Brian POV

I've never been more scared in my entire life. When Anna called me about Jinette's condition I felt like the rug was pulled out from under me. I rushed over to see her shaking and hyperventilating, I don't know how I got through it but I just know if anything had happened to her and our baby I couldn't live with myself.

For two days they have her sedated to relax her. I didn't close my eyes I just kept staring at her face, how beautiful and at peace, she looks. I love her and I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I was so furious with her. I should've gone to her, I can't beat myself up enough for putting her through this. I let my ego get in the way. She hurt my pride and I hurt the both of us and for what. Now she is laying in a damn hospital bed and it's all my fault.

I blame myself for this, I broke down and cried when they took her away in the emergency room. Anna tried to console me. I'm grateful she was there who knows what would've happened if she was alone.

It hurt my soul, I did this to her. I walk out of her room to get some coffee. The sleep deprivation was getting to me. I couldn't close my eyes every time I did I see her in that state and it kills me to know I did this to my wife.

When I walk back into the room, I look over at Jinette to see her awake. She starts to cry immediately seeing me standing here.

"Baby," I say rushing over to her. The moment I touch her I encircle my arms around her bringing her close to me. I can feel her heart beating rapidly and she loosens up in my embrace.

"Brian," she says crying holding on to me, burying her head in my chest while I kiss her head.

"I'm sorry baby, this is on me," I say.

She shakes her head, "we hurt each other." She cries "I should have listened to you. I promise to give you the benefit of the doubt and listen whenever we argue."

"Baby my heart belongs to you no one can excite, fascinate and captivate me the way you do." I touch her nose.

I confess how I feel to her and she hold onto me and my ego completely did a three-sixty. I feel great knowing she needs me as I do her. I climb onto the bed and hold her, she cradles her body into mine. Best feeling in the entire world as I hold her in my arms. There is so much more I want to say but I want her to get better before I can truly deal with it all. When I can be rational and had some rest. Now that she's a little better, I can breathe with relief.

Now that I know she's better I need to shower and change but she holds onto me and wouldn't let go. She yarns and I know it's only time before she goes back to sleep then I can sneak out and get back before she wakes up. " Brian" "yes baby" I answer. "I don't ever want to be away from you."

"Me too baby."

When her eyes finally close, I signal Anna to take my place on the bed with her as I ease myself off the bed. I give her forehead one last kiss walking out.

Jinette POV

I open my eyes to Anna fast asleep beside me. I didn't move, I didn't want to wake her. I know I put her through a lot the past couple of days and every time I open my eyes she was here so I let her sleep. Anna is an incredible friend to put up with me. She had me the entire time she came here.

I lay here thinking about how my body reacted when Brian wasn't there. How I fell in love with this man giving him my all. And how the creator has destined us to each other with the way my body reacted when I thought he didn't love. From the moment we were arranged to each other, it's like our hearts are intertwined into perfect unity as one. He told me when we made love for the first time that our souls are tied together. I believe him.

My thoughts were interrupted when he enters the room looking showered fresh. I stretched out my hands for him. Anna shifts opening her eyes.

"So you're kicking me out because your husband is back."

"Thanks, Anna," Brian says as she gets up. "Why don't you go freshen up and get some rest," I suggest to her. She rolls her eyes at me. "Not only are you kicking me out, but I also stink."

"Now that you mention it you do kinda stink," I scrunch up my nose at her.

"Let's see who's going to hold you when your husband leaves," she sticks her tongue out at me walking out the door.

Brian chuckles beside me taking out his phone. he calls Keith to take her to the apartment.

When he cut the call he looks over at me he saying "I've been waiting to do this for the longest time," he places his lips to mine gently sucking my lower lip. He places his tongue into my mouth our tongues entwine and moved in sync with each other. He deepens the kiss as he cups my face getting closer to me. My entire body is aroused by the way he's kissing me and the heat his hands spread through my body. I throw my hands around his neck pulling him even closer, he drags his teeth on my lip pulling away resting his forehead on mine.

"Do you know how badly I need you right now," he groans. I giggle "I need you more."

"Brian I love you so much. I don't want us to be how we were. My body and mind can't take it," I told him sincerely.

"I know baby," he kisses my forehead.

"I don't ever want us to fight like this again. Promise me that we will always find a way to work it out before we go to bed."

"I promise wife."

"You look so tired, husband. You need to shave." I rub the stubble on his face.

"I didn't want to leave you and I didn't sleep. As soon as you're home and all better, I will go to the barber to keep it fresh for my lady."

I blush, he always knows how to make me smile. "You sweet talker you." We lay here talking and making up. He told me about granddad and all that has been happening at the company the past week.

I can finally breathe, my husband is in my arms and life is rolling on.
