Jaxson stopped the car and unbuckled Paige's belt. She didn't notice Jaxson's actions or the fact that they were home already. Jaxson leaned over and stroked Paige's cheek with his long elegant fingers. The soft warm touch had brought Paige back from her inner turmoil. She turned to look at Jaxson's face he was smiling at her but she felt she didn't deserve his smile and had nearly let him down so she looked away quickly to avoid his eyes.
"Look at me". Jaxson was patient with Paige he knew how she would react, he just wished that she would share her thoughts out loud so he could reassure her. "Beautiful, look at me."
Paige then turned towards Jaxson again, she raised her head and didn't see any blame or anger, he still had that breath taking smile on his face. She sat up and hugged him as if he was a lifesaving raft, she fitted into his arms and he embraced her back with love and care.
