You Will Be Okay Here: Christian Novelli

Chapter Thirty Five

Anna POV:

Yawning, I played another one of Christian's videos on YouTube. Lately, he has been rather busy away so we haven't really had time to Skype or text much. Consequently, I have recently started to view his online videos so I could watch his beautiful face and listen to his perfect voice when he isn't next to me or we aren't communicating. We still have another few days apart which kills me inside. Patty usually rings to comfort me although I don't think I need it, however, I am still very grateful. I kinda feel bad though as when Christian is home, Patty and I hardly communicate. It is like I'm using him. Saying that, he is having a few relationship problems himself at the moment so he is probably glad of some friend comfort.

It was 3:22am. Eyelids becoming increasingly heavy, I decided to attempt some sleep. Slamming my laptop shut, I crawled under the duvet on our double bed and tried to drift off.

Christian POV:

"Yeah it is a shame. Anyway, bye guys" I spoke to everyone in the crowded car.

"Go get her cowboy!" Damon shouted which received several sshh's in return that I couldn't help but chuckle at. Creeping around, I carefully unlocked the front door and stepped inside our home. It was so great to be back. Everything was pretty much how I left it which both worried me and made me smile. Presuming Anna was in bed, I crept up the stairs - avoiding the creaky floorboards - craning my head around the bedroom door, I saw her body laying there still. Her frail arms were wrapped around some blankets which almost acted like another body but thankfully it wasn't. Gosh, I wouldn't know what to do if she ever cheated, however, I did know that doing that with the blankets is a sign of loneliness and missing someone which in a way was a good sign. Removing my clothing - leaving myself in my underwear - I quietly climbed into bed beside Anna. Personally, I wasn't sure to wake her or not but then I remembered her telling me about how bad her sleeping was so I decided to leave her be. Although, I was extremely excited to be home and all I wanted to do was kiss her, I thought it might even be a better surprise to leave her asleep. When she wakes, I don't want her to be grumpy. That would not be good.

'I came home early for you'

'Ergh'

No, that would not be good at all...
