"Hello Donovan, how are you, it's been a while hasn't it?"

Her syrupy sweet tone suggested something entirely different to the reality of our acquaintance. I'm not new to the games some women played, not by a long shot, and if she thought I was going to let her hurt my girls' feelings with her bullshit she was sorely mistaken.

"Hi, uh, I forgot, what was your name again?"

She blushed bright red, not at all in the same way my baby blushes.

"It's Helen." Now she was huffy.

"Yeah, right, Helen, this is my girl Shania, thanks for seating us." I dismissed her as I sat my girl, who was trying hard not to laugh.

"You are so bad Donovan, that poor woman."

"She shouldn't have tried to disrespect you, that will never be acceptable to me."

"Are you always this attentive or is this an anomaly?"

I reached over the table and took her lips before answering her, knowing that all eyes were on us.

"With you, I'll always pay attention you can count on it."

Dinner was spectacular, we laughed we talked; we kissed. It was as though we were the only two people in the room, after a while even the whispers faded away and ceased to matter, we were so caught up in each other.

The years in between melted away as we got caught up. I was happy to see, that whatever the jerk had done, didn't have any lasting effect on her, I was also hoping I had something to do with that.

"You do know I'm completely in love with you don't you?" I admit I sideswiped her with that one, we had been staring into each other's eyes for a good two minutes, not saying anything, just enjoying each other, when I came at her out of left field.

I didn't give her a chance to answer; I just took her lips and sealed it with a kiss. I think I tasted her more than I tasted my meal, and had no doubt our love story would be bandied about in every corner of the cove come sunrise.

I finally released her lips and she sighed before looking at me blurry eyed. It gave me a kick to the gut to know I had that kind of effect on her.

Chapter 11

DONOVAN

"Donovan, l, you can't just say something like that and just...nothing."

"I don't need you to say it back to me Shania, not until you're ready, if you're ever ready. I just thought you should know; there's no point in beating around the bush is there? This way, at least you know where I stand.

I'm totally and completely in love with you. I always have been. It would make me the happiest man in the world if you felt the same, but my love for you have nothing to do with your feelings for me, do you understand what I'm saying?"

“I'm not sure..." she frowned in confusion.

"Simply put, it means that if you decide you could never love me, it wouldn't stop me from loving you, nothing ever could."

"Doesn't it scare you to put yourself out there like that, what if I used it against you?"

"My heart would never betray me like that. I know you're it for me. I have no problem waiting for you to catch up."

I knew what the prick had done to her. Seeing her here now though, I don't think he hurt her heart as much as it was her pride. Still, she might still be a bit tender from that ordeal. I can live with that, what I couldn't live with was her ever having any doubts about us.

Her and I have been in the making for almost ten years, maybe longer. I want her heart and love, more than I want my next breath, but when she gives it, I want her to be sure. If it takes everything I’ve got, I’ll spend the rest of my life proving to her just how much she means to me. It’s what she deserves after all.

"I've admired, adored and loved you from afar for a very long time love, there's no rush, you don't have to declare your undying love for me, take all the time you need, just know that at the end of it, is me."

"What if I told you that I've been harboring those same feelings for you as well?" She bit her lip and looked down at our joined hands. I had to take a minute to clear the lump from my throat, before I could answer her.

"Then I'd say I'm doubly blessed. I fell in love with the girl; I can't wait to get to know the woman. I'm going to enjoy getting to know you all over again; you with me?"

She nodded with a smile and we sealed it with another of those mind-blowing kisses. I had to stop myself from going too far; we were in a room full of people after all, so I pulled back.
