Tiara POV:

"

I didn't wish to continue to tell anymore what happened after my parents died. I was too exhausted. To my luck Dave, Rachel and Max also didn't ask me to tell anything further. They had known almost everything and they were glad that I did so.

Rachel asked me to take rest in her room while Dave and Max would sleep in another room. I didn't want to sleep but definitely wanted to lay down and rest my body. I nodded and got up as Rachel and I left to her room. It was a tiring day. Rachel gave me one of her night suit which would fit me. I gladly took it and got freshened up. The moment I closed my eyes, Nicholas images came into my mind as well as my parents and Sas death.

I woke up instantly and saw Rachel in good sleep. I didn't want to disturb her, so I decided to just lay down. Picking up my mobile I saw a message that Raymond had already started to London leaving his work behind just for me. A smile adorned my lips thinking of Raymond and I couldn't wait to see him.

Couple of hours later, the bell rang. I knew it would be Raymond, so I was quick enough to go out of Rachel's room. Dave beat me in opening the door. Finally I could see him.

"Raymond"

I could see his stares were right on me and he was least bothered to look at or greet Dave who opened the door. As tears started to roll down my cheeks he signalled a "No". Dave who saw him and me understood and stepped aside asking Raymond to come in.

"I would want to take my wife to our home'' Raymond politely said to Dave without stepping inside

Dave nodded and held my hand and brought me to the door.

"Please take care of my little sister. She has gone through a lot. I know you have taken care of her very well, but still being her brother I would not want you to trouble her by any means in future." Dave spoke almost giving a warning

Raymond didn't say anything and just looked at me. Dave smiled and placed a gentle kiss on my forehead and gave my hand to Raymond. I hugged him before leaving with Raymond and assured him to meet the next day at office. Since Rachel and Max were sleeping, I didn't want to disturb them to which Dave assured me that he would inform them once they wake up.

Raymond was calm and didn't take off his eyes from me even for a second. As we entered the elevator he placed his arms around my shoulders and pulled me into his embrace.

"I missed you" I turned towards his side and snuggled in his chest.

"I know and I missed you too"

I looked at him and he started leaning towards me when the Elevator doors got opened. I chuckled as he pressed his lips into a thin line. We walked towards his car him not leaving my hand till he opened the door for me. The moment he got into the driving seat, he pressed the clutch and pulled the accelerator as a result we reached our home in no time.

Once we reached the living room, he pulled me towards him and I hit his chest. In the next second he crashed his lips against mine with his arms gripping my shoulders and my hands around his neck. The moment stopped for both of us. It was as if we were pouring all the emotions we underwent in this past week. I realised that moment, that I feel safe when he is around, I feel alive when I am in his embrace, I feel ecstatic when I kiss him - all in all I am crazily in love with him. He deepened the kiss and I let out a moan. His hands started travelling towards my waist and swiftly slipped under my shirt travelling upwards making a sort of current passing through my body. I felt my feet giving up and I just tightened my grip and pulled him closer. Suddenly yet slowly his hands moved back as we stepped apart in need of oxygen.

My cheeks were heating up and I didn't dare to look at him in embarrassment.

"You were supposed to answer my question when I come back sunshine?'' he spoke folding his arms and bringing them up to his chest.

I frowned at his words

"What question?''

"Something I asked you on Friday to which you replied you would answer me when I am back but not on call''

Ohh God he was so much into questions and Puzzles, Why can't he just ask the question directly.

"I don't think I remember saying anything of that sort''

His face shrank while he loosened his shirt and unbuttoned first two buttons of his shirt.

"That's okay. Answer me whenever you remember. It's very late, go back to sleep. We have lot to talk in the morning''

I nodded still thinking what I was supposed to answer him in person. Walking absentmindedly I reminded myself the conversation we had on Friday evening over the call. As I neared my room, I realised what he was talking about. I looked at him and he was walking towards his room.

"Raymond" I called him softly

He stopped and turned back.

"I like you more than you can imagine'' I blushed saying those words.

I could see his face beaming with happiness and he ran towards me and picked me up in his arms. I was giggling as he was twirling me.

"Raymond stop'' I giggled and then "put me down" I again laughed

"You know how happy you made me saying those lines. I was scared'' he said putting me down

I looked at him and few seconds later cupped his face in my palms

"Thank you"

His face frowned

"For coming into my life. For agreeing to marry me. For taking care of me. For protecting me. For Coming back leaving all your works just because I was scared, Scared ...'' my words stuttered as I remembered seeing Nicholas in the club

"I don't want you to remember him. He is someone you should erase from your memory'' he held my hands which were cupping his face. I smiled nodding

"Raymond" as I said he looked at me softly

"Why did you ask me if I liked you or not?''

His hands left my hands and he scratched the back of his neck as if he was apprehensive to tell me the reason

"I ... I just...'' he looked at me again while I got amused to see him stutter probably for the first time

"Sunshine, I want to ask you if you can move into my room." This time he said it straight much to my surprise.

I looked at him and left to my room closing the doors behind.

"Sunshine. I... I didn't mean anything in other way.. I was just asking... I... I am sorry if you were hurt. Open the door please and talk to me'' I could hear all his words but I know I am not going to reply him.
