THEO
I watched Bella sleep for exactly five minutes more, before I was rolling out of the bed in a haste, to put a distance between the two of us.
I had prepared her hot bath, and had made a point of picking her up, bridal style, and helping her into the tub. And after long treacherous moments of battling with my self control, I had left her alone to finish her bath.Then I had gone to the room opposite mine, to take a cold shower. Thankfully, whether a room was in use or not, Maddie had always insisted on cleaning them.
Then I had gone back to meet Bella, freshly cleaned, and curled up in my bed, wearing one of my tees.i hadn't even had the will to object when she had shot up a hand, beckoning me over to join her in the bed. And I had definitely not had the will to put a distance bet
