1933words
"I am sorry," I apologize feeling embarrassed and guilty.
"Oh no, that wasn't your fault, Tessy…" He holds me in his arms and caresses my back to comfort me. "I am sorry." He says under his breath that is very low but still, somehow I was able to hear it.
Why is he sorry? I thought.
He gently puts me on his lap and then starts pouring oil in my head, very slowly and gently he massage my head and the way he was moving his hand I can tell that he has never massaged anyone in his life.
I feel warmth in my heart looking at my husband's concern for me. I didn't know when I fall asleep on his lap and later he places me on the pillow while embracing me in his strong arms.
I sleep peacefully in his arms, my mind feels at ease and so as my body.
****
It's been a week since the incident of my drunk state. I am doing very much fine now, my husband takes care of me a lot. Ann has also changed a few things in my diet and I am happy, Andrew daily gives me a few designs to work on.
I feel busy with this little work and at night, I and Andrew would discuss the designs. He has been very understanding and caring, I don't remember what happened that night but whatever it was it has changed Andrew I see fear in his eyes.
Fear of losing me, I guess?
"Could you please check these accounts and bring me a tea later?" My husband asks politely when I just stand on my feet after finishing the work of designs. "Ok," I smile at him and he returns it while handing me the file.
"I'll do it in my room," I tell him, I get very tired from sitting on the sofa for a long time while my husband sits on his chair behind his desk.
"As you like, Tessy." He says, his eyes still focusing on the laptop.
I go back to my room and change into my nightdress, I feel good after changing the clothes, and then I start checking the list that Andrew has given me of accounts. I feel sleepy and without knowing I fall asleep.
By the time, I open my eyes, it already gets late. I quickly walk to the kitchen and prepare tea for my husband, he must be waiting for me.
I walk back to my floor hastily, pick up the files and then enter the study with a flush face. "I am so sorry… I fell asleep… I didn't mean to make you wait longer…"
I place the cup of tea on the desk and then hand him the file.
Andrew takes the file from my hand but didn't open it instead he keep staring at me.
"Are you for real?" He inhales and I look at him, bemused.
"Huh?" I furrow my brows at his question.
He shakes his head and then keeping the file at the desk, he commands, "Come here."
His arms stretched out for me and when I get closer he gently pulls me to his lap. I habitually wrap my arms around his neck as he looks at me with soft eyes.
"Next time, if you fall asleep then no need to bother yourself with anything… You need a good rest." He says as he tucks a strand of my hair behind my ear giving me an electrifying sensation.
"I have been resting these last days, I am fine, now," I tell him, honestly.
"Hmm…" He hums as he stares at me and then his hand gradually starts to go down from my hair to my shoulder and then my arm. "You are very beautiful, Tessy." He says, his breathing starts to change, "and innocent too."
He holds my hand and then kisses my knuckles. "I was scared to death when you didn't wake up for the whole day…" He reveals.
"I thought… I had committed a sin… a grave sin…" He says with deep emotions and I listen to him intently, I know he too feels guilty for that night. But what was his fault? He just tried to cheer me up and it was me who got drunk and create trouble for him.
"It's all in the past, now," I tell him as I hug him tightly, his face resting in the crook of my neck. He breathes heavily, his warm breath sends shivers down my body. Since the incident happened, we don't really get close to each other.
And neither my husband makes any effort nor shows any sign of wanting to get physical with me.
I shift my hands from his neck to his head and then very gently I start to caress his hair, his body tense as I force him to look up at me, we stare into each other eyes for a moment, our breathing getting hard and then taking the initiative I lean down and gently peck his lips.
"I miss you," I tell him meaningfully, he looks like battling with his emotions, and the he close his eyes shaking his head in refusal, I sigh disappoint, and then pull my face away from him but just as I pull away.
Suddenly, his eyes open and he says the words that I never expect him to say at this moment, "Tessy… I think I have fallen in love with you."
BOOM
Before I am able to form his words in my mind, he captures my lips throwing me off-guard. He kiss me softly yet full of passion, I am not able to give him any response as my mind was still blown from his sudden confession to me.
He pulls away when he senses me being numb, "You don't want this?" He asks, his voice is deeply hoarse.
It takes me a full minute to get my senses back and then I reply, "I do.."
He smiles brightly as though he has got something precious, and then again his mouth is on my lips, he picks me up and places me on the sofa.
His kisses on my body are soft and gentle, "I thought I would never be able to get this time back with you.." He says as he looks in my eyes and then showers my face with soft kisses.
He pulls up my nightdress and starts planting soft kisses on my body as I moan loudly. Very gently he takes off the fabric that is covering me and then after getting naked, he walks to his desk, and from a drawer, he pulls out a condom.
"Condom? Here?" I look at him, amused.
"I… I had always wanted to make love with you in here…" He says and his words melt my heart yet grow the intensity of emotions inside me. "Andrew.." I breathe.
"Hubby, you will always call me that, now. My dear Tessy." He says lovingly as he positions himself between my legs and then very softly pushes himself inside me, "You are mine, Tessy. All mine." He starts to move slowly while his mouth devours mine.
He seems to be lost in the world of desire and pleasure but with gentleness and softness.
I don't think I had ever seen him that soft and gentle while we had sex before. Tonight, it's different, tonight he is different.
"I won't let you go anywhere, Tessy.." He says as he thrust deeply into me.
"I am not leaving," I tell him hoarsely as I touch his cheek.
"You can't," he whispers and then pulls my bottom lips between his teeth… "Oh… I miss this so so much." He exclaims, his voice gives me peace and immense joy.
He holds my leg and wraps it around his waist going deeper, and it makes me moan louder as I arch my back up, "Yeah… that's right.." He groans as I start to match his thrust moving rhythmically.
Then suddenly, he holds my both legs and keeps them on his shoulder making me get closer to him and his thrust gets extremely deep, I frown as I feel it hitting my womb.
To ease my discomfort, he starts kissing my ankle, and then his kisses trail down to my legs making me forget about all the discomfort and uneasiness.
"Ahh… Hubby…" I moan as I feel myself getting close to my release.
He increases his speed and his kisses on my legs make me feel divine, he opens his mouth and then bites my flesh giving me immense pleasure and as he sucks my tingling skin, I moan his name loudly, "Andrew.."
And I shatter into million pieces and feel like my soul has been taken away from my legs, he very gently puts my legs down and then hugging me he continues his thrusts, and as he releases himself he again says something that nearly takes my breath away.
"I love you, Tessy.."
I look at him dumbfounded still in shock, he jolts hugging me tighter, and then finally raise his head to look at me, "I love you, Tessy…" he says it again making my heart drop a thousand feet. This couldn't be true.
"Say something, Tessy. Please…" He looks at me nervously and I bite my tongue to be sure if it's real or not when the pain shoots in my tongue I finally realized that it is real and Andrew has just confessed his love for me.
He just said the three magical words to me, "I LOVE YOU"
I feel like I am on the ninth cloud and with a huge grin on my face, I reply, "I love you, Andrew… I love you too…" I kiss him happily and he smiles.
We cuddle into each other arms like this, the sleep nearly gone from both of our eyes.
Andrew then discards the condom and wearing his clothes, he takes me to our room in his arms. We didn't sleep for the whole night, instead, we talk, we giggle, we laugh, the whole night spend like a fairytale, Andrew told me all the unfamiliar things he felt for me and never knew that it was love and tonight he seems to find the best time to confess his love to me.
I listen to all his words intently, my heart fills with joy and I want to sing loudly and dance, I want to share my happiness with everyone, I want to go on the terrace and shout out loud to the world that the person about whom I had always dreamed and always wanted to be mine has finally confessed his love for me.
He has made me his forever and He is mine, now, only mine.
I still feel like a dream when I am in his arms and his whispers of confessing love ring like a sweet melody in my ears, I want him to confess his love to me again and again and never want him to stop.
I wish the time stops now and capture me and Andrew in this beautiful moment where we are bare, vulnerable, honest, and totally in love with each other.
I hope we stay the same, I hope now no more drunk nights appear in our life, no more coldness, no more objections, no more hiding.
I want nothing to come between us and shatter our little fairytale world but in this world, is a fairytale ever able to survive without a demon trying to destroy it?
