Mistaken Identity✔

Chapter 20

  "Sleep with me," I repeated when I saw the shock look on his face. I wondered why he'd be shocked. What did I say wrong?

 I  slowly repeated in my head. Sleep with me. 

My eyes widen, 

  Oh damn, that sounded like I was asking him to have sex with me. I blushed and bent down my head, "Gosh, this is so embarrassing." I rubbed my hands through my hair then tried again. I didn't mean sleep with me, I meant I want you to stay the night with me in my bed doing nothing except sleeping. When didn't reply the real embarrassment started to kick in. What in the world possessed me to ask him such a question. Our relationship was supposed to be going slow, why on earth did that come out of my mouth? 

 I build up some courage then said, "If you don't want to, I understand completely."  

  He started laughing so I looked at him with a frown. He was laughing so hard and it was getting me a little angry. Did he think I was joking? Why was he laughing? I turned my head and looked in my room, maybe I should just go before I sink deeper. 

When I turn to leave he held onto my hands, "No, don't go. I'm sorry. You frighten me when you said that." He said still laughing, "You're so innocent."

  I turned around, I couldn't stand and watch him laugh at me. Laugh at how innocent and naive I am. I could feel the tears building up in my eyes, ready to fall. He was still laughing and I still couldn't understand what was so funny. Gosh, I'm such a fool. 

  Before I could take the first step to enter in my room I felt his arms around my waist. He stopped laughing and placed his chin on my shoulder. "I'm sorry," he said softly. He turned in his arms so I could look him in the eye. He immediately saw the tears in my eyes, "Don't cry. I never meant for you to cry. I'm sorry." Instead of calming me down his words made the tears fall. He lifts his hands to my face and started to wipe the tears away. He bent his head and kissed my temple, nose then my cheeks. "Don't cry. I'm sorry I hurt your feelings. I'll sleep with you in your bed and we won't do anything, well unless you want us to."

He lifted his hands and started to wipe the tears on my face. After he finished he kissed me on my temple, nose and cheeks. "It's okay. I'll sleep with you in the bed and we won't do anything, well unless you want us to."

I didn't know what to say so I nod. He smiled down at me, "I hope you forgive me for laughing."

"Forgiven." I slapped his chest then look up at him, "Don't ever laugh at me again."

"Never," he whispered. 

I smiled and rest my head on chest and hid my blush. 

"Let'you to bed." We entered into my bedroom and then the closed the door behind him. 

 We stopped when we reached the bed, "I normally change into a night grown before I go to bed."

  He shrugged, "That's fine. I'll turn around so you can change." he turn his back from me, he was looking directly through the window. "By the way, I usually just sleep in my boxers, so I'm going to just take off all these. No peaking."

I turned my back as well, giving him the same privacy he was giving me. I quickly change out of my jeans, T-shirt and bra into my cotton nightgown. "Can I turn around now?"

"Yes, can I?"

I nod my head, "Yes." 

  "Okay, let's do a count. We'll turn around in three. One. Two. Three." I spin around on three and noticed that we reached the same time. I held my breath involuntary as I looked at him. Just like he said he was only wearing boxing so his beautiful muscular chest was exposed. To say I was lost for words would be an understatement, I was lost for letters. He was by no doubt the sexiest man I've ever laid eyes on. His body was sculpted by the Greek gods. His six-pack chest looked so delicious, I wanted to be a little naughty and run my tongue over it.
