“She was my lover once but did I love her? No I didn’t love her and wont ever. She never stirred emotions within me like you do…..damn it Cassie I’ve loved you since the day you first kissed me, whether it was just a friendly kiss on the cheek or not. But I knew I would never have a chance with you. I’m not some young man who’s untouched or has never touched a woman. Cassie I’ve touched but I’ve never loved. And by god you deserve someone better then me.”
Jason took hold of Cassie’s shoulders, turning her around to face him. He didn’t want to hurt her, he wanted to love her, to prove that someone actually wanted her as a woman, a lover, as herself…..as an equal. She was a wonderful woman but no one truly saw that.
“Jason please don’t joke around with me…….don’t be like everyone else, be my friend tonight and every other night. Don’t tell me you love me, enough people do. Prove it to me because for once I don’t wanna be just a body a person wants to ravage. I want to be seen as a woman……a person and someone’s equal,” Cassie screamed.
Anger was not the loveliest of emotions but nothing could destroy the beauty of the woman that stood before him. She wanted someone to prove that they loved her, she wanted someone to prove she was more to them then a body. Slowly he leaned closer to her as he ran a hand down her cheek.
“I love you Cassie and I will prove it to you.”
Before she could utter a word he pressed his lips to hers, taking in her sweet taste.
