Love Is A Leap

Chapter Four.

"I'm so scared Edward, I don't know what to do, I can't see Melina like this, it's killing me completely." I whispered into his shoulder and he gathered me even closer.

"Look at me." His voice was commanding so I peered up at him through my misty eyes and I saw the raw need and pain in his eyes,

"What's wrong, Edward?" I asked him and I was almost afraid to listen to his answer.

"I can't see you in pain, please Samantha for my sake stop crying." His voice almost send me toppling backward, but that was the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me and my tears almost went back in my eyes, we were gazing in each other eyes as if nothing else mattered and yet again I felt a shiver go down the length of me, I was all ready in his arms all he had to do was bend his head down and place his lips over mine. And he did do that, his lips brushed mine very frivolously and I all but melted in his arms, this was something I wanted to do from the day he had come back and now when he was finally kissing me nothing had prepared me for this explosive experience, and all he was doing was brushing his lips against mine, suddenly his lips increased the pressure and I gasped. His kiss was like water to a dehydrated woman. His lips were moving in a sluggish and sensual rhythm. He tasted magnificent-strong, masculine and sure. My eyes closed as the delicious sensations tingled me at the most intimate part of my body. Edward tugged me even closer and the touching increased my hair ... my face ... my neck ... he was touching me as if it mattered as if he could not let go. And all the while his kiss was playing havoc with my mind, I could not expect of anything else but this man and the moment ... a jarring sound of a mobile took us by surprise and I pulled away from Edward. I had even forgotten that we were still in the airport and I was too ashamed to even look at Edward so I went out of the airport and waited for him in the parking lot. Whoa! I had no clue what had just happened inside there one minute I was crying and the other I was kissing Edward like a long lost lover, and I was shocked to realise that I had actually enjoyed the kiss and I wanted it to go on forever. At that very moment Edward came out and again a rush of heat flooded my body. God I had it bad. I had to stop this,

"Edward, I ... sorry ... I don't know ... sorry." God I suck at words I really do. I saw him push his hands through his hairs and release a tense breath and all was because of me and I was feeling so bad to call him down here then getting entangled in this situation with him.

"Edward, really I'm sorry I had no right to call you down here I should cope myself but ..." I gulped I knew I was going to burst into tears any minute now. So I continued,

"Nick is not calling me back and Mel kept on asking for him and then the attack it just knocked me for six, I really am a failure." I whispered the last line and again Edward expelled a long breath.

"Samantha stop blaming yourself, it was not your fault, the kiss it just happened and I promise it won't happen again. Now we have to go to the hospital and also you have to STOP crying. Ok?" He sounded irritated and I felt really bad. So without saying another word I went in the car and Edward came in the seat next to me and we drove to the hospital. As soon as I went to the doctor with Edward he practically jumped at me.

"Where have you been?" Oh my god he sounded impatient.

"Wassamatter?" I asked him and I was really touched when Edward got hold of my hand I glanced up at him and he was looking at me tenderly, I was so thankful to have him here with me.

"Miss Melina wanted to see you, but you weren't anywhere." He glanced at Edward and asked me,

"Is this gentleman, Nicholas?" I saw Edward's jaw tighten on Nick's name and I shook my head.

Edwards grip tightened and I gulped I knew I would never be able to survive seeing Melina like that but again I looked at Edward and he mouthed,

"I'm gonna be there with you."
