*Gabriel's pov*

A few weeks has passed... Victoria was clearly beginning to feel more comfortable again.. she was relaxing more whenever I touched her. (No not in that way)
I haven't been able to kiss her still..

I knew she was traumatised from what happened but..  I haven't been able to kiss her in 5 years... I miss the feeling of her lips on mine. I craved it. I wanted to respect her. So I'm judt going to have to wait.

*Victorias pov*

A few weeks have passed since I got home.. everything was starting to feel more... normal..

Gabriel's been helping me alot. He set me up with a therapist he used to go to, Poppy. A 2 hour session twice a week. Just to talk about it. And it's making me start to feel more comfortable.

I even think I'm ready to explore the boundaries if mine and Gabriel's relationship... only time would tell if I was ready to kiss him again but.. I hope I am ready.

I was currently sat with the boys in the lounge. We are still just as close. It didn't take me long to figure that out. We were watching a movie. Not that I was actually watching. Enzo could clearly tell but Luca couldn't.

"Victoria? You okay?" Enzo finnaly spoke up. I nodded my head. "Yeah.. just thinking about some stuff.." I gave him a fake smile and turned back to the movie.

_______________

The movie finnished an hour later. The boys all went off to do their own thing. So I went up to see Gabriel. I walked into his office and walked towards him.. 5 and a bit years ago I would've climbed onto his lap. But at the moment in time, I couldn't do that. But as I stood behind him, playing with his hair, I knew I was ready to kiss.

I didn't want it to be infont of loads of people though, well.. atleast not his gaurds..

Gabriel slowly looked away from the computer, finishing the sentence he was typing. He twirled the chair round and smiled at me. "Hi!" He exclaimed while admiring me.

"Hey!" I giggled, "What you doing?" He let out a sigh and rested his head against my chest.
"Responding to emails.. one of our workers is a mole so I need to find out who it is and get information out of them.." my eyebrows furrowed and my mouth formed into a 'O' shape. He must've seen my reaction and panicked as he quickly began to talk again.

"But it's fine! Because I'm working on it! And I have a few suspicions! I'll get them out before you know it!" He awkwardly laughed it off.
I nodded my head. He hadn't said where the mole was from but I already knew it was the Germans..

"Germans?" I questioned. Gave froze for a moment before nodding. "Let me see all the workers we have I might recognise one.. but for now... can we go on the roof?" Gabriel's face lit up at my last sentence. He immediately got up and grabbed my hand, rushing me to the balcony.

We climbed up onto the roof from there and sat down. I scanned across the garden and saw it. "You built the tree house!?" Gabe nodded his head. That was one of the things we talked about the first time I came up here. How he wanted to build a tree house on a tree close to the house.

I smiled at my husband. We had to ask out lawyers if we're still married after what happened. Lots of confusement later they confirmed we are. The boy smiled back. My eyes trailed down to his lips. I slowly lent forwards untill our lips were almost touching... but not quite.

"You sure you want this?" Gabriel whispered.. "Yeah... I'm sure" My lips formed a smile. I leant forwards and attached our lips. He wasn't dominating like he used to. It was clear he wanted too though.

6 months had passed. I was still trying to comprehend what happened last night. Victoria and I.. we had sex.. I thought it would've took her so much longer to be ready. I was prepared to wait years..

We were both naked in bed with just the sheets covering us, Victoria still asleep. She looked so gorgeous. And peaceful. She wasn't just my girl.. she was my whole world.

The bedroom door suddenly swung open and Ruby stood there with her jaw wide open and wide eyes. "Uh... morning... I'm gonna go.. tell Victoria too come find me... in a bit.." she awkwardly shit the door. Why is it always Ruby? I mean she does barge into our room most mornings but still...

I sat up and scanned the room for my clothes. Where tf were they. I spotted them all the way across the room by the door. Great. I'll just get some new clothes. I quickly ran to my draws and grabbed some boxers and shirts then quickly ran back to bed, by that point Victoria was awake.

"Emjoying the view?" I teased while sliding my clothes on. She simply chuckled and bit on her bottom lip.

"Obviously.. can we talk though.. about last night?" She gave me a sweet smile as I sat back down next to her. Getting lost in her gorgeous eyes.

"I.. I wanted to say thank you.. for how gentle you were.. and making me feel safe.." the girl mumbled while looking down. I moved closer to her and pulled her into a hug.
