My Navy Seal II: Undeniable Attraction

NICK

I have asked her if she can go to a place that is safe and where he would not be able to find her. But then I can not help feeling a little bit nervous when she says that I will not be happy with where she will be going.

I try to act as calmly and normally as possible when I say to her.

"Try me…"

KIM

I can not believe that I have thought about going there again. But I know how serious the situation is and since he knows where my parents live and where I live, this would probably be the safest place.

I take a deep breath as I am about to tell him what I thought.

"Ben. I can go to Ben"

I feel my mouth drying as I say the words because Nick and I have not had "the talk" about our exes. I have met two of his exes and he has met one of mine. But Ben is a whole different story by itself.

NICK

When I hear she is talking about a guy I can not help as my guard is immediately up. I hope she is talking about a friend that is not interested in women. So, once again I try and keep as calm as possible when I say.

"And…who is Ben?"

I am driving back to base but I can not help looking at her face as she looks at the ground.

"It is an ex. We did not date for a long time but we parted as friends. I have talked to him a few times after we have broken up and we have sometimes leaned on each other when needed. I am sure that Anton will not be looking for me there as I am with you. I mean if you-"

I lift up my hand to make her stop talking. I do not get jealous easily and I never had a reason to feel jealous about any girl that I have dated before. But for some reason, I can not stop the jealousy that is filling my heart in its full capacity.

Of course, on the other hand, her reasoning is sound and if I want her to stay safe it would be probably there. Maybe not the kind of safe I was hoping for but safe from Anton. I can take her to the base but there is just too much going on and too many hoops to jump through. I can not wait to catch this bastard that has not only succeeded in scaring my fiance but now also driving her into another man's arms.

Then there is also the possibility that she might stop me when I want to kill him and I do not want her to see me that way. Then I feel her hand on my leg and I know in my heart that she is mine and nobody else's. I know that I can trust her. Of course, I do not know if I can trust him.

"You say you just dated for a little while? So, you did not really fall in love with him?"

KIM

I can see that this is very difficult for him and he is trying his best not to look too jealous. But it is clear to me that he is very jealous.

"There is nothing to worry about, Nick. We never clicked on that kind of level. The only one that I have ever clicked with on that kind of level, is you. And I am planning to spend the rest of my life with you"

I make sure to caress his leg as I am telling him this. I want him to know how I feel about him and how I do not feel anything for Ben.

NICK

I know deep in my mind that this is the right decision. Because no matter how good the Detective is that got the information for Anton, he will never think that she would go back to an ex when she is engaged.

"I know you are right. I think you have the best idea to stay safe. I know that I can trust you"

We then park at the base and I get out of the car to open the door for her. I take her hand and help her out of the car and then I feel her kiss me on my cheek. I look at her in surprise and then say.

"What was that for?"

"Just a little something from me to you so that you know that I am yours forever and that I love you more than anything"

I love the way that I feel when I am around her. She makes me a better person without even realizing what she is doing. It is these small things that she does that make me fall for her every day a little bit more.

It is as if she knows what is going on in my heart and then she comes with a bandage and fix it right up. She is not just a doctor of the body but also a doctor of my heart. I pull her close into me and then give her a kiss on her soft lips. Then I pull away and just look at her for a moment thinking how lucky I am to have her for the rest of my life.

"I love you too, Doc"

I take her hand and entwine my fingers with hers. We walk hand in hand to the door of the base and then I stop just before the door.

"I have to go in now and focus on getting that asshole and if I am honest with you, I struggle to be that soldier when I do not know that you are safe. I do not want you to watch me turn into a monster and that is the only reason that I believe it is the right choice to go to this…Ben character"

KIM

I watch him struggle as he says the words that come out of his mouth. These are probably the most words that he has said at once as he is a man of few words. So, for him to say these things to me must mean that it is very close to his heart.

I listen carefully to what he is saying and I understand his heart. I know that he wants to get to the guy and I know that he will probably kill him if he is allowed. I feel his anger as I am not happy with the fact that somebody stole my security in my own home and even in my car.

I also understand that he needs to protect me. I will not be the one that stands in his way when I know that he will do the right thing.

"You do not have to explain this to me, Nick. I know why I want you next to me always. Now…go and do not worry about me. I will let you know if anything happens but I am sure I will be safe with Ben"

I kiss him on his lips again and then turn around to go and make a phone call. As I walk away I can feel him staring at me.

NICK

The amount of emotions running through my heart is unbearable. She has this way of letting my heart ride a roller coaster every time she is near me. I watch her walk away after she has given me a passionate kiss that I will not forget quickly. Then she disappears from my sight and I shake my head to try and focus on my mission ahead.

I walk through the door and as I walk towards the guy behind the computer everyone stares at my torn clothes. I am just about to talk to the guy when the Admiral comes up walking to me. I quickly stand still and salute him.

"Master Chief?! What the hell happened to you?"

"Admiral, sir! I ran into a few obstacles when I visited Anton's house, sir"

"A few obstacles as in bombs?"

"Yes, sir"

"What are you going to do about it, Master Chief?"

"I think I have a lead, sir"

"Good, carry on and let me know if you need any help"

"Yes sir!"

I turn my attention back to the guy behind the computer and say.

"Can you get me that Detective Marks on the phone again?"

"Yes, sir"

I patiently wait as he gets the Detective on the phone. Then he hands the phone to me.

"What can I help you with Master Chief?"

"What can you help me with?? I will tell you what you can help me with…Thanks to you, my fiance's apartment is trashed. There was a bomb under her car and the address that you gave me was also rigged with a bomb..."

I hear him gasping on the other side of the phone. But I continue.

"…so what you can help me with? Get a meeting with Anton asap or I will make a meeting with you and you will be sorry"

"I...uh..."

"No uh's. I do not care what you need to do or lie about but just get it done and get it done now!"
