(Luna POV)
One Month Later...
It has been a month since I left Jacob. I missed him everyday. I rarely slept or ate. My heart just ached so much. During the duration of the month, I spent my time training to defeat my father for hurting my beloved. Which I eventually did with all the power in my body. He was my father, but he wasn't the man I knew in my childhood. He was a madman who needed to be stopped.
After all of this I decided it was time to return home... to Jacob. I wanted to be with him. I tried to protect him by staying away, but my heart couldn't take it anymore. I had to be with him.
So there I was...Standing in front of his home carrying my duffel bag full of clothes. I knocked on the door and waited and after a couple of minutes someone opened the door. It was his mother. She was indeed surprised seeing me and she quickly hugged me tight and let me enter the house. "Is he here?" I asked. "Yes he is. He has only left the room for work,but that's it. He doesn't want anyone to disturb him". I instantly felt terrible. "Can I see him. Please?" I asked and she nodded.
I slowly went up the stairs and down the hallway to the door of his room. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. Then a husky voice answered "Leave me alone." I felt bad and opened the door quietly. He was on the balcony with his back turned to me. I then knocked on the door again and he replied again "Leave me alone. I don't want to talk to anyone". " Not even me" I asked softly and his head lifted up and he turned to me. He stared at me in disbelief and slowly began to cry.
I waved to him and softly said "hi".He ran to me and hugged me tight. It was then when I smelt his scent of sweet apples that I began to cry. "I missed you so much" he said and I replied "I missed you too. I'm sorry I left. I just couldn't handle seeing you like that". "I don't care as long as you stay with me for good this time" he said and I nodded. I missed this so much. Having him in my arms again. I don't know how long we stood there hugging, but I didn't care as long as I was with him.
Eventually we released each other and we wiped away each other's tears. We just stayed there holding each other's hands with our for head against each other.
"Where have you been? Everybody has been searching for you all this time." he asked and I replied "All around. I have been training all this time just to be strong enough to kill the person who hurt you, my father. I killed him with all the power in my body. I'm a lot stronger now than before".He smiled at me and said " I knew you would. I saw all those people that took us,dead on the ground when I went to see what had happened...Okay no more talking. You must be tired. Let's go to bed". I just nodded and before I could react, Jacob picked me up and threw me over his shoulder and walked to the bed. He laid me on the bed and laid next to me. He arm wrapped around my waist and he pulled me close making sure I never leave his side again.
After a couple of hours of sleeping I realized I had to go to the bathroom. I gently lifted Jacob's arm from my waist trying not to wake him and quietly went to the bathroom. After using the bathroom, I went to the mirror and checked my face. My eyes were kind of puffy from the crying session we had in his room. I quickly, but quietly washed my face, but as I was drying my face I started to hear something coming from the bedroom. I looked to check and I saw Jacob tossing and turning in his sleep mumbling stuff. He was having a nightmare.
I ran to him and tried to wake him up, but he didn't want to wake up. He was all sweaty. He just kept on mumbling "Luna... NO.... Please.... NO". He was having a nightmare about me. I had to wake him up so I did the first thing that came to my head. I leaned forward and kissed his lips. I had given him my first kiss.
Seconds had passed and I notice that his body stopped moving. His eyes opened up and he slowly sat up and he just stared at me. Then he placed his hand on my cheek and pulled me back to his face and kissed me.
My hands were clutching on to his shirt as he kissed me gently moving his lips onto mine. I didn't move at first because I was in shock, but then began to kiss back. His one arm went around my waist while the other stayed on my face angling it.
He then broke off the kiss. I was about to talk when he kissed me again, but this time he slipped his tongue in my mouth. Deepening the kiss and making it more passionate.
After a couple of minutes he broke it off again. I was trying to to catch my breath while he stared at me with a big smile on his face. Then he finally spoke. "Wow. That was better than I imagined it". I smiled at him and linked my fingers with him. I then put my head on his chest and he pulled me closer. Then without realizing it, sleep took over us.
