Chapter 80: [Bonus ]Boyfriend

"Shss....don't blame yourself Angel. You saved yourself and if you hadn't killed him, I would have done it myself." Atlas pulled away from her and touched her cheeks with his hand, wiping away any traces of tears on her face. He gazed into her eyes and furrowed his brows when he saw the emotion fleeting in her eyes. He had seen the same thing before.

Guilt.

"Don't feel guilty Angel. You did what you had to do and I'm proud of you." Atlas whispered.

"But I-I-why are you okay with being with a woman who has blood on her hands..." Her voice trailed off and her face doubtlessly turned crimson as her eyes dropped to her lap where her hands now fidgeted in nervousness.

Atlas shrugged, "I don't mind honestly but I prefer to be the one whose hands would be stain with the blood. "

Meredith took a deep breath and looked up at Atlas, her hazel eyes were so anguished he felt his heart being crushed.

"I don't think I would ever forgive myself. My hands are tainted with blood and they will forever haunt me, nothing I do will ever change that."

Atlas nodded in understanding, "Hmm but the best way to overcome your guilt is always ask yourself, was it worth it? if yes then you don't have beat yourself over it."

"At times I think you're too good for me, Atlas. I don't deserve you."

Atlas leaned down and brushed a kiss on the tip of her nose before touching his forehead with hers.

"You deserve the world Angel, not just me. Also, you know I'm not a good man Angel. You haven't seen the bad side of me yet."

Meredith pressed a kiss on his chin and slid her fingers through his hair, "Then I guess we are both sinners."

Atlas smiled and traced his thumb across her lower lips, "Hmm. You're mine to protect Angel. You don't have to be scared anymore. No one is going to hurt you."

Atlas whispered, pulling Meredith into the warmth of his body. Meredith melted into him as he pulled her close to him, his hand pushing her head onto his chest so that she could hear the way his heart beat powerfully for her.

"You know you're not alone anymore and I'm not leaving you. We would overcome everything together. "

Meredith was at a loss for words. The way he had taken the whole situation without judging her and assured her he was going to be there for her made everything seemed like a dream.

Every girl always wishes for a hero to come save her and make her feel like princess but she never thought she would find her own hero in a twisted villain.

"Although I like holding you in my arms, I think it's time for you to eat and take your medicine." Atlas said and pulled away from her.

Meredith nodded, "For someone who is supposed to cruel and twisted, you sure are quite romantic and the perfect bo-" She stopped the words from her mouth before Atlas could catch t it. She knew they hadn't reached that point yet.

Atlas chuckled, "Only for you love, only for you."

He brushed her hand behind her ear as his hand caressed her cheeks. Meredith looked up at him, taking her time as she drawn into his features. His flawless, perfect face.

His eyes which were her favorite thing about him. Eyes which look at her like she was the most attractive woman he had ever seen. He was everything she hoped for in a man. Atlas was the most beautiful man she has ever met and he kept surprising her.

"You're so beautiful," Meredith whispered.

"That's your line to hit on me?"

Meredith broke out into giggles and nodded, "Yeah…is it working?"

Atlas winked at her, "It's hard to reject a beautiful woman and I'm fucking easy."

Meredith chuckled. It's funny how he was able to change her mood with just a few words.

"I like seeing you smile and I would do anything to see you smile every day, every hour, every minute, every second of your life."

Atlas said and crushed his lips against hers. He kissed her lips, her face, her eyes and the shinning tears on her cheeks. He kissed her like never before conveying all the words he wanted to say into it.

They pulled away and Meredith smiled at him.

"Thank you for everything."

"No. thank you for coming in my life. "

Meredith beamed at his words. It was simple and sweet but it made her stomach flutter with butterflies.

"Atlas…."

"Yes dear."

"That…."

Meredith blushed and knotted her fingers.

"What Angel, just tell me."

"Will you be my boyfriend?" Meredith said in one breath and closed her eyes in embarrassment. The flower of shame tainting her cheeks. If he wouldn't ask her out, she would do it herself. She nearly died and she wasn't taking chances again. Meredith wanted to claim him as hers, only hers.

Silence…dead…silence fell in the room. Seconds passed without him saying anything.

Meredith slowly opened her eyes and her heart lurched.

"That….I'm…just..kidding. " She let out an awkward smile and pulled away from him.

She got down from the bed and scratch an invisible itch on her nose.

Atlas was still sitting in daze.

"That I'm going to the kitchen…see you there?"

Meredith said awkwardly but Atlas still didn't answer her.

She bit her lips as she scolded herself. Stupid Merri. Why did you have to ruin the mood?!

"Meredith!" Atlas called her when she reached the door.

She stopped and turned to look at him.

"Yes?" She blinked at him, fidgeting with her hands.

Atlas stood up from the bed and walked towards her.

"What did you just ask me?" He asked her, his eyes glinting with mischievousness.

"I'm going to the kitchen?"

"No before that."

"Ah…I'm just kidding…."

"Not that one" Atlas sighed,

"Will you be my boyfriend?"

The corners of Atlas's lips curled upwards into a smile.

"Yes, I will be your boyfriend."

Meredith blinked and opened her mouth as his words rang in her ears.

"Huh?"

Atlas shook his head helplessly, "I will be your boyfriend. I'm your responsibility from today. Please take good care of me, girlfriend."

An amused expression quirked up the side of his mouth as he stared at the shock look on her face.

"Dear girlfriend won't you say anything?" He teased.

Meredith blushed and a wide smile spread across her face.

"Kiss me." She ordered and he did.

He kissed her like she was the oxygen he needed to survive.
