Chapter 48- Super Girlfriend
I paced around waiting for her to pick up but I wasn't getting any response, I was about to get out of my house and head straight to hers when I heard her melodious voice. My heart immediately calmed down.
" Oh Cole, are you done with dinner?" She asked, she didn't know how worried I was when she didn't pick up, the last thing I wanted to talk about was a dinner that went wrong.
" Are you okay Anna?' I asked
" Yeah, I am, why do you sound so worried?" Was she seriously asking me that? I specifically told her to call me when she got home.
" Didn't I tell you to call me when you got home, I was worried out of my mind when I couldn't reach you, I was just about to drive to your house, you're so stubborn," I groaned trying not to get angry, I was already feeling frustrated.
" I'm sorry babe, I just got carried away with talking to Mom and Bella, I was planning on calling you before going to bed," She said apologetically, I couldn't be mad at her not even for a second.
" I wish you were here with me," I said with a sigh, having her in my arms always made me feel better, kissing those lips and having her snuggle into me made me feel so much better.
" Me too," She whispered,
" How was the dinner?" She asked again,
" Anna, I really don't wanna talk about it,"
" I'd take that as it didn't go well," She said and I could hear shuffling in the background like she was laying on the bed and drawing the covers.
" I really don't wanna talk about it," I repeated.
" You don't sound so good Cole, you know you'd feel better talking about it,"
" Not right now, it's not something I wanna talk about," I said hoping she wouldn't press further, how do I tell her my father was planning to force me into marrying his partner's daughter?
" Do you want a cuddle?" She asked and I chuckled, she wasn't even here and she was asking me if I wanted cuddles.
" Why are you laughing?" She asked,
" How do you plan on cuddling me? You're not even here" I asked,
" Leave it to the super girlfriend," She said and I chuckled.
" Make a wish," She suddenly said and I found myself closing my eyes to make a wish.
" What did you wish for?" She asked,
" Can't tell you,"
" But I'm your girlfriend,"
" Still not gonna tell you," I said as I started climbing the stairs and going up my room.
" I've gotta go Cole, I'll see you tomorrow," I didn't want her to go just yet I wanted to talk to her some more. But she must be tired and wanted to get some sleep.
" Alright, my love, good night,"
" Good night baby," I said before the call ended.
I walked into my room and straight to the bathroom to have a cold shower, I still felt like my body was boozing with anger. A cold shower would calm my body.
After the shower, I tied just a towel around my waist and walked downstairs to get a drink. I didn't feel like sleeping or more like I wasn't feeling sleepy, I didn't like that I always had to fight with my dad, but each time it couldn't be helped.
I took a bottle of red wine and poured it into a glass and sipped with my mind far off. I was on my second glass when I heard the doorbell ringing.
I raised my brows in confusion, who could be here at this time? I wasn't expecting anyone.
" Coming," I said as I got up from where I was sitting and walked to the door.
You can't be serious, what is she doing here? It's late and she shouldn't be here.
" Girlfriend to the rescue," She said with a broad smile as she invited herself in.
" Anna, why are you here at this time?" I asked as I turned to her.
" Are you not happy to see me?" She asked, her face suddenly becoming sad.
" No that's not it, it's not safe to drive at night," I said as I placed my hand on her neck rubbing her soft skin.
" I'm here now and I'm fine, I just wanted to see you and make sure you were doing okay, you sounded so sad," She said as she bit her lip.
" I'm okay now that you're here," I said as I drew her to me and hugged her and I instantly felt like happiness was being soaked into my body.
" I know what you wished for," She said with a smile as she looked up at me.
" And what do you think it was?" I asked as I admired her beautiful eyes, my special cure.
" I'm not gonna tell you," She said and I chuckled, she was trying to do what I did earlier.
" Come on tell me, you asked me to make a wish so I'm guessing you'd know what I wished for,"
" Me," She simply said as she wrapped her arms around me,
She wasn't wrong, I had earlier wished that she was somehow beside me because I felt like part of me was missing, but now that she was here, I felt complete.
" You sure know you have a lot of power on me?"
" Do I?" She asked, feigning innocence.
" Yeah, you do,"
" Are you really okay Cole?" She asked me as her arms around me tightened, I don't know how it was possible but I felt secure in the embrace of this tiny woman.
" I wasn't feeling so good, but now that you're here I feel better," I told her truthfully.
" It's going to be alright whatever it is," I couldn't help but feel weak in front of her, and without warning, I picked her up and threw her over my shoulder as I started moving upstairs towards my room.
" Sometimes you behave like a caveman," She said with a laugh and I slapped her butt.
I got into my room and threw her on the bed.
" I thought you wanted to cuddle?" She asked as she watched me knowingly.
" We can cuddle later, but right now I want you,"
