"Being deeply loved by someone gives strength, but loving someone deeply gives courage"
- Lao Tzu

Aurora's POV:

The bright sunlight made my sleep leave me .. again !

mmmhhhmmm.. i started to get frustrated when i couldn't sleep again i turned to my other side and my hand touched something which felt like a hard surface , i moved my palms up trying to figure out what it is , still with my eyes closed . As my palms were moving up it felt tingly...or something like Stubble?

My hands were trying to figure which felt soo soft and squishy .. like lips ?

Pillows don't have any lips ! Rightt..?

1
2..
And..
3...

the realization struck to me like a bolt .

My eyes flew open , fluttering slightly due to the blinding sunlight . My mate was lying next to me staring at me with amused eyes . And my hand still on his lips ! I gasped and quickly removed my hand.

Ohh godd this is sooo embarrassing ! I wanted to slap my self .. hard !

"Ummm...i-im so sorry.. i-uh" i stammered.

Its official my brain refuses to work in the morning .

Good job brain ! You're so useful to me !

"If you really like my body that much you can keep touching it you know i don't have any problem " His voice was soo deep, he had a slight smirk playing on his lips and I gaped at him without blinking .

I turned red like a tomato .

This man will be the death of me !

I quickly calmed myself down because my hormones were going haywire !
"I-i am gonna go get freshen up " i said pointing towards the bathroom and made my way towards it . I could hear his slight chuckle behind me , my cheeks were burning up due to embarrassment .

Mental note to self - Never try to figure out things when you're half asleep ! I repeat neverr .

I quickly took shower and changed my self into a navy blue colour button up T-shirt and black skinny jeans , i left my hair down because i was lazy . Did i tell you there was walk in closet in the room ! It is hugeee !

It was already 9 in the morning , My mate had already left, i felt a little bad but i shrugged it off and walked downstairs .

"You look lovely dear" Melissa complemented as soon as i entered kitchen . "Thanks mel " i gave a sincere smile to her .
"I'm soo hungry ! What's for breakfast?" I asked her rubbing my grumbling stomach .
"There's cheese toast , french toast , some grilled sausages and bacon , what to you need ?" She gave a list to me smiling .
"Oh wow ! I need everything !" My eyes gleamed with happiness and Mel's were wide . " I can't help it when i am hungry " i winked. She chukled in response and within few moments she kept plate in front of me and it was appealing .

My stomach was threatening to bulge out from my buttons because i had too much of food .
I bet you're pretty happy now ..eh? I said to my stomach while patting it .

There was no sign of theo anywhere but luke had already arrived when i came down
For breakfast . I wanted to ask luke about Theo's whereabouts but he doesn't look approachable at all, but Theo is such a sweet heart i never felt like that when i met him .

I slowly walked upto luke "Ahem" . When he saw me he quickly bowed which i am never used to. "Yes Luna ? Do you need anything?" He asked . " Yes .. no.. yes i needed to uhm know about Theo, where is he ? He hasn't been here since morning" i asked him curiously hoping to get an answer from him .
