Thread: Best Friends Make The Best Lovers [XxMoonlightRomancexX & last_true_romantic]

I'm sure it won't take you that long to get me to see what it is you see every time you look at me. Roxanne reassured Leo with a smile. We have better ways to spend the rest of our lives together then you trying to convince me of something, after all. Roxy added, and with the added statement she unknowingly confirmed something for him that she did plan on spending the rest of her life with him, but, what wasn't shown in her statement was that there was still a small part of her that questioned wither Leo would really want to be with her for the rest of his life. In the back of her mind Roxanne had always told herself that even if the two of them did end up together some day, that he would eventually grow tired of her and they would become nothing but really good friends. When Roxy felt Leo's hand move up to her cheek and begin to stroke it she closed her eyes, letting them stay closed for a few minutes before forcing them open again to look up at her boyfriend. His attempt to distract her and to steer their conversation in another direction had worked, although probably not in the way Leo had hoped because they were soon back to talking about her exes. When the subject returned to the boys of her past it made her smile to see that even as they talked about the boys Leo hated with a passion, he was able to remain completely calm. In fact, he was so calm that even when Roxy would look into his eyes she didn't see any trace of anger within them. When he nodded and smiled as she granted him permission to kill them if any of them tried to do anything that Leo didn't approve of Roxanne couldn't help but smile again, and she couldn't help but to find herself amazed at the fact that Leo would rather get all of them thrown in jail and try to get them help rather than go after all of them himself for all the things he had done to her. When Leo spoke and silenced her she didn't try to fight him, Roxy simply put her head on his chest and looked up at him as he carried her down the bottom of the stairs, wanting to enjoy the moment they were sharing as looked at each other. Of course, if any of her exes were to try anything she wouldn't hesitate giving Leo her consent to do whatever the hell he wanted to them. Roxanne was completely naive as to what lengths Leo was willing to go to, to make sure she was protected from the guys that had already done so much harm to her. Truth be told, it was probably better off that way, too because if she knew Roxy would surely find some way to blame herself for his guilt. When she noticed he was smiling down at her as he was carrying her down the stairs she smiled up at him. She was glad that Leo knew her house so well because it meant she didn't constantly have to explain to him where everything was at. When he broke the silence by suggesting that he should use his food to try and fatten her up Roxy couldn't help but laugh at him. What made her let out the small laugh wasn't so much what he was saying as it was when he poked her in the belly playfully. Of course, before he had even assured her that he was only joking Roxanne knew he was just kidding. As are you. She said with a smile. The two of them were like yin and yang, where each of their faults lie was where the others strengths were and vice versa. Yet, at the same time they had so many of the same interests. When he leaned down and nuzzled his nose against her's she took the opportunity to kiss him. Roxy lifted her head from his chest just enough to plant a soft, sweet kiss upon his lips before letting her head fall back down onto his chest. When Leo said that he couldn't wait until until her parents got home it earned another laugh out of Roxanne and when she did stop laughing she flashed him a goofy smile as she looked up at him. If it is up to me I can tell you right now that you will be saying that on a few more occasions. At least you'll be saying it if you really do want me to be your girl forever. Roxanne said after her goofy smile faded and looking up into his eyes as she spoke, and when she was done speaking she flashed him a weak smile, only able to imagine the kind of happiness that would give him. When his smile widened to the goofy smile she adored once more as his hands rested upon her hips she couldn't help but be happy and she flashed him another smile, this one a bit bigger than her last. She was running her hands through his hair when she noticed him blushing from the kiss she had just give him and that made her smile once more. Why all the blushing, my love? Roxanne asked in a slightly teasing tone. She found it cute when she was able to make him blush and without an answer she guessed he was blushing because of how aggressive she was becoming with him, knowing just how much he loved it when she showed him his place a bit. When he cooed as she got the pain killers down with a drink of her soda she winced a bit, although this one wasn't as visible as her ones up stairs had been, and that was a good sign that the pain killers were already helping. Her reaction to seeing him blush after she gave him a peck on the lips was to give him another kiss and when he kissed her on the top of her head, almost as if it were some kind of reflex she moved her head to his chest. Then, when he began to take in the scent of her hair she just closed her eyes, listening to the steady beat of his heart as her head laid on his chest. A few minutes passed before she opened her eyes and lifted her head from his chest to look up into Leo's eyes. It seemed that listening to his steady, strong heart beat had calmed her because when her Emerald eyes looked into his eyes there wasn't any trace of anything but love and tranquility, there was also no trace of tension within her body. Now, that was a first for even Leo, because even up until the last time they had seen each other before today when she would look at him the tension, fear and every other emotion left in her by her exes was still present when he would look into her eyes. I'm sure you wouldn't each anything I put in front of you, my love. Roxanne challenged him before planting a soft kiss upon his lips. Like wise for her, grilled cheese and tomato soup reminded her of when he used to come over here when they were little so that the two of them could play. Indeed, they ate it quite often together as they were growing up, yet they never did grow tired of it. In fact, they ate it so often that at one point her mother threatened to stop making it for them, saying that they needed to try different kinds of foods so that they could learn what they did and didn't like. When he poked her nose she looked at him with a bit of a puzzled look upon her face. May I ask what that was for, sir? Roxanne asked, in an attempt to be serious, but in the end failing miserably when she busted out laughing as soon as she got the words out. When Roxanne heard his reaction to her calling him her 'Lion Prince' she was a little surprised that he didn't call her his 'Wolf Princess' in return. She wasn't hurt buy it, though because she figured that it was to come sooner or later. As he gathered the supplies he needed to prepared their lunch she watched quietly, even staying silent as he went on to prepared the meal and set the table for them. When he was done with preparing the soup and the heart shaped grilled cheese that were piled onto a plate Roxanne gently pulled Leo back over to her so that he was standing directly in front of her. I'm ready to eat when you are, but does 'Whatever you say' mean that my boyfriend will do whatever I say? Roxy asked, using the opening she saw to be a bit more dominant, aggressive and frisky with him. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When Leo and Roxanne were alerted that both her mother and father were home by the sights and sounds of two cars pulling into the drive way Roxy lifted her head from Leo's shoulder where it had been resting and pulled her eyes away from the television, along with whatever boring show they had turned on to kill time while they waited for her parents and turned her attention to the front door. While they waited for her parents to walk in, in the back of her mind Roxy wandered how her parents were going to react to her and Leo's news. The next thing she knew Leo had her by both of her hands and was helping her up off the couch and then leading her over to the door. When they both stopped a few feet from the door and Leo put his arm around Roxanne's waist she looked up at him and kissed him on the lips before her parents walked in the door, although she knew that once her mom and dad were told the news that neither of them would mind Leo and Roxanne kissing in front of them. Then, when her parents walked in she rolled her eyes at Leo. I'll go ahead and tell them, my love. She said to him and then took a deep breath before telling them. Leo and I are together.
