"I'm so happy to have you back" She cups my face and her dark brown eyes stare deeply into my soul. "Jeez, haven't you been sleeping, you have eye bags"

"Bailey it's-" I start to say but she cuts me off

"Shhhh.. you need to sleep" She places a light kiss on my cheek and climbs the bed. "Come on"

I climb the bed and draw her to myself.

"Whatcha thinking?" She wiggles herself in my arms and my body stiffens

"Uh.. nothing" I stroke her shoulder and she sighs.

"Tomorrow will be so hectic, I'll have to unpack and turn this big house into my house. I think we should rest now okay?" she takes my hand to her mouth and kisses the back of my palm.

"Goodnight Rhino" she yawns.

"Goodnight Lee" I kiss her hair.

it doesn't take a long time before she snores lightly. I smile and kiss her hair gently, careful not to wake her up.

It's so unfair that she sleeps so easily, so perfectly while I'm stuck here, unable to sleep, thinking of nothing in particular.

    Bailey"I saw him" I look at him and he looks at me confused"You saw who" he asksI try to sit up but he's broad arms keep me back in position"I saw him, the rapist, I saw a part his face finally in my dreams". I can't explain to him much of what I saw because my lungs may not permit me but I'm feeling so overwhelmed, for once I saw a part of the demon and I won't stop, fuck! even if it means me having this nightmare again, I'd gladly as far as I get to see his whole damn face."What!" Bryne exclaims. "That can't be true! I mean how, what did he look like"."I just saw a part of his face, his unforgettable green eyes and the side of his face, if I see any one that looks like him, I think I may know him" I choke on my saliva for no reason and I cough painfully. I need to do some breathing exercises."Jeez Bailey" he rubs my back and gives me the bottle to drink more water."Thanks" I clean my mouth and sit up, resting my back on the head board"But you saw him in your dream, how can y

    Bryne stirs in his sleep and blinks continuously to adjust his eyes to the bright room. I should've closed the curtains! "Coffee's beside you" I say without looking at him. "You're up so early?" His husky voice sounds causing a rippling sensation in my belly, a sensation that makes my nipples hard. "Yeah" I turn around and face him. "Good morning to you too" I drop a light kiss on his forehead and turn to go but he stops me. "More than that" he groans and I laugh and pull away. "Later hun, for now I have to worry about this splitting headache I'm having okay". "I can make it go" "Well, you're not an aspirin, no thank you" I sit at the edge of the bed "Oh" "That aside, I'm happy you slept this long" "Yeah I am. Thanks for the coffee" he sits up and gulps down the liquid. "What do you plan on doing today?" He asks "Um.. I plan on getting a few home decors from any store, grocery shopping and unpack" "Alright. Let's start right away okay? Freshen up and I'll take you there"

    Bryne "What are you doing first, grocery shopping or you'll eat first" I pull up in the parking lot of the mall She strokes her chin as if she's thinking deeply and I shake my head. "I'll shop first, eat later" "Do I need to follow you when you're shopping?" "Nah, I'll he quick about it, it's just grocery and some other decor items" "Really, you'll be fast when shopping" I raise a brow in askance "Yeah. I'm not shopping on clothes. I'll meet ya in an hour's time okay" She drops a quick kiss on my lips and leave the car. I have a wierd feeling as if something wrong will happen today and I hope it does not affect our relationship. I step out of the car to catch some fresh air and I lean on it and tuck my two hands into my pocket. This is definitely going to be a long wait because I'm sure Bailey is not going to be done in an hour, shopping with Bailey is the most tedious job ever and honestly, I wonder how she does it, how she keeps walking in rows of a mall, rolling a cart and

    Bailey I watch painfully as her heels clicks against the hard floor as she walks away. "Are you okay Bailey" Bryne asks and I blink twice before look up at him. "Can we go home now" I manage to say. There's a lot blaring on my head right now and I prefer to be calm about all this. "Bailey whatever she sa-" I hold up my hand silencing him. There just a thin band holding my sanity right now and I wouldn't like that band to be overstretched. "Home, please" I say calmly and stand up. I pack my things into my purse and I walk out of the food court. I need a lot of fresh air, my lungs need plenty air. Immediately I leave the food court, I breathe sharply, trying to remove the painful lump– as a result of what Bella said– from my chest. "Bailey just talk to me" Bryne holds my arm and turns me over to face him. "Is it true?" I ask, trying my best to sound calm. I think I'm going to loose it, fast, if I say another word. "What?" "You know what I'm talking about so don't give me that b

    The doorbell rings and I sling my top over my head and open the door. "Look at our baby girl come here" they all take turns to hug me and Vicky pushes into the living room. "You weren't kidding me when you said Bryne bought you a house", Vicki gapes. "This is so beautiful". "You know, I want a rich guy who'd take care of me like Bryne does", she twirls a strand of her hair and I roll my eyes. She's always looking for an opportunity to be a gold digger. "Bailey we all brought a little gift for you, since you haven't planned any house warming party", Rose hands me a wrapped box and the other girls follow suit. I unwrap each of them, starting from Rose' own. "Aw, you bought a SpongeBob pillow and a little sculpture of SpongeBob. Thanks a lot Rose", I throw my body on her, making her almost lose balance. Audrey's gift is a framed photo of all of us which is so thoughtful, Laura gets me a gift card worth a grand, classic extravagant Laura and Vicki, I mentally face palm myself when I

    He pulls me up from where I'm sitting drags me to follow him. "Bryne" I gasp as I feel his tight grip on me. He pins me to the wall of the living room and stares deeply into my eyes. I can't even read what's going on behind those green eyes of his. All I know is that this is the first time I'm seeing him like this. Before I can understand what is going on, he crashes his lips into mine, kissing me as roughly as he can yet very breathtaking. "Um.. we're going" All the girls except Vicki stand up to go. Rose pulls Vicki and drags her to go. "What the-" Bryne starts to say but I cut him off with my mouth over his. I'm putting all I have into this kiss, I'm telling him how sorry I am, how annoying this is, how much I want to keep doing this without getting tired. He hoist me up with my back pressed against the wall. He fondles my arse and I run my hands in his hair in every way that I can. He bites my lower lip a bit and I gasp. He kisses the side of my lips, trolling the kisses do

    He spanks my arse more as he thrusts harder into me. I bounce my arse in him and he groans. I know I'm near my release, I can feel the pressure building in the pits of my belly. "I'm so close" I repeat my previous action making him groan. He wets his hands and inserts it into me, smearing my wetness over my sex and my thigh. He bangs into me, pounding more into me faster, with his balls hitting against me which each thrust. "Bryne" I moan, writhing in pleasure as I reach my climax. He continues, picking up a faster pace. He pulls out of me and ejaculates immediately, some of his spewing on my opening. He pulls me to him and rests his body on the headboard. "I'm sorry" we both say together. "I'm sorry Lee" he kisses my hair and we stay there silently, wrapped in each other's warmth for a while. I'm so happy this happened and this feels a lot different, everything does, different like we've just gotten to another sphere in our relationship, a sphere that I put so much hope in tha

    "Shut up goddamn alarm" I groan and reach for the alarm and in my sleepy eyes, I almost throw it to the floor but then no remember it's no alarm, it's my phone. "It's morning already" I hit my legs on the bed and turn off the alarm. I can't imagine this is what I'll have to go through when I start working. I lay in bed for a little before I stand up sleepily and find myself in the kitchen. I turn on the coffee maker and I go through my phone for any call or message from Bryne but there's none. I sigh and rub my eyes. I feel a bit disappointed or something, today is like a huge day for me and Bryne does not know about it and I'm certainly in no mood to call or message him. I look at his number for a bit, contemplating whether to call or not and I finally drop the phone and pick up a mug to pour my coffee in. I take the first sip and for the first time, coffee isn't giving me the satisfaction or even the consolation I need. I hiss and pour out the remaining content of the cup into

    "Hello mom" I say impatiently. My mom always has a way to interrupt us. There's shuffling at the the other side of the line "Hey B, uh can you guys come over for dinner at dad's place, sorry for the late info I totally forgot"No way. "Mom, it's not possible" Bailey hits my side lightly "You can't turn your mom down" she whispers"You're with Bailey?" My mom asks. "Yeah""Great! Please put the phone on speaker" I roll my eyes and put the phone on speaker. I know Bailey can never say no to my mom and my mom knows that too, that's why she wants to talk to Lee. I already made a great dinner for the two of us, but Bailey won't think about that, of course it's my darling mother. I roll my eyes again and Bailey hits my arm."Hey Bailey, I know it's already late but can you guys come over for dinner at my place? I would've done this later but my husband already booked my flight back to Georgia and it's tomorrow" my mom's persuasive voice sounds and I'm sure it has already convinced Baile

    Bryne.I need her to understand that losing our baby wasn't her fault, I need us to go back to being us before the miscarriage. "Thanks Bryne, for every thing, for being my back bone, for being more than a boyfriend, for being so gentle with my heart" she maintains eye contact with me while stroking my face with her thumb."You don't need to thank me for taking care of you, you're my responsibility Lee" I kiss the inside of her palm. "let's go eat""Bryne I- okay, let's go eat" She steps away but I grab her hand and bring her closer. "What do you want Lee" I whisper over her ear and she claims my lips in a slow kiss. I want to go at her pace, I need to go at her pace even though all I want to do is to grab her and make her scream my name multiple times. She looked so sexy in the dress this morning and it took me all the strength I had, to stop myself from responding to what she was unconsciously doing to me, when she kissed me, I almost couldn't control myself again and then she sc

    Immediately I get back to my office, I sit on my chair and remove my shoes. I don't think I can survive another minute in this shoe. I sigh in relief and massage my feet once I take the shoe out. It's been four hours of intensive practice and thank God for the lunch break else I would've died inside that room. I got to watch other journalist do other shows and I was given instructions about how everything is going to happen. Honestly, I can't wait for Friday and from the look of things, Baddie can't wait for Friday either. Baddie really made the whole practice interesting and I already feel so relaxed with him. Baddie says he likes that kind of atmosphere and so do I. Baddie reminds me of Derrick, when everything is settled, I'll take Derrick's lunch offer. Baddie walks into the room smiling. He sighs and slumps into his chair. "Hey we could have lunch together. There's this place at the corner of the street, it's pretty good"."Maybe next time, I really can't walk in this shoes, m

    BaileyBryne pulls up at the parking lot of the building. Today is Monday, my first day at work and the excitement isn't as much as I expected it to be.Bryne squeezes my hands and I smile. Bryne has been everything since I lost our child. He has been over caring and I'm just so surprised at how perfect he's holding everything up in this situation. I hope my sour mood isn't going to affect my first day at work, I don't want to give out any first impression of being grumpy. "I know you'll do great" Bryne hands me a jar of cookie and I want to decline but it's my mom's cookie and who dares decline it plus he won't let this slide as I strongly refused to have breakfast. I take a bite and another and another till I'm done with four cookies. Bryne smiles, handing me a bottle of water. "Thanks" I gulp down the water and check my self in the mirror again for the 100th time today. You can't blame me for that, appearance matters as a new employee and a journalist at that. I know my life i

    I plop down after wearing my rubber gloves, I dip the floor scrub into the foamy bucket of water and I scrub Bailey's blood stain from the floor of my dad's kitchen.Today is Saturday and I'm happy Kara agreed to keep Bailey company even when she's supposed to go back to college today. I told the housekeeper and the cook not to come here today because I'm sure they would've felt obliged to clean the blood from the kitchen floor which I wouldn't like them to do. My mom told me to pick her up in an hour's time and I hope that I'll be done with this by then. I scrub the floor harder and wipe out the foam to see if all the bloodstain is gone and I repeat the process after seeing some stubborn stains still on the floor. I've not discussed the plans I have for the company with my mom yet even though I'm sure she'll be uninterested in it as usual. Sometimes I wonder if my mom actually loved my dad because shortly after my dad burial, she moved to Georgia to be with Khaka, her boyfriend wh

    BRYNEI lead Bailey into her house but she doesn't respond to me. She has been this way since she got conscious and I hope she gets better. I'm so happy she was discharged, I wouldn't stand spending another hour in the hospital. Kara has gone to my dad's house to get all the shopping bags over to Lee's house. I can't keep her at my dad's place, my mom may come home anytime and I cant explain anything to her yet. Bailey goes to her room and I follow her."Lee please talk to me, say something, anything" I can't bear the silence. "I was just so careless, I couldn't-" I wrap my hands round her waist and pull her to me. She can't blame herself for this, she shouldn't take all the guilt to herself. I'm at fault too, I didn't listen to her enough to understand. She sobs quietly and I rub her back. We'll work through this, I know we will. "Why didn't you tell me?" "How could I tell you, I was scared" She sniffs and I tip her head up to look at me."I told you I want to be involved in

    BRYNEI pull up at my dad's driveway and Kara immediately gets down. I'm so exhausted from the shopping and I honestly wonder how women do this thing and not get tired.Kara is worse than Bailey when it comes to this, we've basically bought so much that there's almost no space in the car for the bags. I know Bailey will be angry when she sees this but how did she expect me to handle Kara, Kara that literally scares me.I bring out some of the bags and Kara brings out some too. "Wow! So you guys lived here when you were younger" she stares at the building and I laugh."Nah, I spent most of my childhood with my nana, I don't think I've stayed for up to a year in this house, that's why we all call it my dad's house" I struggle to open the door and Kara follows me in. I drop the bags on the couch and go back to get the rest. I pack so much and Kara does the same but the bags doesn't finish. "We'll get the rest later, let's find Bailey to check out these stuff first" Kara rubs her palm

    I stare down at the pregnancy strip in horror.I don't know how to feel about this. It's scary! I can't be pregnant, I'm on birth control pills. Could some skipped days cause this? "Fuck" I place my hand on my forehead and shut my eyes tightly together. My whole life was about to start and this? I feel like crying but the tears aren't coming out. On one hand I'm happy about this, Bryne, the father of my child, he shouldn't find it difficult to accept but I don't want to pose anything on him. Both our lives are about to start for me to bring this up now. I'm finally about to start a lovely job and Bryne is about to take over his dad's business and join the elite club and this. I sniff and throw the strip into the bin. I don't know how to tell him about this, I'm not even ready to tell him yet. I hope he isn't awake yet.We'll work through this, that's what he always say whenever something goes an opposite way. We'll work through this.I place my hands on my belly and stare at my r

    "How was your week?" Bryne asks"I met Cole-ouch" I scream as a sharp pain passes through my knee."Are you okay" Bryne sits up immediately and I nod."It's just my knee" I relax my knee but Bryne uncovers the blanket and keeps my knee on his laps and starts massaging it gently. "Ouch!" I exclaim as he touches the spot that pains me the most. "Sorry about that, does it hurt here?" He touches another spot and I shake my head in negation. "Have you taken your pain relief?" "I'll take it later""I'll get it for you, where is it?""Over there" I point at the other couch and he goes over and brings it, with a bottle of water as well."Thanks" I swallow the pill and he gets the bottle of water and medicine bottle and keeps on the table.He comes back to the couch bed and continues the massage "I'm just happy you didn't hit your head when you fell from the stairs"."I'm happy too, everything just happened quickly, I was on the third step and then I see myself rolling down and hitting my kn
