Taniya_K Posted October 10, 2008 Report Posted October 10, 2008 *wipes away tears* God that was beautiful! Poor Belle. I can totally understand why she felt like she did, but I'm so glad that she has Aden now! Great chapter once again! Can't wait for more. xoxo btw I dunno if you've answered this already, but how old are Aden and Belle in this fic? Same as the show?

whispered_envy Posted October 13, 2008 Report Posted October 13, 2008 Why have I not commented on that last chapter? That was amazing. I cannot wait for more!
Jody Posted October 13, 2008 Report Posted October 13, 2008 Belle's confession was just as good as Aden's one. I loved the way Aden kept reassurring her. The ending was really sweet with Aden telling her to put the light of.

Chapter 14 She held her body as still as she could hoping not to wake the boys whos arms were wrapped tightly around her. She’d woken up with her mind racing as it tried to process everything she had learned the previous night, she couldn’t understand, infact she refused to understand how someone could hurt a child like that; Specially Aden who had been nothing but caring and attentive with her, putting up with her horrible mood swings and evasiveness. He seemed so unaffected but she knew differently, she’d felt the fear in his body as he spoke, felt his heartbeat raise and then slow excruciatingly as he told her. He wanted so desperately to be strong. She felt guilty which was the main reason she was lying so still; she was scared to wake Aden. Everything she went through paled in comparison to what he had endured as a young boy. It was horrendous and he was still dealing with it everyday. Sure her parents had neglected her, she had dealt with loss at a young age but the abuse he had withstood made her feel so insignificant, not in a bad way, it put things into perspective in a way they never had been before. A tear slid slowly down her face before melting into the hard pillow her head rested on. He was special, so very special and she would make sure he knew that, he was one of the few who could save her from the self inflicted darkness that she surrounded herself with, he helped fill the empty space that resonated in her chest and she wanted to save him in the same way. H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A He knew she was awake, he’d felt the jolt run through her body as she had woken suddenly. He hadn’t been awake for long before her, he’d slept better than he could remember doing in a long time, in fact not since he had first moved in with Roman and finally felt safe from his family, he’d been able to reveal the truth to the older man and had his first true night of sleep without fear shadowing his dreams. His chest felt lighter knowing that Belle finally knew the truth, that she didn’t judge him for his past. At least that’s how he had felt fifteen minutes ago when she had first stirred but he was still waiting for her to speak rather than pretend that she was asleep like he knew she was doing. But he pushed that fear down as he thought about what he had learned about her last night, she needed time to process and that’s what he’d been doing. He couldn’t imagine any situation in which somebody wouldn’t want her, how anyone could willingly give her up or want rid of her. He was pretty sure he was addicted to her, that’s the only way he could make sense of his need to be around her, she dulled all the badness, and made him want to be better. He was less angry since he had been here which some might say was because of the counselling which in part it was but it was also because of her and her calming presence. Even when she was mad at him, shouting and screaming, telling him to leave her alone he never lost his temper and that was a huge step for him. She was helping him change for the better he owed her so much and he planned on showing her just how much he cared every second they got to spend together. If he had his way she would never feel neglected again, she would have no reason to feel sad. H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A H&A “Morning.” he whispered as he swept his lips gently along her jaw. Sighing at the feelings his ministrations were eliciting Belle turned to him. “How long have you been awake?” She asked before kissing him gently. “Morning.” She added shyly as he smiled at her. “Awhile.” He told her a smile playing at his mouth as relief swept through him; everything was still okay between them. “Me too,” She replied burying herself deeper into his arms. “I was just thinking.” “Yeah.” He responded as she confirmed his earlier suspicion. “Me too.” He repeated her previous line. “Processing.” Instead of answering him Belle reached up from her position against his chest and pulled his head gently towards hers kissing him soundly on the lips. Happily responding to her Aden flipped her under him giving her his full attention but broke apart from her suddenly as he heard a noise from the hallway outside. “Maybe it wouldn’t be the best idea to be caught in this position.” Belle proposed laughing at the look of concentration on Aden’s face as he strained to hear if anyone was approaching. “But I like this position.” He complained as he tried to kiss her again which she willingly obliged. “Yeah I mean Mattie will love it if we’re caught.” He told him which Aden merely raised an intrigued eyebrow at. “You know because she been planning our engagement.” She explained hoping she could hold back her laughter at his look of panic. “Engagement wha…?” He asked his voice breaking as the words left his mouth, deep worry lines forming on his face as he thought about what she had said. A new kind of fear he had never felt before was rising in his throat, what was she talking about engagement, it had only been a few months, what was Mattie at? he wondered. But then again Belle being all his didn’t sound so bad “You are so easy to scare!” She laughed as relief flooded his face at the realisation that she had been messing with him. “But I mean don’t object too quickly or anything!” She finished in mock offence. “Well I guess being stuck with you wouldn’t be too bad.” He joked laughing as she hit him on the shoulder. “Hey I’d be a great wife ill have you know.” She responded in fake anger. “I'm sure you would be.” he told her laughing at the affronted look on her face, she had started this. “Hey I can hear your sarcasm. It’s not like you’d be that great either.” She answered. “Neither of us have great examples to follow.” “Yeah but I’d say we’d do just fine.” He told her. “In fact we’d be fantastic.” “Yeah I think you’re right.” She smiled at him, she didn’t usually like to think about the future, but the idea of having Aden be part of hers made her feel good. “Okay this is getting a little weird out you go.” She told him but she was still smiling as she pushed him from her bed. “What no goodbye kiss?” He asked smiling cheekily as she grabbed his shirt and threw it at him. “Nuh uh I don’t think so.” She told him smiling at his playfulness. “Now out before someone catches you in here.” “No I don’t think so.” He told her sauntering towards the bed where she was sitting. “I think I should get a goodbye kiss.” “What did I tell you about thinking?” She demanded playfully. “That I'm really good at it?” He hazarded smiling brightly at her. “Oh you mean that I might strain myself because of all that effort I have to put into it?” “Yeah that would be it. Now come here.” She told him kissing him gently. “Actually maybe you’ve got the right idea with all that thinking seems good to me.” She finished breathily as she broke away from the deep kiss he’d given her. “I knew I had to be good at something!” He told her jokingly before leaving her room.
Taniya_K Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 Aw! Loved how they were both thinking about each other at the beginning. But that last bit... aw! Lol at their talk about being married. They would be fantastic! More soon please! Oh, and thanks for answering that question! xoxo
