CHAPTER 46
LIZ P.O.V
I’m lying down on my couch watching television.
I just keep thinking about last night.
I keep thinking about hat Max’s father said and I just want to crawl into a whole and die.
DING DONG
I hear the door bell and get up to answer it.
“Delivery for Ms Parker” I see a delivery guy say.
“I’m Ms Parker” I say wondering what’s going on.
“Sign her Miss” he says and I do.
I see 12 other men with black suits walk in and place 12 bundles of white roses all over the place.
I feel tears stinging my eyes.
Then I turn to see the 12 guys start singing.
Oh My God … I listen as they sing.
There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
The light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh,
The more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain,
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
Baby, to me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
won’t you tell me is that healthy, baby?
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
stranger it feels, yeah.
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey,
I've been kissed by a rose on the grey,
I've been kissed by a rose
...And if I should fall, at all
I've been kissed by a rose
There is so much a man can tell you,
So much he can say.
You remain
My power, my pleasure, my pain.
To me you're like a growing addiction that I can't deny
Won't you tell me is that healthy, baby.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
the light that you shine can be seen.
Baby,
I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
Stranger it feels, yeah
Now that your rose is in bloom,
A light hits the gloom on the grey.
Yes I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, the more I get of you
stranger it feels, yeah.
Now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey,
As the song finishes I feel all the tears running down my face.
The singers turn to leave just as I see Max step out from behind them.
“I hope I did well, I heard you say it was your all time favourite song” he says and I nod.
“It is” I say wiping the tears.
“I thought you would be with Tess” I say looking up at me as he stands in front of me.
“Why would you think that?” he asks.
“I called you yesterday and your father answered the phone, he told me to stop calling because you had moved on with Tess and that was the way it’s suppose to be, he said that I’m not in you class and that you should be dating someone with money” I manage to get out with a sob.
I didn’t know he says as he closes the door.
He looks pretty pissed and I wouldn’t like to be his father.
“Liz, I’m not back with Tess and I wasn’t with her last night I was with the guys, they took me to the bar so I could take my mind of off you, but it didn’t work” he says and I look up at him.
“I saw Tess there and I left straight away” he adds and I sigh in relief.
“Liz, I came here because I need to explain to you why I didn’t tell you that I was rich” he says and I nod.
Not really knowing what to say.
“I didn’t tell you that I was a millionaire because when I was with you I didn’t feel like I was, I felt like I was normal, like I belonged” he starts.
And I feel myself start to tear up again.
“I didn’t want you to think that I was some rich bastard like my dad, I wanted you to see the real me, and not to jump to a conclusion because of my bank book” he says.
I nod wanting him to continue.
“I never once thought that you were after my money, I knew you were different Liz but I was scared that you would hate me” he says and I see a single tear slip from his eye.
“I never wanted to hurt you, because I loved you and I still do” I sigh in relief.
When I hear him say that he still loves me I feel myself live again because I know that I still have a chance and I didn’t loose him.
“Liz the day you found out was the day I was going to tell you, I never wanted this to happen, I never wanted to loose you” I see another tear followed by another.
“But if you don’t want me back then …” that’s all I need to hear before I jump into his arms and kiss him.
“Max I love you too, I’m so sorry I over reacted, but you don’t ever have to lie to me again, I’m here and I’m not going anywhere” I say and I see him smile as he kisses me again.
“So we’re all good, no more lonely nights?” he asks and I smile as I nod.
“No more lonely nights”
“So I guess all we have to do now is tell your father” I say as I pull away slightly.
“Yeah I guess” he says as he lifts me up and I wrap my legs around his waist as he carries me to my bedroom, where we spend all night making love and making up for lost time…
