Brettly couldn’t help but smile a little when Miranda pulled him next to her and kiss his cheek. He had thought that she would be mad at him for a while. Not that he would blame her. The first five years of their marriage he gave her very little reason to trust him. Flirting with every single beautiful woman he could often in front of her. Not caring if it hurt her feelings or not. Leaning his head on hers. Enjoying the scent of her hair.  Lopping an arm around her gently caressing her back. Placing a light kiss on her forehead.<br/><br/>“ I love you too Mira. More than you ever. I just wished that I released it much earlier.” Planting a light kiss on top of her golden hair. “There’s nothing to be sorry for. I would have felt the same if I saw you kissing another man. Then again I probably would have rip the man limbs off and beat him with own arms.” His tone was joking and serious at the same time.<br/><br/>Breaking their hug. He rose up off the bed. Cross the room in a few steps. Open the small frig and took out a bottle of water. Place it on the counter near the small frig. Above the counter were cabinets that held glasses. Brettly taking two down and put them on the counter. Opening the freezer part of the frig open. Grabbing a few cubs of ice and place them in one the glass. Then added the water to the glass. Then he poured a scotch for himself.<br/><br/>“There was a time I had thought you and Thomas had a thing going. I was very jealous. Tommy is lucky to still has his limbs.” He said gave her a winked as he placed the glass of water on the night stand next to her. Brettly sitting his scotch next to her glass of water.  Taking the second plate of salmon from the tray that rested over Miranda legs. Sitting in the same sit as Thomas had not just a few minutes ago.  Picked up a fork and took a bite of salmon. Rolling his eyes as the wonderful taste of the fish filled his mouth.<br/><br/>“Geoff really out did himself on this salmon.” Acting as if the fight never happen. He couldn’t blame her for her actions. It was true that he would have felt the same and had at one time. When he thought Miranda had cheated on him with Thomas but that had been years ago. Grabbing up the remote and turn on the TV. Punching a few buttons, starting a Harry Potter movie. Another one of her  favorite movies. Long minutes passed as they each ate their dinner and watched movie. There was a knock at the door. Looking up to see Alfred at the threshold.<br/><br/>“Master Thomas said that Ms. Miranda wanted her journal. Asked if I could bring it up to her.” Alfred informed them.<br/>“Thank you Alfred.”Brettly smiled at the man that had been more of a father to him than his own had. Getting up, he places his plate on the night stand. Crossing the room and taking Miranda’s journal from him. “Night Alfred. Thank you again”patting the old man on his shoulder.<br/><br/>“Night Ms Miranda it good to have you home.” With that he left. Brettly took the journal back to Miranda. Picking up his dinner and sat  back down to finish his dinner.Place it next to incase she wanted to write something. Later she would find a note from Thomas in it. No he didn’t read her journal. Thomas simply slipped a note in between the pages of the book. So she could find it.<br/><br/><br/>“Mira,<br/>I didn’t want you think I was ignoring your question. Just thought you and Brettly needed time together. Brettly was lost when you left. He thought at first you would come back.  After a couple of months he started looking for you every chance he could. He was a compete wreck. Fearing that he lost you forever. Believing  that you finally gave up on him. Personally I would not blame if you had. The way he treated you.  He never stopped looking you.Not once.  I swear there were times he didn’t sleep. Because he be at the office in the same cloths he had on the night before. Went days, weeks without shaving. Even hiring a PI. Remington Investigations. I believe that’s the firm he hired. Any way that’s how he was while you were gone. He missed Mira. Badly !! He love you. Took him long enough to realized that.<br/><br/>Thomas.”
