Friday, continued …

"Once I have eaten the nursing staff have indicated that they will get me up so I can bathe and be ready for that appointment . But I want you to promise me that once we are done, unless the doctors want you here, you will go into the office for the rest of the day . "

"Anna, as I do not need to be in the office today …"

"Yi, I want your promise . "

"If it will make you happy . "

"It will . " And with that Anna leaned over, and Hou Yi realised that she wanted to give him a brief kiss, so he leaned in for her to do so . Rather than letting the kiss. .h.i.t is cheek, he slightly turned his head so that her lips touched his . He immediately felt a s.h.i.+ver go through him . He was so tempted to deepen the kiss, but gently pulled back to look at Anna in the eyes .

Anna, when she realised what Hou Yi had done, was so temped to take his face in her hands so that he would deepen the kiss, but before she could act Hou Yi pulled back . She was hopeful that Hou Yi could see that she wanted more than just a brief kiss .

Hou Yi looked at Anna . He did a double take on what he saw . He was certain that Anna's eyes were telling him that she wanted the kiss to go deeper than just the brief kiss before he pulled away . He leaned back in, and this time Anna grasped his face in her hands and started to deepen the kiss . Hou Yi, without breaking the kiss moved the hospital tray from the bed area, and sat carefully on the bed, next to Anna, so that they could continue to kiss .

Neither of them realised how long they had been sitting there kissing, until they heard someone clearing their throat behind them . They reluctantly pulled apart and turned towards the noise . It was one of the nursing staff . They both immediately started to blush, like they were . Anna whispered so that Hou Yi could only hear "I feel like a teenager caught by my parents," which prompted him to gently laugh .

"Apologise, however it is time for us to shower you Madam Hou . "

Hou Yi realised that he could not stay sitting on the bed, and moved towards the couch, and sat down . He watched the staff get Anna out of bed and taken her into the bathroom . He was stunned that Anna allowed him to kiss her the way he did . While he could not believe what happened Tuesday night, he was still believed that what occurred was a reaction to what happened at the theatre .

However, Anna, voluntarily allowed him to kiss her, and it was a pa.s.sionate kiss . He hoped deeply in his heart that this was a sign that she felt something for him, but he knew from his discussions with Phillipa he could not push her as it would ruin any chance, he had for what he desired ultimately, a loving marriage with her .

Anna, as she was taken into the bathroom, became lost in her own thoughts . She was so surprised that Hou Yi was willing to become pa.s.sionate in kissing her . What did this mean, he was willing to take things further, or did he feel compiled to do it because he read her signals that she wanted it to happen?

About 15 minutes later, the nursing staff brought Anna out of the ensuite . This time, rather than immediately putting her back into bed, they settled her onto the couch, but making sure that her leg was correctly supported . "Madam Hou, the Doctors said that you could sit here while dealing with the police, but once they have finished you will need to go back to bed . "

With that the nurse turned around and left . Anna looked at Hou Yi, and asked "Do I recall there being some suggestion that when I am cleared to leave the hospital there has been a recommendation that I have private nursing a.s.sistance?"

"There was . I am, today going to take steps to arrange this . "

"I have an idea …"

"Am I going to like this?"

"Absolutely . Rather than doing that, how about we call Susanne or James and ask them would they be willing to come over . Rebeccca and Rosemary could come and joint them for a few days . No strangers in the house, and I have some family around . "

"I remember Ben and Adam's warnings . Do I really want you Roesmary and Rebecca together?"

"Yi, I need some fun . " Responded Anna in a pleading voice .
