watched me for a second, almost saying something, and then he stopped with a sigh."Then I rubbed you down with some disinfectant cream- that was when I was afraid you'd wake up. That stuff burns like hell, but you didn't wake up; I was relieved. I really started to worry when seven and eight o'clock rolled around, and you still hadn't woken up... I moved you around a few times- didn't want you to be too stiff or sore this morning. Just moved you like 2 hours ago, so that's probably why you feel so good," Liam said, telling me everything.I decided to try sitting up, so I went very slowly, inching my elbows up closer and closer to his ears. Liam noticed what I was doing."Wait, baby, hold on," he said, and his hands went to right below my shoulders. He put his hands flat against my chest, pushing me up very slowly. "Does bending your back like that hurt?" He held my gaze, obviously concerned, but I shook my head."No, not at all," I said with a smile, and he smiled back, this time his smile ALMOST reaching his eyes.Finally I had my elbows all the way underneath my shoulders, my hands near his ears, and Liam let me go, his hands running under my arms and down my sides. I sighed, content to be laying here with him like this.He looked up at me, watching the emotions as they dance across my face- he was always so good at reading my moods and my body language. Then he got a clouded look in his eyes, and I sighed again, for a completely different reason."Baby?" He looked up at me, his gaze soft and almost scared as he made eye contact with me. "How? How do you do this? I just about killed you yesterday, and yet you can lay here with me like nothing happened and this is just another morning." He watched me as I processed what he was asking, my mind turning it over as I came up with a good answer- how did I EXPLAIN my submissiveness to him?"You know, if you had asked me that yesterday, I would have walked out on you. I probably wouldn't have even given you an answer at all. But now... I don't know, honestly," I said, shaking my head. "Most girls, well, their normal reaction to that would have been walking out. That is what anyone would have done... who didn't love you the way I love you. Liam, I understand what happened, I see it was a complete accident, and I forgive you. It's okay that you lost your temper. Yes, maybe you didn't handle it in the best way, but now we both have seen the signs. I will stop you if that ever happens again. I should've stopped you when I heard you hitting me... you were breathing heavy, which isn't normal. And that was the point at which I was scared for my life. I should've used my safe word then and begged you to stop. Maybe it wouldn't have helped- or maybe that would've been the thing that flipped the switch for you, from anger to sadness; who knows..." I shrug slightly, shaking my head to show him that it didn't really matter. He just watched me, speechless, his eyes glued to my face.I held his head with my hands, my elbows braced on either side of him as I leaned down, pressing my lips to his in a sweet, soft kiss that left my entire body tingling."Just let it go, Liam," I whisper, my lips teasing his. "It's okay- just let it go. I've forgiven you already- now you need to forgive yourself if..." Then I stopped, pulling back a little to watch his face, horror slowly creeping across mine. He grabbed my face, locking my gaze."Baby, what?! What's wrong??" He sounds so worried, but the idea grew in my head like a disease, rendering me speechless.What if... what if he didn't want to be a dominant anymore? What if he didn't want to be my Master anymore, because I reminded him of all his mistakes?! My breathing got shallower, and my eyes un-focus slightly as a single tear slid down my cheek."Hey! Fallon! Please, please just tell me what's wrong! Did I touch you someplace wrong? What?!" He was frantic now, I could hear it in his voice, and finally I snapped out of my head."Sir... I just thought of something. No, you didn't hurt me," I said quietly, my eyes darting between his gaze and the comforter beneath him. He held my chin, looking me right in the eyes."Please, Pet, look at me, not at the blanket. What is bothering you?""I... I was just thinking about you forgiving yourself, which you seem ill-inclined to do. If..." I stopped for a second and took a deep breath. "If you don't, I'm just afraid you will lose interest in this lifestyle- lose interest in me, because I remind you of all the mistakes you have made." I finished quieter than I started, barely speaking at all, but Liam surely heard me.He gently cupped my face, letting his thumbs trace across my cheeks, his eyes soft. Then the fingers of his right hand and his eyes traveled down my jaw to my neck, where the small, silver choker rested around my neck."You know, when my parents had their twentieth anniversary, they renewed their vows," he said quietly, toying with the collar. My breathing hitched just a little as I feel his fingers on the sensitive skin of my neck, and I closed my eyes, trying to keep calm and focus on what he is saying. "It was a beautiful little ceremony- my mother got dressed up, and my dad was in a suit." He paused there, not saying anything, and my eyes were drawn to his face. He was watching me again, something behind his eyes that I could not read."Sir?" I asked meekly, wanting to know what he was thinking."Baby, maybe I need to show you that I still love you. You know, we never got married..." He quietly trailed off, and my eyes widened as his words registered in my brain."You... you mean..." I tried to find the words, shocked into speechlessness momentarily, and he just smiled at me, watching as my smile got bigger and bigger."Sir!! You mean we should get married?!" Suddenly I couldn't breathe- my head was spinning and I could hear my heart beating in my ears. He cupped my face in his hands again and pulled me down for a soft and sensual kiss, his lips warm and a bit wet against mine. The kiss grounded me again, and I took a deep breath, slowing my heart rate a little and melting into his hands, letting my whole body relax."Yes, baby, that's what I mean," he murmured softly, caressing my cheeks with his thumbs. "I love you, and I want to show you that you are the most precious, most beautiful, most amazing gift I could ever get." Imprint
