Valerie

I groaned looking at the clock beside me on the bedside table. It was three in the morning and I couldn't even get a wink of sleep after my fight with Aiden. Getting tired of tossing and turning in bed since lying down, I moved to the living room hoping that some Netflix series would help me. Surfing through all that was available for ten minutes, I ended up with two options only. One was a horror series and the other was a romantic series. I sighed not liking any of the options.

I knew Aiden was mad at me and mad was saying it slightly. The worst part was that I knew I was to be blamed for it, I caused this pain to both of us. Moreover, I just hated it when someone was mad at me, especially at my expense.

Deep down I knew I had to apologize for all the ruckus I had caused. Taking in a deep breath I picked up my phone to call him. I know it was three thirty in the morning but I had an intuition that he might be awake too just like me.

The phone rang for a bit and with every second that passed without him picking up the phone the more panicked I felt. Maybe my intuition was wrong and he had slept unlike me. However, the phone was picked up just before I was going to give up. The instant relief that came to me was bliss.

"I'm really sorry," I apologized instantly as I heard the call being picked up. I could hear him breathing on the phone but not saying a thing. I couldn't blame him for not answering. I wouldn't have answered if the tables were turned.

"I can't even express in words how sorry I am Aiden," I breathed. "You have got every right to be mad and I wish I could change something about this situation but I can't," I paused. "All I ask from you is to please forgive me for this time," I pleaded as my heart pounded rapidly. With each ticking second he didn't reply I could hear the thumping of my heart

"I'm sorry too, Val." I heard him breathe out a sigh and heard myself breathing a sigh of relief. "I knew what I was getting into with you but it's just, sometimes I want more for us," he paused.

"I know it's not any of our fault but some days I just want to know what it would feel like to be loved by you wholeheartedly. Literally, I can't explain to you how much I love you, Val. How much I want for both of us to work out." I stayed silent, absorbing his words. Somedays I felt guilty for not being able to give him the same back. For a moment it even felt like I was playing him. He surely deserved better than what I was giving him. He had every right to dump me and find someone else who could give him things I couldn't yet here we were. I knew I could never return his love but I couldn't let him go too. It was sick of me to think like this.

"You couldn't sleep, could you?" I was thankful for the subject change by him. It was as if he had read my mind.

"Yeah, I was feeling really restless tonight," I breathed out looking around the room. It felt empty without him.

"Yeah, I guess I could say the same for me. Sleeping without you when we should have been together doesn't feel good at all. God, I miss being beside you," he paused and I could hear him taking deep breaths and ruffling of sheets. "Tell me that I come over and we can still do something romantic to celebrate our first anniversary," his words turned me excited and giddy.

"You read my mind," I breathed. "Just hurry for me," I said huskily as I ran a hand in my hair. "And be careful, I will be waiting for you."

"I will be there in twenty," he cut the call and I closed my eyes shut smiling ear to ear.

"Thank god, for fucking sake," I almost yelled through the empty apartment feeling happy. I had always thought that getting Aiden's forgiveness was easy but today proved that it was not. As it was actually our anniversary I decided to light up some scented candles in the bedroom to make it seem special. It was three in the morning and I didn't have much more to help me right now.

I had never tried to do something like this but there is a first time for everything. I was sure that Aiden would surely see it as me taking the initiative to make our anniversary a good time. Getting into my closet I looked for the sexiest piece of lingerie I owned and it turned out to be red and something really spice. I changed myself into it and I was glad by the way it looked on me.

Almost twenty minutes later I heard the jiggling sound of keys outside. I breathed in a deep breath as I stood there in the living room waiting for him to see me. I had put on a red satin robe leaving it open so he could see my effort.

The door opened and there he was in a dark shirt that clung to his chest and jeans looking devilishly handsome. As he looked at me he just stood still. Biting into my lower lip I just looked at him as he stood there. Leaning against the door sill he just looked at me and smiled. Taking small steps towards him, I knew he was enjoying the show, I grabbed him by the collar and crashed his lips to mine. His hands roamed over my body as I kissed him like my life depended on it. The taste of his lips was addicting. Pushing me inside the house he locked the door and my legs wrapped around him. My hands were running in his hair while his were dangerously close to my panties.

It didn't take me by surprise that we had reached the bedroom without knocking anything. We both landed on the bed with a thud. It was only then when we came up for air. Our breaths came out heavily, we were starving for air and each other as well. My hands were inside his shirt while his rested on my hips.

"Did you miss me?" he asked in his voice sexier than ever. I could see the lust and love in his eyes. I nodded to him and I saw that sexy smile on his lips. God knows what I was going to do with him or what all he could do with me.

"More than you think," I answered my voice among out huskily. My lips found his once again.

As we devoured each other, our fight was forgotten. We were far away from the rest of the world for the rest of the night. It was a night filled with passion and lust.
