Chapter 12


    We are each of us angels with only one wing. And we can only fly while embracing each other. –

    Previously…


    Then they heard a throat clearing and they turned and saw…


    … Mrs. Hale, looking down at them fondly and smiling. Gisele’s cheeks heated up in embarra**ment


    when she realized the old woman had heard everything they had said.


    Mrs. Haleughed heartily and said, “Honey, don’t be embarra**ed, I was young once too you know?


    Anyway, I heardughter and decided toe see what was happening here? *looks in Callie’s


    direction, sees she is engrossed in her TV show, whispers*, You’ve changed this home, Gisele. That


    man should definitely keep you”, then she went out.


    Gisele cursed her quick to blush skin and knew that she probably looked like a tomato right now.


    Callie looked at her with wide curious eyes and said, “Gigi, you rwed. Sick?”


    Giseleughed then patted Callie’s back and said, “No, bébé, I’m perfectly fine”


    Gisele continued watching the shows andughing until Callie eximed,


    “Daddy,e join us. It’s fenny(funny)!”


    Gisele turned towards te and felt her cheeks heat up as she remembered their kiss.


    te was hesitating and Callie pouted then pulled the puppy dog face on him, “Please, Daddy.


    Please?” te couldn’t resist so he sat down on the couch and pulled Callie into his arms.


    Soon enough, Callie was asleep and te took it upon himself to put her in bed.


    Gisele smiled at the sight and as she wanted to enter her own room, she felt a strong hand on her arm.


    “Did you think you could run away from me again?”, te asked in his deep and husky voice.

    Gisele turned towards him with wide eyes and said, “I’m not trying to run away from you, I just want


    to… read”, she finishedmely.


    te chuckled and that sound turned her insides to mush. “Really?”, he asked with amus****t coating


    his voice. Then he pushed her gently into the room and entered too, then bolted the door and took the


    key.


    Then he smiled a devilish smile in her direction and said, “That way you won’t be running away


    anymore”. She tried to put a bit of space between them but he didn’t want to have any of that.


    “S-te, y-you know it’s not appropriate for us t-to b-be in the s-same room”, she said, stammering


    “And why is that, Gisele?”, te asked, walking towards her.


    Gisele took a deep breath and said, “Because of your fiancée that’s why”.


    te’s brow furrowed and he asked’ perplexed, “My fiancée… what fiancée?”


    It was Gisele’s own turn to be confused.


    “E Hepburn? The model with blonde hair and a lot of cleavage?”


    te’s confused look disappeared to be reced with an amused one and heughed.


    Gisele pouted and turned away from him. “Don’t worry, shortcake, I’m notughing at you but to think of


    E and I living together makesugh and disgusts me at the same time”, te a**ured her.


    “But… wait what? Shortcake?! I’m a respectable height for a woman, but I’m not short.”


    te looked down at her in amus****t. To his six foot three inch frame, she was incredibly short.


    “Really?”, he asked while raising one eyebrow.

    “Yes, I a**ure you”, she said primly, like a proper little madam.


    * * *


    s***, te thought as he felt himself hardening. She looked at him pointedly and said, “It’s alreadyte,


    I need sleep, te and I guess you do too, so kindly open my door, go out and let me sleep”


    “No goodnight kiss?”


    “Nope”, Gisele said.


    “Come on, have mercy, Shortcake”


    She pursed her lips and said, “On one condition, you stop calling me ‘shortcake’. Deal?”


    “Yeah, I promise”.


    “Okay”, she said then stood on tiptoe and pecked his lips. “Done, now open the door”


    “That was not a kiss, Gisele”, teined. “This is a kiss”, he added then swooped down and


    kissed her lips.


    It took Giselepletely by surprise and parted her lips in a gasp. te took the opportunity and


    invaded her lips.


    He s***ed on her tongue, making her feel things she had never felt before.


    After sometime, he lifted his head and said, “Now that was a kiss. Good night… Shorty. Dream about


    me.”


    Gisele gasped and realized that she had just been yed.

    te went out leaving Gisele alone with her thoughts and her iPhone 5s, it was a birthday gift from


    Lizzie’s parents.


    She copsed on her bed and texted Lizzie


    Gisele: U won’t guess what happened.

    Lizzie: What? U killed someone and shipped their body to Antarctica?


    G: Wtf Liz? Of course not.


    L: What then?

    G: Lol. Good night


    L: ‘Night. Dream about him.


    Giseleughed because that was the same thing te had told her. She changed into her pajamas and


    braided her thick red hair. She said her prayer and off she went into sleep filled with wonderful


    dreams…
