You Deserve

  "Why in the hell are you still mooning over that asshole." he said angrily as he turned to see her wiping a tear from her cheek.
Gods it pissed him off to no end that she was still wanting that piece of shit who just turned around and walked away from her without a word. How could he even do it? There is no way he could ever hurt her. He sighed and then froze as he stared into her green eyes. They were sad but there was something else there as she looked at him. Something that he had been trying to not see for a long, long time.
Fuck. He was as selfish as that asshole was.
He kept her at arms length because he was friends with her and he did not want to cross that line but he knew the score. He knew that her situation was something different but hell, he wanted.....
His thoughts trailed off as he spun around quickly to look out the window lest she see the confusion in his eyes. Damn. Damn. He took a deep breath and made a decision.
He turned to look at her. Saw the dried tears on her face. Felt her pain radiate towards him laced with hope.
Yes. He made his decision.

"You deserve flowers on your doorstep and coffee in the morning. You deserve notes left on your dashboard and ice cream sundaes at 3am." he said softly. He crossed the room to kneel before her, his eyes pinned to hers.

"You deserve honesty every day and to be kissed every hour. You deserve to be reminded how beautiful you are."

His hands took hers in his and he smiled gently. He thrilled that her green eyes widened at his words and the pain that had been there had been replaced with joy.

"You deserve someone who loves you just as you are at this moment and is willing to take on whatever situation you present. All because you are worth it. Worth the effort. Worth the love."

He leaned in and pressed his lips to hers in their first kiss.

Yes it was true. Fireworks did explode when one kissed their soul mate.
