Xavier: Not even a little bit. 

         Christiana closed her eyes and replied with a little uncertainty. 

Christiana: No...

Xavier: Open your eyes, dear. 

         And she opened her eyes on his demand. He looked into her green orbs and she into his black eyes. They kept staring in each other's for quite some time. Xavier's eyes lingered on her lips for a second and he finally broke the trance they were in. Being this close to her was arising some emotions in him that he did not want. He moved back from her. 

Xavier: So..

Christiana: Fine, you are a teeny tiny bit intimidating.  

Xavier: Stop lying to yourself, dear. 

            He opened the door and was leaving. 

Christiana: Where are you going? 

Xavier: To take a walk. You go to sleep on the bed, I will take the couch.

           And he left. Christiana removed her dress as it would be uncomfortable to sleep in it. So, she went to sleep in just her bra and panties. She slid under the cover and turned off the lights and went to sleep. It was going to be a long day tomorrow. 

           Xavier came back from his walk after an hour. He could not control his emotions when he was with her. He could not do the mistake of falling in love again. It took him almost ten years to repair his broken heart, he could not go through that again. 

           When he saw her sleeping peacefully on the bed, his heart was filled with warmth. She was looking so beautiful. No,no,no, he cannot think like this. 

          He went and took a shower and then wore only his boxers. He laid down on the couch waiting for sleep to engulf him. But that was not happening. He laid with his eyes closed trying to sleep but his mind was not letting him. When he opened his eyes, he saw that christiana has kicked her blanket. She might get cold like this. He went to the bed to cover her. When he neared the bed, he saw that she was sleeping only in her bra. 

         He licked his lips at the sight. Her chocolatey brown skin was doing things to his body. But,he controlled himself. He covered her with the blanket and placed a kiss on her forehead. 

Christiana: Hmm... Xavier. 

         Was she awake all this time? But then she stirred in her sleep. Oh, she was just dreaming. Wait, she was dreaming about me. I hope it is a erotic dream, thought Xavier. 

           He thought about sleeping on the bed beside her. Well, it was not the first time, they had slept on the same bed. And moreover the bed was more comfortable than the couch, so why not? 

           He got on bed beside her, slid under the covers. He was sleeping on his back facing the ceiling when he felt the person beside him shift. She pushed her body into Xavier's and his warmth engulfed her. Xavier turned to his side and wrapped her arms around her little body. Hmm... she said in her sleep. And with her between his arms, he also went into deep slumber. They both slept in each others arms all night peacefully. It was like it was meant to be like that. 

           But, the morning arrived too soon. Christiana woke up first but her eyes were still closed. Hmm, I could stay like this forever, this feels so good. She pushed herself more into Xavier subconsciously. Xavier groaned in his sleep. 

Christiana: Wait, that was not me,was it? 

           She said in her mind. She felt someone's arms around her, she turned around still in his arms to face him. XAVIER, what was he doing in the bed? Wasn't he going to sleep on the couch. But who am I to complain when this feels so good. Atleast, in his sleep, he doesn't look scary. Yep, I lied yesterday. He does look scary sometimes. But, I love his scary demeanor. Wait, no, I don't love him, or do I, I don't know. 

          Well, I am going to admire this handsome face while I can. When he is awake, he is too cocky for his own good. Well, even I won't deny his angel like face. Why does a devil get an angel's face? Like that's so unfair. Well, this devil is mine. Yep, I finally admit that I am falling for him. I am not going to tell him that, atleast not yet. Because I know he will push me away if I say it now. It was all because of that bitch Kristy, if she hadn't been in his life, he would be so happy and I could confess my feelings for him easily. But, because of that bitch, I have to wait. And I will wait, however long it takes, for you Xavier. 

          She ran her hand through his hair. It felt so soft in her hands. His always styled hair was now messy, and christiana loved his face without a wall in between them. She knew that Xavier always puts up a wall in front of people except when he is with his family. Yeah, he loved Joseph's family like his own. And that's why one call from Joseph and he kept aside his business and mafia, and came rushing to his help. 

Xavier: Planning to eat me up or what, dear? 

Christiana: You are awake. 

Xavier: Yep. 

Christiana: For how long? 

Xavier: Long enough to know that you are falling for me. 

Christiana: In your dreams. 

Xavier: No baby, in your dreams. I know you were dreaming about me. 

Christiana: How? I was not, you are lying. 

Xavier: Hmm... Xavier...hmm.

Christiana: You did not hear the full sentence. Hmph... Xavier, I am going to kill you. 

Xavier: Like you could kill the person you are falling for.

Christiana: Whatever. 

Xavier: You are not denying. 

Christiana: Well, its advised to not argue with dumb people. 

Xavier: Still not denying. Because you know, I will know if you are lying. 

Christiana: I am going to take a bath. 

Xavier: Run all you can, dear.
