❝Feisty woman❞

.•*•.

I don't know when but listening to Sebastian's voice (even when it's his angry or pissed off voice) lulled me to sleep and by the time that I woke for the third time today which I'm sure has turned to the next day but I can't be sure, he was gone. Somehow I feel like he was here and then not here at the same time. Like all of this had been my imagination. I sit up on the bed. Feeling a bit better but my body is still a bit weak and my muscles aren't happy right about now.

Looking over to the nightstand, expecting to see the laptop but it's not there, the nightstand is empty. I look around the room until I finally see him. Sebastian is lying down in the bed. Sleeping. Soundly might I add. For a moment I just stare at him. It's hard to imagine that he's actually my husband and that I've fallen in love with him. It's unreal to me but then again my life has been a whole lot of twists and turns, especially these last few months. But, seeing him sleeping there makes me feel... happy.

Somehow I can't explain it but waking up now I feel more happy than I would've ever been back home. And perhaps this is just the fever talking or the fact that I might be going insane but I somehow feel like this is real. As if this could be my future someday. However, there is also a downside. If I stay here I'll be a bird in cage when all I want to do is spread my wings and fly. It doesn't even have to be far but I want be out in the world with my freedom.

"If you're going to continue to stare at me, maybe not make it that obvious" Sebastian says. I jump when he opens his eyes and starts moving. I had become so lost inside my own thoughts that I had not seen him wake up. Blood rushes to my cheeks as the blush rises and I look away from him and back up a bit in the bed. We are much closer to my side of the bed than his so even when I'm almost at the edge of the bed, he's still so close to me.

I collect myself as I face him as he now sits. My earth beats faster in my chest but I ignore that completely. "I wasn't staring at you, I was wondering if you were asleep. I'm... hungry so I would like some food and I would feel awkward calling someone and you were asleep" I quickly make up but I get the feeling that he already knows that I wasn't telling the truth about that but when thinking about it I am quite hungry as I've not eaten that much. He raises an eyebrow at me as he chuckles. Then he stands up.

It is then that I realize that he's only wearing his underwear. Oh, my. I feel the blush only deepen as my face most likely looks like grilled tomatoes. I'm quick to look away but once again he chuckles which means that he saw that I was looking at his almost naked body. "There is no shame in looking, Fawn, we are after all married" He says and I don't know if it's possible but I think my heart just went out the roof. I hear him dress himself into something before he walks over where I am looking.

When he's in my sight and our eyes meet he raises an eyebrow at me. "You coming?" He asks and for a moment it is as if time stands still. Then I lightly shake my head. "Coming where?" I ask him quietly. The nervousness inside my body is making it hard to even think straight. Having him in the same room after I've almost seen him naked makes me nervous and I know that we have slept together (not like that) before but this somehow feels different, deeper somehow but I can't explain it. "To the kitchen of course, you were so hungry" He says.

He did catch me in a small lie and he's tricking me but I'm not going to allow him to win. I throw the covers off me, ignoring how my body is still a bit weak and then get out of bed and walk past him towards the door until I'm in the hallways and that is where I realize that I've no idea where to get to the kitchen for the mansion. The kitchen in the guest floor, that I know of but I'm sure Colt has already taken everything from there as he does have a bit of an appetite.

I turn around to face Sebastian who watches me with a smirk on his face and it looks like he's about to burst out laughing at any given second. "What's so funny?" I ask him. I'm a bit annoyed with him right about now. Crossing my hands over my chest and leaning against the wall for support I glare at him. "You're so feisty. I like it" He simply says as he turns around and starts walking. I roll my eyes as I follow him. He's so confusing all the time, one moment it's like he wants to say something and then the next he says something else which I know he did not want to say.

It's confusing me and that is why he is such a riddle, the riddle that I will have to spend the rest of my life trying to solve because I feel like I have to solve this riddle. "When you're better, I've a surprise for you" He tells me as he leads me on down the hallways. I've never been to this side of the mansion before, never wanted to. "What?" I ask him. Sebastian turns around to face me. "You're going to have to wait and see, Fawn" He whispers to me, his voice sending shivers down my spine and my heart skipping a beat.
