Hellbound With You (WN)

”I love you… ” he uttered, eyes incredibly intense. He never thought he would ever want to hear these three words from anyone ever again but this was like music to his ears, a melody that he wanted to listen to over and over again, especially because they came from her lips, a melody that he would never get tired of. He remembered how his entire being went dark and cold every time those women uttered those three words to him. Yet now, here he was, actually saying it back. He never thought it would tumble out so easily like that, the words spilling from his lips before he even realized it.

Suddenly, he let himself fall on the snow, lying right next to her as he stared at the sky. He wondered if this was normal. The extent of these emotions inside him were almost to the extreme, the effects of which were almost too scary to think about. What else could this thing make him do next? What else could this thing change in him next?

A quick soft chuckle echoed as his attention returned to his beautiful little lamb. She was staring back at him, eyes wide in surprise.

”Don ’t look at me like that, Abigail. That shocked me too! ” He told her and he stared at the sky again. ”It isn ’t that hard to say, it seems, ” he muttered like he just learned a vital new life lesson. His lower lip was trapped between his perfect teeth. He heaved a small sigh and was about to speak again when Abi suddenly embraced him.

Her grip on him was tight and her face was buried in his chest.

Alex realized she was sniffling. ”Abigail, are you crying again? ” he asked, trying to see her face. But Abigail didn ’t let him.

”I-it ’s because you ’re… ”

”Because I ’m what? ”

”Because… you ’ve become so sweet… ”

”… ”

Alex sat up and held her shoulders and made her look at him as he positioned her to straddle him.
