Finding a Hart (rewriting)

Life

You sat in the room for about 15 minutes before you heard the door slam shut. You were sitting on the bed trying to figure out what the man meant and what exactly they were talking about.

A few moments later you heard a soft knock one the door. "Amelia." Luca's voice was soft and worried. You didn't answer. He tried to open the door but you had locked it. "Amelia please open the door," he said softly.

You thought about it for a moment before unlocking it and going back to sitting on the bed. Luca took a short moment before opening the door slowly. "Hey," he said softly looking at you.

You were facing the window. You didn't want to see him or look at him because you were still trying to deal with the little part of the conversation you heard. "I know none of this makes sense but I need you to trust me," he said taking a step closer to the bed. "Trust you?" you scoffed.

"You do trust me don't you?" he asked responding to your remark. "I don't know Luca. You've been lying and keeping secrets from me. How am I supposed to trust you?!" you said standing up from his bed. "What happened today wasn't an accident, I got 'lucky'," you said mocking the man.

Luca's expression dropped at your words. He didn't know that you heard what the man had said. "Amelia--No!" you yelled interrupting him. "I'm not safe am I? Were they going to kill me?" you asked shouting at him. Luca's gaze fell to the ground. His silence answered your question and your heart dropped.

"Amelia things are a big mess right now but I can't lose you. I know you're mad but I need you to stay here in the apartment till things get sorted out," Luca said.

"No Luca what I need is for you to tell me what the fuck is going on," you exclaimed. You felt the anger build inside you. Luca wasn't telling you anything and it was infuriating.

His breathing became heavy and you saw he was getting mad too. "Amelia I can't tell you anything. You're already in danger. For you to know the rest of the details will ensure your death and that can't fucking happen," Luca yelled. "That's why I need you to listen to me, to trust me," he continued.

"Luca if my life is on the line then I have a right to know. This isn't fair," you said. He looked at you for a long moment and squeezed the bridge of his nose in frustration. " I can't Amelia, I'm sorry," he said before leaving the room. You heard the front door close and the apartment fell silent.

You felt tears fall down your cheeks. They weren't tears of sadness but tears of anger and fear. Your whole life had changed and you realise only now how much. Things will never be the same as they were. You couldn't help but wish that you could go back in time and change things before they came to whatever this was.

The rest of the days after that we're a blur. You couldn't really remember anything other than the fact that they were long and exhausting. You had been sleeping in the guest bedroom because you didn't have it in you to see Luca.

You had been stuck in the apartment for a whole week and it was starting to get frustrating. Even though you had to work you felt bored and alone.

You made your way to the kitchen to get a snack when you saw Luca rubbing his temples. He looked stressed and frustrated. You could have sworn he hadn't had any sleep due to the circles that started to form. Even though you were mad at him you were still mostly worried about him. You stared at him for a while as he stared typing something and then signing paper work.

You sighed and walked up behind him and rested your hands on him shoulders. He was so tense. You planted a kiss on the back of his head and started massaging him shoulders. You hear him groan out of relaxation. He put the pen down and leaned his head back. His head rested on your chest and you could feel him start to ease up. His eyes were closed and his face was relaxed.

"When was the last time you had a good nights sleep?" you asked softly. Luca didn't answer for a long moment. "What do you mean by sleep?" he asked, his eyes still closed. You giggled softly at his words even though it wasn't actually funny. You saw a small smile spread across his face.  He tilted his head so that he could look at you.

He looked into your eyes and you felt the butterflies form in your stomach. You missed him even though he was right there. You missed looking into his eyes, you missed this warm feeling that was forming. "You're so beautiful," he said softly. You blushed at his words. "I missed your smile," he said softly. You giggled at his words feeling your cheeks heat up even more and the butterflies flutter even more. "I missed your giggle too," he said chuckling softly. "I missed you."

His eyes were staring into yours lovingly. You couldn't help but smile. "I missed you too," you said and planted a kiss on his forehead. "Okay I think it's time for you to visit your bed," you said trying to pull him to his feet. He stood up and held you. His hands rested on your lower back as he looked down at you.

He leaned in and kissed you. Your lips intertwined ever so gently. Your tongues danced slowly and passionately with one another. His grip around you tightened as your heads swayed side to side. You missed this so much. You missed they way he made you feel. He broke the kiss and kissed your neck. A soft moan escaped your lips.

His hands traveled your body gently and you brought your hands to his hair. "Luca we can't," you sad sadly. "You need to get some sleep."

He groan and brought his eyes to yours. You smiled softly at the playful sad look in his eyes. "C'mon," you said taking his hand. You lead him to his bedroom and he threw himself onto the bed. You went to his cupboard and looked for a pair of sweatpants and a shirt for him to wear.

You found a grey pair of sweats and a black T-shirt. You turned to him with the clothes in your hand. His eyes were closed but he wasn't fully asleep. You could tell by the way he was breathing. "Here, put these on," you said softly as you sat next to him.
