I awoke with a groan, nestling more to the body holding me tight, a smile on my lips.
"William," I said gently and a kiss found my forehead causing me to open my eyes and meet with crystal green ones.
"Go back to sleep, your body still needs rest" he cupped my cheek, gently stroking it with his thumb. A hint of worry in his orbs. I blushed.
"I-I feel okay"
I felt very tired, and my eyes were heavy too but I didn't want him to worry.
"I doubt it" Something flashed in his eyes. "Did I go too far?"
I shook my head leaning more to his touch. "Everything was perfect" I attempted to move my leg to settle between him but that was a mistake on my part, I hissed in pain and a frown found my features.
It hurts so bad!
"It appears I did go too far" he was about to get up but I stopped him. "Ava, you need to heal, a bath will help"
I shook my head. "No baths, at least not now"
I just want to be in his arms longer.
