The Long Wait

Chapter Four

I heard some noise just outside the bathroom that I decided to get out of the bathtub and showered quickly. I grabbed a clean towel folded inside the wooden shelf along with the other towels and tissue papers arranged very neatly. Not bad. This man is quite organized.

I wrapped it around my body then I walked inside the room. I noticed there was a simple pale pink plain dress placed on top of the bed. It was beautiful with its lacy skirt and sleeveless top which was not too revealing. Beside it, there was a black pair of lingerie. I walked into his walk-in closet. It was huge and luxurious as always. I managed to wear the lingerie and the dress so delicately. I don't want to ruin it incase it's too tight since it looked so expensive, but I was surprised when i found out it fits me just right. I walked towards the big mirror and I was satisfied with my appearance. I walked towards the bedroom barefooted, I was surprised when I saw Delton sitting at the arm chair facing the window. He looked fresh from the shower with his damp hair, wearing a plain maroon shirt and faded jeans. He really looked so handsome staring intently out of the wilderness. I cleared my throat and he quickly turned to my direction.

"Ah, there you are. I got you something." He said smiling as he stood up and grabbed a medium-sized box on top of the bedside table then he handed it to me.

My brows furrowed "What is this?" I asked looking at him. "I believe it is a box" He answered sarcastically. "Why don't you open it? You'll never know what's inside if you'll just keep staring at it."

I rolled my eyes ignoring his sarcasm. Then I opened the box slowly, I smiled of what I've seen. It was a pair of beige ballet flats with a pink bow tie placed at the front, it actually matched my dress so perfectly. "They're beautiful." I smiled at him then I sat on the bed to try them on but I was shocked when he knelt down in front of me and he held my foot with his hands. My cheeks flushed instantly of what he was doing. I motioned to get my foot back but he held it more tightly.

"Just let me. I know your body is still aching." He spoke softly massaging his thumb against my skin. Oh God, why is he doing this?

"I can manage." I answered stubbornly.

"No, you can't. You're not a good actress you know?" He gazed at me with his piercing icy-blue eyes. I felt something flickering inside me. I rolled my eyes, ignoring the electricity running throughout my whole body.

"Fine." I answered briefly.

He inserted my foot inside the shoe then gently placed it back down, he held my other foot and massaged it again with his thumb. It felt good actually. He always surprise me with his hidden talents.

After that, he inserted my foot gently into the shoe and placed it back down. "Thank you." I spoke softly. He stood up and wrapped his right hand into my waist and helped me stand up. "Dr. Wakefield will be here any minute now so we better go downstairs." He said formally. "Alright." I responded briefly.

We were already halfway down the stairs when there was a knock on the door. We hurried down and Delton motioned to open the door and I was sitting on the comfortable couch. When the door finally opened, Delton greeted the person.

"Hey man, come on in." He said as he made a way for the man to come inside.

"Hey bro. How's it going?" The man greeted him as he stepped inside.

Then his eyes quickly met mine. He smiled at me with his bright grey eyes. He looked so charming with his blonde hair and narrow nose. He had a strong jaw and muscular frame. Probably, he was six foot three because he's a little shorter than Delton. He wore a light blue shirt behind his white suit and paired it with dark jeans.
