Chapter Thirteen.
The burning moment didn't stop until they made their way to the bed. Richard was on top of Mia as their mouths kept battling with each other, her hand moving slowly into Richard's hair and the other at his back.
They are still the moment when Mia suddenly stops to catch her breath. "Are you no longer mad at me? I'm sorry if I did something wrong the other time" She apologized with sincerity.
Looking at her face, Richard could see that she was not aware of what she had done earlier. However, he wasn't ready to tell her as the atmosphere was filled with tension.
"Forget about it! However, you need to take care of this" He said, his head moving down as he gave directions.
When Mia traced his eyes to the direction, her mouth opened wide the moment she saw Richard's dick outside.
Meanwhile, Richard had a smirk as he watched Mia's reaction. He kept loving everything she was doing and the ones she did already.
"Why don't you cover yourself? You can't open your thing this way!" Mia hit his chest before looking away as she covered her face; her cheeks had already turned scarlet in shyness.
This reaction only made Richard smile more; he couldn't deny that she was cute. Dramatically, he makes a pour and changes the tone in his voice to that of a little kid. "What do you want me to do when you take off the towel yourself? I understand that I'm too sweet for you to lose control"
When she heard his voice, she couldn't hold her laughter in but when Richard mentioned that she was the one that took it off, she bit her lips in embarrassment.
"Forget it! Good night." With this, she pushes him away and covers herself with the blanket while backing Richard.
Under the blanket, she was trying to calm her emotions as she was drained of embarrassment. When she finally calmed down, she was surprised when Richard didn't make any move.
On turning back to him, he was already asleep.
"Are you sleeping?" Mia, who was surprised, asked as he tapped the bridge of his nose, but she got no response.
Mia kept staring at his face and couldn't deny the fact that Richard was handsome; if not because of her newly discovered identity, she would have said she didn't deserve someone like Richard.
There are fresh feelings that come after feeling pain for a while; it seems the same thing is happening to Mia at the moment. She just suffered heartbreak not long ago, and now, she was admiring another man under the chandelier light.
"Mia, you are crazy!" She moves her head slowly before getting out of bed; she switches off the light, leaving the bedside lamp. Then she moved to Richard's side and covered him with a blanket before returning to her side and settling calmly in bed.
With her eyes closed tightly, only their breathing could be heard as they fell into deep sleep.
Not long after, Richard begins to groan, his head moving in different directions as he struggles to breathe. Sweat broke out of his skin, and his body trembled badly.
Before long, Mia woke up and discovered the situation. Instantly, she rushed out of bed and switched on the light, and then, he saw Richard in the most difficult position ever.
"Richard!" She rushed to his side, pulled him into a hug as his head rested on her chest, and she started patting back. "I'm sorry, Richard, I should have kept the light on!" "Please don't fight hard, I'm here with you." Mia drew him closer, resting her head on his head with tears brimming in her eyes.
A few minutes later, Richard began to calm down, and his body returned to normal, but he was still hugging Mia tightly, and his eyes were closed.
Mia sniffed back her tears; she was getting more scared of Richard's situation and couldn't help but regret her actions. While she was still blaming herself, a groggy voice spoke out.
"Mia?" He called.
Mia almost shouted out her lungs in excitement, but she refrained because it was already late in the night.
"I'm sorry Richard, I don't mean to switch off the light." She apologized, and more tears took her cheeks.
"It's not your fault, Mia; it's my nightmare," Richard tried to explain, but Mia cut him off.
"Please don't say anything, just calm yourself down"
Richard didn't bother to argue; he had just returned from a life-threatening situation. It is better to have a peaceful moment in her arms than to explain what can't be undone.
After spending some minutes in her arms, Richard regained his strength and had a dark thought that brought an evil grin to his face.
"Mia? Can you do me a favor?" He asked, his voice calm and gentle. Meanwhile, he was only trying to maintain the pretense as his voice was already back to normal.
Mia wasn't aware of the situation, she was still holding him in her embrace. The moment she heard him speak to her, she didn't waste time before responding. "What favor do you want? I'm all ready to do everything." From her perspective, Richard would probably ask her to cook, not knowing that Richard has another plan against her.
"Can you change position with me?" He asked in the same calm tone, but the grin never left his lips.
Mia was still confused and was prompt to ask. "What are you talking about? Exchange position in what way?"
"I should be the one holding you. Although I still appreciate the fact that I'm resting on your chest, it's so much more comfortable than my pillows. However, I prefer you resting on my chest and me holding you like that"
When he finished talking, Mia took a while to understand. Just like solving mathematics, she had to process what he said before understanding. And when she understood, she didn't hesitate to push him away.
"Ouch! I'm still not feeling fine!" Richard dramatized as he held his head.
"Don't be silly! I'm scared! I thought I did something to you, and I blamed myself for switching off the light, forgetting that you suffer nightmares." When Mia was explaining herself, her tears rolled freely, and Richard instantly regretted teasing her.
"I'm sorry for teasing you" He didn't plan to speak, but his lips betrayed him. Probably his heart also did the same by beating faster than expected.
With a firm and sharp voice, he finally admitted the truth. "Mia, I Love You"
