Chapter 1130 [Bonus ] 1065: Leon's Date 2
Thinking about how many things she had missed because she was holed up inside their mansion only training just to uphold her family's name, Ariel bite her lower lip, because her father didn't have any other child besides her she was forced to act like a man, carrying everyone expectations, this forged her cold personality, she was not happy at first being engaged to Leon but things changed as they spent more time together, he was too good to her so much that she was scared wondering if she was not dreaming.
"Kefira what are you thinking about so deeply since a while ago?"
Ariel yelped when she finally heard herself being called by Leon. Laughing stiffly, she shook her head and berated herself in her mind.
'Don't lose yourself. He is doing his best for you.'
She knew that this date would eventually lead to many things. Even though at this level her answer was clear to the two of them and more akin to a formality, it was still a very important step in their relationship.
More than anything, this was her first date. She wanted it to be a success.
Meanwhile, Leon didn't miss the myriad of expressions that flashed on Ariel's face. But it didn't matter. He was willing to take his time for her. She was more than worth it.
He had been thinking about this date for a while so he prepared a lot and took advice from his brother Alex, so he would imitate him. Leon had decided that letting Ariel walk around and explore the city was the best thing. She would also use this opportunity to clear her mind. He believe his efforts would eventually reach her, making her completely fall for him, and winning her heart once and forever.
Until lunchtime, the two of them enjoyed themselves while walking around.
Deciding to take a rest, Leon found a bench under the shade for them. They weren't particularly tired, to be honest. But sitting a little was always nice.
Leon's eyes gleamed as he recalled a detail from Alex's date he told him so he decided to try it as well.
Once he sat, he looked with curiosity at the fidgeting Ariel who seemed to gather her courage, before finally seating on his lap.
He could feel her ass through her thin skirt, and it was truly a tremendously destructive force striking right into his reasoning.
To be specific, he couldn't move as if he was completely turned to stone because he felt like if he moved, a certain part of his body would react and turn into a stone instead, so he was trying to make an effort in not moving and keeping his mind free from obstructive thoughts.
'I'm curious about how Alex succeeded. Maybe because he was used to women.'
Thankfully, he was someone with tremendous self-restraint and so, once the shock passed, he was in control of his urge.
"Today was really fun. Everything seemed to be shining… It made me feel really happy."
"I'm also having a lot of fun with you by my side."
A warm atmosphere seemed to surround the two as they spoke like that.
He hugged Ariel from behind as tight as he could without hurting her. She twitched in reaction, but she didn't seem to be resisting as she let him hug her body, making him feel her soft warmth filling his whole body.
Still feeling the warmth of her body, his hand was heading to the bulges of her breasts, but he managed to control himself at the last moment. After all, no matter what they decided to do, he would never disrespect her by feeling her up outside in the streets.
Thinking so, he let his hand trail down before taking her hand in his. He felt like his heart was beating so fast it was about to explode. He could feel that he truly loved this woman, for her he would do anything and everything.
Their date hadn't ended so the two stood up before continuing to walk hand in hand.
They ate different things, played in different stalls, and simply enjoyed themselves the best possible.
It wasn't a luxurious date. But, for Ariel, this was perhaps the best day for her since very long ago.
She only remembered having felt such happiness when her mother was still alive and she would play with her.
This was a moment she wished to keep in her memory for eternity.
They finally reached a tall hill in a park that seemingly overlooked a great part of the city.
Ariel admired the beautiful view while Sol stood behind her and hugged her.
''When I see you, it's as if space and time become the finest point imaginable as if time collapses into one speck and explodes at light speed. It's as if my universe begins and ends with you. I could run forever, search forever, but in the end, every path leads right back to your heart and soul. I love you, always.''
Leon was not done with his declaration, when you fall in love with someone not even one million words will be enough to describe how you truly feel, so using every opportunity to express your love can help show the other party how much you care and love them. Words are destructive and more impactful than action sometimes when it comes to Love.
''My love, you are the open door - aged oak soft in the light of a burning fire. I stand on the threshold looking in, watching the sunlight that streams through a window. There are fireside chairs, warm colors, and peacefulness. I want to walk in, gently push on the door, and feel it beneath my palm. I want to sit in a chair and feel the warmth that radiates, my skin illuminated by the light. And I want to stay there forever, with you. In this life, you are the only one my soul feels so safe with. You're my heaven and I can be yours.''
Again Leon was not down as he still has something to add, he had a complete preparation for today, researching a lot, reading a lot of books, everything with the sole purpose of reaching her heart, breaking the cocoon surrounding it, and sneaking his way in and forever stay in.
''Cough! Cough! I will end my declaration on this note: If any one moment in time anchored my soul, creating a tether to this plane of reality, it was the moment I fell in love with you. I realized that I had a protector born of pure love and how could I not love that? How could I not love all that you are? You are the rope and knot to this vessel now in safe mooring. For that, I will ever be yours. In these words I hope you find your truth.''
Even though he was embarrassed by all of this still he didn't regret anything he had said because it was truly how he felt.
Upon hearing those words from Leon, seemed to break a dam in her heart as her eyes began to moisten a little.
Closing her eyes, she inhaled deeply before taking away his arms from around her and turning to face him.
"When I am with you, I feel happy as if I was walking on a cloud. Every day, I would wait eagerly for your calls. Passing time with you made everything more bearable and more beautiful."
She blushed as she continued.
"Leon, you know, right here right now, I can easily confirm. I love you. From the bottom of my heart, I love you. I love you so much it hurts but I don't regret loving you because you are the one to make me feel loved again, I'm fragile but in your hands, I'll be unbreakable and I know only you can do this. For this, I'm grateful, grateful for Fate to have brought us together and for your efforts to unite us, thank you and I love you for the best and worst, forever."
She declared in a soft and firm voice. Taking his hand into her, she continued,
"Just for you to know, I am an awfully needy and spoiled woman who has completely fallen in love with you."
"This isn't a problem."
"I am someone prone to depression and self-doubt, I love training and fighting."
"I know."
''You can have another woman beside me because I'm extremely jealous ok?" She had to prevent him from copying his friend and brother Alex, she could not take it if he were to do that. She can only praise Alex's women, especially his first woman.
Leon smiled as he had expected something like this to happen so he was not surprised.
"I was ready for that from the beginning."
"Then, I am in your care."
This time, Leon's answer was a gentle and light kiss.
This was the second time she was kissed in her life. All she could remember was how sweet it tasted and the special feeling she had the moment their lips connected.
'In his kiss I am home.'
Tonight was bound to be exceptional and memorable for both of them.
