Chapter 52: Fear And Freckle
Sitting on the floor, Liam started to silently cry in his heart out of fear.
He had doubts when she didn’t get mad at him...She let him hold their daughter without any hesitation... She even said that she loves him when she never said that before and even after he told her a lie she...
Why didn’t she tell me anything? Is she planning on leaving the baby with me? Is that the reason she came looking for me? What will I do without her? What will my poor daughter do without a mother?

Rory safely placed Ellie in the crib and covered her. Ellie fell asleep almost immediately after her tummy got full. She probably woke much earlier and she had spent a lot of time playing. She must be very tired.
After watching the little munchkin sleeping peacefully for a while, Rory got out of the room. She was hungry and thought of eating brunch. She carefully closed the door and just as she took a step back, she tripped over something.
She lost her balance and fell. But rather than falling face-first on the carpeted hallway, she landed on something relatably softer.
"Gosh, Fizzy!" she rubbed her arm that hurt as it hit on the wall. "Why are you sitting in the hallway?" she sat comfortably on his lap with no reservations. She was already half-sitting on him anyway!
Liam didn’t answer her and wrapped his arms tightly around her waist. He rested his head on the nook of her neck and kissed her collarbone.
"Fizzy!" Rory hissed. She felt a jolt of current passing through her spine as his lips nibbled on her neck. Holding his cheeks, she tried to make him stop kissing her. He cannot call her a friend and then kiss her like this. It makes her feel weird.
