"Stephanie, where are you going?"

"Leaving."

"Where? With who?"

"With me," Omar says coming out from the corner as he wraps one arm around her waist and shares a kiss with her.

"Stephanie, talk to me! Please!"

"Enough AD. I'm through with being with you. You're not enough for me. I need something more like your uncle here. He is richer and gives me more satisfaction than you can ever give me. I'm going with him."

"Stephanie," he says as he grabs her wrist, "Don't go. Please don't leave me and go to him. You can be with anyone and I won't say a single thing as long as it is not him," he shouts pointing to Omar.

"No, it is Omar that I want to be with."

"Stephanie, please don't go. I love you so much."

"If you love me, you'll let me go."

"Stephanie, please..."

"AD wake up. AD? AD?!" Stephanie says as she ferociously shakes him.

"Don't go," he shouts as he jerks up and shoots his eyes open while breathing heavily.

"AD," she says in a calm manner as she rubs his back.

"Stephanie," he says as he tightly hugs her, "I was so scared. Y-y-you left me in my dreams to go be with my uncle. I-I-I beg and beg, but—"

"AD breathe," she says as she snuggles up to his chest, "it was just a nightmare. We both know I distaste your uncle; no way am I leaving you for him."

"I know," he says as he kisses her forehead, "I know."

The next morning, he wakes up to find her sleeping next to him like a baby. With a smile, he blows on her bangs and traces her lips. It has been quite a while since they had sex, but she has been piled with work and is exhausted. There is no way he will make love to her when she's already worn out from work. Moreover, just having her beside him is more than enough. Honestly, the nights when they're apart, drives him crazy and he usually goes into work grumpy since he would not get a good night sleep. Although the nightmare from last night is still worrying him. Is it a premonition? Or is he thinking too much?

"Good morning," he says as she opens her eyes.

"Already," she complains as she moves close to him and hides her face in his chest as her arms wrap around his torso, "It's too early. I don't want to go to work."

"What do you mean it's too early? It's already 8."

"8 is early," she muffles, "Can't you call Giselle and ask her to move the meeting to after lunch. I don't want to deal with my co-workers first thing in the morning," she complains as he laughs.

"Come on, get up sleepy head. You know I can't do that."

"But you're a billionaire. You can do anything."

"Looks like someone has been reading too much Wattpad."

"Hey, I don't have time to read Wattpad when I already have to read and approve all those articles at work."

Stopping in front of her workplace, making sure she arrived early for her meeting, he gives her kiss before she can get out. Since they spent an extra thirty minutes laying in bed and cuddling thanks to a special someone, breakfast was skipped. Instead, he made them coffee, and each got half of a toasted blueberry bagel. Sadly, both their schedule is kind of packed for the day, so they won't be able to get lunch and Stephanie is meeting with her girlfriends for dinner to celebrate Gabriella's birthday.

"Hey," he says after breaking their long kiss, "be careful okay," he says still worrying about his nightmare.

"I will," she says while wiping the lipstick stain off his lips with her long black sleeves.
