Always Been Yours (Tessa and Nicholas)

Tessa had already lost one child, so it felt like she had two children’s worth of love to place on this baby. She knew that she wouldn’t have been able to handle the situation if she had lost this baby as well. She would surely have gone crazy. Her tears rolled down her cheeks before landing on the back of Nicholas’ hand.

Her tears left a burning sensation on Nicholas’ skin and he felt a tight feeling in his chest. “All right. It’s all over now. Fortunately, both you and the baby are safe now.” He lifted his hand and gently wiped the tears off Tessa’s face while speaking to her softly. Despite his tenderness, Tessa couldn’t seem to stop crying. She continued to sob to herself.

Nicholas had no choice but to get Tessa to look him directly in the face. “No more crying!” he uttered in a firm and stern voice. “But I can’t stop myself…” Tessa blinked a few times as more tears rolled down her cheeks. Nicholas felt sorry for her when he saw the look on her face. “Stop crying. It hurts me to see you like this,” he muttered after planting kisses on Tessa’s eyelids.

She froze for a moment before she nodded and tried her best to contain her emotions. After a while, her tears finally came to a halt. Nicholas was relieved to see this, and he bent down to give her another kiss on her forehead. “That’s right. No more crying from now on,” he ordered.
