Hellbound With You (WN)

Tears began to flow from Abi ’s eyes. She was in a trance, utterly surprised.

Seeing that tears were already flowing down Abigail ’s face, Alex ’s gaze softened and he slowly cupped her face and wiped the tears from her eyes with his thumbs.

”Shh… don ’t cry anymore, Abigail. Please, ” he begged. He pulled her into his embrace and kissed her forehead, as Abi sobbed in his chest.

”T-this means you ’re finally alright, right? Alex? ” she asked him, looking up.

Alex nodded, flashing a gentle smile at her. ”Yes, ” he answered, kissing her eyes this time. ”You did well, wife. ”

His words were like soothing music. This single piece of amazing news was more than enough to erase all the confusion and fear she had felt last night. She couldn ’t believe it. She couldn ’t describe how happy and relieved she felt.

”Oh god, Alex… I ’m so happy… I ’m so glad… ” she cried, hugging him tightly.

”So you shouldn ’t be crying now, Abigail. ”

”These are tears of joy, Alex. ”

With that, Alex could only let her cry in his arms, rubbing her head and back. When she finally calmed down, Alex made her sit on the chair again. ”You have to eat breakfast now. Let me finish this so that you can eat, okay? ” he said and Abi obediently let go. Her smile was wide and her face was bright and filled with joy which belied the tears that were falling down her face..

Seeing that expression made Alex ’s heavy heart lighten up tremendously. This was all he needed, to see his wife smile like this. He would do anything and everything just to make her smile like this.
