My Heartless husband

3.Bored

The next few days went by without me really seeing Noah. It did not bother me. He was a busy man and I did not really want to be around him. I was walking around the house when I heard voices from his office.'' I don't know what to do Alaster" I can hear Noah is frustrated. "You need to approach her differently, Noah, she needs to see she can trust you." I assume it's the Alaster guy. "She doesn't even talk to me or acknowledge me how the f**k am I suppose to do that!'' Noah is angry now, and I wonder if I should leave. "Noah, you have to make this marriage work you know that, you need an heir, and she can give that to you." I stood there shocked, so is that why he really married me? To give him babies? I turned around and walked to a closed door and when I opened it I saw a huge library. I walked to the books and ran my hands over the covers, there were old and new books, even first additional books. I took my favorite book and sat down to read, trying to forget what I heard. Soon I was so busy reading my book I did not hear the door open.

''I see you found the library'' I looked up, seeing Noah leaning against the door. I nodded and looked back at the book. He walked closer, and then he sat next to me on the sofa. ''Emmy, can we please talk a bit?'' he asked, and I looked up again. I nodded, putting the book down and turned, so I looked at him. "I know how we got married is not ideal, and I also know most people get to know each other first, and that is what I want to do if you allow me." I looked up at him playing with my skirt. "I would also like to get to know you, Noah, but you need to understand I am an independent woman and I do not like to be ordered around, I am not one of your servants." I say looking at him. He nods and then he takes my hand. "Okay I promise not to order you around, but Emmy, you need to understand I am used to being in control, so sometimes I would like to take control." I nod, understanding that he is a man with a lot of business, so he should be in control. " I am bored sitting at home all the time." I tell him biting my lip and he nods again. "How about we go out for dinner tonight?" he asks, and I smile for the first time in forever. ''I would love that.'' I say and he nods standing up. "Okay, be ready by 7 o clock" he says leaving the library.

I put my book back and walked to our room. I was excited about going out. I really can't just sit at home. I am going to try and talk to Noah about studying to keep me busy. I was busy putting on my last make-up when he came in. He walks to his closet and closes the door to get dressed. I sprayed perfume and took my purse waiting for him. He came out looking handsome and I smiled up at him standing up. ''You look nice'' he complimented me and I blushed a little.''thank you'' I said, and we walked out to the car. In front stood a Lamborghini and Noah opened the door for me. I was amazed about the fancy car. We drove in silence and I wondered how my friends were. I haven't spoken to them in a while. We arrived at the restaurant and I got out, hooking my arm to Noah. "Mister and Mrs Brooks, welcome," the host said, and she walked us to our table. It was weird hearing someone call me Mrs Brooks. We sat down and Noah ordered some expensive wine. It was quite between us and then I said. ''Okay Noah, you wanted to get to know me, so let's play 20 questions. He frowns and asks ''How do we play that?'' I laugh and explain to him, we each get 20 questions to ask each other and the other has to answer truthfully.

"You go first." he said sipping his wine and I nodded. "How many brothers and sisters do you have?" "Only Adam" he said, and I nodded. "Your turn" I said sipping the wine it was good wine. ''Do you have any siblings?" he asks, and I shake my head no. "I am an only child" I tell him and he nods. "Do you still have your parents Noah?" I ask and he nods. "I do, my mom and dad lives in Italy I will take you to meet them if you like?'' he asks, and I look at him shock. ''I'd love that'' I say and he smiles. We asked some random questions again, and then he asked me. "What did you want to do with your life before you became my wife?" I looked at my hands and decided It's now or never. ''I want to still study English literature. I was going to talk to you about that, I want to become a writer'' I told him, looking up at him and he looked surprised. ''Can you study it online?'' He asked again, and I nodded, ''before we got married I was looking at some classes online, and I was accepted in some of them, I will still have to go in sometimes to the campus to attend classes, but I will be mostly doing it all online.'' I say waiting for him to respond. He nodded, and then the waiter interrupted us, taking our order we ordered, and then I looked at him again, hoping he would say something. He looks at me and then said, ''I will pay for you Emmy. I don't want you to feel like I am keeping you from achieving your dreams, if that is what you want, I will support you.'' he said, and I smiled, jumping up and giving him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "Thank you" I said, sitting back down.

The rest of the evening went great, and he even suggested that I invite some of my friends to the house this weekend so that he can get to know them. I just smiled and said I would think about it. We finished our dinner, and then we went back home. Noah had something to do, and I walked to the bedroom and got ready for bed. I was lying there, thinking how good the evening was and if he keeps this up we can maybe make this work, but I still don't trust him. He went in and went to the bathroom and then came out with gray sweatpants and no shirt. I was literally drooling over this man, he was so hot. I looked away before he could see I was staring, and he got in bed lying on his back. I turned around lying on my side, and then I felt him wrapping his arm around my waist. "Emmy, I know you are not ready yet, but I would really like to make our marriage official, sooner or later." he said, and I just nodded. ''Just give me time please.'' I say and he kisses my neck. ''I will'' he says, and then he turned around laying on his side. I did not trust him enough to give him all of me, and I knew sooner rather than later he would be getting impatient. I am his wife after all, and I know that is what we should do. I fell asleep not long after.
