Mistaken Identity novel Chapter 73

Kalliyah POV

I yawned and stretched my hands. I had a great sleep. I dreamt about unicorns and mermaids. Dumb, I know but it was a great dream. I smiled at the memory. I slowly opened eyes but jumped when I saw a figure hovering over me. I held my hands to my chest.

"Oh my god. I'm so sorry sweetheart." Alex mumbled at he reached out to touch me.

"It's okay." I sigh. Why is he in my room? "Why are you here?" I asked trying not to sound so bad.

His face looked hurt but he quickly covers it with his smile. I love his smile.

"I came here to look at you sleeping. Have I ever told you that you're like an angel when you wake?" I smiled he's so sweet. He is probably the best boyfriend ever. He did everything to make me happy. He bought ice-cream for us, he rubbed my foot until I feel asleep last night. What I found weird is that he did not kiss me, not even once. I kissed him on his cheeks but that's the only contact he really made except for holding hands. He was indeed taking things slow after all I still have a memory lost. But I knew I have feelings for him and I did. I'm starting to feel my stomach turn when he smiles at me. When he holds my hand. He was gentle. It felt like I was falling for him again. I know in my heart that I was crazy for him once and I'm starting to fall for him again but I don't mind, not one bit. He's a great.

I reach for his cheeks and caress it. "Thank you. You're so sweet to me."

"Of course, I am. I love you and only you."

"I know, you've only told me a million times." I state between laughs.

"That's because you're my heart and I can't afford to lose my heart again." He looked at me with a sad smile. Again? He lost his heart once before? He lost me.

"Again? What happened?" I query.

I watch as he moved his hands to his neck and rub it. He sigh then answer, "That's a long story, we'll talk about it next time. Come get out of bed and get a shower, long day today." He really knows how to change a topic.

"What will we be doing?"
