Chapter 32

It had been a week, and Fiona was still lying on the bed, all thanks to her dear husband, Justin. Note her sarcasm. She was capable of walking on her own, but no Justin wants to follow the doctor's instructions. She was sure that this guy has broken all the rules in his life and now he wants to follow it. She knows that he is looking out for her, but if you had to sit full day on the bed doing nothing, then you will understand why she was so damn frustrated and agitated.

"I am not coming," Justin growled. "I don't care...Cancel it, postponed it, but I am not coming." he banged the phone on the nearest table.

"What's wrong?" Fiona asked him curiously.

"Nothing major. There is a meeting which was to be held today, but I am not going. "

"You should go and attend it," she told him immediately. Not that she wanted him to leave the place but she needed her space and walk around a bit.

"Don't worry Fi, it is taken care of. It's just a two-hour meeting. You are my main concern at the moment."

"Justin...Wait, listen to me first. You should attend this meeting. From the past week, you have not been in office and I am perfectly fine. It's just a two-hour meeting, so I will be good there. And as it is, its afternoon and I am planning to take a nap." she told him sincerely trying to look innocent. This was her only opportunity to get Justin out of the home and finally, she will be able to walk around her home for a bit.

"But..."

"Come on Justin." She insisted.

"Are you sure"

"Yes 100 percent. If it makes you feel better I will call you if there is any problem. "

"Ok, fine. It will make me feel better if you call me every 15 minutes. Why do you have to look so innocent?"

Ha-ha. Full week He has pampered her. He has been saying no one can resist her innocent look. She doesn't why he thinks that. But why not to use it as an advantage.

*After few minutes*

"Ok! I am going I will be back in four hrs. Any problem calls me; I don't care if I am in a meeting. Take a nap. I have given you your medicines and Stay in bed."

Fiona was rolling her eyes.

"Fiona I am serious, you better stay in bed. You need to take complete rest." 

"Gosh! You are just going for a few hours, not days. And I am not going anywhere, it's not like I am going to be dead while you are away for a few hours."

"If you said the dead word again, I am not going." he was glaring now. Great! Though it was cute but still.

"Ok, ok! Now go. I will be a good girl and stay in bed just like you asked me to."

"good and Bye takes care and calls me in every few minutes." he pecked her lips and rushed.

Ha! Like she was actually going to do that. She wasn't one to rebel, but once in time, it's not bad. and it is not exactly rebelling. She is not breaking a law just walking around a bit.

Ok! Now, what should she do? Before now Justin was there with her when she was stuck in this bed, but now she is completely alone. They played so many board and card games to keep themselves entertained and it was so much fun.

She knew for sure that sleep wasn't going to come soon so she did one thing which she never thought she would ever do. Cooking. Fiona was bored out of her mind. It's been an hour already since Justin left and she did nothing but went Into her dreamland, in between of which he called her like 7 times to check if she was okay which started to annoy her a bit. it was sweet but Justin was going overboard with this. but its Justin so she could not expect anything less from but at the same time she did not think he was serious when he told her that he would check on her every few minutes.

So to kill time she thought about baking cakes. Grace was on holiday as per Justin's orders. He wants to take full advantage of this opportunity. In short, he wanted to cook and hey! She was not complaining.

So Fiona went into the kitchen and attached her phone to speakers, but not before keeping it in silent mode as she didn't want to be disturbed by Justin and after a call or two he would think she is sleeping. She took her apron and wore it and started baking.

It's been almost 4 hours and Fiona was not picking up her cell. At first, Justin thought she was taking a nap, but that girl picks up her phone during her sleep. That's a different story if she doesn't remember later on about the conversion she had.

His meeting got extended for an hour and she was not picking up her phone. Justin immediately left the office and went home. He opened the door and rushed to their room. Great!! She is not here. Then he notices the loud music blasting from the kitchen.

Guess what he found there. Yes! Fiona in all her glory with a spatula singing and dancing. She was singing on top of her lungs and dancing as if her life depends on it. Now she took the stool and climbed on it to take the sugar from the loft. Due to her petite height, she was not able to reach, but still, she was trying hard to get. You know what the funny thing here is, the time, you'll be dancing on the stool and her balanced loosed and she fell.

But before she could fall flat in the face, he caught her in bridal style.

"Nice dance," he commented.

"Oops," she said with a faint smile on her face.

Justin carried her to the bedroom and made her sit down on the bed.

"Unbelievable Fi, I was out for a few hours. Each and every second I was worried about you and when I come home I find you in all your glory dancing and singing in the kitchen. Fine, I excused you for that for a few minutes, but who the hell dances on the stool. What if I was not here? You could have fallen flat on the face and would have injured yourself."

"But you came and saved me, like a knight in shining armor," she said sweetly...

"Stop sugar coating me, yes, I did, but what if."

"There are so many what-ifs in our life Justin. What if I didn't go to meet Anna? Then this incident, fiasco wouldn't have happened. What if I hadn't gotten into an accident, then James and Em wouldn't have realized there feeling soon."

"What if I had lost you in the accident?" he asked her seriously She stood up, walked towards me. "Then you would have given me a bang on farewell and partied all night."

She was smiling, but stopped once she realized her husband was in no mood of a joke.

"If you had lost me then you would move on and find an amazing girl and lived your life happily with her along with our best friends."

He engulfed her in his arms.

"Please don't ever say that. I won't be able to handle the pain if I lost you."

"You won't unless God has some other plans"

"I don't care about his plans." To which she smiled.

"Come on, let's get you clean. You have cocoa powder on your face"

"I can clean myself up. Shit! Cake in the oven". She rushed to the kitchen and dragged him with her.

"Oh no no no! My cake in the garbage, no!" she was dramatically winning when Justin threw the sponge cake in the bin.

"Let's get you clean."

"It's because of you. If you didn't come then we would have been eating my cake." Fiona was throwing an accusing look at him.

"If I didn't come on time you would have broken your leg by now," he told her with a glare.

after a few seconds, he sighed. "If it makes you feel better we both will bake it together this time."

"Ok," she exclaims happily.

Then Justin cleaned her face with a wet cloth.

After that, they both were baking a cake together. And it was great fun. At the end of the day while watching TV, then she slept in his arms. She was tired and baking can make you fatigue. Fiona was healing now and she shouldn't be taking pressure, physically and mentally both.

Fiona is really special to him. He soon has to confess his feelings to her. He wants to claim her. Yes, she is already his but you know their deal. And he wants to remove that deal. But his feelings have to wait until she has recovered 100 percent.
