Chapter 47
I knew arguing with him was just going to make things worse , so I walked out of the room and down the stairs . Blake was right behind me with his tray . I got to the counter and plated myself some food and sat on the bar stool . Blake sat next to me and started eating .
He coughed and sneezed the entire time . I grabbed him some water after he was done and he took his pills .
“ You need rest . No work ! Straight to bed and stay there . I don’t wanna hear about work until your feeling better . ” I scolded and put the dishes into the dishwasher .
He just stared at me and smiled .
“ What ? ” I asked confused by his look .
“ You might as well be my wife . ” He chuckled .
He wasn’t wrong , the way we were , it did feel like a relationship . I knew there would be consequence if I did go ahead with this . I had just been kicked out of my best friends life , could I afford to have something like that happen again ? I had just started to get comfortable with Blake .
“ Can I meet your family ? ” I blurted out .
Blake’s eyes widened . Why was he so shocked ? Did he not want his family knowing ?
“ Yes of course you can . What’s brought this on ? You changing your mind ? ” He sounded happy .
“ Not changing my mind , I would rather get this rejection thing over with before I get to comfortable with you . I mean living here with you is great and honestly I want this to work out but I know that just like Taylor’s family , any good reputable family would be against their son being with someone with a past like mine . I would rather just tell them and get it over with so you can get it through your head that this isn’t going to work . If you still what me staying with you after that is your choice but I want you to see this marriage thing isn’t going to work ”
Blake started laughing “ oh babe . You have no idea what your doing . ” He had recently started calling me babe a lot . He got up and walked over to me until I was standing between him and the counter . He put his hands on either side of me and held on to the counter . “ I’m telling you , no one is going to have a problem with this . You are gonna go there to meet my family and going to end up getting engaged to me before you come back . So really think this through . I know you’ve got this master plan but I’m not joking when I say my parents will go watch your mothers show with you . ”
Was he serious ? The Coopers were very very rich and popular . Society would eat them alive if they find out their daughter in laws mother was a prostitute .
Blake started to cough so he turned his head and put his forehead on my shoulder . Anxiety started to raise in me . Images of that night with Vince flashed and I quickly pushed them away . Since that night I had anxiety about any guy touching me , even the slightest bit . I was okay around Rocky and now I was getting use to Blake but I still got clammy and anxious every time something happened . Blake wouldn’t do anything like that . I may not have known him long but I could trust him .
“ First you get better . Then we can talk about this more . For now go to bed ” I ordered and he chuckled . He leaned forward and pressed a kiss on my forehead .
“ Goodnight Rosy . Please really think about this . I’m being serious . I won’t keep annoying you but I do hope you change your mind ” he said and walked back to the stairs . He stopped at the bottom and turned back “ you are not a gold digger and rest assured that I will break the face of anyone that says that ” he smiled and walked up the stairs .
What is wrong with this boy !? Whatever it was , he was growing on me . I was starting to like his behaviour . Was this going to bite me in the ass like
Vince ? ….
