Kelly’s POV
I opened my eyes slowly and the first thing I saw was Pierce’s brown eyes looking at me with love and admiration. The gentleness in his eyes always makes my heart race. The soft expression on his face that always makes me weak.
“I was too rough last night. I’m sorry,” he whispered while staring at my face.
I faced him and put my pressed palms between my cheek and the pillow. “Thank you.”
He smiled and gently caressed my shoulders. “Feeling better?”
I nodded and bit my bottom lip. “Those guys…last night…”
“I already reported them. They’re at the precinct now and I’ll make sure they’ll be punished.”
“I think someone else was involved. The drug was from the party
His jaws clenched. “Just as I thought. Don’t worry. Whoever is behind this, I’ll make sure they’ll be punished too.”
I squeezed my eyes closed. I felt his fingers gently caressing my arm and it went to my cheek, gently brushing his fingers on my skin.
“I called Ana. Snow is still asleep. So you should sleep more since it’s still early.”
I looked into his eyes again. “Do you think I’m doing the right thing? Do you think my choice was right?”
“You’re doing this for Snow. There’s no right or wrong choice. All you have to do is ready yourself for whatever the consequences will be. Be it positive or negative, you have to deal with it bravely and boldly,
I smiled at him. “Do you trust me that much?”
His eyes softened. “I trust you too much.”
I took a deep breath and moved closer to him. I squeezed myself in his chest as I closed my eyes again.
Under the white sheets, we’re both naked but I don’t mind. I want to hug him and feel his arms around me. After the stressful days, I think I deserve to rest and this is my rest.
I felt him kissing my hair. “What do you want for breakfast? I’ll call for room service.”
“Let’s sleep more and just go drive thru later.”
I fell asleep again and when I opened my eyes for the second time today, I saw Pierce sitting on the bed. I’m facing his back and he’s talking to someone over the phone.
“Yes, I will drive her home today.” His voice sounded so happy and energetic.
1 slowly pulled myself to sit while still watching him.
“No, we’re not, sweetheart. Your mommy hasn’t made me her boyfriend yet.”
He’s talking to Snow, I bit my bottom lip and that’s when he felt my stares and he looked at me.
“Hmm! You wanna talk to mommy? Alright!”
1 shot an eyebrow up when Pierce handed me his phone. He tilted his head and smiled. “She wants to talk to you.”
I accepted the phone while looking into Pierce’s eyes.
“Hello, sweetie?”
[Mommy! Good morning!]
“Good morning. Have you eaten?”
[Yes, mommy. I ate pancakes. You’re with daddy Pierce, right?]
I glanced at Pierce. He’s now preparing the food I saw on the coffee table.
“Yes, I’m with him.” Pierce glanced at me because of that.
I stopped in front of the elevator and looked at Pierce who’s waiting for me to come in.
