" Cool? Just that? " He teased, bumping her nose lightly with his thumb.
She mumbled some incoherent words he couldn't quite make any sense of. He closed the door behind him and laid her gently on the bed. Her eyes fluttered open immediately and she locked disoriented for a moment before her eyes settled on him.
" When did you get back? " She asked softly.
" Minutes ago of course, I couldn't leave you there app by yourself, could I? " He teased, winking at her.
She smiled " Have you had dinner? " He kissed her on the forehead.
" Not yet, but I know what I would like to have for dinner " His tone was suggestive and Carla blushed at the realization of what he meant but chose to ignore it.
" Are you hungry? "She asked instead.
" Very " He whispered, his eyes dancing in the lights.
" Then go make some sandwich, I'm afraid I didn't cook, I was damn tired " She said in an apologetic tone.
He kissed the tip of her nose " It's fine baby, I won't die of hunger overnight so go on and sleep "
" Really? " She asked drowsily and slept off before he could think of a reply.
She snored softly and there was a drool just below her lower lip. He smiled, finding the action cute. What a peculiar girl she was, he thought to himself. Sighing, he pulled out of his clothes and got into bed beside her. They've not had a deep, heart to heart talk recently and they needed to. Though they were enjoying this fake marriage life and their sex life was good, but the reason they had this agreement in the first place had not been sorted out, his baby. He would table the matter before her somehow soon. Well, he really needed to sleep now, tomorrow would sort out itself.

" Where are we going? " She asked, as she finished with the last touches of her makeover.
" You'll see " Liam intoned and walked over to her. He pecked her on both cheeks and smiled " You look impeccable and beautiful as always, Mrs Blake "
She blushed but managed a comment too " I would say the same thing about you, Mr Blake "
" Shall we go please? " He asked, his eyes were filled with mystery and suspense.
" Definitely my Lord " She teased and snaked her hand under his arm.
Together, they went out. He personally gave his driver the night off, saying he wanted to be alone with his woman. He drove them to the airport and she frowned. Were they travelling? Why didn't him inform her beforehand so she could prepare? She wondered. Then slowly, a jet came into her line of vision and she saw the name imprinted boldly on it ' BLAKE ' .
Her mouth opened in awe and surprise " You own this?! " She asked, marveled.
