Monte bit down on his tongue as he received her retort, he hadn't meant to cause such an uproar between the two of them so soon, not on the first night of their being back together. However just hearing Garrets name was more than enough to put him on edge about everything. He wouldn't tell her to stop being amiable with the guy, but he wasn't going to allow the guy to tell either of them what to do in their relationship.
He relaxed with her confessions and explanations and reached for her. "I'm sorry. I don't like him and I'd rather you make decisions for yourself about us than let him make them for you. We have a mutual hatred for one another, I think that's about the only thing we actually agree upon, and eventually he'll turn things around so that I'm the bad guy." Technically we both agree that I am a bad guy, but he's not so well behaved himself. He touched his fingers to her chin and turned her face toward him. "I want you to be happy too."

She wanted to pull away from him; slap him, hit him, something, anything! Aya glared at him when his gentle fingers touched her chin and forced her to face Monte. She bit her lip to keep from crying, to keep from acting out at him. She settled for putting her hands on her lap as she spoke in a low trembling voice. "Why do you keep doing this to us Monte? Didn't I just tell you that the decision to see you tonight was my own? Didn't I tell you that it was because I missed you, and not because he told me to?" She took a deep breath and finally pulled away from, wanting to stand up and actually walk out on him as she finally lost her temper and started yelling. "Do you actually think that I'd believe Garret over you? He's my friend, but he's not the person I love the most. YOU ARE! DO YOU REALLY THINK I'M THAT APATHETIC THAT I WOULD THINK OF YOU AS A BAD GUY?" She buried her face in her hands as angry tears unwillingly trickled down her cheeks. "If that's what you think of me, then what am I doing here? Pouring my heart out to you, telling you I'd rather have you over everyone else in the world. That loving you is just such a god-crazy feeling that I can't have anyone else? Believe me because I have fucking tried and failed."

"I..I know...hey...hey sorry." He got up on his knees and moved over to her, wrapping his arms around her, locking her in his embrace. "I'm sorry. I believe you, I heard you. I was just saying I don't want him influencing your decisions regarding us." He hugged her a little tighter and then loosened his hold on her, wiping the tears from her cheeks. "I want you more than anyone else in the world too. I just know how I am, I know you know how I am and you've got to admit I don't have the best track record when it comes to being a good guy. I've only been around you for an hour and I've already fucked things up. I'm sorry, please stop. Garret is your friend, he's like my mortal enemy, but I trust you to make judgments about what he says and does wisely and I shouldn't have said anything. Can we stop talking about Garret now? I won't say anything further about him ever again." He couldn't stand to lose her, not when he'd just won her back, not when they were so close to getting back to what they'd had a little over a year ago. If she decided he wasn't worth all the trouble and fights that would surely come with time and though she loved him, chose to return to her relationship with Dan, he'd be devastated. There really would be no point to living any longer.

She wanted to fight his embrace but her tantrum had her spent. Aya looked at him as he gently brushed her tears away and she bit her lip. "Sorry for yelling... Let's not talk about him anymore." She managed to whisper before dropping her head on his shoulder. Being in his arms calmed her down, made her feel safe and secure and she never wanted to let go of the feeling again. "I love you Monte... When all else fails, please remember that."

Monte kissed her forehead. "I'll remember it." He maneuvered so he could still hold her, but look up into her eyes. "I'm sorry for making you yell. I wish I could promise I wouldn't annoy you to the point of making you yell, but I think we both know I'm not capable of making that happen." He smiled, hoping to quell the tension. He searched her eyes and then kissed her mouth, his fingers returning to her cheeks.

She smiled softly at his effort and nodded. "No, I don't think it's possible for either of us." Aya closed her eyes when his mouth covered hers; his fingers lightly resting on her cheeks as she kissed him back. Their relationship wasn't perfect, that was for sure. But even if he made her cry a river or scream her heart out, Aya never felt more alive than when she was in his arms. And that's what mattered. Nothing else.

Monte wasn't willing to let the kiss end, too afraid that he'd cause another argument if his tongue wasn't occupied, so to keep it going, he gently lay her down on the quilts again. He knew a 'Home Run' wasn't in the cards tonight, but she'd go for more kissing right? He kept his hand on the small of her back and the other on her cheek, to keep himself from attempting anything else. It was getting harder the longer he was around her, but he was desperate to keep her and to let her break it off with Dan before attempting anything.

[Everytime I see my replies when I'm on the computer, I want to cry. Ugh. The length; shoot me between the eyes. ] A soft moan escaped her lips as she moved her hands to cup his cheeks. Aya said nothing when she felt him move her to her back; only opening her eyes and pulling away when she was out of breath. She smiled as she looked at him, questions in her eyes. "What was that for?" She lightly traced her thumbs across his cheeks and his chin before leaning close to him and kissing him again; she couldn't get enough of him, that was the truth. "I know it hasn't been long, but I've missed you so much." She managed to mutter as she pulled away again; she nibbled on her bruised bottom lip as she looked at him--really looked at him. As if she'd never see him again.

When the next opportunity came for him to speak he whispered his reply softly. "I get in trouble when my mouth isn't occupied and I haven't been allowed to kiss you for sometime. I'd hate to waste time talking and messing things up when I could be kissing you instead. I love you, I've missed you, and waiting to have you all to myself again is painstakingly hard." He licked his bottom lip, watching her eyes. "I know it's wrong what we're doing, but it's hard not to."

She smiled at him, a soft giggle passing her lips. "Well you did manage to keep from messing up those few sentences." Aya cupped his cheek and nodded albeit guiltily. "I know what you feel Monte; I know even this is wrong and unfair to Dan..." She sighed softly and bit her bottom lip. "I feel so selfish when I'm this happy with you. But I can't help myself." Aya looked into his eyes, hoping the answers to her problems could be found in their cool depths but to no avail. "You're all I've ever wanted."

Monte sighed and pressed a kiss to her cheek. "I didn't think I wanted anyone. I was on the verge of cutting myself off from all human contact, just so I'd only hurt a few people once and for all and then they could get on with their lives, but I was lying to myself. I wanted you. I want you and you're all I will ever want." He stared at her lips, longing to kiss them, but kept himself from giving into temptation. "I think I need to take you home." He kept his eyes locked on hers. "I don't want to, but we both need to be away from each other until you end things with Dan. I'm sure you're strong and you might be able to deal with not giving into temptation, but I can't. I'm gonna be honest, I'm fighting a boner right now and it's taking everything I have not to rip your clothes off."

She sat up slowly, biting her bottom lip as she tried her hardest not to laugh. Aya knew Monte was being serious and she found that incredibly sweet and endearing, but his blunt honesty in admitting his feelings just seemed so comical to her. She snorted and shook her head, trying still to remain calm but she knew she was losing the battle. Finally, she could control herself no longer and she burst into a raucous fit of giggles. "I'm... Sorry!" She managed to gasp out in between her laughter. When she finally managed to get a control of herself and had caught her breath, she glanced at Monte. For some reason, just looking at him as she wiped tears from the corners of her eyes, she knew that everything would be okay. "I'm sorry, I know you were serious when you said that." Aya managed a cheeky smile at him as she leaned close and cupped his cheek. "I love you Mondego; your brutal frankness, asshole-ish remarks and all."

Monte grinned as she fought hard against herself to stop laughing. He'd been completely serious about what he said, but even he knew it sounded funny coming from his lips. He was a little embarrassed, but didn't let it show. He placed his hand on the back of hers and moved her hand so he could kiss her palm. "I'm delighted that you can find something to love about me, now let's get you home before we do something you might regret." He kissed her fingers and got to his feet, pulling her to hers.

She couldn't help but grin back at him, her cheeks flushing when he lightly kissed her fingertips. Aya nodded and stood up when he pulled her to her feet, taking a step closer to him to kiss him briefly on the corner of his mouth. "Yeah let's get out of here before you do something you regret." When she pulled away, her eyes were sparkling in jest. "Of course there are still things to love about you."

Monte put a hand on his chest and feigned almost passing out. "You really think I could do anything with you that I'd regret? Not a chance. Letting you go is about it." He wanted to wrap his arms around her trim waist and pull her in for a real kiss, but he knew himself well enough to know he wouldn't stop there, her teasing kiss to the corner of his mouth was hard enough to fight off.
"You know." He stopped walking, turning so he was directly in front of her. "There is this wonderful little device called a cellular telephone and if you punch in the right combination of numbers and push this little green button..." He pulled her cell phone out of whatever pocket it was in and flipped through her contacts until Danian Arthur was highlighted. "You could have him on the phone in roughly fifteen seconds or less and we wouldn't have to wait..." He waggled the phone in front of her, knowing full well what he was insinuating was pure evil.
