Snippet #2457907

(I passed. Got a B in fact. Going through a rough time again...sorry.)

Beck Hades.

"At least if I'm broken I have you here with me to keep me together,"

Beck let out a soft chuckle before grasping the right side of her cheek with his warm index finger and thumb, tugging comically and gently. "I am. I promise." He told the brunette before dropping his tone into that of a more serious manner and meeting directly with her own pupils. "But...You have to help yourself too you know? You have to keep trying." He added quietly.

"Beck, I...I wish you would leave. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I know you care about these people. I know you just want to keep them safe, but I don't. I don't know them. I don't care about them. I care about you."

"That's like me telling you to abandon Jess because you had her too young," He said in something below a whisper. He did not plan to upset her but the statement was something she could understand and something she could understand. "As soon as I know things are in better hands I will leave, but right now its not the time." Beck explained. Leon was the man he wanted the others to trust as much as he did, he would do a better job and be more admirable anyway. Though it kind of depressed Beck that his whole existence would be shoved under the rug once he left. Leon would be king, he would have control, he would have the flats, he would even have Millie...

It was kind of weird thinking about that and he really did not have a clue what he felt at that point.

"If you get hurt, and by the way you've been talking - you will get hurt, I don't know what I'd do. You mean everything to me, Beck. I just wish you would realize I love..."

Wait. What. Wait.... hold it up. His eyes widened to the size of golf balls and his heart began pounding so hard in his chest that it was painful. He closed his eyes shut, squeezing together his eye lids before sharply letting the light back in. Not a dream.

"I just wish you would realize I love..."

"I love..."

"I don't want you getting hurt,"

Beck was pretty sure he did not just make up what he heard and began rubbing his bruised forehead in silence. Why did she not finish her sentence? Was she afraid? Or did she not mean it? He wanted to blurt out every last drop of the feelings he had ever had for her but Beck Hades was completely stunned by Elisa. The blonde remained silent, until her lips met with his neck and began caressing the sensitive flesh between his bones. He let out a mellow gasp as she ran along his jaw before stopping at his lips.

"I think I'd have to accept."

The youth flushed bright red before pulling away slowly and examining the expression on her face. She was not joking. At least she did not look like she was. "Elisa...Are you s..saying you'd sleep with me?" Beck asked again between pants to be sure. The girl he cared for, adored, loved more than anything had just consented to sex? The idea was crazy to him, and he really did not know how to take it. "You know..."

"I promised myself after Millie I'd not ever bed with another girl who I did not love and if she did not love me back. What do you think of that? Cause...I am still willing Elisa. I have not broke any promises. Would you be breaking my promise?"
