"Are you ok?" He was lying beside her, watching her as she slowly stretched her tired body. She was sure she had slept well because of the sleeping pill he gave her last night, but it still felt like it was not a peaceful one.
He slowly moved closer and placed his arms around her, cradling her in a tight embrace. "Everything will be ok," reassuring her as he placed a warm kiss on her temple. All she could do was snuggled closer to him, taking comfort in his love.
"Jacob, thanks for staying with me." She whispered to him in her hoarse voice. Finally, being able to cry all night made her feel much better. She was able to release all the pent-up emotions she was suppressing ever since the scandal and Brad's abandonment.
In all honesty, there was another reason for her grief. It was the realization that what she felt for Raf was far worse than she initially thought. She had fallen for him. Deep enough for her to feel the fear of losing him.
