A Lionel Si Casanova

Chapters. 48 & Sharing Bed

Reddick did not believe the sentence that came out of Bellina's lips. He looked at this woman with a astonished look. Is what I heard right? ask Reddick inwardly.

Seeing Reddick's shocked expression, Bellina realized something. It turns out he spoke wrong. The words sound ambiguous. It even seems to lead to something more sensual. What he meant was not that.

"I mean, we can share the bed. You sleep on the left side and I'm on the right side." Bellina repeated her sentence as well as explained. Now Reddick opened his eyes to hear that explanation.

"I'm getting enough sleep anywhere, Bella," Reddick said. He could hear the words of this woman. But now he understood that it was just a mispronunciation.

"Sleep in bed, or I'm out of the room" Bellina threatened. He knows exactly how Reddick would be restless when not sleeping in bed. It will torture him too.

"Okay, good Bellina." Reddick. Actually he was very happy with this offer, only that he was afraid that he would misunderstand again.

It turns out that sharing one bed with Reddick made Bellina unsettled. It's the first time he and Reddick have been in one small bed. Until his back was attached to Reddick's body. His heart is beating fast. It seems like he is agitated by himself.

Reddick himself was setting a beat on his chest. He's not calm. Reddick's head turned to look at Bellina's body that was on her back. For the good of his heart, Reddick planned to go downstairs and sleep on the floor mattress he had seen in the closet.

He looked up first to make sure Bellina was asleep. It was surprising because they both turned out to both want to make sure whether the two had fallen asleep. Their eyes clashed.

"R-red?" bellina was surprised.

"I'm sorry, I thought you were asleep." Reddick apologized quickly. She's afraid Bellina's angry. But this woman only sighed, not angry. Bellina finally woke up.

"Why haven't you slept?" bellina asked as if she had deliberately asked that first, to cover her heart beat that was falling apart from sleeping in one bed with this man. He's sure Reddick is as restless as he is.

Finally, they both sat on the head of the bed.

"I'm nervous" said Reddick. Despite guessing, Bellina did not expect that Reddick would say so.

"About what?" bellina asked as she pulled out a blanket to cover her body.

"You."

It's the umpteenth time Reddick's spoken frankly without covering anything up. Even this time Bellina could not immediately turn her face away because Reddick's gaze seemed to lock her up.

That sounds weird. It wasn't that he was next to her, but why did Reddick become agitated? bellina asked in her heart.

"I don't know what you're talking about" Bellina said without daring to raise her face.

"To be around you is the hardest thing for me. Not that I don't like it, but because I'm so happy I'm at a loss for words. Even I keep freezing when I'm next to you like this."

Bellina did love this man before she became her husband. He also loved Reddick after he died. But this was the first time he was pounding because of this man's sentence.

"I'm ... I'm not used to it either" Bellina admitted. Reddick. "It's not hard, but it's not used to it. Because all I see is you keep your distance from me."

"I never kept Bellina at a distance" Reddick argued. "I feel your eyes are too cold for me. I feel ashamed to be my wife."

"T-shy?" Bellina surprised.

"Yes. I'm a guy with glasses who only cares about work. You must have been forced to marry me because of my father's compulsion. Otherwise, you would definitely not want to marry me," Reddick said emotionally. He remembered Bellina's cold gaze when he saw her.

"It was Red's fault. I'm not ashamed. I also don't have to marry you. That was my wish too. Instead I thought you would not marry me, because I was just an ordinary woman. I certainly know who you are. It makes me look stiff and awkward for being your companion" Bellina explained. It seems like this woman is more emotional when explaining everything

Reddick was stunned by Bellina's confession. It turns out that all this time they have misunderstood the meaning of each other's attitudes. Not hate, but because both are clumsy until the thought that appears wrong.

"You're no ordinary woman, Bellina. You're an amazing woman who made me fall for you" Reddick said. Bellina's eyes sparkled. The warm and romantic atmosphere felt thick around them.

Bellina's lips were unable to say anything more.

"Don't turn away, Bellina." Reddick managed to hold Bellina's chin moving about to look away. They looked back at each other.

This woman looked nervous and panicked when she found out Reddick's eyeballs were staring at her lips. But when Reddick drew his lips closer, Bellina did not back down. Even when Bellina's lips were slowly touched by Reddick's, she was silent. Until Reddick dares to melu*mat lips that soft. They're kissing.
