Nyctophobia

Jia xin went to bed early, she just showered and climbed onto the bed hugging her teddy bear. When xi yi arrived from work, he saw his grandmother sitting on the sofa she was so busy reading a magazine that she didn't even notice xi yi

"grandma" xi yi called out. He was wondering why he was not seeing his wife, grandma looked up and saw xi yi. She stood up immediately

"xi yi is there anything you can do to make her feel better. Jia xin is really sad" grandma said worriedly

"why is she sad, did something happen" xi yi asked with his voice full of concern

" she didn't want to part with her family." Grandma answered and looked upstairs, xi yi felt relieved that it was nothing too serious

"Go to bed grandma i'll go check on her " xi yi hugged his grandma and climbed upstairs.

Xi yi slowly and quietly walks into the room, he caught sight of the figure on the bed holding a teddy bear, He smiled slightly wondering how a grown woman still holds a teddy to sleep. Xi yi sat beside her and softly caressed her hair. He couldn't take his eyes off her face, she had such flawless and soft skin, her lashes were naturally long and soft, her lips were smooth and pink xi yi felt the urge to kiss her but he ignored that thought and continued to caress her silky full hair. Jia xin slowly opened her eyes and blinked twice after seeing the handsome face staring directly at her face and even touching her hair, for some reasons she couldn't explain why she didn't tense up.

" are you still sad " xi yi asked so calmly that it almost felt like a whisper

" yes. i miss tang ning so much " Jia xin was shocked by her own self, she talked to him without fear

"You don't have to. you can ask her to visit when you miss her or you can just go visit her instead " xi yi touched her full cheeks

Jia xin felt tingles all over her body because of xi yi touch. Her round eyes just stared at xi yi she didn't even notice that her cheeks were already burning red.

" thank you xi yi " she finally managed to say

" from now own anything you want you just have to tell me okay" xi yi smiled slightly at her blushing face, all Jia xin could do was nod her head

" go to bed i will go take a shower" xi yi stood up to go to the bathroom but he noticed Jia xin tensed face

" don't worry i won't do anything to you" xi yi added

" No it's not that" Jia xin quickly corrected with a blushing face

" then what is it " xi yi asked teasingly

" i.. don't know if i will make you uncomfortable." Jia xin said biting her lower lips

" how do you mean " xi yi was trying to understand what she was saying

" i..i.. am ..a messy sleeper" she said the two last words while tightly shutting her eyes

Xi yi couldn't help but laugh, who would have ever thought that this meek and humble woman was a messy sleeper.

" don't worry i won't be uncomfortable. Go to bed" xi yi gave a mischievous smile and walked into the bathroom. Jia xin on the other hand was dying of embarrassment.

In the middle of the night Jia xin opened her eyes due to hunger she was shocked to see her self and xi yi hugging each other tightly.

'OMG Jia xin what did you do how can you be so stupid' Jia xin screamed inside her head thinking she embraced xi yi first not knowing it was the other way round.

When xi yi came out from the bathroom, Jia xin was already fast asleep. He climbed on the bed bed and embraced Jia xin what he didn't expect was she would wrap her arms around his waist and placing her head on his chest. Xi yi was aroused this woman was unintentionally seducing him, he slowly kissed her hair and tried to surpass the heat in his body it took him so much self discipline not to pounce on her.

He suddenly woke up, feeling the movement by his side. He looked at the figure beside him who clutch on her stomach. Xi was alarmed he helped her seat up

" are you okay" xi yi asked with so much concern and worry

" Am sorry to wake you up" Jia xin said with a frown

" i..i.am hungry" Jia xin added with a small smile. Xi yi let out a sigh of relief and smiled at her

" come let's get you something to eat" he slowly helped her out of bed, the moment he opened the door what welcomed Jia xin was a dim lighted place she immediately gripped xi yi's arms

" are you okay " xi yi asked her noticing her sweaty palms, he got no response from her. He stared closely at her face and saw that she was tightly shutting her eyes, he suddenly realized something and immediately freed her arms around him and went to turn on the lights. He placed both hands on her shoulders

" open your eyes " he calmly said to her

As if she was casted a spell upon Jia xin slowly opened her eyes and was finally relieved

"You have nyctophobia" xi yi muttered

" yes, since i was a child " Jia xin calmly answered. Back then she almost fainted when she woke up in the middle of the night and found out that her lights were turned off and the room was pitch black, she cried so much that day until her mother came in and helped her turn on the lights and had to hug her to sleep.

Xi yi and Jia xin arrived inside the kitchen, xi yi made her seat

" what would you like to eat " xi yi asked

" oatmeal and a glass of cold juice " Jia xin immediately answered because she was starving. Before she knew it xi yi put on the apron and started preparing the food

" you can cook " Jia xin asked looking shocked, xi yi just smiled at her continued cooking. Jia xin suddenly felt so happy it was the first time a guy was cooking for her and the mighty xi yi as well, she once heard that xi yi hardly smiled but he has smiled several times to her, she suddenly chuckles

" why are you laughing" xi yi asked.

Jia xin admired him for while she couldn't deny that he looked more handsome cooking, his straight nose, curved thin and pink lips, his full and black eye brows his perfect set of teeth, he was tall and has a well built body. He was just so perfect that she felt proud of her self for having such a godlike husband her smile deepened.

" Am i that handsome " he teased her, she blushed but didn't look away

" wang xi yi can i ask you something"

" go on ask "

" why are you not like what the rumors say"

"Am actually that way, but you are my wife so it's normal for me to treat you differently, you are an exception"

Jia xin immediately covered her face with both hands and ran to the dining room. xi yi couldn't help it he began to laugh at how shy his wife was.

Jia xin who was seating beside xi yi, was about to pick the spoon to start eating but xi yi was faster he picked up the spoon dipped it into the bowl and motioned for her open her mouth

" you don't have to, i can do it myself " Jia xin said feeling shy. As if he didn't hear her xi yi was still holding the spoon near her mouth, Jia xin could see that he was stubborn so she didn't bother him anymore. She opened her mouth and allowed him to feed her. xi yi would feed her, Pat her head like a doting father and give her the juice.

Meanwhile Jia xin's heart was beating so fast, her heart was filled with so much happiness. After eating xi yi cleared the plates, Jia xin had one fault and that was house chores especially washing dishes she loathed it so much back at her house tang ning did the dishes.

Getting into bed Jia xin was hoping for xi yi to hold her again she was wondering why she would even think that, as if xi yi knew what she was thinking about he wrapped his arms around her and hugged her. Jia xin body that suddenly froze when xi yi held her, slowly warmed up as she inhaled his soothing scent, she loved the perfume he used it was like a calming drug,slowly she fell asleep. Xi yi smiled at the sleeping woman in his embrace.
