《Loveless Marriage》Chapter 23
Advertisement
It just had to be cliche.It is what it is. Urghhhh...
I stepped out of the bathroom and shut the door, only to notice that Daniel's eyes were watching me like a hawk. " Erm, the pants do not fit..." I muttered softly, although it projected quite loudly in the quiet room. It seemed that Daniel had been working on somethings on his laptop. Daniel carefully placed his laptop on the bed and got up, his eyes never leaving mine. " I will go and get some pants from my room..." I stated and walked towards my room, only to be blocked by Daniel. " You don't have to, if you are comfortable in that, you can just stay like that," Daniel took the sweatpants and placed it back into his closet.
" Ok..." I dragged the word and I walked to the bed. As I sat down, I could feel Daniel's gaze on me. He walked to the bed and sat down pulling his laptop back onto his lap. I picked my phone once again as Joseph flooded my phone with so many messages, continuing to buzz so many times. He still hasn't stopped thinking about that man. I laughed a little before I started to reply to him. I was about to change into a comfortable position when I felt Daniel's warm breath on my neck.
" Who are you texting?" He asked, peeking his way to look at my phone. I immediately placed it against my lap and turned around to face him. " It is just Joseph," I replied, Daniel's face pretty close to mine. " And what is so funny?" Daniel inquired, as I noticed that his laptop was turned off and placed away. " Oh come on, Joseph is harmless. He is just my friend," I sighed as I sat in a more comfortable position. " Yeah, a friend who might have feelings for you," Daniel rolled his eyes, looking bitter.

I looked at him for a while, before I bursted out laughing. " What's so funny?" Daniel asked as he crossed his arms. I continued to laugh until my heart's fill before I took in deep breaths. " Daniel, seriously? Joseph, have feelings for me? Daniel, we are just friends. that's all we will ever be." I giggled as I watched Daniel's face changing a little, from being a grumpy man to a pouting grumpy man. I laughed for a while more when I heard, " Hannah, stop it. You can only be friends, nothing more..." Daniel scratched his head.
" Hannah, stop. If not I will make you laugh for something else," He threatened playfully as I continued to laugh. He waited for three seconds, before his hands landed on my waist and started to tickle me. I bursted out laughing, trying my very best to pull his hands away from my body. I called out his name to get him to stop but it only fuelled him to tickle me harder. When he stopped, I was panting hard for air and staring up at Daniel. He was staring back at me with a small smile dancing on his lips.
Daniel leaned down slowly and placed a small peck on my lips before laying his head in the crook of my neck. He shifted his weight so that he would not be crushing me with his body. I could feel his breath against my neck. His arms wrapped around my waist and his legs tangled up with mine. He could definitely feel my heart beating like crazy against my chest. " Good night, Hannah," Daniel whispered against my neck before placing a small kiss on it. I reached up to the switch and turned the lights off. Daniel's arms tightened comfortably as I hesitantly wrapped one arm around his body and the letting my hand sink into his hair. I played with his hair softly as I started a conversation with myself in my head.

Me: Why does Daniel have to be so cute suddenly??
My mind: Maybe he really likes you?
Me: But he hated me before. He didn't even like to stay in the same place as me.
My mind: True, he did hurt you very badly earlier. But that is in the past. He has been really affectionate and caring.
Me: Why would he suddenly do that? It is so out of the blue...
My mind: Maybe you shouldn't be thinking about this right now. You can feel Daniel in your arms, what else could you possibly need?
Me: His hair is so softtttttt. This man is making me fall in love with him for the second time.
My mind: Just be grateful for the moment. You would never know when something bad might happen.
Me: I have to be very cautious from now on...
My mind: I guess you can be free tonight.
I slowly caressed Daniel's hair and listened to the peaceful sound of the night. I had been really busy that I did not have time to notice how peaceful the night had been. Technically, I had not a peaceful night to enjoy the silence. I sighed softly and focused on Daniel's heart beats. Soon, I had drifted off to sleep.
I peeled my eyes open slowly as awoke from my peaceful slumber. I hummed softly for no particular reason and slowly turned my head below, half expecting to see his face. " I am up here," Daniel informed, his voice sounding from above. I looked up slowly as I saw his gorgeous face looking down at me. " Well, good morning to you too." Daniel whispered, his beautiful smile on his lips.
" Morning, how did I end up like this?" I asked, unconsciously pulling my body to his. Daniel chuckled slightly before replying, " We moved. Well, I moved and pulled you with me," I nodded, before resting my head back on his chest. Daniel hummed slightly and wound his arms around my body to his. We laid on our bed for sometime, just enjoying each other's company. We did not have to say anything to push away that silence. The silence ensured that we were comfortable with each other.
And this is what I want to have for the rest of my life...
