What's in a Man?{OPEN}

[Kaleb Robertson]

Kaleb sighed deeply before exhaling, he started to slowly remeber his pass to tell her the entire truth "Hopefully, nothing like mine." He said then he sat up again, " Chicago, before I came to Richmond, I lived in New York I was everything my parents wanted me to be, kind, loving and did what I was told. Then high school came, I though I met the girl of my life, I loved her, cared for and protected her. Then I met this guy named Gabriel and his gang and then I started to get into violence, sex, and drugs. And the thing is I was slightly enjoying it, the drive-bys, the women, the feeling of as if your owning the world. I didn't care what people thought about me anymore, all I cared about was the respect that I got. Then I lost the girl, not wanting to be with someone who could die any moment, but to be honest I didn't care at all, infact I was happy she was gone and outta my life.

All I cared about was myself, I didn't care about the people around me, not even my parents. Then one day, Gabriel came by and said that some other gang was trespassing on our turf, and I know I couldn't decline knowing that I would probably get killed as well. So I agreed to go, it was an half and hour before we found them, we waited for other gang members to show up, soon the whole gang was there. And a gun war started, and god we were starting to win, then I noticed more and more were coming and the group I was with was starting to drop like flies. I told Gabriel we needed to get out, he agreed then....Jesus, I told him not to go past him but he didn't listen to me, we drove past them he ended up getting shot in the head and me getting shot in the upper chest. The car flipped over number of times, before it finally stoped. I was in the hospital for months, finally when I got out my parents disowned me and gave me my inheritance and told me to get out and never come back. Then I came here hoping for a chance at life. He looked back at Chicago "Then you came, and I just don't wan to you mixing with a bad guy like me. But you just make me wanted. I understand if you don't want me to be your boyfriend but I care about you more then anything and I haven't felt like this in a long time He said softly to her.

Still looking concerned, Chicago saw him collect his thoughts to tell her his story. As he started speaking, she made sure she was listening intently, although that was abit hard when she kept getting lost in his eyes. They were so expressive. Everything he was feeling was right there for her to see, in those beautiful brown eyes.

Her eyes grew wide with concern as he told her about the gun fight. She would have been so scared if she had've been there. Subconciously, while he continued to speak, he hand made its way down his arm to his upper chest, tracing invisible patterns on the fabric of his shirt, wondering which side he had been shot on. She frowned when he mentioned about his parents disowning him, but thought it was nice that they at least gave him his inheritance and didnt deny him that. Then when he was talking about meeting her, she blushed. Still tracing patterns on his chest, she looked up at him and met his eyes, "Thank you for telling me what you did Kaleb. That cant have been easy, to be that honest about something you'd like to forget. But, I still want to be with you." she said softly.

[Kaleb Robertson]

Kaleb sighed deeply he was expecting her to walk away and never speak to him again, then he felt her hand along his chest. He felt her tracing patterns around his shirt and chest. He knew that Chicago was special in his eyes, he wanted her to be his for the rest of his life, and maybe after graduation he would ask her to spend the rest of his life with her. Kaleb turned around to look at Chicago again, "Chicago, I can already tell that your the girl for me." He said softly before leaning down again and gently kissing her lips again, this time he didn't pull after a mere few seconds, he wanted to show Chicago how muched he already love her.

[Deleted]

She gave Kaleb a smile of reassurance, as she continued drawing patterns on his shirt. He was such a special guy, she couldnt imagine not being with him at this point in time. With him she felt safe and secure. Valued and loved. Not just lusted after because of her looks.

Her breath caught when he spoke next "Really?" she managed to choke out. Then he leant down and kissed her again, so she guessed he meant it.

[Kaleb Robertson]

Kaleb let out a soft sigh seeing Chicago right there with him seem to relax him and he enjoyed her presence. He gently pulled from the kiss, so that their lips were only a few inches apart from eachother, "Yes I do. Trust me, I haven't felt this way in a very long time. He said softly, as he stroked her cheek with his hand. There was no way he could hurt Chicago, infact him hurting Chicago seemed pretty impossible to him. He kissed her again lovingly.

[Deleted]

Chicago was enjoying sitting there with him. And it wasnt just the kissing and deep an meaningful sessions. They could just sit there and not speak, and she'd still be comfortable. She felt relaxed when she was around him. She smiled softly as he pulled away once more to speak. "I beleive you." she said almost breathlessly. She could only hope that he didnt break her heart like Semper did. But she didnt think he would. All thoughts of being left broken hearted flew out of her mind as his lips descended on hers again. She smiled softly as she leant into his kiss.

[Kaleb Robertson]

Kaleb was telling the truth to her it has been a long time since he felt this way about anyone, the last time he felt this way was when he was back in New York before he joined the gang. He was glad Chicago was still giving him a chance after telling her his past he felt more at ease knowing he had to hide it, and hopefully never go back to that, but if he had to act like he had to when he was in a gang to protect Chicago he would do it. He continued to kiss her lips for a few more moments, before he kissed her cheek then down to her neck.

[Deleted]

She felt so special when she was with him. And she appreciated how hard it must have been for him to open up to her like that. To be honest, she mind his past. It had shaped him into who he was now and that was what was important. She kissed him back gently and then tilted her head to the side when he moved down her neck to give him more access, making her wavy hair fall over her shoulder.

[Kaleb Robertson]

He was going to make sure that Chicago felt loved and wanted by him, he was going to keep her happy no matter what, her skin was soft underneath his lips. Chicago would always be the first on his list no matter what, of course since they were togather now they might have those good days and bad days but Kaleb would come back to her, and hopefully she could come back to him, but he was going to do his best to make sure those bad days stay far away from them. He continued to kiss her neck, as he let his hand go down her arm then into her hand, he gently grasped her hand in a loving, caring manner.

[Deleted]

She felt all warm inside as he kissed her neck. She didnt remember feeling quite like this with Semper or Sage. Maybe something was different now. All she knew was that she was happy where she was at the present moment. Sure, they'd have their ups and downs, and the whole her being a demigoddess thing would always be there lurking over her shoulder...But every couple had their bad times and she planned to just work through everyday one at a time.

Her breath caught once more as he continued kissing her neck. Chicago was glad she was sitting down because she'd turn to jelly once he discovered her weak spot. She smiled as she felt his hand travel down her arm to catch hers. Entwining her fingers in his, she ran her thumb along the outline of his as he kept the neck kissing going.

[Kaleb Robertson]

Kaleb continued to gently kiss her neck she was definatly a stunning creature for someone her age. He felt her thumb trace along the outside of their clasp hand, he started to slowly move back to her lips gently nuzzling her jawline along the way, the feeling of her skin was like touching a baby, her skin was soft and smooth. He started to kiss her lips once more, a shiver went through his body as he felt their lips touch again. The feeling of their hands togather was amazing, it sent a jolt through his body. A smile formed on his face as he continued to kiss her, how did he get so lucky? He started to wonder.

[Deleted]

As Chicago felt him move back up her neck and nuzzle her jawline, a wave of guilt washed over her. He had opened up to her about his past, and although she couldnt tell him what she was, she could give him a heads up to her overemotional ways.

Hating to ruin the moment, she smiled as their lips touched again, but then pulled her head away slightly, breaking the kiss. Clearing her throat, she tried to think of the best way to word what she was going to say "Kaleb, I...Uhm, well..I should probably tell you some things about myself..." , hervoice trailed off as she watched his face for a reaction.

[Kaleb Robertson]

Kaleb thought he had ruin the moment when she pulled away but he was slightly shocked to hear how Chicago wanted to tell him something as well. What would a beautiful girl like Chicago have to hide? She seemed so innocent to him on the other hand people had secrets no matter what they looked like. He took his free hand and gently stroked her cheek with his hand, "What is it Chicago? He asked softly, only to wonder what could be bugging her.

[Deleted]

She lowered her eyes to the ground to attempt to collect her thoughts. Should she just blurt it all out? That was probably the best way to go about it. Although it was going to be hard either way.

Picking her words carefully, she spoke, continuing to focus on the grass below her. "Well...I thought you should probably know that I'm a very emotionally based person. Its a bit scary. Ask anyone." taking a deep breath she continued. "When I cry, I cry a lot. Sometimes that can turn into anger or slight hysteria. I dont normally swear but I swear when I get angry. Its like I have the normal teenage girl emotions but multiplied by like, 10....I have alot of close friends who are guys. They're all very over protective. ...and I've actually just come out of a relationship last week, so some people might still be a bit...hostile about that....." She trailed off. At least she had it out now, apart from the daughter of a Goddess thing, but that was staying under wraps.
