Thoughts

We stayed quiet for a while after reading the records. I asked Aaron to take it back to the archives so Jayden and I were left in his study, thinking.

I leaned on his shoulder and I felt him kiss me on top of my head.

I took a deep breath and finally broke the silence.

"Hey what's on your mind? I'm getting nervous if you don't say something." I said, pouting.

He chuckled. "Nothing. Just that fate really messed up our lives, but I was still thankful because I met you. Your father might be the reason mom was dead but you are the reason my heart was still beating." He said.

I tilted my chin up to stare at him. I couldn't see any anger or bitterness in his eyes, it was pure love and understanding.

"I'm happy I'm with you." I simply said. My heart was beating faster. I really am in love with this man. I thought inwardly.
