Ethan stared at me for a minute before leaning forward and pressing his forehead gently against mine. His breath fanned across my face causing goosebumps to appear across my arm. I swallowed hard and closed my eyes. I could feel his soft exhales against my skin.

I could feel his hot breaths on my face. I could feel every inch of his body pressed against mine. Everything in my stomach clenched and my heart pounded faster. I could feel my whole body trembling and I was suddenly aware of how close we were. How easily it would be to close the gap between us.

My brain screamed at me to pull away, to push him away and run home. It was a battle I wasn't sure I was winning.

My breathing grew heavier and my palms began to sweat. This isn't real. This isn't real. This is just another one of his sick games. Just another one of his lies. Please god let him be lying.

He suddenly shifted and I felt his arms wrap around my waist. I jumped slightly at the touch but didn't move. I don't know what h

    "Morning love," I muttered softly, placing a kiss to the back of his neck and wrapping my arms around his waist tightly. He chuckled lightly. "Good morning darling." He replied, tightening his hold on me. I buried my face into his shoulder and inhaled sharply as I heard the faint sound of a bell ringing somewhere nearby. He pulled away slightly and frowned slightly. "Are you expecting someone?" He questioned. I nodded my head quickly and squeezed my eyes shut before letting out a deep sigh. He frowned slightly before running his fingers through my hair softly. I leaned further into his touch and let my eyes flutter open and I smiled at him.He smiled back and leant down to plant a tender kiss on my lips. I hummed happily against his lips, tilting my head to deepen the kiss. His lips tasted faintly of mint toothpaste and I pulled him impossibly closer to my chest. His hands traveled down my back and under my shirt, caressing my bare skin soothingly as he ran his tongue lazily acro

    "They're beautiful. Thank you, Dad. What kind of flower is this?" I asked. He grinned proudly."Roses are traditionally associated with love but these roses will bring great happiness." He explained. I gasped and stared at him in shock. How could he have known that these were going to bring me great happiness? How could he possibly know? "Why would you do this for me? Do you realize what these cost?" I asked incredulously. My dad smiled sheepishly at me."I made these myself. Your mother used to grow these all the time so I thought I might as well give you some of her prized possessions." He explained. I smiled at him gratefully. "Please keep them safe, Claire. I promise you, no harm shall ever come to them. You'll see." He reassured me. I nodded and hugged him tightly."Thank you! Now I need to go shower, because if I don't, I won't be able to sleep properly tonight." I said apologetically. My father chuckled loudly."Of course! Go take your time dear. I'll call you once I'm finish

    "Thanks, Dad." I said quietly before walking towards my bedroom. I entered the door and slid it closed before falling onto the bed. I let out a sigh and placed my head into my pillow, closing my eyes as tears began to gather in my eyes again.I couldn't believe everything that was happening. My parents had given birth to our daughter only a month ago and things were still progressing. The doctor hadn't told us much, only saying that we were having twins. As far as I knew, they were healthy babies and that was all we needed to know. I heard the sound of heavy footsteps coming closer to my bedroom door and I instinctively curled up in a ball, hoping to hide away from whoever was outside my bedroom door. I felt my breathing become ragged as my eyes began to fill with tears again, knowing full well who it was."I'm sorry, Jake, but I can't do this anymore. The stress is too much."They're standing outside a wedding dress shop at the mall in the city, waiting to go inside so that they can

    There were some very nice dresses that he would love to try on. He wondered if Claire would let him pick something out for her. The last time she wore something that expensive was when they were in college. He sighed to himself, knowing that this was probably the most expensive dress she owned.After the sales associate handed her the bag, she paid and thanked them before making her way back outside. They had gone to the same high school, so they were practically attached at the hip. She hadn't dated anyone since, though. After graduation she decided to focus on her degree and Jake stayed single until recently. He was happy for her. For the past four years, Jake had been a proud father of three children. One of whom he had named after Claire's mother, Rose, who was murdered by the man she called a father."What are you thinking about?" Claire questioned, noticing that he was deep in thought.Jake snapped back to reality and grinned. "Nothing. Just wondering where to take you for dinn

    "Come on," he said, patting the space beside him. "Let's go get cleaned up."After changing into a pair of yoga pants, a tank top, and flip flops, Claire walked out of the bathroom. She jumped when she saw Jake sitting there. He put his magazine down and looked at her confusedly."You're taking too long."She shrugged. "Sorry.""It's fine. Go ahead and brush your teeth so we can head out."Claire did as told and brushed her teeth quickly before walking into the closet to pull out her outfit. Once dressed she went back into the bathroom to find Jake sitting on the bed, tapping his foot impatiently."How's it look?" she asked.He glanced up at her, his eyebrows knitting together. "Wow... you look great."Claire grinned. "Thanks."She walked over to Jake, placing her hands on either side of his hips. She pressed her lips against his, her tongue slipping inside his mouth to explore. He kissed her back hungrily, sliding one of his hands under her shirt and running his fingers over her bare

    "Are you hungry?" he asked. "Want me to make us breakfast?"Her eyes shot open at his question and she gave him a quick nod before pulling away slightly to sit up, propping herself up on her elbows."I think I should cook something," he added. "You should also take a shower and maybe try to get some more sleep."She groaned softly. "What kind of a guest am I? Don't you think I should be helping you with anything? I mean... I don't exactly live here.""You live here just fine, Claire," he said, placing a soft kiss on the tip of her nose. "It doesn't matter where you live or who takes care of you. That's what you're my wife now. No matter what happens, you'll always have a place in my heart.""Then... I guess cooking breakfast is the least I could do.""Sounds like a plan," he said with a smile. He reached down and removed one of her legs, moving it to the side of the bed. He sat up, swinging his legs over the edge of the bed. "Come on," he said as he stretched out his hand to help he

    Jake walked into the kitchen and placed his hands on top of Claire's shoulders. "Why did you stop working today?" he asked curiously."Oh," she answered sheepishly. "I forgot to eat lunch..."He chuckled softly. "Well I'll bring you something," he promised.Claire blushed lightly as he leaned forward and gently pressed his lips against hers. She relaxed in his embrace, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist. She couldn't help but feel completely overwhelmed by love for this man. He made her feel safe and content, which was something she hadn't experienced since she was little. After a moment she pulled away slightly and rested her forehead against his. She took a breath."What are we going to do today?" she asked hopefully."Whatever you want," he replied happily."Good," she whispered before bringing her lips back to his.Jake smiled against her lips and brought his hands down from around her shoulders to rest on her hips.

    The silence between them was comfortable and they both didn't seem to mind. They had become quite close over the past few days and they had developed some sort of trust with each other that they didn't previously have. For example, whenever they met in public Jake always paid attention to her and made sure that she was okay, whether she wanted him to or not. Sometimes they would walk around Milan together, sometimes he would take her out on romantic walks along the coast, sometimes they would make plans to get together to have fun at the beach. The only thing that was missing was his presence at her side. But as long as he was nearby Claire didn't mind spending time with him. However, when he wasn't by her side, she became incredibly nervous and uneasy. Whenever she had to endure his presence, she felt guilty.

    Jake remained quiet as he listened to her ramble. He then let out a sigh and placed his hand on top of hers. "Claire, slow down. Everything is going to be alright. You'll find a way to explain everything."She looked down at the table, letting out a heavy sigh. After what happened last night, she was beginning to doubt herself again. Jake squeezed her hand gently."Everything will be alright."She closed her eyes and gave him a weak smile. "I hope so."When lunchtime came around, Claire and Jake headed into town. Jake didn't speak very much during the entire walk there; in fact, he hardly said anything at all. After buying their food and taking a seat in the back of the restaurant, they started to eat."So, where do you live?" Claire asked once they were done eating."In an apartment complex," he answered vaguely."An apartment building? Really?" she exclaimed.Jake laughed softly. "Yes. I don't live in a mansion like you. Actually, I only live there temporarily. But you're welcome to

    She opened her eyes again after a short while. She turned her head to glance at him. She couldn't believe it. He was still staring at the water, lost in thought.A warm feeling spread throughout her body. He was beautiful. Even though the sun was shining brightly upon him, his dark skin was perfectly shaded by the rays of sunlight and glistened beautifully. His hair, which fell across his face, was slightly damp due to the salty air. She wanted to run her hand through his hair and comb her fingers through his hair, running her fingers through his thick dark locks, causing his hair to stand up wildly. His lips were slightly parted, showing off those perfect pink, puffy lips she loved kissing so much. His jawline was sharp, but not masculine. It gave him a feminine look, making it seem as though he had more curves than muscular. Her eyes traveled downward, admiring the muscles that filled his abdomen and chest. She could just imagine the feel of them beneath her hands. She licked her

    "Shh," he whispered, "don't worry. Everything will be alright." It took her several seconds to realize he was talking to her, and it took another couple minutes for her to register the meaning behind his words. She pulled away slightly and looked up at him.He looked concerned but at the same time relieved that he had finally gotten her to respond.She smiled weakly at him. "Thank you."Jake nodded before kissing her forehead gently.They remained silent for a few more moments until Jake started to drive back toward his house. She wrapped her fingers around his wrist and tugged lightly at his hand to get his attention."So…what are we going to do today?" she asked hesitantly, knowing very well that the subject of what they were going to do would probably cause him to start driving faster and she had never liked speeding down the highway, but she figured that he would probably enjoy the speed.He grinned mischievously at her and winked.
