You Make it Possible-Under Re-Write

"Are you hungry?" Kai asks once we finally settle in and get into more comfortable clothes.

"Not really." I sigh.

"What's on your mind?" He asks scooting closer to me on the couch.

"Just nervous about my job." I say with a sad smile.

"What are you nervous about?" He asks while wrapping an arm around my shoulder.

"Just if I'll do well, and if I'll even be able to do it." I add with a bitter chuckle.

"Why wouldn't you be able to do it?"

"Well Ezekiel wants my answer around the time I'm supposed to start. What if something happens..." I say trailing off.

"I won't let anything happen to you. Like they said at the meeting we have the numbers, and we have the best fighters. He won't be able to lay a hand on you."

"I don't want him to lay a hand on anyone." I state.

Kai sighs and shrugs. "As much as I wish I could, I can't promise that."

I sigh and nod my head.

"And I know you'll do well. And I'm not just saying that because your my girl."  He adds quickly with a wink.

"Yeah whatever" I say jokingly rolling my eyes.

"So will you be helping him with his paintings?" He asks.

"Yeah pretty much."

"Will you be getting credit?"

"I hope so" I say with a chuckle.

"So what happens after he finishes his pieces?"

"Well if he has another gallery and wants to show new pieces I'd hope he'd keep me around. But he's more than likely going to show these for a while. I'll  need to start looking for another job once the time gets closer."

"I see."

"Yeah, I just hope I can find something. I'd like to keep up a job as an artist but I know it might not be possible. I just hope I can find something to put my abilities to use."

"What about an event planning business?" Kai asks with a mischievous smile.

"What do you mean?"

"Well I'm sure my mom could use some help on the designing side. I'm sure an artist point of view would be good."

"No way" I say with a wide smile starting to take over my face.

Kai smiles and nods his head. "I'm sure if I talked to my parents they'd like the idea."

"That would be so amazing!" I exclaim and immediately wrap my arms around his neck and pull him to me. He wraps his arms around my waist and lifts me so I'm straddling him.

I pepper kisses all over his face as he laughs at my excitement.

"I'll take that as a yes then?"

"Duh!" I say and press a heavy kiss to his lips.

"You're the best." I say once we pull away.

"I know" he says as he raises his hand behind my neck and pulls me back towards him for another kiss.

Kai's kiss was slow, and deep. What was meant to be a short sweet kiss began to feel a little heavier. I wrap my arms around his neck and pull him closer, and his hands that were wrapped around my waist were now tightly gripping my hips.

I start to pull away from the kiss, and trail kisses down his jaw to his neck to his favorite spot just below his ear. He groans lowly as I suck and lick the spot till it's a shade of red.
