~Jayson's pov~ My eyes opened and the first thing I feel is a pang in my head as if loud drums are being played in it.Head ache,my worst enemy.I have no Idea what time of the day it is because the blinds are still on.Using my left hand to remove the towel on my head,I tried to stand up.God!!my head hurts,I hate being sick. Trying again for the second time when I feel my right hand being held, curious,I looked down to see someone peacefully asleep.Oh right,Emma,I remember her coming around yesterday,I was too weak to know whether she left or stayed.I didn't think she would stay,well not after everything. She is sleeping on a small stool but her upper body is resting on the bed, holding my hand.How uncomfortable that position must be.I know the reason she held my hand was to weigh my temperature over the night,she has always been so caring.She looks so peaceful and very much pretty asleep.How I wish she would allow me show her how much she means to me,how much I love her but I know it's all just my wishful thinking. She has avoided the topic like a plague and acted as if nothing happened and I played along because I don't want to lose her even if it means bottling up these feelings. She stirred in her sleep and with her eyes still closed she squeezed my hand slightly checking my temperature then the same hand found it's way to my neck to make sure before her eyes opened. When her eyes met mine,she smiled.God knows how much I've missed her,missed her smile,this unguarded one. “Good morning "She greeted rubbing her eyes. “Morning princess"I replied and maybe it's just my eyes seeing things because of my health but I think I saw her blush,I must definitely be seeing things. ~Emma's pov~ “Morning princess "he replied and damn I feel mushy again and couldn't help blushing.I brush it off because all my hard work will not go down the drain because of one endearing word.I take my phone to check what time it is and “s**t"I screamed standing up.It's freaking 9am ,the doctor is to arrive by 10 and I haven't even prepared breakfast. “What's wrong "I heard him say and I turned to see him holding his head,his eyes closed.How cruel I am,he's definitely having a head ache and I had to scream like that.I hate myself. “I'm sorry,I just realized the doctor would be here in an hour's time and you've not even had your breakfast,so freshen up yes while I go prepare breakfast" I told him checking his temperature.Then I reached for the towel by his side. Whatever made me think I could reach it without body contact sure did a great job because after reaching it successfully in other to stand back up I had to use him for support so I don't fall.Now my hands are on his chest and his hands on my waist ,eyes locked. “Okay"he replied.I stood up and left without turning back.I went back to my room quickly to freshen up then to the kitchen to make breakfast,by the time I returned he was putting on his shirt.Those abs got my eyes hooked,I mean have u met this guy? “I brought your breakfast "I said clearing my throat.“You'll eat on the couch while I make your bed okay" I said placing the tray on the stool I used to sit and sleep yesterday.He came over and sat down,I placed the tray in front of him so he would be comfortable. He already looks so pale, I'm almost done dressing the bed when I feel a pair of eyes on me.I didn't dare react or turn fearing the consequence. By the time I am done,I returned to see that he has not eaten more that three spoons.Sighing I took the spoon from his hand, scooped the food and fed him,then the next spoon went to my mouth.Yes I fed myself. Ughh , I'm a good cook, hundred percent wife material sometimes.
