Forever And Always (Part Two)

Nineteen

Alexa's POV

I pulled out the small black coloured velvet box from my pocket and smiled up at the love of my life who currently looked like someone needs to pinch him.

"Felix." I started, "The first time we met, I thought that you were a jerk that flirts with every girl he sets his eyes on." He chuckled, making me smile. "But, you proved me wrong. You have now become an important part of my life. There are times when I'm afraid of leaving you or you leaving me. But then you turn back and return to me, embracing me in your arms, bringing me back home."

"Alexa..." He whispered, caressing my cheek.

"I love you, Felix. A lot. More than I love my life." I said but then frowned before correcting myself. "Wait, you are my life." I opened the box, revealing the silver ring with small white diamonds around it in a circle.

"It's not a proposal ring but, it's a promise ring. I promise to love you forever and always and also marry you and have kids with you like you said. I promise, I'll be with you as long as you want." I smiled at him and blushed. "Am I supposed to get on my knees now?" I raised my eyebrow. He chuckled and shook his head.

"No, you're not." He cupped my cheeks in his palms and smashed his lips on mine.

It had a different feeling. It had a promise of loving each other and being together, always. He nibbled on my bottom lip a few times before pulling me in a hug. When I stepped back to look him in the eye, he again placed his lips on mine, making me moan and smile.

When he pulled back, he kissed my forehead.

"I love you so much." He whispered to me. I slid the ring gracefully on his index finger and sighed in relief when it fitted perfectly. "It's beautiful." He said, looking at the ring. "Thank you so much."

"Do you wanna dance a little more?" He laughed but wrapped his arms around my waist, moving around with the slow rhythm of song.

Two days later,

"Why don't you have a tattoo?" I asked Felix, drawing circles on his naked chest, near his nipple.

His parents had gone out and Mike was at Emily's so we took up the space for today. We were currently laying naked in the bed after a heavy love making session.

"Um...you want me to get one?" He raised his eyebrow.

"No. You're fine this way." I kissed his chest. "But you can get one if you want to. I won't hold you back." He chuckled and pulled me over him.

"Yeah?" He asked, I nodded. "We will see." He smirked.

A knowing smirk.

"Can I ask you something?" I asked.

"You don't need to ask for permission, love." He said, stroking my hair.

"Did...you...um...did you have a girlfriend before me?" I blurt out, quickly hiding my face in his chest.

"Why do you ask?" He frowned.

"I'm just curious." I tell him.

"No. You're my very first girlfriend." He said with a smile and I would be lying if I say that didn't make me happy.

"Does that mean you gave me your virginity?" The words came out of mouth before I could stop them. He frowned again.

"No." Was his reply. "But, you're so much more beautiful and sexy than that hookup. I can assure you that." He smirked.

"Is that so?" I whispered, sliding my finger over his cheek. He nodded before chuckling and pecking my lips.

"You know," he started, "at the start of my highschool, my dad gave me a talk. A real talk."

"About?"

"Life. In the summer vacation of my eighth grade, some of my friends took me to a club. I took a few drinks with them and ended up in a bed with some girl. I don't even remember what happened but my father found out."

"Then?"

"Then, he told me not to be friends with those guys. He also told me to find someone who is worth my love. If I continue doing such hookups, I'll regret them when I find my love." He looked at me. "You're my love." I smiled and kissed his nose.

"I love you." I mumbled, hugging him. He sighed and nodded.

"I love you too, Alexa." I felt him kiss my head. "Now, can I ask you something?"

"Sure." I replied, quickly.

He looked serious. He got up, sitting straight, making me sit on his lap with covers covering my breasts. He then cupped my face in his hands and looked in my eyes as if searching something.

"What are you hiding from me?" He asked, making my eyes go wide.

"W-what a-are y-you talking about?" I stuttered.

"Don't lie, Alexa."

Full name for the second time? You're in deep shit.

"I-I'll tell you later." I tell him. He sighed, almost annoyed.

"Later when, Alexa? You have been saying that since...forever." his voice raised a little. I got up from his lap and stood up.

"Why are you yelling?" I frowned. He sighed and breathed in and out for a while.

"I'm not yelling. I'm just trying to tell you, if there's something that's bothering you, you should tell me." He stood up and walked towards me. "You promised me you'll be with me forever and love me and I promised you the same. But if one of us is gonna lie to the other, it's not gonna work, baby. You need to understand." He said with softened eyes.

I just kept my head down, thinking about everything.

"You know what, let's get dressed and talk downstairs in the living room." He said, bending down and handing me my pants. "I'll go and shower in the other bathroom."

I picked up my clothes and put them in the washing machine. I just grabbed a new set of bras and panties from Felix's cupboard which I had kept last time and went inside the shower.

After showering, I pulled on one of his shirts and my shorts before coming down stairs. Felix was making us coffee. He looked at me before motioning me to sit.

He placed a coffee cup in front of me before taking his own and sitting opposite to me. He didn't say anything and just drank his coffee. I sighed and drank my own.

After about an half hour of drowning in silence, he looked at me and sighed.

"You gonna tell me or not?" He asked. I sighed, holding my head with my hands, figuring out how to tell him the truth now.

"The...that...I....um.." I just couldn't form words. I heard him sighing in frustration. I looked up and he got up from his chair, about to leave. I just decided to blurt it out.

"I met Penelope..."
