Fiona slowly opened her eyes. She had a good sleep last night. But, when she was awake, she felt something on her stomach. It felt like someone was pulling her. Her legs had intervened with some other person.
Her face was flushed with fear. She instantly turned around, and her forehead collided with something hard.
"Ow!!" Both said in unison.
Fiona was relieved to see Justin snuggling with her, but she blushed immediately. But because of their close proximity, both jerked and sat up immediately.
"Shit! I am so sorry. I didn't mean to do that. I swear I didn't do it intentionally... I mean..." Justin started rambling like crazy.
Fiona burst out laughing, which drew a questioning look from Justin.
"It's okay. It's not exactly your fault. I like to cuddle." Fiona told him embarrassingly.
He sighs with relief. "Phew! I didn't want to upset you."
"You didn't."
They were both silent for a while.
"So, what is t
The next morning, the couple woke up a bit earlier than usual. But, unlike yesterday, today they decided to check out some of the tourist places in Paris. When Fiona was showering, Justin was checking out all the tourist places in the brochure. However, he had already visited Paris before. But that was because of his business; there were many places he had yet to visit. The Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame de Paris, Arc de Triomphe, were a few of the places that he would like to visit with Fiona. When Justin walked out of the shower, he saw Fiona dressing herself up. He noticed she was having trouble zipping up her floral print dress. He walked towards Fiona and stood behind her. He felt her body stiffen, and he slowly made his hand move towards her zip. He takes his sweet time closing it. He bent a little and said, "You are welcome." And turned back, chuckling to himself. Fiona's face was priceless. She was blushing hard. But
A week has gone by, and still, Justin couldn't say anything to Fiona, and today is the last day of their trip. Tomorrow, they will head back to their homes. "Hey!! What's wrong? You have been zoning out a lot since the morning." Fiona asked him. Worry was written all over her face. "Nothing, it's just today is our last day of vacation, and after a day or so, we have to get back to work." "Yeah, I know." She said sadly. "I want to say something." He blurted it out of nowhere. "Um, sure, say?" This was the perfect opportunity to pour his heart out. "Oh, I wanted to say that... The weather today is very pleasant. Don't you agree?" 'Seriously, the weather?' Justin cursed himself mentally. "Oh yeah, I guess." "I want to say something else." "Ok, go ahead." She said it carefully. Justin took her hands into his, and they fit perfectly. "Your hands are so soft." He said it unconsciously. "Thanks,
Justin kept one of his hands on her cheek and slowly leaned in. She closed her eyes and felt his lips on her. Sparks flew through them during the kiss. She had always read in a book about electricity or sparks passing through during moments like this but never thought that she would ever feel it. When Fiona kissed Justin back, he was beyond shocked. They were in the same position for a few more minutes until she pulled back to take a breath. They were both breathless. "I like you," Justin said with full honesty. Finally!! She was going to say something, but he interrupted her. "Please let me finish. I won't be able to say this to you again." She nodded. "I really like you more than a friend. I know you wanted to say that the kiss was a mistake." She opened her mouth, but he kept his finger on her lips. "But I can't forget what happened at this moment, and I don't want to. I know that we have only known each other for tw
The couple was on their way back to their house. Their brief honeymoon trip was unfortunately over. That means back to work-life, unfortunately!! "Hey, what are you thinking?" Fiona asked, interrupting Justin's thoughts. "About how I'd like to spend my time with you rather than working." He blurted out sadly. "Oh, come on. I thought you were a workaholic." She quoted, nudging him slightly. "Yes! But that was before you came into my life." He kissed her on the cheek. "Sir, ma'am, please fasten your seat belts. We are about to depart." The air hostess informed them. Both of them gave her a nod. "So where were we...? Oh, how you came into my life, and now I don't want to work because I want to spend my time with you." He winked. "You make it sound like a bad thing," she stated, shaking her head. "Nope, I do not. You made my priorities change within three weeks, whereas my mom and dad have been trying for years."
"Bloody hell." Fiona and Justin both said it in unison. "Surprise!" Said the two people standing in front of them with sly smiles on their faces. "Surprise!! Are you freaking kidding me? What the hell have you two done to this place? And you are telling me surprise." Fiona shouted at both of them. "Fiona, relax. Grace will clean this up!" Justin tried to calm Fiona down. Fiona responded with a look that said, 'Are you kidding me?' To which he just shrugged. Fiona gave him a warning glare, which made him shut up. She moved towards the man, who had a shocked expression on his face. "Look, Mister, I don't care if you are Justin's best friend. But I definitely know that you have destroyed my home, and you will clean this mess up within an hour." Beside him, Em was smirking. "Girl, you are helping him. You are not getting away from this." To which she tried to protest. "I don't care if you are my best friend.
"What do you mean by a fight at first sight?" Fiona asked them curiously. "Um, it's a long story." James tried to dodge the subject. "We are up for it." Justin stated. "Yes, I would really like to know why both of you vandalized our home? So, spill the beans." Fiona intruded. They all sat on the couch. Justin and Fiona were eager to learn their story. From what they remember, Emily and James met for the first time at their wedding rehearsals. But they never got the chance to interact. They have been introduced formally, but nothing more or less. "Where do I begin?" James wondered. "Beginning." Justin proposed. Before James could speak, Emily butted in, "I will start, as I was the one who came here first." Emily gave James a look which clearly stated, 'Don't you dare interrupt me until I am done talking.' "Well, I came to your house two hours before your arrival to give you a surprise. I know it's stupid of me to
The next morning when Fiona opened her eyes, she remembered about last night after a few moments. During the middle of their conversation, she drifted off to sleep. She doesn't really know what their reaction was, but she could clearly imagine it. Emily is throwing colorful words at Justin. What a delightful sight that might have been. "Penny, for your thoughts." Justin came inside with two cups of coffee. Her train of thoughts was soon interrupted. "Just thinking about Emily and James reaction." "It was a traitor's move to fall asleep in the middle of our conversation and leave me alone to deal with those two nightmares. But yeah, they were definitely shocked and angry at first. However, they are glad that we are giving our relationship a chance. So you don't need to worry about it." Fiona let out a sigh of relief. "I will talk to Emily in the office then, and yeah, sorry for that, didn't realize when I drifted off to sleep." "No worries, now
Well, that's for me to know and you to find out." Justin smirked. "You know what, Fi? Your hubby is really annoying the hell out of me." Em was irritated now. "What's gotten into your pants? I was just building suspense." "Well, you are terrible at it, then." James sounds bored. Fiona was yawning now. "Okay-okay, I am telling you. So, from now on, you'll be working for me." He clapped his hand. "Excuse me." Both the girls said it in unison. "Dude, you are not making sense to them." James butts in. "My dear wife and her scary BFF. From tomorrow, I will be working with Fi and you in your workplace. Instead of dad, I will be your boss." "What!!" The girls said in unison. "Yes, Fi. We will work in the same office." "How is that supposed to be good news for me? Fi is the one who is in a win-win situation." Em stated. "When did I say the news was over?" He smirked again. "What do you me
