QUIET NEW YEARS - LANCE <3

[addison sophia breslin]

No, that was not how he was supposed to take that message. As he heard it Kennedy had been watching him and as she could see the sadness pour across his face she just let out a sigh. A message that had made her so happy seemed to make him miserable, had he never wished he would have said those things to her? When he shut the phone and she got it back she slipped it into her pocket and walked over to him, the sadness more present then ever in his eyes as she looked up into them with that bright smile of yours. "That message is not one to be sad about, that message was just what I needed." She had thought a few times about what would have happened if he would have been killed that night, she honestly wouldn't know what she would do. That message would have killed her inside, she was just thankful he felt better after the accident now.

"I don't mind Lance, it's nice to hear them no matter what." Yes she could hear the slurring of the words but as she listened to it she did not think about him being drunk. She knew it had been her fault that he had drank so she did not hold that against him. "I loved hearing those words from you, I think it was after that message that I realized that we'd be together one day. Probably not today, maybe not tomorrow, but you and I were just meant to be. Sorry to inform you but you're stuck with me Lance Wright," She said with a grin as she leaned up and kissed him slowly, her lips daring not to leave his as she'd hated to see him so depressed. She did break the kiss because right now she had thought he would want to talk to her, especially after something like that message.

She backed up two steps and looked into his eyes as she took both of his hands into hers and placed them at her sides. "So Lance, if I ask you a question right now are you going to give me an honest answer?" She asked being ultimately as serious as she could be. She took a step closer to him not breaking eye contact at all as she kept his hands planted right where she had wanted them to be, right now she had not given him much control at all. "Does it scare you that I know the truth, or does it give you this sense of freedom from restraint?" she knew how hard it had been to hold feelings in for so long, so of course if the truth had been out there she would feel so much relief. "I think that it's about time that I come clean, just to make things even so here goes. Lance Wright, I have been madly in love with you since that first time we ran out of school before the bell and spent that entire rainy day out at the caves at the beach. Remember that, we were both freezing but we did not want to leave we were having too much fun just hanging out. You have made me happier than I could have ever imagined, I have the most beautiful baby boy and his father, well everyone knows he's absolutely gorgeous. I could tell you I hate you fifty million times and I would be lying each and every one of them, I could never hate you. I will probably always love you, Lance, and no matter how many times we fight i'm sure we'll be together one day." Why on earth did she just tell him all of that? She didn't mind though, it had been the truth and she needed to let him know after what he had told her

Lance felt terrible that he was so pathetic. He was so afraid of reaction from this woman that he kept all his true feelings pent up inside of him. He couldn't come clean with her because if she rejected him he wouldn't know what to do with himself. He was so madly in love with her that if rejection came his way he would never be the same. As she looked at him with a smile that could light up a room he couldn't help but feel a small smile tug at his lips. He still felt the sadness and it never faded from his eyes. "Well i'm glad I could make you happy," that was honestly all he could say because he felt so pathetic no other woman had had this effect on him before. With all his other girlfriends he could be strong and confident. With Kennedy he wanted everything to go perfect though he didn't want to face any harshness with her. It was complicated as usual with them.

He avoided eye contact with her his mind still going over the night. Flashbacks were coming back to him and the whole drive finally pieced itself together. The smile came to his lips this time genuinely as she spoke about them being together. Now those were the words he needed to hear. To know that she cared deeply about him too. He kissed her back slowly letting the sadness fade away. He needed to see the bright side to this situation instead of dwelling on the smaller details. "Well i'm glad to hear that Kenn," he said softly as their lips parted for a moment. He hadn't used her nickname in so long but it just came back naturally.

He listened intently as she asked her question, "I honestly think i'm afraid of any form of rejection from you. I'm glad that you know the truth i've wanted you to know all those things for the longest times. I've just been afraid that my feelings would seem insincere or drive you even further from me. I love you. I'm in love with you Kennedy Adams and i'm sorry that it's taken me so long to tell you." He said quietly letting her know exactly how he felt because he felt a little more confident with her now that he knew she had feelings for him as well. He placed his hands in his pockets as he stood there listening to how she loved him.

As she talked about that day that they spent together back in high school a grin appeared on his lips. "That was an amazing day," he said softly as the memories came back to him. When he heard the words that she loved him he wrapped her up in his arms as his lips came crashing down upon hers. The feelings he was undergoing at the moment were difficult to explain but amazing at the same time. To finally hear those words fall from her lips was something he had been waiting to hear for the longest time. He was so glad that tonight was going so smoothly in a certain sense.

Kennedy could not begin to imagine tonight going as well as it had been for the both of them. It was amazing that the two were getting along and sharing such feelings when usually they were fighting and at each others throats most of the time. She loved tonight, but as he finally told her that he had loved her she just had to look away to take it all in. She wanted to comprehend what he had been saying, hearing it plastered on the voice message had been one thing that she had loved, but he had taken it to a whole new height when he had said something about it to her in person. Hearing it coming from his lips, actually seeing them move to perfect each word as it was brought into the surrounding air, it was like a damn drug for her as her eyes came to focus on his lips hanging on what had been coming from them.

She was thankful that she had not been asked for much in return after she had let him in on her feelings about the two of them, and instead his lips crashed against her as a good sign that their exchange of words had been done for the timebeing. Honestly what more could you say after someone had said I love you and such after so long trying to hide it? Her lips raced to give him just as much passion and force as she kissed him back, her arms wrapping around his shoulders and pulling him closer as she did not want a single breathe of air between them. Even pressed up against him so tight like this made her feel that they were too far apart, even if that had made no sense. Passion mixed with pleasure pumped through each vein throughout her entire body as she could feel herself getting swept away to a place that he had brought her to so many times during high school.

She had to stop herself as she knew that there would be a certain point she would get and her addiction to him would take over causing her to try to push the envelope further, and considering where they had been and how they had just started talking nicely to one another she did not want to even think about trying to do something like that. She had to get away from him and calm her raging body down as she wiggled free from his grip and walked across the clearing leaning against another tall standing tree that had been there. She let her head drop between her shoulders as she took deep breathes calming herself down from the excitement of having their bodies so close together. She knew she must have looked like a fool as she had to do that but she couldn't help herself, being away from him so long had just done something to her and with even the slightest touch he could send her hormones for a whirl. She mouthed a quick wow to herself as she closed her eyes as she felt like the ground below her had been starting to spin. She grinned though having not felt that good in a while, he had been a drug for her without pumping anything illegal into her veins.

She could feel her body just starting to calm down as she felt a slight breeze blow across her, the slightly warmer body having shivered as she stood straight up and started to walk freely across the clearing again. "Okay we seriously can't keep doing that, I might miss my countdown to the new year." She wasn't even sure what time it had been or anything, everything seemed to escape her when her and Lance had exchanged their I love you's, in one way or another.[/b][/size]
