her throat.

"Bathroom?"she jumped up yelling at him.

"Right there" he pointed to a closed door only a couple of feet away from the bed.

Rachel ran as fast as her legs could carry her as soon as she got to the toilet her stomach cleaned itself out, causing her body to jerk with every attack.It didn't take long for Donovan to catch up with her, he stood silently behind her just pulling her hair out of her face. when it seemed like she was finally done, she flushed the toilet and made her way to the tap. She tried rinsing her mouth out with water then she saw a bottle of mouth wash on her right,"May I?" she asked Donovan was watching her.

"Sure" he said indifferent,

She washed her mouth out instantly  relieved to get rid of the disgusting taste that occupied her mouth. Startled by the sudden sound of water , Rachel spun herself around confused. Donovan had started to draw a bath, not really sure if it was for her , him or the both of them she froze in her spot but Donovan seemed oblivious to her demeanor.

He closed the taps, stepping out of the room leaving Rachel momentarily perplexed however before she knew it he had returned with a fresh towel and a black shirt with the words G.O.C written in white on the front.

"Take a bath and try to relax a little. I'll be waiting for you till your done, we need to talk'.

Donovan caressed her cheek again then walked out closing the door behind him. He never was one for many words and Rachel always wished he would just talk a little more,That was until now and she would happily give her right arm to get out of the conversation waiting for her behind that door an irony that wasn't lost on her.

She stripped from her clothes and emerged herself into the lukewarm water.Her muscles immediately felt relieved even if her mind wasn't. On the side of the tub stood a bottle of 3 in 1  body wash spearmint and citrus scented.Rachel smiled to herself at the sight it was something so authentically Donovan. Emerging her head under the water Rachel wet her hair, she placed a decent amount of wash in her hand and begun letting her fingers work their way through. After about fifteen minutes she was clean from her head to her toes's and dressed in the black shirt with her towel dried hair hanging in strings behind her back.

Donovan was sitting in a brown leather chair sipping on a beer when she entered the bedroom. He hadn't notice her coming in and seemed lost starring at what looks like a piece of paper in his hands.Rachel cleared her throat trying to get his attention making her way to the bed. She quickly sat down on the edge of the bed facing him.

"Feeling better?' he asked her giving her a small smile.

"Yes, thank you" she tried to ignore the flatter in her stomach from being so close to him.

He nodded a slight frown played on his face, silence grew between them and with every passing second she grew more weary. Suddenly he leaned forward handing her the paper he had held in his hands.

"What's this?" She asked him taking the item form his out stretched hand. She curiously looked at the paper between her hands only it wasn't a paper it was a photo.A photo of a young girl with wild red hair smiling lovely up at a dark head boy towering above her. Wait a second... she took a closer look , the boy looks like Donovan and the girl looks like her but it can't be. Can it?

When she asked about her life everyone told her she didn't have a boyfriend. That she always said she was too busy for such things but how does that explain the photo in front of her. The two teenagers looks infatuated with each other.

"What am I too you?" she asked her eyes still glued too the picture.

"Everything" he answered with out skipping a beat.

 chapter 16

Rachel's eyes snapped to his searching the truth in his words .He held her gaze strong and assertive not wavering even for a second.

"What?" she asked not trusting her own hearing.

"Rach , I love you. I have loved you since the first night a saved you at that crappy bar. For two years I've been a f*****g mess trying to fit women and booze and money into the giant whole you left when I lost you.Then you came back. I couldn't believe my luck, the girl I loved more then anyone or thing .I wanted you so bad I could hardly breath when I thought of you but the I remembered how I lost you the first time and I knew you were better off without me.

I didn't deserved you three years ago and I sure as hell don't deserve you now. Robert Hastings is a lot of things including a arrogant son of a b***h but he does love you Rachel. Does why I stayed away , I wanted to see you happy and for a while you were even though it killed me to know it was without me. But then Robert f****d up and still I fought with myself to stay away even after we hooked up. But f**k that! I'm an selfish bastard and I'm done staying away from you Rachel. I'm done."

Donovan put his empty beer bottle on the dresser then made his way over to Rachel. Cupping her face he claimed her mouth with an overpowering mixture of passion and intensity that made her pulse rise and body shudder under his touch.Rachel met his fire with her own burning desire for him, a small moan escaped her lips as his hands traveled down her body.It was a natural and sweet feeling being in Donovan's arms so close and personal. Like her body remembered his touch even if her mind didn't and she was in complete bliss.The nagging feeling that she still had questions he needed to answer suddenly submersed but she quickly pushed it aside when he slipped his hand over her behind giving it a tight squeeze. 

He trailed wet soft kisses all along her jawline and then down her neck causing desire to flare in Rachel's lower region.She pulled on the hem of his shirt and Donovan got the hint pulling it of leaving his upper body exposed. Rachel gasped at his well build form , letting her fingers wonder over his stomach and chest causing a groan to escape Donovan's lips.He kissed her hard and needy taking hold of her shirt and pulling it over her head. Donovan froze , his eyes roaming over her exposed body drinking her in. Heat rose to Rachel's cheeks watching Donovan admire her body. Although it made her shy it also made her feel liberated and desired something she has never experienced before.

"Beautiful" he whispered lifting her chin and pressed his lips on hers .The took their time exploring each others mouths, fighting for dominance while caressing each other sweetly.Donovan was lying in between Rachel's legs their chest pressed together warm and soft. She could feel him press against her inner thigh wanting , needy her and aroused her even more. Without warning he broke their kiss and buried his head in her neck kissing it softly.

"We should stop. If we don't I don't think I'm going to be able to control myself" he confessed to her.

Rachel's heart warmed at his thoughtfulness, how he tried to control himself in case she wasn't ready. Asking permission in his own silly sweet way. It made her want to be with him even more and the truth was she was dying to be taken by him.

"Good, she said. I want you to loose control".

Donovan's head shot up, "Are you sure?"

"I've never been surer about anything in my life" she answered truthfully.

Donovan got ride of his pants , crawled in between her legs kissing her mouth savoring her taste.

Without so much as another thought , he pushed himself inside her welcoming her warm embrace. Rachel gasped of the sudden fullness it felt extremely good having him inside of her so good in fact that she couldn't help moaning out loud as he started to thrust in side of her. One other the another he pushed himself into her gripping her hip with his one hand and her thigh with his other. Rachel through her head back in complete ecstasy , gripping his shoulders she whimpered his name.

"I love you so f*****g much" Donovan breathed in between kissing down her stomach. Rachel shivered at his touch her heart humming with delight at his words. She reached up to cup his face while she kissed him trying to pour all her love for him right into him. Soon a warm sensation started to built in side her and she felt her walls grip around him tighter. 

"f**k!" he exclaimed .You feel so good, so right." As if his words was a trigger she began to feel the heat rising. Look into his eyes Rachel fell of the edge screaming out his name and not too long after Donovan followed. They laid intertwined in each other arms while catching their breaths, a complete feeling of unconditional love wrapped around them.
