Kassandra POV

Was this what it feels like to be in a fairytale? To have your prince in shining armour? Whenever and wherever you need him, they will be there by your side? Because if so. I've found my prince. The one that I am desperate to make mine. The man that I am willing to give up anything to be with for the rest of my life. These thoughts raced through my mind as our lips separated again, a small strand of our mixed saliva came off both our tongues. We'd been at this for an hour and a half and none of it was even remotely bad.

Ronin: "Let's take a little break. Even though I dont want to, I'm  getting sorta light headed."

He whispered into my ear. I agreed with him though. I didnt want to stop. This past hour and a half has been better than most of my life.

Me: "Ok, but not for too long."

We both took one to catch our breaths as an hour and a half make-out session can really wind a person. I was a bit to tired to keep my head up though so it crashed into the crook of his neck, my arms wrapped around his upper chest.

Me: "Please, dont let go of me?"

I never really let myself get this vulnerable with people. I would limit myself to an extent and would never go beyond that point. Family or friends, it doesnt matter, weaknesses can be deadly. But with Ronin, I dont feel the need to restrict myself. His lopsided smile, cheeky grin, slight dimples and the mischievous glint in his eyes excrete safety from them.

Ronin: "I will never let you go."

And he said something I will never forget. A phrase I never thought anyone would think of towards me. One that broke me down in utter happiness and joy.

Ronin: "My love."

Those two words brightened my clouded mind and mended the broken lens I saw the world through. Words that gave my near shattered heart meaning. 2, words, that sent shivers down my spine and made me burst into tears.

Me: "R-ronin."

I silently sobbed into his shirt hoping and praying that he meant his words. I tightened my grip on his chest and stuffed head further into his neck.

Ronin: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that."

He had the voice of a man with a broken heart. Did he think I didnt want this?

Me: "R-ronin."

I took my head out of his neck and shakily stabilized myself so he could see my shaky smile and glistening tears. And probably the snot running out of my nose.

Me: "I-I love you."

Is what I said to him before going in for a French kiss we had been practicing. He tensed at first but quickly loosened into it, swirling our tongues in each others mouths. My mind had gone blank. It became clouded again, but with love and joy this time.

Ronin Pov

I dont know why I was scared to tell her that. If it werent for her heartbeat and warmth coursing through my body, I probably wouldnt have told her at all. You might think that I should've told her before since we just had a long make out session and multiple kisses and. . . odd moments, specifically in the medical bed at school. But it was still frightening. We broke the kiss, I felt a wetness on my cheeks. I hadn't even noticed that I had started crying. I pulled her back into a hug that she immediately returned.

Me: "I will never let you go. Even if it causes me pain. Even if it nearly kills me. I will do everything that I can, to make you happy."

Was what I whispered into her ears while she shook in my arms. I was tired, physically and emotionally. So I grabbed a blanket from the luggage in the back. Luckily it was mine, and pulled it over us. She happily smiled and I gave her my new lopsided grin, apparently I had a dimple on that side. But I had one question to ask, before I left this love filled atmosphere.

Me: "Will you be mine?"

I could feel her face contort into a wide smile in the crook of my neck.

Kass: "YES! YES! YES!"

She silently gasped and I could feel my head grow hot. I could feel the odd faces and weird thoughts sent towards our direction.

A small price to pay for salvation.
