She's My Sleeping Pill

When the two of them reached home, they flirted for a little while before deciding to take a shower separately. Cayenne wanted to wake up early tomorrow since they'll be working and will be going to the mall to shop as well. She needed energy. And she knew that if she showered with her husband, more energy will be expended because of him.

Thus, Cayenne showered first while Stefan took out his phone to make other notes while his wife wasn't watching. After her short skincare routine, she went out of the bathroom and let Stefan shower as well.

She opened their closet and looked for pajamas that they can wear. "It should be matching or that idiot will sulk again." Cayenne muttered to himself before pulling the royal blue pajama sets for her and for him. "This should be fine." She dried up her hair and let it hang loosely behind her while she put on her clothes.

As soon as Stefan saw he pajama that he will be wearing which matches Cayenne's, his smile couldn't be wider anymore. He was grinning from ear to ear while putting on his clothes.

"Wifey, let's buy more clothes for us tomorrow." Stefan stated as he hugged Cayenne from the back.

"We don't have enough space for our clothes."

"Then, we'll buy another closet."

Cayenne rolled her eyes at this unreasonable man behind her. "We didn't even have the chance to wear all the clothes we have here and we have more clothes in the other house. Let's buy more once we've worn all of them."

"Okay." Stefan replied dejectedly and went to his bed and sat quietly.

"What are you being sad for. It's not like the clothes will runout if you don't buy them tomorrow."

"How about we buy one matching clothes every month?"

Cayenne thought for a while. Since it was just one matching clothes per month, she thought it was acceptable so, she nodded her head. "Just one item per month, alright? Don't waste your money on these things. You have to save."

"I'm saving."

"Fine. Fine. You're saving." Cayenne climbed on the bed and laid on the space beside him. "Let's go to sleep. It's almost eleven already."

"I can't sleep." Stefan mumbled while watching her pretty face.

Cayenne was a bit alarmed. It's been a while since Stefan's illness acted so she was worried why he can't sleep all of a sudden. "Is something bothering you?"

"Nothing. It's just that, when I close my eyes, you will suddenly appear. And I can't sleep." His wide smile was telling her he's messing with her again.

Cayenne rolled her eyes at him and shifted her body to have her back facing him. "Go to sleep." She whispered while covering her face with the blanket. She felt her face was extremely hot and her heart was beating erratically.

Stefan moved closer to her and hugged her waist. "My dear wife, you've got to help me get some sleep tonight."

"And how should I help you?"

"How about giving me a goodnight kiss? You didn't give me my goodnight kiss yet."

Cayenne faced him once again and with a bashful expression, she kissed him goodnight on his lips. "Stop messing around and go to sleep or you will sleep in the couch if you keep messing with me."

"I won't. I'll behave now. I don't want to sleep on the couch." Stefan did what he promised and just hugged Cayenne to sleep. Sometimes, he's very obedient but there were times that he's also stubborn and naughty. Every day, he's studying his wife's expression to see what makes her happy and what's not. Her happiness has become his number one priority.

The next morning, they went to work like usual. They worked and flirted at the same time. They publicly displayed their affection which made other employees envious of their lady boss and their big boss. Nonetheless, they're still very efficient with work and Stefan didn't skip meetings as well.

In the afternoon, they left with Chris and went to the mall to buy gifts for Jade's commencement ceremony and for Savannah and Hawk's wedding. They didn't need to buy gifts for Luiz since they bought a lot of stuff for him already. He just didn't know about it.

"Let's get a small backpack for Jade." Cayenne told Stefan and led him to several designer bags' stores but she didn't find anything that she likes. "Let's go over there."

They walked from one store to another, looking for the best bag that she wanted to gift Jade. "If we can't find one from this mall, let's go the other malls. We have a lot time in hand to find something that you like." Stefan told his wife to encourage her a little. Of course, if he was the one buying, he would just pick whatever looked decent but Cayenne wasn't like that. She always wanted to give something that can be used and not something to be displayed.

They walked around for few more minutes when her eyes caught something. "Let's check that bag." Cayenne led her husband inside the LV store and found a cute bag. It can be used by adults but can also be used by kids. It was a small white backpack made of authentic leather. There were small compartments inside where you can store necessary items for hygienic purposes. "I like this. Let's take this bag."

"Sure." Stefan didn't even try offering to pay for that bag which was also another unexpected thing. Usually, he would offer to pay for whatever she likes to buy. Cayenne just walked to the counter and paid for the bag that she found. She took out her wallet from her bag and opened it, only to see an extra card among her cards.

"I don't think I owned this card." Cayenne stated while raising the card with Stefan's name on it. She turned to her husband who was only smiling at her. "When did you put this in my bag?"

"You told me to save my money so, I'm giving my card to you for safekeeping. You're better when it comes to handling our finances. You just handle everything."

Cayenne raised her eyebrow and smiled wickedly. "I hope you won't regret giving your card to me." Although it was like a threatening message, she knew that she won't be doing anything excessive with that card. It's his hard-earned money. She didn't want to spend it mindlessly.

After so many months of offering his own card to her, Cayenne finally accepted it. Though, he's not sure if his wife will use his card to pay for anything. Most likely, she will still use her own money.
