Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 206 As Josiah spoke , he buried his face directly into the crook of Siennas neck , too shy to lift his head .

He was incredibly nervous .

He had never said anything so embarrassing before .

His heart was pounding so fast it felt like it might leap out of his throat .

Meanwhile , Sienna froze in place , staring blankly at the mirror in front of her .

All she could see was Josiahs tall frame and her own stunned expression .

What did he just say ? Like me ? This has got to be the biggest joke of the century .

Whod believe that ? Only an idiot , she thought .

After leaving FOUR HOURS , Sienna announced she was heading back to Sunshine Neighborhood .

They had only just made up , so Josiah wasnt eager to part ways so soon.

Why are you going back ? Tonight , we could … I want to rest, to sleep , Sienna interrupted before he could finish , leaning back in her seat with little energy .

Josiah glanced at the faint dark circles under her eyes .

Youre tired ! Yes , Sienna said , turning to look at him .

And the reason Im this exhausted ? Youve had quite the role in that .

So , please , just let me go back and get some sleep .

I havent had a good nights rest in two days .

Then , as if to prove her point , she yawned .

Im really tired .

Josiah still wasnt satisfied , but he tried to be considerate .

How about you sleeping at Silver Beach ? The environment there is better .

Your place is so Josiah Sienna said , rolling her eyes .

Do you think that just because I agreed to reconcile , Im supposed to treat you with smiles and sweetness immediately After spending more time with him lately , Sienna had figured out that as long as she didnt mention breaking up or bringing up his first crush , he was actually pretty easy to deal with .

If thats what you think , drop the idea .

The day you insulted me ? Im still not over it , she stated .

The day I i insulted you … Josiah stammered , trying to argue .

Yes ? Sienna raised an eyebrow .

Isnt that right ? Josiah admitted reluctantly .

He had called her arrogant , domineering , and willful .

Hmph Sienna snorted , curling her lips into a smirk .
