The Reunion After Seven Years
Chapter 122 Just Want A Little Sister
The night grew deeper. Lying in Kerr's arms, Nicole watched the beautiful, calm, moonlit night outside her window. It was as if a violent storm had not come to disturb the world last night.
It was late, but Nicole was still wide awake, listening to Kerr's steady breathing.
"Why are you still up?"
Kerr gently stirred and kissed the top of Nicole's head.
"Have you been up? How did you know I wasn't asleep?"
Nicole tilted her head to look at Kerr whose eyes were halfway closed.
Kerr was half-awake at best. She had tried not to wake him up.
"I can't sleep with you still up. I can tell you're awake from your breathing."
The woman Kerr loved was by his side. Of course he could feel her breathing. People said that when you were in love with someone, you would be able to memorize everything about them including the way they breathed. Kerr knew that now to be true.
"Can you really or you're just sweet talking me?"
Nicole started fiddling with Kerr's hair.
"I've never sweet talked anyone but you."
Kerr looked at Nicole seriously.
He had never sweet talked anyone because he did not have to. Women were constantly throwing themselves at him, but he had never been especially interested in any of them. Nicole was different. She held his heart in her hand.
"Then I will expect your sweet words from now on."
Nicole had never asked Kerr about his past, but she knew about the constant parade of women that circled him. She could not change the past, but she could make the present and the future wonderful for both herself and Kerr.
She only needed to be in Kerr's present and future.
