I woke up in the middle of the night and found the bed cold. Jace. I got off bed, all the lights were off except in the study, he wakes up most nights and just sits there, staring into thin air. I watched him for a couple of seconds, my head on the door frame. He carries so much on his shoulders, all alone. He doesn't want to share his problems with me and I want him to.
Married people should share their problems, maybe gang leaders don't, he didn't even turn around. I walked up to him and threw my arms around his neck, my breasts pressing against his bare back. He brushed my arm and kissed it still not looking at me, I kissed the back of his neck, he was just holding the sonogram.
"Why are you up?".
He held my arm a bit tighter."I couldn't sleep, why are you up?".
"I woke up and you weren't there".
"I'm sorry, I just, I...".
"Let's go to bed".I whispered to him.
I moved back and walked in front of him, I took his hand pulling him up, I then took the sonogram and put it on the table without looking at it. It still hurts. I took a step forward and he followed me, our hands still intertwined.
He then stopped forcing me to also stop, I looked back at him and he bit his lower lip, pulling me back taking my hand around his neck and just lifted me up. I love it when he does that. To tell the truth, I love it all. He walked up the stairs my legs around his waist, he kissed my forehead making me move my head up kissing him on the lips. He pulled back my lower lip in his teeth.
We're going to fall down the stairs and it will hurt but I like it, he pushed the door with my back and put me down on the bed my lips still in his mouth. He kissed my jawline down to my neck, slowly sucking in.
He looked down at me and brushed my face. He smiled kissing me again, I straddled him making him move back and give me that look, he is shocked, I just smiled. This is perfect for me, him. He is enough. He kissed me passionately taking it as slow as he can, he moved his lips down to my neck kissing and sucking then down to my chest kissing down to my stomach.
Then back up again, his hands moving to my back brushing my back up to my bra and he gave my chest a million pecks making my heart shoot for the stars. Making my monitor go off, I hate this thing, seriously, he moved back and I just smiled assuring him I'm okay but he won't take that. Everytime the stupid monitor goes off he treats me like a little kid.
He stopped kissing and brushed my stomach, I sighed and moved my hand up to his head and brushed it, he brushed the hypertrophic scar on my stomach then laid down on my stomach. I smiled brushing his head making him breath as slowly as anyone could, he kissed the side of my stomach.
"Are you happy? Do I make you happy?".
"More than anything".
He kissed my stomach brushing it."And do you still love me?".I lifted up my left hand showing him my wedding ring still on my finger."You do".
I sat up straight forcing him to also sit up."Jace, I love you, I will always love you".
He just nod and I smiled moving down to him, he also smiled and I gave him a deep, passionate kiss making him pull me to him making me straddle him while sitting on his laps still kissing. I smiled on his lips making him hold my neck a bit tighter and suck my lips a bit stronger.
He moved back kissing my neck and he just held me, if it's not the heart monitor watch then it's him worrying about me and if not that then he's worried about hurting me again or about something closely related. I just sat there on his laps holding him and he held me back.
I woke up in the morning and the sun was already out, I don't usually sleep in this late, I don't like it when I wake up and the sun is already out because then my whole body hurts and I wake up with a hangover headache. The sun hit me again. I buried my face on the pillow and screamed. Jace knows how much I hate it when he opens the curtains in the morning, he's trying to get on my nerves today.
He really is. I got out of bed and marched downstairs wearing nothing but his shirt, it still smells nice, like him, I guess his smell is stored in my mind. Jace was already making breakfast in the kitchen making me remember the day he and Amy made me breakfast, he looked up at me and smiled walking up to me, meeting me halfway.
He brushed my shoulders, pulling me to the chair, how annoying."I made your favourite, you look annoyed?".
I do look annoyed because I am annoyed."The curtains were opened".
"I know, I opened them, eat up we have to go".
"Go? Go where?".
"You'll see".
He actually smiled at how annoying he is, I made that face and he chuckled and I dug in, me, food, same WhatsApp group, no matter how annoyed I am, I'll always eat. Jace just sat there watching me with a smile, he does that five times a week, I don't know why but it makes me feel more loved, he gave me my pills with a glass of water.
"I hate pills".
"You hate everything".
I looked up at him and sneered."No I don't".
"You do know that I changed the bed right? And pretty much everything is new".
"Why?".
He smiled taking my hand giving it a kiss."Just because".
That did change my mood a little, maybe I am being a little bit overdramatic but I didn't like being here while Amy once lived here. I slightly smiled at the fact that he knows me so well.
"I'm glad Amy is alive".
"Me too".
He waited with his hands on his waist, I ran down the stairs for the sixth time then up the stairs again, he walked up the stairs after me, he took my bag, my hat and his jacket then lifted me up throwing me over his shoulder then down the stairs.
"Jace put me down!".
"No, we have to go".
I groaned screaming, just not as loud as I usually would, the elevator doors opening, Adelle and Sosibo froze, he also froze putting me down, I looked up at them then hid behind him.
"What's going on?".
His PA looked embarrassed."I'm sorry sir, I tried calling you but they insisted on coming up".
"We need to talk to you".
"Sorry, no can do, I'm taking my wife somewhere, there's food in the fridge, you can stay if you want but I'm not sure how long we'll be out for".
•
•"Whose house is this?".
"It belonged to Mr Vezi then he gave it to me, do you like it?".
"I love it, it's amazing".
"We are moving in t
then"."Moving in? As in like we'll be living here?".He just nod, I looked around the house and smiled."It's a bit too big, don't you think?".
"So you don't like it then?".
I smiled frowning."I do like it, it's just that, it is a mansion Jace and there's like you and I but I do love it and I prefer it to the penthouse so, we're moving in".
