A Crazy Night

“Why are you lying in my bed? Go away! Go away!” Christina kicked Nathaniel repeatedly.

falling

Nathaniel was kicked in the shoulder, abdomen, and chest. Her feet are so small, but she’s so aggressive with her kicks!

She then landed her final kick on his head and gritted her teeth. “Get out of my bed.”

Nathaniel couldn’t bear to get angry when he saw Christina puffing up her cheeks angrily.

If someone else were to kick his head, he would’ve broken the person’s legs.

However, Nathaniel remained unfazed, and he traced his gaze along her legs.

Christina saw the weird look he had in his eyes and realized she was wearing a nightgown. She then quickly retracted her legs and wrapped herself up with the blanket. “Pervert!” she fumed.

In response, Nathaniel rubbed his forehead and muttered, “How could you say that after you kicked me? I’m in pain…”

He pretended to be in pain and rubbed the spots that were reddened as a result of her kicks.

With her head poked out of the blanket, Christina uttered with her watery eyes, “Get out! You’re sleeping in the guest room.”

“My chest hurts… I can’t move.” Nathaniel lay down on the bed with his brows furrowed and lips pursed. He looked like he was in a lot of pain.

Ha! He’s playing tricks on me… Christina wrapped the only blanket in the room around herself and rolled. over to the other side of the bed. With that, she created the most distance she could between herself and the man.

Nathaniel was happy to learn that she wasn’t chasing him out of the room anymore. I don’t mind not having a blanket. In fact, I would even sleep on the floor.

“Are

you asleep, Christina?” Nathaniel voiced but heard nothing in response. “Christina?”

Still, Nathaniel didn’t get a response.

Hence, Nathaniel inched toward her and carefully wrapped his arm around her waist.

He found comfort as soon as he felt her tender body. As he inched closer, he eventually rested his face on her head. When he caught a whiff of her pleasant smell, he couldn’t help pulling her into his embrace.

The following day, the morning sunlight flooded the room through the glass window, and the curtains. swayed in the wind.

Christina had a pleasant sleep as she felt as though she was sleeping in a room with a fireplace.

Upon hearing the alarm ringing, she opened her eyes and wanted to stretch her back. That was when she realized that she was in Nathaniel’s embrace.

At that moment, Nathaniel’s dashing face was inches from hers, and she could feel the warmth of his breath on her face. We’re so close to each other that it’s as if we’re one!

“Let me go, Nathaniel.” Christina pushed him and tried to free herself.

With his eyes shut, Nathaniel gritted his teeth lightly before replying, “Don’t move. I haven’t had a good night’s sleep in a long while.”

Little did Christina know that Nathaniel had been thinking about her before he went to bed every night. Hence, he could only sleep soundly whenever he was dog-tired.

Needless to say, he wasn’t a fan of those tormenting days.

Christina was having none of it, though. She tried pushing his arm away and biting it, but her efforts were
