Chapter 49- I Want a Couple of Things
I woke up in the middle of the night and I felt arms tightly wrapped around me, I couldn't help but smile knowing that she was here. My woman.
I looked down at her as she snuggled into me, every moment with her made me act like a starved man, I couldn't get enough of her, and the way she squirmed whenever I touched her made me feel things I've never felt.
My smile brightened at the memory of her begging me not to stop but it immediately dropped, replaced by a frown when my mind went back to what happened at dinner with my father.
Anna was the only woman for me and I didn't care what anyone said because I knew within me that she was the one, no one else.
I tried to pull away from her but her hands around me tightened, I chuckled as I laid back on the bed drawing her closer and dropping a kiss on her head. Nothing was going to stop me from loving her.
I went back to sleep with the love of my life in my arms.

I was awoken by light kisses being dropped all over my face and I peeled my eyes open to be greeted by warm brown eyes already staring down at me. I wanted to wake up like this every morning, for the rest of my life, every single day, I felt my heart hammering in my chest at the thought, the thought of waking up every morning with Anna, the thought of going to bed with her in my arms and the thought didn't seem bad one bit, it seemed rather perfect.
" Good morning my love," I greeted her as I drew her in for a kiss but she covered her mouth with her hand and I looked up at her with a raised brow.
" Morning breath," She mumbled through her closed hands.
" What morning breath? No amount of morning breath would stop me from kissing your lips," I said and tried to push her hand away but she quickly got up from the bed and ran to the bathroom and I couldn't help but laugh.
" So cute," I muttered.
I threw the bed covers aside and rose from the bed as I walked into the bathroom. I chuckled when I saw her brushing her teeth as I made my way to the toilet to do my business.
" Babe we can't be late for work today, we've got a lot of engagement because the ball of tomorrow," I heard Anna say from outside, the only thing I wanted to be engaged with was her.
" Alright, I'll be out in a minute," I said but didn't get any response until I heard the shower running.
" Anna!" I called as I immediately opened the toilet door and walked out.
" Anna," I called again and she turned to look at me in question.
" Are you having a shower without me?" I asked as I removed the boxers I was wearing and she looked down at my crotch with a blush, yeah now she was acting all innocent like she wasn't asking for more of it last night.
I got into the shower with her and my hand went around her waist to draw her close.
" Cole we have to be at the office early," She complained as she tried to pull away but my grip didn't let her.
" What? I'm not doing anything,"
" Yeah, you're not," She said as her eyes went down to look at my hardened member.
" I promise I'll be quick,"
That was a lie, anytime I was inside Anna I didn't want to be quick, I always wanted to study her body, and I didn't like to rush touching her. It was like she was my case study and I, the scientist, carefully studying her to know the special places in her body that made her moan louder, her sweet spot, I wanted to know everything about her body.
After the shower, well, we did more than just showering. I got dressed for work and she did the same with the clothes she brought over. I wish she could start leaving her things over, I just wished that we were like any normal couple where I'd ask her to move in with me. But we weren't, we were waiting for the right time and I swear all the things I want to do that I've been unable to, I'll do them. All of them.
I wanted to go to the beach with her, I wanted to take her to lunch, kiss her in public, hold her hand while we walked in the street, I wanted to take her to...
" Babe, what are you thinking about?" I was brought out of my daydreaming by her voice.
" You,"
" I'm right here, why would you be thinking about me?" She asked as she walked to me and wrapped her arms around me looking up at me with a smile.
" This might sound cheesy but it's what I really want," I said,
" What's that, I'm not sure it's cheesy if you're thinking that deeply about it,"
" I just wanna do the things couples do with you," I said as I pecked her lips.
" Things like?"
" Couple things..." I said with a shrug,..." Holding your hands, those types of things,"
" Baby, I'm sorry we can't do the things you want, but you do know that when everything is over I'd go anywhere in the world with you," She said and I could see the sincerity in her eyes and it made my heart squeeze, not in the way that it hurts.
" I love you," I said as I bent my head to kiss her.
" I love you more, come on let's go to work,"
" Gosh, now you're going to be taking your car instead of me driving you to work," I said and she laughed.
" Patience babe, patience,"
We walked side by side outside the house as I opened her car door for her to get in then I closed the door and walked to my own car.
We got to the office and I watched from my car as Anna parked her car and got out as she smiled at the valet before handing him her key and walking in, she had the power to bring out a smile from anyone.
She was an angel, my angel.
I opened my car door and also got out as I threw the key to the valet and he caught it before I made my way inside. I got into the elevator and pressed the button for my floor. I couldn't wipe the smile on my face, I was a happy man.
The elevator opened to my floor and I saw Anna waiting for me. She looked tense and worried. I was about to ask her what the problem was but I didn't need to ask any questions when my office door opened and he stepped out.
