Swayam left the following morning a little bit earlier than Sharon because he had some business to take care of. Sharon wanted to share breakfast with him, so she made a couple of sandwiches with cheese and ham and then stopped by Glenda's cafe and took some muffins. She took one of her big purses with her and placed them inside so that no one would see her carrying the food to his office. When she reached the office she formally went to Kria and asked her if Swayam had already come to the office and if he was available for her to see him. Kria checked with him and a few minutes later she was closing the door of his office behind her.
Hello. Did everything go well in your meeting this morning?
Yes although I missed having breakfast with you.
I thought you would that is why I brought it with me to share she smiled and got off her bag the sandwiches and the muffins.
You are a treasure little fairy. He went around his desk took her in his arms and kissed her.
They sat together on his desk chair, she on his lap and ate quickly so that Kria would not barge in and find them in such a compromising position.
The rest of the day past without any mentionable incidents, as did the rest of the week. They developed a comfortable routine. They went separately to work and they did what they had to do. They ate lunch together only once that week since they did not want Swayam's title as the tyrant to stick. Sharon kept giggling at that and Swayam kept scowling. After work they went together home. Which home did not matter. Sometimes it was his place and sometimes hers. They both constantly had an overnight bag in their trunks, because they always decided the last minute were to go. Most of the times the choice of apartment was defined by how much they could hold themselves without attacking each other. Because as soon as they left their offices they became a beautiful couple crazy for one another. They dinned together in cozy restaurants or at home and spent the night making love again and again.
Sharon could not believe she was experiencing such a thing. Every night while she fell asleep she feared that all this was a dream and that she would wake up the next morning alone and miserable as usual. But each morning she woke up all worm in Swayam's embrace. She loved how he never let her go during their sleep. He snuggled up with her and whenever he wanted to change position he just took her with him. And all that never waking up. As if his body recognized hers as a part of him. It was like a dream come true for her and she hoped it would last for ever.
When Friday came, Swayam proposed that they left town for the weekend. Sharon just wanted to be with him. The where and whens did not matter to her and so she gladly agreed with him. They left after work went to pack some things for the weekend and left right away. She had no idea where he was taking her. That was not very easy for her while packing her suitcase but he wanted to be a surprise and she did not want to spoil it. He was obviously very excited about it. They drove for a long time heading outside of time through the countryside. Finally they reached a castle that apparently was renovated and worked as a hotel. A very special hotel. It was breathtaking. It had something medieval on the outside and that theme was kept on the inside also. In the rooms there were only hidden lights for emergencies and the guests used candles. The bed was huge with drapes on each side. The wardrobe was wooden and beautifully carved. And in the bathroom even the bathtub had a medieval style. In a few words it was beautiful fantastic and Just perfect. Sharon felt enchanted. She kept looking everywhere with a dreamy look. Swayam closed their room door as soon as they brought their bags inside and went towards her. He hugged her from behind and kissed her on her neck.
"Do you know why I chose this place?" he whispered in her ear and she shivered all over.
"Because it is the most beautiful place I have ever been to?"
"Well it only seemed appropriate. The theme of this hotel is the medieval times. And you know what happened then?"
"What?" she said huskily obviously affected by his closeness.
"They believed in fairies. So I thought it was appropriate of me to bring you in a place you could be appropriately worshiped."
"Mmm and I though I was being appropriately worshiped each night this week" she said with a very sexy tone.
"Oh god you are driving me crazy" Swayam said while scooping her up in his hands and taking her to their bed. He took off her clothes and his as quickly as he could and he proceeded to make frantic love to her. When they both were laying together he held her tight to his chest, still inside of her and whispered to her ear.
"This is true happiness"
Like that they fell asleep together and did not wake up until the next morning. Sharon woke up with her stomach growling. They had skipped dinner the previous night, too busy making love. She was not regretting it but her empty stomach made her feel a little bit queasy. She felt Swayam nuzzling her neck and immediately knew that he was also awake.
"How is my little fairy feeling today?" her stomach growled again giving an answer for her. Sharon laughed even though she was embarrassed.
"She is very happy to be with you, but you neglected to feed her last night and her stomach is on a riot, embarrassing her. Pretty romantic right?"
"I should be punished for neglecting such a sweet thing. It is not my fault though you are too delicious for your own good."
"You are right!" she turned in his embrace facing him, licked him behind his ear and squeezed his tigh hard.
"You are getting yourself in a whole lot of trouble there sweet fairy. Leave the gun you are holding alone if you wish to eat breakfast" she giggled playfully and kissed him on the lips.
"Feed me oh mighty knight!"
He groaned and stood from the bed. There was a hidden telephone on the side of the bathroom door and he picked it up and ordered a breakfast fit for royalty. They fed each other in bed and although everything was wonderful the queasiness in Sharon's stomach would not dissipate. Swayam sensed something was wrong and asked her about it.
"What is wrong baby? Don't you like this? You want me to order something different for you?"
"No everything is perfect. My stomach feels a little bit weird but that is probably because I did not eat anything last night. I am sure that I will be fine. I don't want anything to ruin our weekend."
"Hey you being healthy is what matters me the most. I love you little fairy! I know it is too soon, but I really irrevocably love you!" Sharon looked at him with tears in her eyes.
"I love you too Swayam! I mean I tried not to fall for you that fast, but it quickly became obvious to me that all my attempts were a lost cause."
He hugged her furiously and kissed her sweetly. He kept on kissing her expecting her to stop him, since she did not feel too good. She did not stop him. Soon they were making love again. By noon Sharon felt pretty good and they went for a walk together. The hotel had formed the whole area with the medieval theme and they had a lot of fun running around like a lovesick couple. The manager of the hotel even send them some champaign compliments of the hotel, because after observing them, he thought they were newlyweds. When they cleared that out he insisted that they keep it for their real honeymoon. He even bet Swayam money on how soon the wedding would be. The possibility of them not getting married was non negotiable for either of them, and Sharon could not do anything but laugh at them and their stubbornness.
The weekend passed on a blur. Like all good things it ended too soon and by Sunday afternoon they started heading back to town. Swayam took them to his apartment just for a few moments, so that he could take some clothes for the next day and they headed to her home. He had no intention to sleep without her unless it was absolutely necessary. EVER. He neglected to mention that to Sharon because he did not want to freak her out. They were already moving too fast for her standards. She had jocked about the bet he had made with the owner of the hotel but he was serious as a heart attack. He would just give her a little more time to get used to the idea.
The next morning both of them woke up and got ready for work. Although they were practically living together now only for a week they had developed a comfortable routine among them and they got ready quickly and efficiently. They both hated early morning wake ups, but being in each other's arms, made the whole thing just a little better. So when they were reaching their offices, they both had big smiles on their faces. Kria realized that and mentioned it to Sharon that Monday morning.
"Well hello hello. You must have had a great weekend if you are still smiling like that. The mystery man who sends you everyday flowers is definitely doing something right." Kria told her while they were both purring coffee in their mugs smirking. "Now that I think about it, you have had that smile plastered to your face every morning the past week. Well girlfriend, why don't you share some details and even better why don't you give me his phone to pass it to my boyfriend. Not that I have something to complain about but I would like to have such a smile each morning. Maybe your guy can give some tips to mine." She winked at Sharon again and she became once again as red as a ripe tomato.
"Hey let's not exaggerate. It is just that the previous months were pretty miserable for me and now the change makes the whole situation a lot better."
"Well still you have not given me any details about him yet. Please share."
"I will I promise. Just give me some time to feel more sure about this thing. It is too soon yet and I am afraid to jinx it. I know you mean well and I appreciate it." Sharon said honestly and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"All right I will let you get away with it just this once but you will have to make good on your promise and tell me all about him soon." She said half pouting. "I have to leave now and take Swayam his coffee. You know I think he has a girlfriend too because he has the same goofy smile you do every morning" Kria said ant left right away. Sharon was thankful for that because a guilty blush covered once again her face, plus she had feared that Kria might make the connection between her happiness and Swayam's. From Kria's careless retreat she gathered her secret was safe for a while more. She went back to her own office smiling even more knowing that she was the one that was making Swayam happy.
Everything seemed right in the world, except from her stomach that was quite unsettled this morning too. She thought that maybe something that she ate on the trip had not settled well with her. So she took some antiacid and went back to work like usual trying to ignore it. It was a busy day but she made it through without complaining. After observing her through their meetings Swayam sensed that something was a little bit off and asked her while they were eating lunch at his office. This time they really had work to do.
"Honey, is everything OK? I am getting some strange vibes from you" he asked her. She laughed humourlessly but answered to him.
"You don't miss anything, do you? My stomach was not very well this morning, I think it must be something I ate at the hotel. Not that it was spoiled because you are obviously fine. My stomach is probably more sensitive and all that spice in the food affected me. I am sure that I will be fine by tomorrow. As a matter of fact, I am already feeling better and I am quiet hungry. So I suggest we both eat our food, or I am going to eat yours too." She tried to make fun of the situation.
"OK. But if this keeps up by tomorrow I am taking you to a doctor. And I am killing the hotel manager." He said seriously
"Hey baby let's not make a big deal of this. I am sure I will be fine by tomorrow." She said and kissed him on the lips, moved by his concern.
"Nobody dares to hurt my fairy and gets away with it" he declared and kissed her passionately. She stopped him mostly out of fear that someone might walk in to them.
"Eat your food, we have work to do"
They ate and they kept on working and by the time they went by his place, Sharon was feeling fine and famished. She cooked him spaghetti a la crme and ended up eating most of it. Swayam watched her amused devour all that food, and was glad her stomach was settled once more. When they were done he washed the dishes with her and afterwards they sat on the love seat to watch breakfast at Tiffany's. One of her favourites. He had never seen it before and she promised him that it was one of the movies that you just have to see at least once in a lifetime. He did not mind. As long as she was seated on his lap, he was willing to see anything.
After the end of the movie he took her to his arms and to their bed. There he cuddled with her and they fell asleep. He wanted to make love to her, but he was worried that it might not be good for her unsettled stomach to get overly excited, even if she was feeling fine during dinner.
The alarm clock woke both of them in the morning. Swayam hugged her more closely and kissed her sweetly as he did every morning. He was ready to get up and visit the bathroom first, giving her a few more minutes of sleep, as he did everyday, when Sharon shot out of the bed and run to the bathroom. A few seconds later he heard her throwing up. He run to the bathroom and found her on the bathroom floor throwing up in the toilet. He sat down beside her and held her hair. When she seemed to have stopped, he took a towel put some cold water on it and rinsed her face with it.
"So no more of my kisses in the morning? Bad reaction to them?" He tried to make light of the situation although he was sick with worry for her health. She laughed weakly and placed her head to the crook of his neck for support.
"I would not take it personally my love. I should not have eaten like a pig last night. Now I am paying for it."
He was sad to see her like this but he could not dismiss that she had called him her love. If the situation was any different, he would be on his feet jumping up and down.
"Fairy I am going to call the office and tell them we are going to be late. I am taking you to the doctor."
"No, don't do that. I am fine now. I don't need any doctor. We have a lot of work to do and both of us can't say we will be late this morning. People are going to suspect something about our relationship."
"I don't care what they think. I want to know that my fairy is healthy."
"I am fine. If this keeps up I will go to the doctor in the afternoon."
He did not like it but did not want to upset her more than she already was. He made her some herbal tea and drove her to the office. She wanted to take her car but when he would not back down, she relented and just hoped nobody saw them driving together. Lucky for her no one was in the garage when they reached work. They went up to their offices and proceeded to do their work as usual. By noon she was already feeling much better and when they got to his place again, she was good as knew. She was famished but she ate lightly to avoid vomiting like that morning.
Swayam was treating her as if she was made of porcelain and even though up to a point she thought it was cute, by the time they went to bed she was starting to get pissed. He had cooked her dinner and did not leave her help him do the dishes. She talked to Simmi while he cooked for her and she got more irritated when she insisted that Swayam was right and that she should go see a doctor. But what really made her reach her limits, was when they got to bed and he refused to make love to her. That was it. She was going to show him what she was really made of.
She claimed that she felt hot and bothered and striped off her pyjamas. She started humming in his embrace and moving her body up and down to Swayam's. In two minutes tops she had him hot and ready to burst. He tore his boxers and entered her in one swift move cursing himself for being so weak. She laughed devilishly, but soon her laugh was turned to moans of passion. She had won that round.
The next morning when they woke up, Sharon's stomach was unsettled again but at least she did not throw up. They went to work and went through their appointments as usual. Around eleven o clock, during a mutual appointment of hers and Swayam's, Sharon was feeling very hot although the air condition was working perfectly. She stood and went to take a glass of water. But only two steps later she collapsed on the floor.
Swayam ran to her side as soon as he saw her waver on her way to the bar where he kept the water jug. But he was not fast enough. That damn desk of his, got in his way and he was too late to catch her. She hit the floor roughly and the awful sound he heard was from her head. He got pale when he heard it and instantly prayed to god that the hot was not fatal. He dropped right next to her and tried to reach her pulse.
