Kiss Him Once For Me (A Bernard X Reader. Book 2)

Chapter 6

Y/n pov

"Y/n?" I heard someone say peeking into my door. I looked up and saw Bernard.

"Hi," I said putting the paper I was reading down. He walked in and put some flowers on the desk. "What's this?" I asked.

"Flowers," he said.

"I love them. Thank you" I said picking them up. He smiled his crooked smile before walking over to me. He kissed my cheek

"What are you working on?" He asked.

"I don't even know anymore. I've had three cups of cocoa though so"

"Three?"

"Yeah" 

He leaned on the arm of the chair.

"Oh, here I don't really know what there and. This is more you're area" I said handing him some paperwork. He grabbed it and looked over it before putting it in his bag. I took a breath before leaning back in my chair

"You have some free time?" He asked.

"Why?" I asked suspiciously.

"Why that tone?"

"We're getting closer to Christmas and you're asking if I have free time"

He paused before shrugging. "Answer my question"

I sighed with a smile. "Yeah, I have some why?"

"Let's go on a walk. For like twenty minutes"

"You're missing me that much?"

"Yes or no?"

"Yeah let me grab my-" I started before he held out my jacket

"Got it," he said. I smiled at him before getting up and kissing his cheek.

"You had this thought through"

"Yes I did snowflake," he said. He stood up and grabbed my hand after I put my jacket on. He pulled me with him through the workshop and into the village. He squeezed my hand as we walked. Our hands swayed next to us. I saw some of the elves playing tinsel football and smiled at them. Bernard watched me as I watched the boys. He rubbed his thumb over the back of my hand gently. I looked over at him before we continued walking. It was snowing lightly as we walked. I felt it falling into my hair. I watched as elves walked around the area with a smile.

"Thank you," I said suddenly looking over at Bernard. His face turned confused

"For what"

"Getting me out of that office. I think I would've died another minute in there" he shook his head next to me. "By the way how did you get away from dad?"

"He went to get lunch and the others are here"

"Like tooth fairy and them?"

"Yeah"

I nodded.

"Wait he was getting lunch?"

"Yeah"

I looked down at my watch.

"Oh it's way later than I thought"

"Did you eat lunch?" He asked.

"I think I forgot"

"I'm getting you lunch then," he said.

"No Bernard you don't need to"

"Snowflake we've dated for 8 years. You should know this by now"

"Bernard"

"Let's go," he said pulling me with him

"No, it's fine. I'll grab something from the kitchen"
