Chapter 12: Sleep In The Same Bed

Not too long after, Gerard walked in with the doctor trailing beside him. For the first time, I took my time to stare at the man that calls me his wife. His majestic posture, beautiful hair, his long legs and that amazingly beautiful face of his. Less I forget, his heterochromia eyes were his charm and for a minute, I felt like it was like staring at Medusa the only difference is, instead of turning to stone, I feel like I'll be struck by the wipe of Aphrodite and fall helplessly in love.

The doctor could see my gaze on Mr Gerard and cleared his throat. I quickly turned my face around to prevent the situation from getting more awkward.

Gerard on the other hand did nothing to even notice how much I was staring at him and simply remained by my bedside with an expressionless face.

The doctor chuckled softly the asked some basic questions. "Mrs Jarek, how do you feel?"

I looked at him awkwardly. Mrs Jarek? This is the first time anyone is referring to me with Gerard's last name and I must say, it sounds quite awkward.

Incoherently, I responded. "I... I'm fine." I blinked twice and avoided looking at anyone. If Gerard had a doctor examine me, it means he already knows my predicament. What do I do now?

I nervously intertwined my fingers and picked my nails. Bowing my head and biting my lips painfully.

"Well ma'am, based on my diagnoses, this bleeding and dizziness were due to stress and I'll advise that you don't do anything stressful."

"I have taken your blood sample to the hospital and your test results will be out in a few days. Until then, I suggest that you don't do anything that would cause you to stress mentally and physically."

He turned to Gerard who still had an expressionless face and smiled slightly. "I trust my friend here will take good care of you. I should take my leave now." after saying that, he turned to leave.

The room was soon quiet and Gerard simply stood there like a mannequin with no expression on that sinisterly beautiful face of he's. But even though he had no expression, I could see that he looked like a cry baby trying to hide his emotions. This is the first time I'm seeing him in this situation.

I pursed my lips awkwardly and wanted to laugh at this attitude of his but this was not the right situation.

Watching him stand there without saying anything was like punishing himself unnecessarily. Maybe if I tell him I want to rest he would leave.

"I"

"I"

Both out words came at the same time coincidentally. I sighed and wanted to ask him to say what he wanted first.

"Go first."

"You may speak"

What is this? Once is a coincidence but twice is awkward. I decided to keep quiet for him to talk because the third time might just give me a brain attack.

"What do you want to say?" his voice was bold and it sounded like a melody in my ear causing me to have a tingling sensation in my stomach. 'No Ayla! Don't do this to yourself.' I shook my head and maintained my composure.

"I want to sleep," I said without hesitating for a second having him in my room was a problem for me considering the fact that my mind is starting to think for itself.

I tried to lay down on the bed but before I could move a muscle, he was standing so close to me and held my hand. I widened my eyes.

"What... What are you doing?" I shuddered as I asked.

He turned to look at me and our faces were so close that I could feel his nose on mine. 'why is the situation getting more awkward by the second?'

I widened my eyes and looked at where his eyes were staring at. He was staring at my lips and for a second, I imagined what it would be like if we actually kissed. I shot my eyes tightly to cancel all these awkward thoughts but my heart was pounding like a rolling drum.

He let go of my hand and I felt one side of the bed sink and my mind told me that he was getting into my bed. I jerked my eyes open and saw him on my bed. He carefully placed the pillow properly and pretended not to notice my stare.

I was short of words. What is he doing? I just said I wanted to sleep and here he is making it difficult for me to think.

"Mr Gerard, I..." I wanted to convince him to leave but he laid on my bed and held my hand.

"Stop talking now. Sleep" his voice was calm yet domineering. I wanted to protest because this is far from awkward. How can I just let him stay in my room and not just that, in my bed as I sleep?

"Um... I..." He swiftly got up and flipped over me. With his knuckles lifting his body and both his hands trapping me in the middle.

He stared deeply into my violet eyes but his desires were nowhere to be seen. This is the first time he is looking at me like that but I felt safe and knew his intentions were genuine. "Sleep Ayla. I told the doctor I would take care of you. So I'll just cuddle you to sleep don't think otherwise."

I hesitantly nodded and he slept facing the ceiling while I slept with my back facing him.

Seconds later, I felt his hands on my waist and I shrieked as I shut my eyes tightly. He turned me around and placed my head on his chest and one of my hands over his body to hug him better.

This was foreign to me but it was more comfortable and I felt myself dozing off within seconds.

Gerard stared as Ayla slept. 'Why is she so beautiful?' he wondered but Immediately shrugged it off. He didn't want to suffer the consequences of his thoughts so he decided to worry about other things but it was hard to think of any other thing when Ayla was sleeping so close to him in fact, right in his arms.

He knew that he had to protect her now that she has become his wife. She is now his responsibility but he feared that one day she would leave him because of his identity. If she ever found out who he really is would she be able to live with it? Would she get scared of him and run off?

For the first time in his life, Gerard was scared of rejection.
