Chapter 129 - I should be the one who is sorry
By the time Scott finished cooking all the favorite dishes of Jean his mother also made various fruit dishes and salads to make Jean more nurture.
He didn’t even see Jean after returning back from work because his mother didn’t allow him to even step into the room. She had also given him big lecture for acting out of impulse and tiring out Jean like that. How can Jean say everything to his mother like that....
Scott slowly tiptoed to the room when his mother became engrossed in talking to their family doctor. She got to know that her daughter in law is easily attacked by fatigue and migraine. So she is worried about her....
Jean is sleeping deeply curled up like a ball. Her eyebrows are creased as if she is having bad dream and her eyes part is little moist indicating that she had cried not long back. She is also clutching blanket tightly that wrinkles can be clearly seen on the fabric.
Scott could easily tell she is having a nightmare related to her past. But she didn’t experience anything bad this day nor she encountered some incidents that triggered her past. Except facing his extreme jealous mood and getting tired. She didn’t face anything bad today. May be the reason for her nightmare is him....
This made him very gloomy and sad. He gently lifted her up freeing her from the sheets of blankets that are making her sweaty and suffocated. He made her sit on his lap before placing her in comfortable position and wrapped his big arms around her.
Feeling the soothing familiarity Jean snuggled like a little kitten making him chuckle. He sat there calmly observing her adorable face when she squirmed aggressively making him wince with pain.
She is having nightmare again as she grabbed his shirt and curled her toes and started crying and screaming. This made Scott’s mother run to the room totally scared.
Scott signaled her to leave the room. Seeing his agonized face she sighed and left the room. She thought Jean screamed because of Scott....
Scott gently woke his woman up from the nightmare coaxing her like a little baby. As soon as she saw Scott she hugged him tight and shoved her face into his chest while tears slowly made its way to soak his shirt.
"Baby...its fine. I am here" he patted her head rhythmically as he comforted her.
"I am extremely sorry for behaving like that. Is this nightmare because of me" his tears mixed with her tears on her face. The sensitive and vulnerable possesion in his life is only Jean and even the single drop from her eye is enough for him to become crybaby like her.
"I should be the one who should say sorry" Jean sobbed in her cracked voice.
"No..I over reacted. I don’t know what has gotten into me then that I acted so Jealous. Forgive me" his pained expression is not any lesser than the agony Jean is facing now.
" It is okay to be Jealous honey. I would have reacted in same way if I was in your place then."
"But you are so tired and angry on me. You would have probably murdered me by now if glares could kill a man. I felt so guilty that you suffered all this drama because of me" he shoved his head suddenly into crook of her neck making her gasp by his sudden attack.
She smiled simply at him while he left wet kisses all over her neck and shoulders. "I just pretended that I am angry on you. I do deserve that punishment because it is really unfair to you that I allowed rumors to spread across the whole team about him and me." She said guiltily.
Scott smiled sensually at her confession. "Good that you understood. You actually made me jealous that I couldn’t hold it back. Sorry" he still feels guilty because this is still the reason she suffered today at meeting.
If she is not that exhausted she would have probably checked her files again before entering the meeting. She exposed one of her technique that is closely connected to way INA handles the situation. If there is someone who knew the procedures of INA they would have probably labeled Jean as spy of the rival company.
"Don’t worry. I already figured their plan even before the meeting started. But I am not left with other option but to use my techniques."
"What if few of them already know that this is way nearer to INA" he continued his kissing relieved after knowing that it is Jean’s plan.
"This way is only used by higher ups in my company so it would be tough for them to find out" Jean started playing with his hair, swirling and twirling it with her fingers. She snuggled closer to him and closed her eyes.
"We can’t yet conclude about it now. By the way why are you having nightmare now. Did something trigger your painful past" he slightly moved so that he could see right into her eyes. He pecked her eyes assuring her that he wil always protect her.
"Hmm...nothing. It is just random nightmare baby. Don’t worry" She closed her eyes not daring to see him in his eyes while she lied to him.
’One day I will tell about it. But not now Scott because it is another painful part of my depressing past that I cant open up’ Jean thought sadly about it.
She can’t say talking to Raymond triggered her nightmares again.
"Hmmm..let us sit here for few minutes like this. I missed this warmth and comfort. I love you Scott. Only you" Jean whispered in his ears as they lied back in comfortable position.
" I am yours just like you are mine. Loves you so much Jean. my baby" he kissed her adoringly as they drifted into their sleep.
