Two days later, Norah was safely back home with Gabriel being the sweatest gentleman. Anything she needed he'd make sure she had. He pampered her. Part of it being from him feeling so aweful about the events that had occured. She shouldn't have gone through that trama in his mind. The man spoiled her rotten with his love for her, but never asked for anything in return.
Today was no different. Since the attack, Norah was still being treated like a princess. Gabriel would make her breakfast in bed, and lunch and dinner too, if she so desired. He watched over her with loving eyes, but never touched her in a way that would displease or frighten her. They had been through a lot... She had been through hell.
"Gabriel?" Norah asked from her bed.
"Yes?" He asked from the chair he sat on, in the middle of reading a book.
Her cheeks flushed. "Will you... cuddle with me?"
He looked over at her with curious eyes as he put the book down, not even bothering to mark the page he had been on. "Anything." He said with a smile. He slowly slide next to her as she laid down. Her eyes remained on him.
He slid laying beside her and he hugged her. "I'm sorry for what happened to you, Norah." Gabriel whispered softly in her ear for he was quite sorry. She should have never been hurt by those men. He felt such pain for not having protected her sooner.
And without skipping a beat, Norah smiled and replied, "You don't have to be sorry." She leaned in, her soft lips touching his. "I love you," she said pulling away.
"I love you too," Gabriel whispered back, kissing her nose. He smiled as she nuzzled into his chest. He held her, eyes closing as he enjoyed her holding onto him as well.
"Gabriel?"
"Yes?" He asked, eyes not bothering to open.
"Kiss me?" She asked causing him to look at her with a bright smile.
He leaned his head down, capturing her soft mouth. They kissed for what felt like forever before Norah pulled away, blushing lightly as she asked him. "Gabriel? What would you say if I wanted a baby?" She looked at him shyly smiling up at him.
He could only smile back in return. His eyes drifted down towards her belly before looking up at her. "I'd have to say, tell me when." He said smiling brightly.
Her bottom lip found its way in between her teeth. "When... how about now?" She kissed him lovingly as he kissed her back.
His finger lightly cascaded her face as butterflies bounced madly through his stomach at the thought of what she was asking him. "Are you sure?"
"I couldn't think of it being anyone else."
