Lee Tennyson

It's wrong but never felt so right

Despite the shitty things he talks he lips tasted saccharine; I was afraid I would get use to this taste and would crave for it so, I moved away breaking the kiss. He didn't care much and pulled me back into his arms, his embrace wasn't something I was aware of.

Not like the first time or the second time, this was different and new for me. I buried my face in his chest and felt the warmth I never experienced before. I was the one who got out from a shower but clearly, his scent was way better than mine.

He kissed me on my head and I smiled, he knows how to flaunt his charms and I was easily getting swayed, I couldn't even blame him for seducing me when he actually never did, I was the one who waited near the window just to see a glimpse of him. I was the one who wanted to see how he's doing while he locked himself in this room.

I, who never knew this world existed was now becoming a part of it and I wanted to hold onto that part forever, I was expecting too much and this is why I wanted to stay away from this guy. But now that I was in his arms, I don't think I can stay away.

He pulled me closer and looked in my eyes, I saw light in his eyes but still couldn't make out if this was just a fling for him or something else much more important than that, it was such a long journey which will end soon and I will be leaving with these bunch of memories and nothing more.

He gave me a final kiss and stood on the foot of the bed, I was dying in lust as his hands starting opening the chain of his pants, I wanted this to happen and couldn't wait anymore. I looked around running out of patience and my eyes went into deep shock.

A man was standing with a gun in his hands and I knew something was off, I switched our positions and stood like a wall in front of Lee, I knew this guy was going to shoot and I felt enormous pain behind my back.

I took the bullet instead of Lee without even realizing it, it was my instincts to save him and my body moved rapidly in order to replace our places, Lee was shocked and shouted my name in anger. I knew that at least I meant something to him even if it's not a priority I was still there, somewhere in his list.

I wanted to live after seeing him crying for me, if I die today, I'm going to regret the decision of not kissing him earlier, I would regret fighting with myself and trying to run while the guy I wanted was right before me. I would regret delaying that hug, I would regret not realizing my feelings for him early. But I wouldn't regret taking a bullet for him.

Perhaps, he wasn't playing and felt something. This gave me enough reason to smile and close my eyes. I wanted to say, I love you but didn't have the strength to speak. Everything got blurred and I could only hear his muffled voice while I was in his arms. I closed my eyes in pure happiness, the guy I loved was alive and was worried for me.

[I saw a girl running in my direction, shrouded in blood and I somehow knew someone was going to shoot her. I quickly ran towards her and helped her get away from the place. We drove off and I was finally able to save her, she was smiling and thanking me and I dropped her at the Tennyson's mansion.

"Thank you, Mr?" she said.

"Jordan, Jordan Halt" I replied and she smiled.

"I'm Jasmine, fiancé of the man walking, here." She said and I looked in that direction, I saw five men walking towards my car. Four of them were armed while the one in the center was walking with hands in his pockets.

His eyes never left mine as if I were his fiancé and he wouldn't look at anyone but me, I smiled out of generosity and wanted to go away from this place.

"You saved my fiancé's life, the least we can do is treat you with something." He said and I felt my heartbeat pacing.

He had such a dominating voice that anyone can get swayed effortlessly, I wanted to say no but the creepy fiancé held my hand and I had no other option than to walk with those mafia's.

I walked and felt so uncomfortable around these armed men, Lee signaled them and they scattered around, I let out a sigh in relief and was shocked on Lee's awareness. He seemed worried for his guests. We walked inside and entered into a never-ending journey. The hall was so long that I was tired and was only half way through.

"Are you guys punishing me? Your usual training would be walking in this zone, right?" I asked keeping my hands on my waist.

Both of them laughed at me while I crying out of tiredness, Lee grinned in my direction and held my hand, both of us starting running and got into some other dimension. I was panting severely as I got really tired by this long walk I never had before.

"We need to hide." He said and gripped my hand firmly.

"Why? I don't know about you but why me?" I said and he placed his finger on my lips.

We saw a girl running towards us with a weapon in her hand, she was aiming at us recklessly and I panicked. I didn't know why I was here or why I was letting him hold my hand, this is what I get after saving one's life?

"Don't worry, I'm not gonna let anything happen to you." We dodged the bullets as Lee guided me and never left my hand. I felt safe around him and he tripped, both of us fell on the floor and were finally about to see that person.

She walked closer and I realized it was his fiancé, why was she trying to kill his other half? I couldn't feel anymore helpless and regretted that I saved her in the woods. I should've just let her die and things wouldn't be like this. I wish I ran from that place and never looked back. Honesty doesn't get you anywhere.

She strolled towards us and Lee stood up in no time, he fought and snatched the bullet from her hands, he didn't take a second to shoot her and she fell on the floor. Lee saved me or else I would've been a dead meet.

The sound of fire made my body shiver and I fell oblivious, I could feel Lee picking me up in his arms and calling my name out.]

I opened my eyes and saw Lee in tears, he was shouting my name horribly and I realized everything was dream, I was happy seeing him so worried for me and a smile passed form my mouth.

"Lee?" I said and he looked in my direction.

"I had a dream, it was—" I started speaking but he interrupted.

"Shhh! Save it, tell me in person once you're perfectly well." He said and I again closed my eyes.

Hearing his voice was good but the dream I saw seemed weird. If I could save Jasmine that night, things wouldn't be much different as I would've met Lee and fallen for him, even if things happened otherwise.
