Reunite

Chapter 13

I laid on Christian's shoulder, his slow breaths and warmth made me feel at home. I gazed up and he had fallen back to sleep, I covered the sheet over us more and held him tighter.

"Please, mummy.", He frowned and kicked some covers away roughly, I sat up and covered my naked body with the sheet. "Why won't you wake up!", He bellowed.

I grabbed his shoulders and shook him.

"Christian, it's just a dream.", I shook him once more before his startled eyes met mine.

"You are here.", He whispered, almost like he was convincing himself.

"I'm here.", I gently stroked his cheek before he swiped my hand away gently. "Are you ok?", I questioned, he nodded before standing up.

"I'm going to take a shower.", I gazed at his physique, he was truly beautiful. How was he mine?

Before I could say anything the bathroom door shut, I laid back down and heavily sighed. After fifteen minutes I heard the water turn off before hearing nothing but silence, he appeared with a white towel hanging dangerously low on his lips. His shoulders were wet and water was still dripping off the ends of his hair.

"Like what you see Steele?", I sat up on my elbows and kicked off the sheet gently, I revealed my naked body and I watched Christian jolt.

"Like what you see Grey?", He gulped and his eyes were wide with shock.

"Get your clothes on.", He dropped his head and ran a hand through his wet hair, I blushed and had failed to seduce him once more. I put the covers back over my body and tried to hide myself, I jumped as he slammed the door.

I sat up on the bed and ran my finger under my lip as I began to think, what had I done to make him be like this?

I grabbed one of Christian's t-shirts and roughly grabbed my panties that Christian ripped off last night.

I strolled around the house trying to find him but had no luck. Did he go to work? I thought to myself, the thought gave me an idea. I strolled to the office and put my ear against the door, I heard him arguing with someone on the phone. I didn't bother to knock and opened the door, Christian eyes moved to mine and he spoke quieter as he turned his attention to his laptop.

"Ring me again later, I need to know as soon as possible.", He hung up the phone and watched me sit in his chair, he took a deep breath and began heading towards the door.

"Christian!", I bellowed, probably louder than I wanted to. He gazed at the ground for a second before turning around. "Are you avoiding me?", I questioned.

"Avoiding you? No.", He frowned and wiped his stubble roughly.

"Then what have I done? Your so confusing. I feel like as soon as we progress we take two steps back.", I could feel myself building up with emotions.

He leaned on the desk directly in front of me, he wheeled the chair closer and sighed.

"Anastasia, there's nothing to worry about.", He stared at my legs, I stood up and glared at him.

"I need you to tell me what is going on.", I pleaded, his knuckles whitened as he gripped the desk hard.

"The dream this morning, it made me realise.", He dropped his head and licked his lips.

"Made you realise what?", He held my hands and placed them in his lap, I stood between his legs.

"That I'm scared I'm going to lose you, I feel pressure to make you happy.", I raised my eyebrows and shook my head.
