Chapter 109 - CHAPTER 109

You are so gorgeous

I can't say anything to your face

'Cause look at your face

And I am so furious 

At you for making me feel this way

But what can I say

You're gorgeous...….

Amy sat on the bed now dressed in her pyjamas, the duvet wrapped around her legs as she fiddled with it waiting for Daniel. Her eyelids were becoming heavy with each passing minute, either he really took that long to take a shower or was deliberately doing it.

Just as she was about to slump he came out dressed in his casual clothes, ruffling his damp hair and without looking her way, went to his desk pulling out his laptop from the bag.

Amy turned to see the clock and it was past midnight.

"Daniel you should sleep, it's late and you have been travelling all day."

"I am not sleepy!" He replied sitting at his desk.

Amy felt a little guilty knowing he was doing this to stay away from her.

"Daniel.."

"Good night!" He replied, bowling her out and getting back to his work with no mood.

Amy let out a long breath before laying down to her side facing him. He can act childish for all he wants but she wasn't going to back out.

"Good night!" Amy said rather softly watching him do his work.

She observed how his brown wet hairs were ruffled in a sexy way, his jawline and face glistening in the dim light of the room. His intense eyes darted between his laptop and files as he typed away on his laptop. Something about him always made her heart flutter like never before. It was like he was lining all her stray emotions in the right path

How can she land in a relationship with such a man? He was the perfect rich and handsome gentleman girls dream about and to think he was her husband.

She was busy thinking when her eyelids started to feel heavy and soon she succumbed to her sleep.

Daniel was in no mood to do the office work, his head was already aching from the back to back travelling and work but he didn't want to face Amy. It wasn't like he had any problem sleeping with her, he could act like an adult and it wasn't the first time they slept together but his mind wasn't agreeing with his heart.

It was like a battle between his rational and emotional sides, every day she was getting more and more into his seclusion, the only thing disturbing him.

'She is again making a way into your heart'

But when he tossed her out of there, she was always there reigning his heart, this time only he buried his feelings there.

'Were you really able to bury those feelings, Daniel!' He asked himself. 

The answer despite the conflict was a clear no and that was frightening him.

His eyes darted to her sleeping figure, with each passing day she making it difficult for him to keep his guards on. She was laying on her side, face turned towards him. Her eyelashes were resting on her jaw bone as some strands of hair were falling effortlessly on her pale face.

She was knocking on the door of his heart and this time with such intensity that he was afraid it wouldn't take long for her to barge again. 

After a few minutes, he shut his laptop, closing his files. Turning off the lights, he placed a pillow between them before laying down to his side facing her.

"Why now, Amy?" He whispered before drifting away to slumber.

Amy stirred in her sleep as her eyes opened slightly to an unfamiliar surrounding but then her mind registered the events of yesterday making her sigh. The sun rays were already telling her that it was morning but she didn't wanted to get up, the bed was extra warm and cosy today making her snuggle closer to the pillow.

'Do pillows breath!' She thought, noticing the warm breath fanning her face. Amy abruptly opened her eyes fully only to see a handsome face just an inch away from her's.

She gasped internally, she was hugging Daniel's waist and he was doing the same. Her face was resting on his chest and her legs were circling his lower abdomen, she could even feel his thing beneath her leg. Did they sleep like this all night? A sudden tint covered her cheeks.

The ringing of the baby monitor made her jerk away from him, startling Daniel who woke up promptly oblivious to their previous position, looking at Amy who was standing near the bed tying her hair.

"Good morning!" She softly said, thanking Ozan for waking her up and saving her from the thoughts of the earlier situation.

"Morning" He mumbled huskily.

His voice was so raw and thick making a shiver run through her body. Seriously in the morning? she reprimanded herself.

"I. I am going to check on Ozan!" She muttered hastily before leaving the room.

Daniel rubbed his face, his eyes darting to the clock making them bulge out.

Seven in the morning and he was dead asleep, if it wasn't for Amy he was sure he would still be sleeping.

"Did I really sleep this long!" He muttered surprised, removing the duvet from his legs. He would always wake up exactly at 5 in the morning, his brain was accustomed to that routine. It was the first time ever in his life, he slept this long without a care in the world, no dreams and all. 

Shaking his head, he went to take a shower.

Amy came downstairs showered and Ozan beside her, she saw Daniel dressed in casual clothing seated in the dining room drinking his coffee and typing away on the tab with one hand.

"Daddy!" Ozan shouted, running towards him.

"Morning my baby!" Daniel said, hoisting him up in his arms and kissing his face. Amy also came to sit beside him.

"Let's get you some breakfast!" Amy smiled, placing a bowl of oatmeal on his high chair as Daniel settled him in.

"Daddy, eat!" Ozan mumbled, reaching out his spoon of oatmeal towards him. Daniel chuckled while eating a bite, then he turned to his mother doing the same before starting to eat. Both of them felt lucky to have such a mannered child who was barely two years old.

"You aren't going to the office today!" Amy asked, filling his glass with juice.

"No, I don't work on weekends, Amy!" Daniel replied, going back to typing on his tab.

Amy made an o-face realizing it was Saturday today. 

"I was thinking about planning Ozan's birthday, you know there are only two days left!" This seemed to catch his attention as he placed his tab on the table staring at Amy.

"Bthday partyyy!" Ozan grinned, clapping his hands.

"Yes, my son is going to be a big boy!" Daniel smiled ruffling his hair.

"Big bwoy!" He tried to copy, a chunk of oatmeal sticking to his side lip. Amy wiped it away with a tissue, chuckling.

"Yes, now finish your breakfast then we play with ele in the garden!"

He nodded his head continuing to finish his breakfast.

"I will ask Ashton to appoint an event planner!" Daniel spoke.

"No need…."

She was cut off by the ringing of Daniel's phone. He glanced at his phone, raising his brows.

"It's from the office, I will join you guys in the garden!" Daniel said walking towards his office.

Amy shrugged while eating her breakfast along with Ozan.

It wasn't until an hour later when Amy noticed that Daniel was still in his office. Leaving Ozan in the garden with Martha she went to check on him. As she neared his office door, she noticed it was open.

Daniel was pacing in front of his desk, speaking to someone on the phone or more like scolding.

"For the umpteenth time Ashton you work for me, not for Silas. You should have asked me before making the final arrangements!" He said in a raised voice flopping in his desk chair.

Amy slowly walked towards him, standing in front of his desk watching his somewhat furious expressions.

After a few more minutes of scolding, he hangs up rubbing his temples.

"What's going on!" Amy asked, tilting her head.

Daniel sighed sitting up straight.

"Nothing I had a business trip to France scheduled two months later but I don't know why that idiot Silas pushed it back without my approval"

'We have a plan for you guys!' Nadia's words ring a bell in Amy's mind.

'So this was their plan' Amy thought, stifling her smile.

"Are you going?"

"I can't reschedule it now. All the arrangements have been made and investors are ready to meet me. Besides, it's just for two days!"

"Uhm, can we go with you!" Amy asked, moving towards his chair. He could refuse it, she thought.

"Do you want to go?" Daniel said, staring at her.

"Of course, I always wanted to go there and we can celebrate Ozan's birthday there. He will be happy too!" Amy chirped.

Daniel hummed, making a thinking face. He remembered Amy always talking about going to France and Greece, her ideal destinations for vacations.

"It's okay if you don't want us to go!" Amy said a little sad, drumming her fingers on his desk.

"I didn't say that Amy if you want we can go as a family there!" Daniel let out with a smile, picking up his phone to let Ashton know but instantly he was tackled into a tight hug.

"Thank you, thank you, Daniel!" Amy muttered in his ear before pulling back, not giving him a chance to respond.

"I will go and start with packing, there's a lot to do!" Amy ranted excitedly, walking out of his office.

Daniel chuckled, shaking his head at her antics.. He forgot that she could be the same little child when it comes to travelling and waiting.
