The only Hope

Hope’s pov:

“I told you how much I needed you… Didn’t you want to hear that? I need you. I need you Hope, and you need me.”

Korse was whispering in my ear. “You… can’t… outrun… me…” My body shivered, yet I was frozen. I couldn’t go anywhere.

Dracs were standing everywhere. One was holding a baby, a little girl. Was that… My little girl? Suddenly Frank, Ray and Mikey were pushed inside the room. Why were they…?

“Say goodbye to your friends.” Korse smiled as the Dracs pulled their guns and shot them in the head. I wanted to scream, but I couldn’t! I cried, it was hopeless.

Wait. Where was Gerard? I tried to look around me but Gerard was already in front of me, on his knees. Korse was standing behind him now. I could hear Franks voice.

“Gerard here has taken a special interest in you…” Then Gerard spoke.

“I didn’t want to get too attached. I’m sorry, I’m so, so sorry.”

Korse smiled. I tried to scream. He was going to kill him! Gerard, run! Tears were streaming down my face. NO!

Korse pulled the trigger. BAM!

I immediately sat up, I was covered in sweat. Fuck, that was an awful dream. I touched my cheeks. I really had been crying? I guess I do care… This was officially the worst dream ever…

I got up and felt that my bed was soaked, my clothes included. Oh Jesus…

I grabbed my towel, which was on the ground, and walked towards the bathroom. The entire diner was quiet and dark, guess they were still sleeping?

It had been 3 days since I had showered, so I guess I was allowed to.

I took off my clothes and threw them in a corner. I turned on the shower.

Heaven. I felt the warm water running down my face, stomach and eventually my legs. I washed myself quickly as I didn’t want to wake anyone up. Suddenly someone started knocking on the door.

“Hope! What are you doing!?” It was Gerard.

“I know, I’ll be done in a minute…” I rinsed the soap from my body and hair.

“Turn it off now!”

“I said I’ll be done in…” All of a sudden he busted the door, walked inside and went straight for the shower.

It scared the shit out of me and I started panting. I tried to cover my body, but it all went so fast.

Gerard turned off the shower, lowered his head and closed his eyes. “I said turn it off.” His hand was leaning against a wall. The sleeve was soaked.

He looked at me now. I felt my face going red and myself getting angry.

“W… What… The fuck is your problem!?” I stuttered.

“My question is: what is your problem? This diner is supposed to look abandoned, especially at night, when BLI patrols the most! We never. Shower. At night. During the day we’re all up and prepared, but not. At. Night.” He hissed, his voice low and hoarse.

“I…” I kept stuttering, fuck.

He turned around and threw me the towel. “Here.”

I immediately covered myself.

He picked up my clothes, but dropped them in the same second. “What the…” I guess he felt how wet they were.

He looked at me. “What happened?”

“I… I had a nightmare. A… A terrible dream.” I started shivering again. “You were in it… And Frank and Ray and Mikey.” I was panting now, remembering the dream.

“Oh Hope…” He sighed and looked at the ground. He became a lot nicer now.

“C’mon let’s get you to bed again. I’ll stay with you until you sleep.” We walked off to my room.

“But… My bed is soaked.” I mumbled.

Gerard picked up some clean clothes from the chair and handed them over to me. “Here, follow me.” I followed and we entered his room.

“You can sleep here, now get dressed.” He said softly. I nodded.

I dropped the towel before he had a chance to actually leave the room and I saw him looking at me. His eyes locked on my pale, thin body.

I just stood there for a second, naked, facing the man I think I hopelessly fell in love with. Yes, that was definitely the case. I didn’t care if he held a grudge. Hell, he could loathe me all he wants, but my feeling towards him was exactly the opposite. I loved this man and his slightly annoying facial expressions, quotes and behavior sometimes…

Before I knew it he had walked over to me and grabbed my waist. His hands felt so soft on my skin.

He came even closer and pressed his body against mine. His hands were trailing my spine and I shivered. He whispered in my ear.

“Don’t worry. Just tell me if you’re not comfortable with it, okay?” I nodded quickly.

His hands were now exploring the back of my body. First he moved them more down, but eventually he moved them up to my neck and hair. I felt his breath on my cheek and I started to breathe a little heavier. He touched my stomach and looked at it, of course he saw the huge bruise. He whispered again.

“You didn’t deserve this. God, you’re so fragile. So soft…” He kissed my neck, I moaned lightly. I felt him smile against my skin. He had found my spot.

“Can I kiss you?” He had lifted up his head to look me in the eye. God, those hazel eyes. I felt my body getting warmer.

“Y… Yes.” I said, holding my breath. I had never kissed before. Korse had never kissed me, ever. He only used me for other things…

Suddenly his lips crashed into mine, which woke me up from my thoughts about Korse.

His lips were so soft. I felt his tongue licking my bottom lip, he wanted in. I opened my mouth and he started brushing his tongue against mine. This kiss was not full of lust, it was full of love. He was so gentle and careful. I put my arms around his neck as the kiss got more passionate. I ran my fingers through his perfect, red hair. His tongue was swirling in my mouth now and I felt both our heartbeats increase.

He lifted me up, not breaking the kiss, and although I was still naked, I wrapped my legs around his waist. I felt through his pants he was already hard. I moaned when it touched my inner thy, very close to my entrance.

I felt him smile in the kiss. He definitely enjoyed it when I moaned. He broke away from the kiss, placed me on the bed and crawled on top of me. We were both panting.

“Do… Do you want me to continue?” He panted.

“God, yes.” I breathed out and he kissed me again. He then took off his jackets and shoes without breaking the kiss, but eventually he had to. I tugged his shirt and he got the hint. He pulled it over his head in a split-second as I unbuttoned his jeans.

Next thing I knew his jeans were also gone and there was nothing between our naked lower halves except the thin fabric of his boxershorts. I moaned as his excited lower half touched me again. He grinned and kissed me on the cheek, neck and further down. I looked down and saw his flawless body. He was leaning on his arms, which made me notice his already broad shoulders even more.

He trailed his kisses all the way to my sweetspot. I panted and shivered as he hit the spot with his tongue. I grabbed his hair as he continued. He then put two fingers inside me and I moaned again.

“Oh…” God, this felt good. He came back up, his fingers still inside me and whispered in my ear.

“Shhh, we don’t want to wake anybody…” I knew he was smiling as he knew I couldn’t control myself. He started moving his hand and I dug my fingers in his shoulders.

“G… Gerard…” I moaned. He leaned in and kissed me, his fingers increased their rhythm. I whimpered under his touch and there was nothing I could do to stop myself. He took his fingers out and pulled away from the kiss. Such a tease… He looked at me. No, I wasn’t scared this time. My eyes were filled with lust and so were his. We understood each other and he took off his boxershorts.

“Are you sure?”

“Have me right here, right now, please.” I panted, a little shocked of myself saying that... He shook his head.

“No, I won’t have you…” I looked at him with questioning eyes. “I’m going to make love to you.”

He kissed me again passionately as he carefully slipped inside me. “Oh God!” I moaned as I felt him between my legs. Our rhythm was like a perfect symphony, not too fast but also not too slow.

“Gerard, I love you.” I panted as I felt my climax building.

“God, I love you too, Hope.” He buried his head in my neck and kissed me there.

I moaned and felt like I was about to explode into the thousands of butterflies I felt in my stomach.

And at that same time, I heard him groan. He was also nearly there. We looked each other in the eyes as we climaxed. I tried to suppress my moans this time, but I just couldn’t.

Gerard fell onto the bed next to me, still panting from our moment together. But then again, so was I. We remained like that for two minutes or so, then he pulled me in for a hug and kissed me on the head.

“What was that about “not getting attached” again?” I giggled and I felt him smile too. His chest vibrated a bit.

“Just please promise me you won’t leave.” He sighed.

I couldn’t promise him anything, I was planning on leaving the first day I got here... But I just couldn’t tell him.

“I promise.”
