My Badboy Husband (On Hold)

Chapter 22

Chapter 22: I'm Sorry (not edited)

Isabella's POV

With a yawn I slowly sat up in bed cursing as the blinding sunlight shun through the window giving me a perfect view of outside. I leaned against the headboard since I couldn't actually stand up so quickly due to the soreness I was feeling from last night. Thinking back on the moment my cheeks instantly flushed pink as a small smile seeped across my lips, but that smile soon vanished as I remembered what was gonna happen today. I could already feel that huge lump in my throat beginning to build up as my hands bald into fists clutching the sheets tightly as if that would change anything.

I bobbed my head down as my breathing quicken before I felt someone's hand suddenly rested on my shoulder. Out of fear I swung my fist at whoever was there but luckily I missed seeing that it was just Carter. " Damn, Bella what're you trying to, kill me?" Carter joked pulling me onto his lap.

"sorry, I was just thinking" I said trying my best to smile but it only made him instantly notice that I wasn't okay. That's just the thing with him, he always know how to read me, how to know how I'm feeling or what's on my mind. I don't know how exactly he does it but he always seems to be right.

He frowned at me letting out a sigh"please" he started off"just don't think about that right now" he said holding my hand in his looking down at me

"how do you even expect me not to" I said standing up."I can't just ignore the fact that your gonna leave for so long" I said as I paced the room back and forth trying to get my thoughts together. My mind was literally in a bundle right now, and no matter how hard I tried to control how I was feeling I couldn't, everything was just too much for me to take in all at once and it was driving me crazy. I looked over at Carter again to see that pleading look in his eyes as if he was silently begging me to calm down.

But being the stubborn me I was I kept pacing back and forth arguing. He soon got tired of my ranting and yelling and with one swift move he got off the bed and grabbed my waist before he pulled my body against his instantly silencing me.

"please just calm down" he said firmly " I know your mad at me for leaving but I just want to spend at least a couple of hours with you before going away knowing that your driving yourself completely insane" he breathed out.

I looked up into his eyes before laying head on his shoulder taking in a deep breath inhaling his scent which calmed my body a bit. He wrapped his arms around me in a comforting embrace while he rested his chin on my head.

"Are you okay now?" he asked lifting my chin.

"yeah I'm okay" I smiled

"good" he said" now we're gonna go downstairs I have someone I need you to see"

"who?" I asked confusion plastered all over my facial expression.

"let's go and see" he said taking my hand

"wait I can't go down there looking like this" I resisted as I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror

"It doesn't matter your beautiful and plus I don't think you'll be thinking about how you look when you see who it is" he added still pulling me along.

I creased my eyebrows in confusion trying to keep up with him before he suddenly stopped at the top of the staircase. "what?.. Why'd you stop?" I asked getting even more confused than I already was by the whole situation.

"when I take you down there and you see who it was.. Promise me you won't freak out" he said looking at me hopefully

"why.. Who's down there"
