By the time it was morning, Sonia had dark circles under her eyes as she hadn't gotten enough sleep the previous time. She had barely slept for forty-five minutes when the first alarm went off, and then after massaging Bryan's ankle for twenty minutes while he slept like a baby, she had run into Matt having a nightcap by the bar when she went to return the ice pack to the freezer.
She had talked with him for a little while, asking if Candace was asleep already and why he was drinking alone. He told her Candace had gone home and asked why Bryan had been calling earlier. After Sonia told him about Bryan's accident, they had both decided to call it a night. After that she had tried to fall asleep to no avail, so she had busied herself by typing down what the next chapter of her story would be like on her phone. Just when she finally managed to fall asleep, the alarm had gone off thirty minutes later, and she had repeated the same process. The fourth time when she decided to ignore the alarm and just sleep, the devil in the form of the man lying beside her had woken her up, pointing to his ankle without saying a word.
Now it was morning, and Sonia was in a foul mood, while Bryan seemed to be in a very pleasant mood, "What's so funny?" Sonia asked with a scowl when she noticed Bryan grinning from ear to ear and humming a happy tune as she massaged his ankle with the ice pack.
He had woken up each time the alarm went off but had pretended to be asleep while watching her under his lashes as she rubbed his ankle with the ice. At some point, he had felt sorry for her when he noticed how she was dozing off while doing it, but he had quickly reminded himself that she was the cause of everything, and as such she deserved it.
"I just realized how beautiful you are. Especially with those dark circles under your eyes. You look like the human version of a Giant Panda," Bryan said with an even wider grin, which only seemed to annoy her the more as she could tell he was enjoying himself.
"Ouch!" Bryan yelped with pain and surprise, drawing back his leg away from Sonia who had angrily pressed his ankle hard.
"What? Does it hurt?" Sonia asked with a smirk as she stood up, ready to leave with the ice pack.
Bryan let out a chuckle before he could stop himself, enjoying her annoyance more than he wanted to, "You are gradually beginning to reveal your true colors," Bryan said as he watched her walk to the door.
"Trust me, you don't want to see how colorful I can be," Sonia warned with a glare before she walked out of the bedroom, while Bryan continued to hum his happy tune.
Even though he was still feeling frustrated by the current situation of things, seeing Sonia in this state made it worth it. If she was already feeling this annoyed in barely twenty-four hours, he was sure she would willingly walk out of his life within the next three days.
"I need to use the bathroom," Bryan said, immediately Sonia returned to the bedroom.
"Go ahead. The bathroom is all yours," Sonia said with a flourish as she walked over to the bed, determined to catch a few hours of sleep now that Bryan was awake.
"I wasn't asking you for permission. I'm asking you to take me to the bathroom," Bryan said pointing to his ankle, reminding her that he couldn't walk.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSonia looked at him incredulously, "I beg your pardon?"
"You don't expect me to walk over to the bathroom on this foot, do you?" Bryan asked, going for the helpless look.
"You only twisted one ankle. Surely you can hop to the bathroom on one foot, can't you?"
Bryan shook his head, "I can't."
Sonia rolled her eyes before letting out a sigh, "I will help you get Matt. He should be able to assist you," Sonia said, getting up from the bed.
"You are my fiancee, not Matt. Can you not take care of me? What if Matt wasn't in the house with us?" Bryan asked, giving her the eyes of an abandoned puppy.
"I can tell you are trying to get on my already frayed nerves," Sonia said through gritted teeth as she stood in the center of the room, contemplating whether to get Matt or take Bryan to the bathroom herself.
After thinking about it only for a moment, she walked over to Bryan's side of the bed and leaned down so he could place his arm around her shoulders and lean on her for support. Bryan held on to her shoulder but tried not to place all his weight on her as she led him to the bathroom, while he hopped on one leg.
Once they walked into the bathroom and stood in front of the toilet, Sonia reached out a hand to the front of his sleeping robe to help him take out his penis, but Bryan quickly slapped her hand away, "What are you trying to do?" he asked in a stern voice.
"Isn't it obvious? I want to help you take out your dick while you take a piss," Sonia said, flashing him an innocent smile while fluttering her lashes at him. If he thought he was the only one who knew how to make fun of an annoying situation, then she was about to show him that she was worse than him.
"Thanks, but no thanks. I can continue from here. So if you don't mind, please excuse me," Bryan said, jerking his head towards the door as he waited for her to leave so that he could ease himself.
"Excuse you? Why? Didn't you just say you needed the help of your fiancee? Well, I'm doing that now as I would for my fiance, so come on, you don't have to be shy," Sonia said with a sweet smile as she reached for his robe once again.
"Sonia!" Bryan growled at her, making her giggle all of a sudden.
"I'm not sure I have ever heard you directly call me by my name before now. It sounds so sexy coming from you," Sonia said in amusement as she looked at him.
"Why are you hiding it anyway? Is it that tiny?" Sonia asked, shifting her gaze from his face to the spot between his legs.
Even though his robe covered him fully, he couldn't help but feel very uncomfortable at the unwanted attention his 'special member' was getting from her. He had meant to tease her, not have her switch on him like this.
"Do you want to have a look?" Bryan asked turning his waist in her direction, hoping she would feel embarrassed and leave.
Do I? Sonia nodded eagerly as she looked at him expectantly like a kid who had just been offered candy, "Yes, please."
Of course, she was a stubborn witch. What had he been expecting? That she would say no? Not this witch.
Bryan drew in a deep breath to calm himself, "Can you please excuse me and let me ease myself in private?" Bryan asked as calmly as he could, but Sonia could see the glare in his eyes as he looked at her.
"Are you sure you can stand on one leg long enough to ease yourself? I don't want you falling and twisting your second ankle," Sonia asked with a pleasant smile and giggled when Bryan shoved her away from him.
"Leave!" He yelled at her impatiently.
Sonia giggled, "Ah-ah! Now you are showing your true colors!" Sonia said as she playfully spanked his ass before heading for the door, "Call me if you need your fiancee to help you clean up," she added with a wink and giggled when he shut his eyes, before walking away and shutting the door behind her.
Once he was sure she had left he quickly locked the door from within, and let out a sigh. What sort of trouble had he gotten himself involved in? One minute he thought he was on top of things, and then next she was pushing him off the edge again. She had even spanked his ass? This mad lady!
He quickly handled his business, and once he was done, he flushed the toilet and put down the toilet seat before sitting on it. He reached for his toothbrush and paste, and quickly brushed his teeth, before managing to drag himself to the shower to bathe. After he was done, he dried his hair before wearing the robe and knocking on the door for Sonia to come in.
"For a moment there I thought you probably slipped again and hit your head this time," Sonia said with a smile when he unlocked the door from inside and she walked in.
Bryan leaned on her shoulder as they both returned inside the bedroom, "Maybe I should go out and get you a crutch so you can move around easily on your own?" Sonia asked once he got on the bed.
"And what would you be doing while I'm using crutches?" Bryan asked with a stiff smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Is this supposed to be some sort of punishment?" Sonia asked in disbelief, "Like are you making me do all this just to punish me?"
Bryan yawned, "I'm hungry. Can you get me breakfast?" He asked, ignoring her question.
"I will after you tell me where you kept my laptop and writing materials. I need to work," Sonia said, and Bryan pursed his lips like he was contemplating what she had just said, before picking up his phone.
He dialed Mia's line, and she picked up almost immediately, "Are you busy?" He asked once the call connected.
Mia who had been doing her yoga exercise sat up, "Just doing my exercises," she said, panting softly.
"Good. I'm hungry. Get me something to eat," Bryan ordered, and hung up immediately before turning to smile at Sonia, "As long as I can't work in this state, neither can you."
Sonia opened her mouth to say something, but before she could Matt knocked on the bedroom door, and they both turned to the door, "Come in," Bryan said, relieved that Matt was here now.
Matt walked in, and looked from Bryan to Sonia before looking back at Bryan, "Is everything okay?"
"Sure. I was just having a pleasant conversation with the love of my life," Bryan said with a grin, and Sonia glared at him before walking out of the room, giving both friends privacy.
"Are you sure? She looks very pissed," Matt said, looking at the door.
"Don't worry about her. She is okay. What's up? Where were you when I was calling last night?" Bryan asked with a scowl when he remembered he had been unable to reach Matt.
"I had a female guest. Where do you think I was?" Matt asked, and Bryan nodded in understanding.
"How is your leg?" Matt asked, looking at Bryan's ankle which was wrapped with an ace bandage and elevated on the bed.
"I'm getting by. Where are you going to?" Bryan asked when he noticed that Matt was dressed like he was heading out.
"I figured since you don't need me around to get rid of her anymore I can leave. And I got a call from my manager, need to meet with a producer this morning," Matt explained.
"Cool," Bryan said with a nod. That would leave him alone with Sonia, and as such, she would have no choice but be absolutely responsible for him.. Not bad at all, Bryan thought with a grin.
