Germangie meets The Count of Monte Cristo

Chapter 42 - Worried

Angie's POV:

Priscilla truly pissed me off with her action. She is obviously feeling jealous and after what Vilu told me she wants all the attention and she's ready to even push Vilu out of the way, but if she does she'll regret it... I might as well just will use Edmond's elixir and...

- Angie!

Suddenly Edmond's voice snapped me out of my angry thoughts as we were sitting in his office. He was writing a letter till now...

- Y-Yes...? - I mumbled quietly.

- Are you feeling okay? You seem to be deep in thoughts since we arrived back home from the Studio...

- I'm fine though... I was just thinking...

- About German?

- Yeah... I mean no!

- Then? - he asked as he looked at me with a cheeky grin on his face and sat down beside me on the sofa.

He didn't even let me reply as his hands ran up on my tighs then he picked me on and sat me down on his table while he was looking deeply into my eyes the whole time.

- E-Edmond... - I stuttered as I was blushing deep red.

He grabbed my legs and made me wrapping them around his waist then he kissed me on the lips passionately and this went on for long minutes and he only let go of me because he also had to catch his breath.

- I love you so much... Never ever forget that... - he whispered.

- I love you too... - I whispered back - So much...

----- TIME SKIP -----

The next day Antonio called everyone together and told us that he can't be on the next tour with Vilu and the others because of his health.

His heart has been weak for a while now and I understand his decision, but I'm worried as well. I'm scared of losing him too...

I've lost my real father and he was like one for me as well... I don't want to lose him just yet... I need him...

- Antonio... - Edmond interrupted - If there is anything I can help you in feel free to tell me as well.

- Thank you, Sir! I truly appreciate it, but all I need is some rest - Antonio smiled.

I just hugged onto Edmond tightly and kissed his cheek while the others were talking.

- Hm? What was that for? - he asked as he looked down at me.

- For being so nice to him - I replied - Thank you... He won't accept any help though, but it still means a lot to me that you said it...

- It's nothing really... - he smiled and kissed the top of my head softly.

----- TIME SKIP -----

Later Edmond invited Antonio to us for a dinner and he accepted it. I don't know what's up with that, but I have a feeling he knows something that I don't.

The dinner was amazing and all of us had a good time, but for soem reason Antonio acted weird.

After a while Antonio decided to go home...

- Are you sure you don't need a ride home? - I asked him as we hugged.

- No need, darling - he replied - I'll be fine.

- You can stay over, if you want - said Edmond.

- I really don't want to be a bother...

- In the huge house? You wouldn't be a bother! - Edmond laughed, but he also seemed weird.

In the end Antonio left and I turned to Edmond because I felt like he's hiding something.

- Edmond...

- Call me weird, but I have a really bad feeling... That something bad is going to happen... - he said right away.

- What bad exactly...?

- I don't know... Something bad with him... - he said the pulled me into his arms - I'm sorry... I don't want to scare you though... But this is why I sent a servant after him to keep an eye on him...

- Thank you - I smiled and hugged him tightly, but I'm still not calm. I know if Edmond has any bad feeling like this the bad this will happen sooner, or later.
