《Finally》Chapter 25

(Edited)
I sit back in the seat. Trying to get comfortable with Amelia is still in my arms. Mr. Knight and I sit in silence. I'm thankful for it. I get sucked in to my head, thinking of what the heck is going on.
I sigh worried that Aiden stayed all by himself in the house. Ever since the incident I haven't felt 100% comfortable but there was no way I would ever tell Aiden.
"You know Lisa I have never seen Aiden act the way he did today, with anyone well beside his mother." Mr. Knight informs me. I look at him sideways. I face must have been in a yeah-right.
He sighs.
"How long have you work for Aiden? 6 months, maybe?"
"About." I say.
"Well, then you know how he is. Never sticking to any women and that everything is about him,right?" Mr. Knight tilts his head in a matter says that he was right.
I had to agree with him. I worked almost a year with Aiden and knew by heart that he wasn't like this, but I also knew that if he treated me right I would stay and agree to be his wife. Mostly for his benefit. I knew Mr. Knight is a smart man and he by now would figure out that we weren't getting married out of love but out of convenience.
This benefited us both greatly. Beside the fact that a guy like Aiden would never fall in love with someone like me.
I, on the other hand had more of a chance to fall and be heart broken. I really didn't want that to happen. I would be it guarded and lock in safe.
"I know your not dumb and you wouldn't by now have already figured out that, your marriage is fake." I tell him.
Mr. Knight lets out a small chuckle. "No I'm not dumb. I also know that the reason is getting married is because of his mother and well, for his own benefit, but even though this is all fake. I don't think he's truly pretending."
"Perhaps." I leave it agree to disagree.
"Perhaps." Mr. Knight repeats.
I take it as if our discussions is done so I turn to look out my window. I look up at the sky. Some stars shining brighter then others. At the moment Amelia decides to wake up.
"Hey, baby." I say. She slowly opens her eyes. Some of her brool wetting my dress. I giggle while I readjust her.

"Hey, sleeply head." Mr. Knight grabs Amelia's fits and squeezes it. She turn to look at him.
Boredom, clearly writen on her face, so she turns back to snuggling back to me. I adjust her so she'll fall back to sleep.
The rest of the way, Mr. Knight and I just sit in quiet. Lost in our own thoughts. We near Aiden's parent home. We drive up the driveway snd finally get off. I fell as if it's been hours in the car, when probably it's been a few minutes.
Mr. Knight gets out the car and walk to my side opening my door. I thank him and get off. Careful with a somewhat awake Amelia. The front door is immediately open and a very distress Mrs. Knight is greeting us.
"Oh, sweetie. Are y'all alright? Aiden just call me to see if y'all have gotten here." Mrs. Knight hugs us tightly. Tickling Amelia's cheek. I smile at her.
"Okay well I'll show y'all up to y'all room. We really don't have all the rooms decorate so is it okay if you stay in Aiden's old room?" Mrs. Knight asks as she ushers us up the stairs and to Aiden's old room.
"Okay if you need anything at all just yell for me okay? There is Aiden's old clothes in the drawers. So you can pick whatever you want. Goodnight and I'm really glad y'all are okay." Mrs. Knights pulls me into a hug. I awkwardly pat her back.
Over her shoulder I see Mr. Knight his face unreadable, he only nods at me. I nod back , returning my attention to Mrs. Knight.
"Goodnight." I whisper back. I close the door to Aiden's room and walk around slowly. If it was another time and I had energy, I would walk around and check out his room but quite frankly I'm to tired.
I settle Amelia on the bed. She's half awake. I open one of his drawer. T-shirts and pj pants rest there. Bingo. I quickly disregard my clothes and put Aiden's on. I walk back to the bed, Amelia has fallen asleep yet again. I remove her clothes as careful aspossible without waking her up.
Once get her out of it I put on one of her shirts. I pull the covers and slip into the soft, warm covers. I kiss the top of her head and drift off to sleep.
******
I feel something heavy settle itself on my waist. I'm being pushed against something, held captive. I open my eyes slowly.

Scared to move a muscle. Its dark outside, the clock on the nightstand reading four in the morning. Amelia is sleeping in my arms, so I carefully as I can, move half my body to check the other side of the bed.
Cuddling to my body as if I were a teddy bear is Aiden, he's lost his suit and is in pjs. No shirt. He really has a thing for no wearing a shirt. I try to remove from his grasp but he only tightens his hold on me.
I try again and again. However they are all in vain.
I decide to poke his arms, the one on my waist. That not does nothing. I really don't want to touch the part of his body without clothes. I poke his thigh.
"Will you stop just go to sleep." Aiden grumbles in a sleepy voice, that to gives me butterflies in my stomach.
I turn back again. I bite my nails, thinking he did spend most of the night up and with the police the least I could do is let him sleep.
Also cling to me like a monkey.
I settle myself on the bed, getting comfortable to fall back again to sleep.
I can't.
So I lay wake staring at the ceiling. Amelia hugs my front while Aiden in the back.
I close my eyes and drift off to sleep the warmth of the two people who are becoming very important to me.
******
"Morning." A voice chirps in my ears. I goan. Aiden chuckles.
Butthead.
"Rise and shine sweetheart. We have alot to do today." Aiden says but makes no movement to get up.
A child like laugh breaks out. I turn to face her. She's still asleep but laughing. Fascinated, I give her my full attention. Waiting for the next moment for her to laugh.
She giggles again.
Her chubby cheeks in a rosy color, her mouth open letting us see some of her teeth.
"She's adorable, isn't she?" Aiden leans over my body, resting his elbows over my head, looking at Amelia. I look up at him. He's staring at Amelia with some much warmth in his grey eyes, a small smile on his eyes. He then looks at me the smile still on his face.
"We have alot to do today."
"Of course. How's your house?" I ask but instantly regret it. The look of joy leaved his face. He sighs and it sounds frustrating.
"Yeah we do. Let's have breakfast first. We can later go home and check things out. We could leave Amelia with my mom." Aiden says.
"It's fine we can take Amelia with us." I argue. I really do not want to leave her alone.
"Their her grandparents too they can take care of her ,you know." Aiden argues back.
"I know its just-"
"I know you may be scared but we need to settle everything first okay."
I nods.
We get up.
I just realize that he's shirtless and we slept on the same bed. Heat starts to travel alll over my body.
Aiden stretches, lifting his arms up high. The already low pj pants on his hips slide off more. Letting just enough to tease you. His muscles on his back more defined.
I grab my clothes from yesterday and make a dash to the bathroom. I slam the open and lean against. On the other side I hear chuckles.
He was doing this on purpose.
Idiot.
I change quickly and get out the bathroom. Only to find or not find Aiden or Amelia in here. I walk out the room and make my way to the kitchen.
Already situated in their sits are the Knights and Amelia.
"Good morning." I greet everyone.
"Morning." They answer back in unison.
"Have a sit dear. Right there by Aiden." Mrs. Knight requests. I walk slowly to Aiden side and sit.
A plate of food is immediately place on front of me.
Amelia is beside Aiden eating. I dig in. I have French toast with fruit on the side and a big glass of orange juice.
We sit quit for a for minutes enjoying the delicious food, well at least I am. I vaguely hear the sound of a throat clearing but I am to occupied to pay attention.
"We have decided that we will get married in a month." Aiden announce.
In that moment the food I was about to swallow either came out my mouth or got stuck in my throat making me choking.
Like heck we are.
