Welcome to Gaia! ::

Holding Ianna tight afraid to let go of her Malen shut his eyes and cursed softly . He was scaring her which was the last thing he'd ever wanted to do. "I can't really explain Ianna all i know is that it doesn't matter that we've barely met simply the fact that during out meeting something happened, something that make me need to be around you to see you smile to hear you laugh. He paused for a moment struggling to get the words out " If , if you can't deal with that I'll leave I'll check in regularly with Kishi until she's old enough to visit on her own and you won't ever have to be near me again. Please Ianna trust me when i say i could never want to upset you like i am now." He waited for her answer ever second an infinity.

Carrying Ianna back over to the side of the fountain her carefully placed her on the edge again. Right now he didn't feel steady enough to support her, even though he hadn't wanted to let go of her." He smiled at her " I can live with like, heck I can live with anything that isn't hate. I fell honored to be the first person you've liked Ianna and if that means taking wee baby steps in figuring out if more than like is possible so be it". She didn't hate him and so he could wait and have patience and many cold showers.

Sucking in a deep breathe Malen just started at Ianna for a moment. she wanted him to kiss her, she only maybe liked him and wanted him to kiss her. This fact assured him of two things, one that he did not despite his previous thinking understand women ad two that Ianna really was one of a kind. Who else could capture his heart and yet be so innocent and trusting." whatever you desire" he whispered softly before moving closer ,pulling her gently to him and letting his lips caress hers. he mind went blank then lost in a sea of euphoria.of euphoria.

Heat flowed through Malen's body as he would an arm behind Ianna's head and pulled her a bit closer deepening the kiss. If the gods he prayed to were listening they'd know he was asking time to stop forever. If he could hold Ianna and kiss her forever just like this he'd never want anything else he swore .For the first time in his life Malen's thoughts of his future with a woman were not focused on the bedroom but on how he could make her happy and keep her from ever wanting him to leave. He knew love and faith were powerful with the ability to shut off the rational mind but he didn't care. Right now it didn't matte r to him that tomorrow he could be getting death threats from some rich Mafia family because he'd locked away their prize son. It didn't matter that he had a pretty colorful past , right now nothing mattered except the fact that he was in love.

Malen looked at her with concern and internally swore he should have been more carefully with her. still he couldn't get too mad , she'd been responding to him and so nicely even now his lips were burning from the contact." are you Ok he asked softly " his eyes still filled with concern but a grin very evident on his face.

Malen let his lips brush Ianna's briefly before pulling back, all he freezing cold water in the world wasn't going to help him if this carried on. " Mm i know it's so confusing but wonderful, and I'd love to keep kissing you but if we did I'd be " He stopped to think of way to phrase it. " I'd be different more edgy and with a stronger inclination to loose control and possible hurt you and I don't want to do that, I want things to be wonderful for you always" He knew that had sounded strange and sappy but right now his body and brain were saying two different things and he had little control over either.

Malen gave a shrug and a soft smile " Epiphanies such as those in romance novels are rare my dear." He reached out and ran his fingers through her he hair craving some from of contact with her ." I can't explain it for you or I would. For me there a simply knowing deep inside that when I hold you and kiss you I feel right ,like no matter how happy anything else in life has made me you make me happier because we belong together".
