I felt myself at the edge of the orgasm and in seconds, I was literally swimming through bliss.
“Oh baby… I love to watch you come” Christian whispered.
I smiled at the roughness of his voice and he stilled, I knew he was having his own orgasm.
He pulled out after a while and I crashed against him. He kissed me almost desperately and trailed more kisses all over my face.
I pulled away from him and hopped down to straighten my dress.
He pulled a tissue paper from the side and cleaned himself up. As he dressed properly, I went to stand in front of the mirror to examine myself.
I combed through my hair with my fingers, thankfully, Christian hadn’t tousled it too much. My lipstick was gone completely, my mascara was just a little bit smeared. I took out some tissue and fixed it.
All the while, Christian was watching me.
“What?’ I asked with a smile.
“You’re beautiful ”
I felt the heat of the blush.
“Thank you” I threw the tissue in the waste basket and I opened the door and took a peek.
When I heard the sound of the drill, relief washed through me. I went to take a seat as if nothing happened.
The woman came out after about half an hour later.
“Here” she said handing me the stones.
“Oh my gosh, they’re more beautiful than they were in the pictures”
“I added some extra touch” she said proudly.
“You like them?” She asked.
“I love them”
“Great, I’ll start working on it. Thank you Mr Alexander, I saw the transfer you made”
She told Christian with a wide grin and I didn’t hear them discussing the price, I didn’t even know how much the rings would cost and I was certain he wouldn’t tell me.
He held out his hand and I took it. He led me to the car.
“Jen, there is this therapist I want you to see when we get back home”
I turned to ook at him and I frowned.
“I don’t need a therapist. Why would you think I need a therapist?”
“The nightmares, that’s just all”
“They’re just nightmares”
“No. They’re like torture”
“I’m fine”
“No, you’re not, they’re an indication that you’re still hung up on the memory from that night”
I sighed.
“I’m fine,
“I just have to talk with her. I don’t like seeing you like that, it hurts me”
“What therapist?”
“She’s really good friend of mine and I already spoke to her about you”
“What did you tell her?” I asked sharply, I don’t know why I felt betrayed, as if he was discussing me with one of his ex.
“Nothing specific. Just that you were having nightmares from memories. Sshe feels it’s trauma and she’s going to help you get through it”
“I don’t want to go, I’m fine”
“Baby…”
“No”
“Okay, it’s fine” he said and as if he was avoiding a fight, I felt petty. “But baby, if you ever change your mind, tell me”
I nodded my head.
“Come here”
I scooted over to where he was and laid my head on his chest, it was so comforting as he pulled me into his laps and wrapped his hand around me.
“Wake up baby”
My eyes shot open and I looked around to study the surroundings.
I was laying in bed but the last thing I remember was going into his arm, to cuddle.
“I must have fallen asleep” I said massaging my eyes with the back of my hand.
“Are you feeling okay?” He asked me.
“Yes. Thanks for carrying me in”
“Are you sure you’re fine”
“I am”
“It’s eight pm, you’ve been sleeping for about six hours now. You’ve been sleeping too much lately”
I plastered my best charming smile because I knew that tone, that was the tone that told me Christian was ready to take me to the hospital even if he had to strap me to the back of his car.
“I’m starving” I said as a distraction but I was actually starving. “I can eat a whale”
He stared at me, as if he wasn’t convinced at all but his need to constantly stuff me with food over took everything else.
“I’ll bring you something”
“I can come to the dining table” I said trying to stand up.
“Sit”
“Okay”
He left the room and returned with a full tray, I didn’t protest, I ate as if the living day light was sucked out of me while I was sleeping. He sat on the bed and watched me eat.
When I was done, I pushed the tray away and sank into the soft pillows. I looked at Christian and finally noticed he was dressed.
“Going somewhere?”
He nodded and crawled into bed and under the sheets with me and we cuddled.
“Kaylee is going to be here to keep you company. I have some branches here, I haven’t told you right?”
“No, but I figured. Those were your branch managers?”
“Mhmm. We’re having this fundraiser thing planned. It’s going to be a three day thing, you’ll come with me tomorrow” he snuggled into my hold and I didn’t want to hold him because I was scared I’d rumple his suit.
“I heard the security gate open ” Christian said after a while.
“Maybe it’s Kylee ”
After a minute, Kylee knocked on the bedroom door.
“Come in” Christian said.
When she walked in, she assessed everything.
“You’re going to be late ” Kylee said like a mother telling her child he’s going to be late for school.
Christian groaned and he pulled out and kissed me and climbed down.
“I love you” he said, gave me another kiss and he left.
“The both of you are so cute” she said and then retched but I knew she was just joking.
“You look pale” Kylee said picking the tray and putting it aside. She grabbed the remote and slipped under the covers.
“Did you hear me. You look pale”
“I’ve been sleeping to much lately, maybe that’s why”
She froze and stared at me, I could read her thoughts.
“I’m not pregnant Kylee” I said and gave her a little shove but she didn’t smiled to tell me she was convinced.
