Author POV
It was early morning when Amelia woke up with a naked sore body due to yesterday night action. She leaned against the headboard while her eyes were scanning the entire room but Edward was nowhere to be seen. She extend her right hand while holding the duvet near her chest to reached for her phone on the bedside table and checked the time, it was 6:11 a.m.
Her gaze shifted to her butterfly necklace on the stand. She picked it up, holding it in her hands as a small smile graced on her lips. Just then Edward emerged from the wardrobe already dressed in his formal suit looking sharp and ready for work.
"Good morning, sweetheart" he noticed she was awake and greeted her with a loving voice.
"Good morning... You're leaving for the office so early?" she murmured with her soft but clear voice while adjusting the duvet.
"Yeah I have some important meetings and upcoming deals to prepare for" he replied while approaching her. He sat beside her taking the necklace from her hands. Carefully he fastened it around her neck and stroking her messy hair.
"Do you want to sleep a bit more?" he asked with a soft tone.
She shook her head slightly in deny.
"Okay, Get fresh have breakfast and..."
Reaching into the drawer he took out a bottle of pills and kept it near the necklace stand "don’t forget to take this medicine okay?" he instructed firmly mentioning the birth control pills.
"Okay" she replied softly "You’re not having breakfast here?" she asked
He leaned in closer clearly aiming for a kiss but she quickly stopped him placing her hand on his chest "Bad breath" she murmured as her cheeks were flushing.
"Do I care?" he said with a teasing smirk before placing a soft kiss on her lips anyway. Amelia blushed looking away shyly, but he still continued to kiss her cheek and then forehead.
"I’ll have breakfast at the office" he said standing up and adjusting his cuffs. "Bye" he added turning to leave.
"No-" she said but quickly changed her words lowering her voice "I mean come back soon"
He paused glancing back at her,
" Edward asked softly, his voice laced with curiosity.
What if...someday It would be last bye
There's always this fear in her heart, what if everybody leaves her all alone.. usually nobody stays forever in her life.. specially with the person she wished to spent the most time with. Amelia's gaze shifted to the framed photo of her parents on the nearby table. She didn’t respond as her silence became heavy with unspoken emotions.
Edward, the cold and commanding CEO, felt a pang of pity for her as he saw the vulnerability in her eyes, the quiet pain of someone who had lost her family and carried the weight of that loss silently all these time.
Without another word he pulled her delicate naked body into his arms, enveloping her in a warm and protective embrace. He murmured gently his voice full of care, "You don't like hearing 'bye'?"
She didn't respond to his question as she didn't know how should she express
"You..will get late for work.. you should go.." She murmured near his ears as he hugged her.
"Wait for me, I will be back soon okay sweetheart?" He said in his deep comforting voice while looking at her.
Amelia blinked away the tears that threatened to spill, her lips curving into a soft smile despite the ache in her heart. She nodded lightly, her voice barely above a whisper. "Hmm..."
Edward tightened his hold for a moment, resting his chin lightly on her head, as if silently promising that he would always be there for her. Then, with one last reassuring squeeze, he released her and stood up ready to face the day but leaving behind a lingering warmth in the room.
