Noah pov

"Stay"

After that word, shattering word, she closed her eyes and went into dream land but the grip on my hand didn't waver a bit

But if it was possible it tightened more

Good I do that?

Maybe just for tonight

I could forget myself

And it will be my little secret

Or even in the future a beautiful dream

So I get into the bed my body tense but as if she sensed me she scooted closer to me and my body relaxed instantly

I put my hand on her waist and pulled her closer to me until her face was on my neck and her hands circling my waist and I put my chin on her head

I kissed her forehead and muttered "good night princess"

And with that I went into the best sleep I ever had

--

I woke up to a weight on my chest and something robbing on me

Opening my eyes I saw my princess on top of me robbing her face like a kitten on my neck  and her beautiful bouncy hair sticking in all positions making me chuckle

For the first time she looked reachable almost even if I dare to say.... vulnerable

It almost seem surreal

Even if her face was still unexpresionable but it seemed less tense 

And then I remembered myself and our inappropriate position and me ogling over my boss

So collecting her small figure in my hands gently I put her beside me and kissed her forehead and cheek for the last time and got up from the bed

But before I was out of the door something caught my eyes

Her desk was filled with books

But not normal books but books for children and all of them talking about emotions

I frowned why would she posses such books

Does she have another project?

"Noah" her beautiful warm voice rang in my ears and I cursed myself for being noisy

I turned towards her and saw the most beautiful sight, hands down

Her hair was wild and she was rubbing her eyes like a kid I almost wanted to coo at her but of course I didn't

"Good morning" I said to her

"Good morning. Where are you going?" She asked in her sleepy voice

"Today is our off day, I will go to my family" I told her feeling a little tiny disappointed that I won't be with her

It's been a month, I am with her almost all the time

"Can I go with you"

I began to chock on air

"What?" I squeaked out thinking I heard wrong

"I don't know what to do today" she said simply as she wanted to walk on a walk

"Ok" the word left my mouth without thinking and my eyes widened at myself

But to be honest I was a little happy

They will love her

Especially Sam

"Thank you, I will shower and change if you want get breakfast in the mean time" I nodded my head with a smile happy that my stomach will quite down

"Rooose" I sang when I saw her cooking

"Noah what are you doing this early it's your day off" she said with a small smile

I pondered about telling her that I slept here but I quickly shook that thought away

"Cataleya want to go to my family's home"

She looked at me

Blink

Blink

Blink

"Uhhh.." that was all she said than she frowned and went to her cooking without saying a word still in her daze

Okkk??

I shrugged and began eating the plate she put for me.

After 30 min Cataleya came in all her glory looking as beautiful as ever

(That is the winning outfit thank you for the one who voted)

She nodded at rose and we began walking to the car

One thing I really hate about Cataleya that even if you put food in her mouth she won't eat it

I gave her an apple that I took from the counter. when we entered the car, she was about to refuse but the glare I gave her shut her up and took the apple from me and ate it

That's my good girl

I smiled and begin the car

I turned the engine the moment we arrived at our old small house

Feeling the regret coming over me because this place isn't for someone like my princess

But I was surprised when she got out of the car without a ounce of judgment and begin to walk to the house

I got out quickly fearing that someone from my neighbor will see her and I stood behind her protecting her

"I'm home!!" I exclaimed the moment I entered the house still surprised that she isn't disgusted by our home that need a lot of work

Sam walked out and his eyes widened when he saw Cataleya

"Are you the girl that is doing the cancer medicine" he asked Cataleya

She nodded her head and a smile graced his lips and came rushing towards her and extending his hand

"I am your biggest fan" he gushed at her

"Thank you what are you studying" she asked him

"I am still at school but I do a lot of research on cancer but I think I am not that smart yet but I have the biggest interest on stars and satellite, do you know anything about them?" He asked his voice full of enthusiasm

"I don't know much but I know that Stars are huge celestial bodies made mostly of hydrogen and helium that produce light and heat from the churning nuclear forges inside their cores." If it was possible his eyes sparkled more

"You're right they are  the building blocks of galaxies, of which there are billions in the universe. It’s impossible to know how many stars exist, but astronomers estimate that in our Milky Way galaxy alone, there are about 300 billion..."

Uhhhhh

Ok?

 I tuned the rest of conversation out

And began walking slowly towards my mother room

Step by step I arrived at my mother room

"Why are you looking as you saw a ghost?" My mother said amused

"You don't want to know" I said laughing when she gave me a confused stair

"Cataleya Romano is outside and Sam" I said and when her lips formed an 'oh' I knew she understood

And we begin to laugh

"Let's go meet your boss" I winced at the last word but composed myself quickly

"Hello" my mom said the moment we entered our small living room making the conversation of the two geniuses come to a halt

Cataleya stood up and came to my mother saying her usual greeting

Even thought her face was cold I knew my mother liked her because there isn't even a ounce of judgment or surprise when Cataleya saw my mother on a wheelchair

And that something my mother really appreciate

Because we all hate pity

I smiled feeling happy that my family loved Cataleya

Not dwelling on why I am happy

And like that the day went with Cataleya and Sam giving us a headache with their scientific talk and my mother and I laughing at our faces

"Make sure to visit us once again" my mother said warmly patting Cataleya hand who in return nodded her head

My brother hugged her making Cataleya freeze and me widening my eyes

Sam let go with red cheeks and quickly went to his room making my mother chuckle and go on her way

His first crush

I don't know if I should be a proud brother or a jealous one

"Noah I have a great news" Elijah came into the room with a big smile on his face but his smile died out when he saw Cataleya

"Eli this is Cataleya, Cataleya this is Elijah my best friend"

"Hello, nice to meet you" Cataleya greeted in her strict voice that she always use in front of new people

Eli shook his head quickly and said a cold hello

I frowned at his behaviour

"I will wait in the car" Cataleya said to me and begin to walk before I said anything to her

The smile on Eli face returned and he said quickly "I found a sponsor, he wants you to do a match with another boxer with crowd and everything so he can choose between you both"

My smile came full force and I hugged Eli

"Oh my god!! That's great"

"Yes you can finally leave your job that you hate and live your dream"

My smile whipped out of my face

Cataleya

I don't want to leave her, she is in danger she needs me Eli noticed my change of moods and he frowned

"Don't tell me that you changed your mind"

Before I could say anything he continue but his voice raised

"That is our dream from when we are little, you can't change your mind over an obnoxious brat rich girl that can't even smile and talk to us with superiority open your eyes and don't think with your dick"

I bit my tongue not wanting to loose my anger and say words that will hurt him, he is like my brother

But when I turned my back to him

Cataleya was at the door looking at my eyes
