Feelings

Cicilia's POV:

Seb sat opposite to me on the couch along with Angela. It's been a week since we went out for that dinner and to say that I didn't have any feelings for him would be wrong. I actually...like him...a lot. That kiss ignited the feelings in my heart for him. He has been on my mind 24/7, I just can't stop thinking about him.

As he played with Angela he kept glancing at me now and then and would smile at me and I really like his smile, one could literally die for it. His eyes are mesmerising and...ok, I should stop with this, this is too much.

Time flew by and he got up to leave although I told him that he could stay longer but he insisted that we should continue with the same routine.

As he was about to hand Angela back to me, she clutched him tightly, snuggling close to him as she buried her head in the crook of his neck and wrapped her tiny arms around his neck refusing to leave him.

"Come on angel, dad needs to go", I said softly trying to remove her from him but she wasn't moving.

Seb tried to remove her too but it was of no use, we can't even be harsh with her. She is really fond of him and loves him a lot.

I slowly removed her hands from his neck and finally, at last, I was able to take her back but the moment she came back in my arms she started crying.

Seb was sad to leave but I insisted that she would be okay, he then kissed my forehead(as usual) and Angela's too. Angela extended her arms towards him, gesturing him to take her but I told Seb that he could go. So with a sad look on his face on seeing Angela crying like that, he went away.

Angela didn't stop crying, no matter how much I tried. She wasn't even hungry cause I fed her an hour ago, she was crying for Seb.

It has been half an hour since Seb left and Angela has not stopped crying. I was helpless, so, I did what seems right to me, I called Seb.

"Is everything ok?", he asked as soon as he picked up the call.

"Angel is crying, she won't stop. Please can you come back, after she sleeps you can go back please."

"No problem darling, I am coming."

So, I waited for him to come while I tried silencing her. The bell rang and I sighed in relief on seeing him.

The moment Angela went in his arms she stopped crying and giggled while the tears streaked down her cheeks. She cuddled closer to him in happiness.

"I thought my ears would blast from her crying", I huffed and he chuckled.

"So little angel, what do you want me to do?", he asked caressing her cheeks as he sat down on the couch.

I thought Angela would sleep soon in his arms but that didn't happen. She was really active and playful and there was no sign of sleepness in her eyes.

After almost an hour, she finally fell asleep and I was glad that Seb was there. He walked into the room and placed her in the crib he bought for her.

"I should leave", he said to me as we walked out of the room.

"It's too late, you can...stay here for the night", I told him and yes, I didn't really have a problem with him sleeping in my apartment.

"Are you sure?" And I nodded my head in agreement.

"Thanks."

I moved to the kitchen to wash the dishes when I felt his presence behind me, turning around I almost bumped into him cause he was standing too close.

"Can you do me a favour?", he asked and I replied with a yes.

"Please marry me?", his question was the last thing I expected him to say. Though I refused him when he asked me for the first time to marry him but this time I might reconsider my decision.

"You know", he continued when I didn't say anything, staring in my eyes, "I never thought that I would have my own kids but when I got to know about Angela and when I saw her I thought that having kids is one of the best things. I fell in love with her the moment I saw her. And I wish that I could spend every minute of my life with her along with...you. I need you too by my side, Cicilia. Please marry me, I promise you all the happiness in the world. And I won't be able to see you getting married to someone else even because I have become possessive of you, you are mine Cicilia. Please?"

His words felt so true, a tear rolled down my cheeks and he quickly wiped it off.

"Ok", my voice came out barely as but he heard it as a huge smile broke out on his face and he engulfed me in a warm hug. A part of me said that this is one of the best decisions of my life and I felt ecstatic.

Pulling away from the hug he said, "Look, I wanted to do it in a much better way but seems like I have no other option so please adjust with me."

I looked at him in confusion as he reached his pocket ad pulled out a small black box, he opened it, revealing one of the most beautiful rings I have ever seen. I watched him go down on one knee as he said, "Marry me."

That moment was so cute but I folded my arms and said, "That sounds more like an order Seb."

"Sorry, but being authoraṭive runs in my DNA...ok, I will try again. Cicilia, will you marry me please?"

"Yes!", I exclaimed happily and he got up sighing in relief and slid that ring down my ring finger, it was beautiful ring that had a big diamond in the centre and a smaller diamond on either side of it.

"Who knew I would be proposing my future wife in a kitchen", he laughed before pressing his lips against mine in a soft, sweet kiss.

I once again melted in his arms as he wrapped them around my body protectively, I felt so safe and secure.

I teased him as I didn't allow him to deepen the kiss but as he nibbled on my lower lip, I had to. I tangled my fingers in his silky hair using it as a support to stop my body from falling.

Minutes later, we pulled apart as we both were out of breath, he rested his forehead against mine as the tip of our nose touched.

"Thank you", he whispered as I smiled at him.

Moving away I went to the room as he followed me and going inside the washroom I changed my clothes. And coming out I found him standing only in his boxers, damn hot!

I was staring at him with my mouth wide open, his abs and muscles were so perfect, I won't get bored watching it.

He slowly walked up to me and whispered huskily, "You will get to see a lot of this, darling."

I quickly closed my mouth and lowered my eyes, blushing embarrassingly as he caught me staring at him.

He chuckled deeply before gesturing me to sleep and as he was about to move out of the room, I grabbed him by his arms saying, "Where are you going?"

"To sleep...on the couch."

"You can sleep on the bed Seb, I mean we both can sleep, it is big enough for us."

"You sure?"

"Yeah."

He moved back to the bed and laid on one side, leaving some space for me to sleep. I quietly laid next down on the bed and I realise that it was not that big for us as I could feel his breath fanning my neck.

A moment later I felt some weight on my body and I realise that Seb has wrapped his arms around my waist as half of his body was rested on mine.

I felt a little weird sleeping like that so I started wiggling but then I heard him saying, "Stop moving Cicilia and go to sleep. I have never cuddled with anyone in my whole life now I want to do it with you."

I obeyed him and stopped moving and slowly I felt really comfortable sleeping in his arms as they wrapped around my body perfectly. And soon I fell asleep...
