Mija Priestess

Part 44

I wasn't sure how long I had laid there on Damian's chest but it was definitely long enough to make sure that he was deeply asleep. I rolled over off of Damian's chest and got out of bed, grabbing my phone and chucking a tee shirt on as I went. I decided it would be better to go to the guest bathroom across the hall rather than the en suite and risk Damian hearing me on the phone.

I unlocked my phone and sent Rhea a text. Are you awake? I really need to talk to you.Xx

I'm awake. Just getting ready to head to the airport. Everything ok? Xx

No!!!! Xx

Ring me Soph. NOW!!!! Xx

It took Rhea less than 3 rings to answer the phone. "What's going on Soph? Is everything ok?" I was starting to hyperventilate and was struggling to get my words out. "Soph, take a few seconds and a deep breath. Then tell me."

"I think Damian proposed to me."

"What? He didn't tell me he was planning on doing that. When? How? What did you say?"

"Slow down there Nightmare as I feel like I am living my own right now. We had gone to bed and just admitted to each other how much we love each other. I settled down to sleep on his chest like I always do and just as I was drifting off I heard him say 'Marry me then Mija?' I didn't say anything I just continued to try and fall asleep."

"Where is he now?"

"Asleep in bed. I think I want to marry him. No, I know I do but I don't want it to be a throw away comment he makes after we have sex. Don't get me wrong, I don't want the big in ring Wrestlemania moment or even on a beach at sunset but I don't want it to sound as though it is a throw away spur of the moment thing. Do you know what I mean?"

"I know what you mean Soph. You want to know he means it and he isn't just saying it because you gave him his happy ending."

"Exactly. I don't even think he knows that I heard him say it."

"Right Soph, I need to get going as my Cab is here but you need to maybe talk to him and tell him that you heard him or act like he never said it. Either way, do you love him?"

"Of course I do."

"Then get back to bed and be with the man who wants his future to be with you. Goodnight Soph."

"Night Rhea." I hung up and continued to sit in the bathroom for a few more minutes before flushing the toilet for effect and making my way back to bed. I opened the door as quietly as I could and slipped back into bed. It was only a matter of seconds before I felt strong arms embracing me.

"Where did you go Mija? You know I hate it when you aren't in bed with me. You were gone a while. Is everything ok?" Damian sounded half asleep thankfully so I felt certain he hadn't heard me on the phone. Damian snuggled into the back of my neck as I answered.

"I just went to get a drink and then to the bathroom but didn't want to risk waking you so used the torch on my phone and the guest bathroom. As for everything being ok, everything is just wonderful. Now go back to sleep Papi, I am not going anywhere."

I finally managed to drift off to sleep, albeit not for long but a few hours I think. I woke up before Damian which was a rarity so I managed to get out of bed, chuck some shorts on to go with the Tee shirt I had fallen asleep in and made my way to the kitchen to start breakfast for the both of us.

DAMIAN'S POV

I had heard Sophie get out of bed but didn't think too much into it. As she said she grabbed a drink and went to the bathroom. It was unusual of her to use the guest bathroom though and not the en suite, even in the middle of the night.

I just hoped she hadn't heard me ask her. I didn't mean for it come out, not like that. She deserved more than that and I was pleased that she was actually asleep and didn't answer me. I have to admit though that it took my by surprise when I awoke to find that Sophie was already up and out of bed.
