Most nights are tough, she lays there in the darkness, overwhelmed by the things she wished she would stop thinking about. But now she found herself waking to being held in Deans embrace. She had never felt so safe and secure and oddly she had slept through the night every night he had stayed with her. This must be the security and feeling of safety she never knew she needed.

Since the night Dean had confessed and she had too opened up, she was taken care of by Dean. They both lived together in her condo and he only left her side when he needed to go to his condo for his belongings. It had been three days now.

April was feeling better and her arm had all bu healed, though she still had to take it easy. April had dressed and finished her makeup and looked around her bathroom, Dean had left his cologne sitting out and even their toothbrushes sat side by side. She had to shake her head at how quickly he had completely taken over her home and heart.

April walked out of her bathroom and picked up her heels and put them on. Today she wore a simple black dress and wore her hair high in a ponytail. She walked out and saw Dean he was filling two to-go coffee cups.

Dean looked up and smiled, "Tell me.."

April furrowed her eyebrows and picked up her handbag, getting ready to go to work for the first time in over a week, "Tell you what?"

Dean came closer and kissed her forehead, loving her confused face, "Tell me if the skies the limit then how in the world did I find an angel like you?"

April giggled and pushed Dean away, "Stop being so cheesy... Let's go to work."

Dean nodded, he would never stop being sweet if it meant he could tease her. He replied, "Yes babe, but my goal to make you smile every day still exists. So my mission has only started."

April rolled her eyes and they both left her condo together. Dean had decided to leave her to work and pick her up and he didn't take no for an answer. Though April felt the commute was more for his benefit as all he did was tease her with his endless lines. Helpless she ended up smiling or laughing at them.

Who knew the Billionaire CEO could be this sweet and funny?

Dean parked outside the front doors of Walker Interiors. "I will be here at six to get you, but if you feel unwell and need to go home before that just text me and I will pick you up."

"You worry too much, all I do is sit behind a desk and design there is no hard labour involved." April gathered her bag and opened her car door.

Dean saw that she was trying to escape held her face and kissed her red lips. He had wanted to kiss those lips all morning and could no longer hold himself back.

April was still new to all this and was instantly breathless. Deans love consumed her and she felt her heart was having trouble keeping up.

Dean stopped kissing her but held her cheek and put his forehead against hers, "Message me even if you don't need me. I will miss you otherwise."

April nodded and Dean let go. She rushed out of the car like hell hounds were chasing her and Dean gave a slight chuckle at her antics.

April bumped into Aarna at the entrance doors and they greeted each other.

"Morning" April smiled at her friend. "Did you not sleep well?" She asked concerned.

Aarna nodded, "I will now be identifying as a racoon because I too have dark circles under my eyes, I eat junk food, I am small and I stay up all night and I am cute but I will fight you."

April laughed at Aarna's description of herself, "Why can't you sleep?" April asked.

"You remember Casper?" Aarna asked.

April nodded, her friend was lovesick, "Sis let that man go... What are you holding on for? He's ghosting you? Respect the dead and grieve and move on let him rest in peace."

"I know I know all that. But... Okay don't judge but at the weekend I drove six hours to meet him and he stood me up." Aarna hung her head and continued to walk by Aprils side.

April held Aarna's hand to comfort her, "I will never judge you. But Aarna... They say a butterfly can't see its own wings they can't see how beautiful they really are. We are that butterfly, so even when you can't see it when you can't see how beautiful you are just know that the rest of us can."

They both got into the lift together and Aarna hugged April.

After the hug, April continued, "The ones who love you will never leave you. Even if there are a hundred reasons to give up. They will find one reason to hold on."

"But.." Aarna tried to refute April but April interrupted her.

"Look say you won the lottery... £30 million and your friend asks for £1,800. You would say yea sure because £1,800 is like nothing. But what if they ask for all £30 million. Of course, you are going to say no. So what's the difference? There are over 30 million seconds in a year, now are you going to give them all your time or just the 1,800 they asked for? My point is your beautiful, kind, funny and have a rare heart so cry, go to the gym put the snacks down and move on. He will either come back or you will of moved on by then."

Aarna smiled and they both got out of the lift together "I may be a potato now but one day I will be a French fry and then everyone will want me."

April laughed and nodded, "Exactly."

Everyone needed a no matter what friend.

Someone they can call on no matter what. Someone they can vent to no matter what. Someone she doesn't have to explain herself to, no matter what. Aarna felt she had found that with April, with her rare heart and feisty soul.
