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

Most of the boys Roxanne had dated before didn't last for almost the exact same reasons none of Leo's previous girlfriends had lasted for him because Leo always had come before them and there had been many a time where she had canceled plans with them when Leo said he needed her. There had been one major difference with many of her now ex boyfriends, though. Most of them had used Roxy as their personal punching bag, leaving all sorts of scratches, cuts, bruises and burns on her. Just as Roxanne was and always would be the most important thing to him, Leo was the most important thing to her. He was perfect in her eyes and could do no wrong. Yes, really. Have I ever lied to my sexy boyfriend? Roxanne asked with a smile, thinking he would love to hear her call him her 'boyfriend'. She knew that he hated that goofy smile of his and his smile in general, but she also knew that he smiled a lot around her because she loved to see him smile and it made her happy. But, Roxanne also believed that when he smiled when the two of them were together they were genuine smiles because he was happy, not just ones with the purpose of pleasing her. When their kiss ended she pulled back far enough so that they could look into each others eyes. All of a sudden everything just felt so right, like everything had fallen into place exactly where it should have. When she saw Leo smile as he saw the sparkle from his eyes mirrored in her's Roxy couldn't help but smile. Roxy couldn't help but to wish that the moment would never end because of how perfect it was. I know you would have. She replied in a whisper. I know if I would have been brave enough to tell you how I felt that you never would have let any of them hurt me the way they did, because I would have been your Phoenix a very long time ago. Roxanne finished before listening to what Leo had to say about the girls he had dated in the past even though it was stuff she already knew. I know, you dated other girls for the same reason I tried to date other guys because the feelings you had for me would have driven you crazy otherwise. You felt I was something you couldn't have so you settled for less. She responded and from the raw emotion that showed in her Emerald Green eye it was clear that she understood exactly every emotion he had felt for her over the years. As I could never live without my lion. I laid awake many nights, wandering what could be between us. Roxy confessed to Leo before her eyes softened as she heard him laugh at her response to him asking her parents. Leo, my parents love you. They are fine with us being together. You and I both know they are always joking about us getting married one day and they have since we were little. She said, smiling. Indeed, she would do or say anything to make him feel better because when he was sad or upset, she was too. They had always mirrored each others emotions. As he held her close and met her half way for the kiss she smiled against his lips, closing her eyes as they shared the kiss and as he held her face between his hands, using his thumbs to caress her cheeks. When he moved his lips away from her's she opened her eyes to look at him, smiling when she heard him speak. I love you too, Leo. Much more than I even thought it was possible to love someone. Now that they were together Roxanne was noticing how much clearer everything was to her. Unlike before, she didn't find herself questioning herself about every action of Leo or every word that he said or about what they meant to him. Roxy simply knew that everything was now as it seemed between them and that they had always loved each other and always would. As they laid in her bed and Leo was holding her she found her mind wandering back to the day they had met, when they were just toddlers and how, even back then, they seemed to have some unbreakable bond binding them to each other. It had not been love at first sight for Roxanne back then, but she knew within a few days that Leo was the boy she was going to marry. But, if you are in the kitchen doing all the cooking I'll be bored and all alone. She said before kissing him. Roxy knew how Leo treated her, even before today he had always treated her like a princess, always offering to do things for her and such, never wanting her to lift a finger. Just like Leo, she wanted tonight to be perfect, and it seemed to be getting off to a great start. Roxanne knew Leo didn't have many friend aside from her and that his grandmother had tough him to cook everything from scratch. I'm not sure, what would my lion like for lunch? She asked, not bothering to protest when he said she would be the one to pick out the movie. Roxy already knew that wasn't a battle she was going to win and she knew for dinner she would have to pick what she wanted. When Leon kissed her nose she smiled. After lunch we could always go for a walk outside. She said and kissed him. Roxy had always loved winter.
