Can you mend my broken heart?

Placing a gentle kiss on her forehead, Raymond said,

"Nothing !!! You just rest. I will get you some water. You need to stay hydrated."

And then he got down from the bed.

She looked at the mighty fine man in front of her and her lips curved in a smile. She saw him going downstairs to the kitchen and thought,

"Even his back looks sexy."

Biting her lip she giggled as funny thoughts started creeping in her head. So she shut her eyes close and pretended to fall asleep before Raymond came back. She knew that he would definitely take some time to prepare lukewarm water for her.

And just like she had expected, after ten minutes, Raymond came back to the room with a flask and a glass in his hand.

"Akira !!!"

"Akira !!!"

Placing the flask and glass on the side table he moved close to her and realized that she had been fast asleep. 

Taking a deep breath, he pulled the duvet and tucked her in before giving a light good night kiss on her forehead and then on her lips. He sat next to her for quite some time without saying a word and then got up to change his clothes. 

After freshening up, he came back and slept next to her on the bed. 

"I wish I could know what are you dreaming about right now."

Saying that he stretched his arm and gently pulled her close so that she could rest her head on her arms and so that he could feel her breath on his chest. 

"What is he going to do next?", Akira pondered.

He let her rest on his arm like that for quite some time and then with his other hand he gently started stroking her hair, softly humming a silent lullaby. Every single touch of his finger was melting heart away.

"Will you always love me this much, Raymond?", she thought.

Then suddenly he stopped running his fingers through her hair. He let out a gasp of air and started teaching her face with his fingers. She could hear him talking to himself in a muted tone.

"You have to remember this face."

"You can never dare to forget this face."

"Wake up tomorrow and remember this face, Raymond."

And saying that very carefully he placed a kiss on her forehead. Then slowly his lips traced down and kissed the corners of her eyes. He touched her softly, tenderly, scared to disturb her sleep, but little did he know that she wasn't sleeping at all. Rather she was trying hard to control her emotions from sprouting out.

Next, he kissed the tip of her nose and slowly moved down to kiss her lips. He placed his lips briefly on hers for the split of a second and was about to retract, but in the next second, he found his lips bound in the warm embrace of hers.

Taken aback he opened his eyes and saw that the corners of her eyes were moist.

"Baby !!! You weren't asleep."

She shook her head and wiped the tears away.

"Why didn't you sleep? You are also tied right," Akira asked.

"I wasn't sleepy."

Raymond replied and pulled her close.

She knew that he was afraid of sleeping because the next morning he would forget what she looked like. Perhaps the thought of the next morning was freaking him out.

"Why did you pretend? I got your water. Drink it. It's in the flask."

Saying that Raymond propped her up first and then helped her to pour water into the glass.

As she gulped the water, she saw a sense of satisfaction on the face of her man and she wondered, "How can such a small thing make him happy?" 

After keeping the glass back on the side table, Akira said,

"I just wanted to see what you do when I am asleep, Mr. Pervert," Akira said and then lightly tapped the tip of her index finger of his lower lip.

"So I am a pervert now?" Raymond asked with a tone filled with a bit of annoyance and hearing which she took a deep breath and then inched close to him and said,

"No, I am."

She then held his face in her palm and gently moved forward to kiss him. He was sitting on the bed and she hovered atop him, parting his lips with hers. His hands which were resting on both sides of his leg now moved up to hold her waist. As the intensity and wetness of the kiss increased, she perched on his lap.

His restless hands started pulling her shirt which was tucked in her skirt. He swiftly lifted the fabric of the shirt and slid his hand underneath to touch the bare skin of her waist. As soon as his hands made contact with her skin, she whimpered and sucked hard on his lower lip. That had an instant tantalizing effect on him. 

Pulling her close, he rested his palm at the back of her neck and slowly bent forward to make her lie flat on the bed. And as she landed on the bed on her back, their lips momentarily disconnected but their eyes locked with each other.

"I love you so much."

"Undress me," she reciprocated.

He smiled and bent down to kiss her again. 

Clubbing both her hands together he lifted them above her head and held them together with his one hand while the other was busy unbuttoning her shirt. Under that white shirt of hers lied her rosy pink laces.

He looked at her and then let out a small laugh.

"Why are you laughing? What's wrong?"

"Nothing !!!" he said while trying hard to bite his lip to stop himself from laughing.

Annoyed she propped herself up with her elbows and asked,

"Are you going to tell me or not?"

"Erm... It's nothing."

"Raymond !!!"

"Ok fine! Fine don't fidget."

"What is it?"

Suppressing his laugh Raymond said,

"Actually you are looking cute like a barbie."
