The Accidental Wife (Emily and Julian)

"Do you want to go?" I ask Rosie while we're all sitting together in the backyard with our friends. Nobody expected to see her tonight after what happened and when the girls realized that she was here, she was practically tackled into a group hug. "I'm tired, but I'm having so much fun," she says, looking up at me. Currently, she's on my lap and we're all sitting around the fire. She has my jacket on because she got extra cold a while ago.

Rosie didn't I use to get cold that easily, but I know that since she has lost a lot of weight, this is normal.

"That's enough for today." I kiss her temple. I don't want to exhaust her so much. Not after what happened. "Everybody is already leaving." We haven't talked about anything yet, but it doesn't take a genius to take the hint. Everything is finally working in our favor. She is my girl again and I will do whatever it takes to keep things like that. "Okay," she whispers, and I I catch the small smile that gets drawn awn on her lips.

She gets up and I do the same. After saying goodbye to our friends, we both head to my car. It doesn't take us long to reach the apartment building since the streets are relatively empty. "Do you want to spend the night at my place?" I ask her as we get inside the elevator.

She presses number 7 on the elevator as she murmurs a quiet 'yes', making me smile.

"I think I'm gonna fall asleep in a minute." She yawns, wrapping her arms around my arm.

"That makes two of us," I agree with her.

Having her at my place as my girl again feels different. Everything is finally normal again. My life feels great and I have everything I want.

"Do you think I can wear one of your t-shirts?" she shyly requests.

"Go to my closet and pick whatever you want, cupcake," I tell her, making her smile. "I will take my clothes and sleep on the couch to give you space." Her smile falls when I say that, and a frown appears between her eyebrows. "There's a question I need to ask I to ask you." The shakiness in her voice is quite evident.

"Of course, Rosie." She can ask me

anything.

"Are we..... back together?" For a moment, she looks younger than she already is.

"We're back together if you want us t to bel back together," I reply

"I want you to be my boyfriend again. I want to fix everything I have done and show you that I really love you," she confesses, causing my heart to dance with joy.

I close the space between us and place my hands on her waist. "I'm yours, Rosie. I don't want to be anybody's boyfriend but yours."

"I love you, Šilas. I love you so much," she mumbles and stands on her tiptoes. I lift her up like how we used to kiss and enjoy the taste of her lips that I have been craving for so long. I don't think I can get enough of her.

"I love you too. More than you could ever imagine," I say when I force myself to let go of her delicious lips. "I'm assuming you'd like us to cuddle, huh?"

than anything." Her bright smile lights up my entire world

She takes a hoodie from my closet and goes to the bathroom to change while I change in the room and lie down on the bed, waiting for her.NôvelDrama.Org content.

I can't believe that Rosie is going to spend the night with me again. To say that I'm ecstatic would be an understatement. It's been so long since the two of us slept in the same bed and I miss everything about this. Waiting for Rosie to come around has been a tough challenge. Every day, I asked myself whether I was supposed to make a move or let her have more time to process all that happened. At some moments, I felt like time was too slow, especially when I used to see her with Everest. It was like I was being murdered in slow motion. I longed for her day and night, and that longing tore my heart apart.

"This is so warm. I'm never taking it off." I hear Rosie before I see her walking out of the bathroom in nothing but my hoodie.

The sight of her in nothing but my clothes is enough to bring me down to my knees. I'm thankful that I'm lying down in bed because if I had been standing, my knees would have probably buckled.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" She asks with a beautiful smile on her face as she fiddles with the sleeves of my hoodie.

"My clothes look so good on you, cupcake," I say, trying to take her in. How can someone look this beautiful?

"Good thing you like like

it on me because you're never going to get it back!" she beams, making me laugh. "I can't believe I'm saying this, but I miss having you call me cupcake."

"Come here." I extend my hand to her, and she shyly walks over to me. The moment her hand touches mine, I pull her on top of me. She giggles as I lock her in my embrace. She intertwines her fingers around the back of my neck and leans down to kiss my lips. God! She's actually mine again. It still feels surreal, and I can't help but wonder if one day I'm going to wake up and find out that I've been dreaming.

"It was so hard seeing you every day without being able to hold you or kiss you. Everything was incomplete without you and no matter what I did to fill the void in my life, I always knew that something was missing. More like someone," I say, caressing her long hair. My girl's s eyes glisten with tears and she hides her face in the crook of my neck. "I'm so sorry," she whimpers, and I shake my head. "Rosie, sweetheart, didn't tell you this because I want you to feel bad. I won't tell you that this is the last thing I want, because it's not even on the list of things I want. It's what I want to avoid for the rest of my life. I told you that because I want you to know that you complete me. Without you, I'm lost."

"I learned the hard way that I can't just be without you anymore she says as her fingers play with my hair. I tighten my embrace around her and kiss her temple.

I gently make her look at me and cup her soft cheeks between my hands. "Let's not think about that, okay? Not now at least,"

I say.

"I just want you to know that I'm so sorry. I never meant to hurt you. When I told you to get out of my life, I thought I was doing you a favor because I knew I hurt you a lot and caused enough damage. I wanted you to have a better life," she eyes. explains herself and another tear falls from her

I gently wipe it with my fingers and tell her, "Not once had it crossed my mind that you did anything out of bad intentions. I know you, Rosie."

She doesn't say anything else and I carefully turn on my side, while keeping her in my arms. She nuzzles herself in my embrace and I refuse to let go of her.

I don't care about what happened between us. She was in a dark place and I'm not going to hold that against her. All that care about is that she's mine again. I'm grateful that I get to hold her in my arms again and introduce her as my girlfriend. "Sweet dreams, cupcake." I kiss the top of her head. "Goodnight, icing," she murmurs. I miss this adorable nickname so much.
