Pages were turning. The sound of paper disturbed my peaceful sleep. What is happening?

My blurry vision was now clear. It was him.
Seeing this handsome man sitting on the chair in front of my bed made me happy. He was wearing a clean white shirt and navy blue pants. His dark soft hair was perfect as always.
I guess he came to see me after school ended.

Did someone tell him what happened?

He looked up. The moment he made eye contact with me, all his papers dropped on the floor.

-You're awake?
Victor asked rushing to my side.

I looked at him with tears filling my eyes.

I missed his deep strong voice more than I thought.

-Why aren't you saying anything? Are you hurting? Do I need to call the doctor?
He asked me with a worried voice while feeling my arms and legs to make sure I was fine.

I shook my head with a forced smile.

-I...I'm just happy to see you.
I replied trying to reassure him.

His eyes widened as if he wasn't expecting my answer.

-Come here...

Victor gentely put my head on his torso. His embrace was so gentle yet strong. I felt as if nothing in the universe could get to me.

-I feel safe in your arms.
I whispered while closing my eyes hearing his heartbeat.

Never in my life have I imagined saying these words to my boss.
But at this moment I didn't care.

I felt Victor's big hand caressing my long hair.

-I-I'm sorry it haven't been brushed for a few days...

I burried my face is his muscular chest. Ughh...how embarrassing...

-I'll be right back.
He said before letting me watch him get up and walk outside the room.

Oh no...is he a clean freak?? Is he running to the bathroom to wash his hand from my dirty hair?? I-I mean it's not THAT dirty! Only tangled a little!...

While I was getting even more embarrassed, Victor came back holding in his hand a comb.

-Can you turn your head a little?
He asked me after bringing the chair close to my bed.

I nodded.

Victor took a lock of my brown hair and started brushing my hair slowly.

His slender fingers were being careful not to hurt me as they danced on my head.

His head was so close to mine and his warm breathe was tickling my ear. I couldn't help myself from blushing.

-Tell me if it hurts.
He said as he kept brushing my hair delicately.

-You're actually really gentle. It doesn't hurt at all. It feels nice...
I said smiling.

After hearing her words, Victor's mouth curled up into a soft grin.

He was so happy to see Miruki being ok. He was afraid of losing the only woman he deeply cared about.

Gavin was investigating everything and would soon give him all the details about what happened that evening.

For now he would only think about taking care of her and making sure she was okay.

Victor starred at the back of her head thinking about everything that happened. He got closer and layed a soft kiss on her hair.
