Chapter 640 - Start again (2) (1/2)

While Aiden and Sarah kissed, atmosphere got more heated by the second.

Sarah's hands slipped under his top and ran over his back, pulling him closer. Oh, how she loves to feel those muscles under her palms. She pressed her body on his and the only thing on her mind was that they should remove clothes and feel each other.

She was dissapointed when Aiden broke the kiss and held her hands in his.

He kissed back of her each palm and took few deep breaths to compose himself before speaking: ”Let me help you shower.”

Sarah was surprised that ' help with shower ' only meant that he will give her a fresh set of clothes and a clean towel, before leaving the bathroom. Usually it meant a much more… thorough service.

She assumed that he might be hungry. Why else would he avoid the chance for two of them to make love? With that thought, Sarah showered quickly and was ready for food.

They ate in a pleasant silence while exchanging loving gazes. She likes that they don't need to talk. It was always like that.

Silence was pleasant for her, but Aiden was doing his best to hide his uneasiness. He wondered how much Sarah remembers. Did she really forget the photos and her nightmare which lead to her locking herself in the bathroom? But he does not want to mention it. If she does not remember and he brings it up, it will jog her memory, and if she remembers it then him talking about it will resurface the unpleasant topic.

Aiden decided: he will not talk about it unless she brings it up. And he will do his best to show his sincerity. He will remind her how much he loves her and how much she means to him, even if he needs to start from the beginning.

Sarah watched Aiden as he cleaned up the table. He insisted that she rests and lets him do it.

”What do you want to do now?”, he asked with a smile while sitting next to her on the sofa.

”I don't know… how about we work? We have few things to work on, you pick which one first.” Sarah always liked working with him, and since he mentioned that he wants them to start over… this is what they did at the beginning of their relationship.

He cringed at the thought that one of the pending works is looking into his past. But he did his best to conceal it behind a nervous smile.

They spent the day looking into Regina's family business, with the focus on their illegal diamond trading.

Aiden diligently prepared dinner, rejecting Sarah's offer to help out.

”You are pampering me too much. I'm starting to believe you are guilty of something.”, Sarah joked. She missed that his body jerked at her comment.

Dinner was lively. Sarah was excited about what they found.

”With all this information, we can take over their diamond business and none of those people will know that their Boss changed!”

”You want to go into diamond business?”, Aiden raised his eyebrows, entertained by Sarah's enthusiasm.

”I'm a girl! And diamonds are girl's best friends!” Sarah laughed. ”We like sparkly things!”

He loves to hear her laugh, and he will do anything to keep that smile on. ”OK. Let's take it over… But it's illegal. Are you OK with that?”
