The Accidental Wedding

20. Double Trouble

"Are you okay? What happened? You were shouting in your sleep." She asked me, a little scared.

"I-I have been having nightmares." I told her truthfully and she gasped.

"Since when?"

"The day you left me." I told her and her eyes clenched shut in pain.

"Shit. I am so sorry. I should have talked to you. This is all my fault."

One of the many reasons I fell for her. She was selfless; even when it was not her fault in the slightest bit, she was the one apologising.

"No, it wasn't your fault. You had the right to be pissed at me. I did those horrible things and you did the right thing by being angry. Don't blame yourself." I told her.

She said nothing, just hugged me, tight.

I loved her and I told her that I did. She didn't. I understood that no one could love a monster like me. Why would she love me? There was not a single reason why she would.

"Come on, go back to sleep. I am right here. I am not going anywhere." she said in her soothing voice and I laid back down. I felt her wrap a hand around my torso and I snaked mine around her waist.

The nightmares didn't return.

I woke up the next morning around 8. It was a Sunday so she didn't have to go to work; I let her sleep, she deserved the rest.

I walked to the bathroom and started to brush my teeth. I heard her feet pad through the carpeted floor and she walked in the bathroom in a sleepy stance. She had the sheets wrapped around her body to shield her from the cold. I handed her one of my sweatshirts that rested on the counter. She put it on and went back to keep the sheets back on the bed.

I brushed my teeth and realised that she hadn't returned. I walked out and saw her small form sprawled out on the bed, in a deep sleep. I couldn't help but smile at the sight. She looked so beautiful, even with bed-head and everything. I walked over to the bed and covered her with the blanket. I kissed her forehead and made my way to the kitchen.

Naina's POV-

I woke up and realised that I was wearing an oversized grey hoodie.

I was naked last night. How did this end up on my body? I thought.

I walked into the bathroom and brushed my teeth. I walked out and my nose sensed the smell of delicious food so I walked over to the kitchen.

Shiv was cooking breakfast, shirtless. He wore just a pair of grey sweatpants. I scanned his body shamelessly with a smirk on my lips.

"Done staring?" He asked me.

"Not quite." I replied with a wink as I walked over and put my hands on the counter.

He walked around and stood behind me as he snaked his arms around my body. His hands landed on my stomach.

"I think you are growing." he said quietly.

"What?" I asked in shock.

"Your stomach. Our baby. Remember that?"

I put both my hands on my stomach and felt a slight bump. I didn't even realise that had happened. I gasped.

It was already 3 months. Time flew by quickly.

In six months, I will have a baby in my arms. I thought.

"Oh shit." I said.

"You do realise that bump will grow much bigger. Right? Why are you so shocked?" He asked me.
