"Oh. You like seeing me wear pink underpants, don't you? From now on, I'll make sure to buy pink underpants for your sake, " Charles said, teasing Autumn as he suddenly dragged her into the bathroom. He stood completely naked, having already taken off his clothes. Autumn felt uneasy, not used to seeing him that way. "You…" she trailed off. "Put on your clothes!"
Charles found the scene in front of him amusing. Her wife had absolutely no reason to be shy. He wondered why she cannot look at him despite of all the things they had already done as a couple.
"Are you kidding? Do you want me to take a shower with my clothes on?"
Charles teased.
"Well… you should continue taking a shower. But let me go out first, "
Said Autumn, trying to run away immediately. "Where do you think you're going?" he asked, her efforts proving to be in vain as Charles caught her by the waist.
"I'm going back to the bedroom, " Autumn replied, covering her blushing face with sweaty hands. She couldn't seem to stop looking everywhere but him, obviously trying to avoid eye contact.
"How about we take a shower together?" he asked, whispering to her ears as he held her from the back.
His warm breath spread throughout Autumn's body, making her feel hot all over.
"S-Stop it.." she said, too shy to do anything despite liking what they were doing.
Charles remained steady as Autumn tried to stop him and push him away. "Don't tease me. Go take a shower, " she said as heat flooded her cheeks.
"I'm not doing anything, " he said as he started touching her.
"Have you forgotten that we already missed the night of our wedding day?
I woud never let that happen again."
Charles remembered that they signed a contract the night of their wedding day, agreeing on a three-point law stated in the document. He wanted to destroy that document whenever he thought about it. Especially now that they had a genuine relationship and things were completely different.
"Don't…
Don't you feel tired?" she asked, wondering where he got his energy. They were having sex every night.
He seemed to become
now, " complained Chris as she entered the dining room.
She happened to hear their conversation as she walked towards them, making Autumn blush with embarrassment.
She decided to come back to the kitchen, turning around to hide her face.
"What happened to her?" Chris asked out of confusion, looking at her brother in front of her.
"Here, eat your breakfast!"
Charles said, handing over the porridge, ignoring her question.
After finishing their meal, Autumn went with Charles to the hospital. He tried to make her wait outside, but she insisted to go inside the examination room with him.
She gripped his hands firmly, looking more anxious than him.
"Charles, you can hold my hand if you feel any pain. Don't worry. It will be fine, "
Autumn said, not knowing whether she was trying to comfort Charles or herself.
He felt her grip getting firmer when the doctor began the treatment. Despite being afraid, she continued to follow the doctor's every movement, her heart trembling at the removal of every stitch.
Autumn felt that the procedure was taking too long. Worried that there might be something wrong, she decided to ask a question.
"Doc, how is his wound? Is everything okay?"
"His wounds have already healed. I'll give him some prescription. He'll be fine soon, just don't forget to take the medicine on time, " the doctor replied without even raising his head.
