That was all it took for the girl to turn on her heels and take off running. Her grandmother knew her better than she knew herself, and she knew that no matter what happened with Alex he was her soulmate. She was terrified that he had already left, that he had actually listened to her when she told him to ｌｅａｖｅ and never come back.
Marlowe storms through the streets and towards the diner and thus Alex’s apartment. There! He was there, still, despite having a moving truck outside the building. “No!” She screams as she slams into his chest, arms circling around him tightly. “No, Alex. Don’t you dare. Don’t you dare get into that truck.”
His arms pull her closer to him, face buried on her chocolate locks. “Marls?” She was there, under the palms of his hands. Her perfume filled his nostrils as he breathes her in. “Why are you here?” He wasn’t upset, in fact, he was grateful for it. He just wanted to know why— he wanted to understand, and he wanted her to tell him that she still wanted him.
She was crying as she clutches him. “I love you, Alexander. I love ｙｏｕ. Please, don’t leave. I was angry, upset.. But you’re my ｓｏｕｌｍａｔｅ. I can’t lose you over one mistake. One thing shouldn’t tear us apart…” Small hands cup his face as she leans up on her toes to kiss both of his cheeks. “Please, Alex. I’m begging you.”
“Marlowe, I was only leaving because I thought that’s that you wanted. I would never willing leave you alone. You are my ｌｉｇｈｔ. My ｅｖｅｒｙｔｈｉｎｇ.” His hand rests just under her ear as he gazed into her eyes, leaning down to lightly kiss her. His heart was slowing down, and he was relaxing with her close proximity. This was what he needed.
“Just please.. Please, swear you’ll stop drinking… I can’t go through this again, Alexander. I can’t despite how much I love you, it would be the end of me.”
“Okay. Okay, Marls. I’ll try. I’ll try my best, I promise. I would do anything for you.” He presses their foreheads together as she slides her hands down his chest. She was still crying, but she didn’t care. She was simply in awe of the fact that he wasn’t leaving. He was still here; he loved her.
“Alex.” She smiles at him as she has an idea, chuckling softly. “Why don’t we move in together? I practically already live with you. Why not make it official?”
He tensed slightly, but then he nods at her. “I would adore that, Marley.. I even think it’ll help..”
