The Arranged Bride

Sophia's POV

Bright sunrays falling on my face caused me to wake up. While I tried to stretch my body , I felt a heavy arm on my waist, Nick. I remembered how we slept last which made me smile.

I was unable to move because of the weight on my waist and my legs being tangled with his. I wiggled and finally was able to turn towards him.

Even in his sleep he managed to look gorgeous. His mouth was a bit parted and his hair messy. He looked cute , unlike his usual intimidating look.

I couldn't control the urge to run my hands through his hair. All of a sudden I was pulled even closer to him by my waist. He was now looking at me and his lips were slightly raised at the corners.

" Good morning , Sophia." , His morning voice was so hot , God!

" Good morning ." I smiled and turned my head to look at the clock. It was already 8 and my eyes widened.

" Nick we are going to be late . Get up ! " He still didn't leave me.

" Oh God,Nick ! I know you don't have to be on time but I do ." Instead of moving he had an amused smile on his face.

" Nick ? Are you even - " He cut me off.

" It's Sunday ." He spoke and then I remembered.

I was too embarassed to speak.

"Yeah .. right." , I said looking down at his chest.

" So , now can I hold you ?" He asked . His words sent such a warm feeling to my heart. I quietly nodded.

Some more minutes were spent in the comfortable silence before someone knocked on the door.

"Come in ." Nick said.

The door opened and Ethan poked his head in searching for something. When his eyes landed on me, he grinned and let himself properly in.

" I was looking for you ." He said to me.
