"Yes, it's your hubby—" Owen enthusiastically yelled.
Andrew frowned and pursed his lips. He wasn't getting a good feeling about the entire situation.
"Give the phone to Rachael." When Owen kept talking to someone else, he snapped, "Owen—"
"Yeah bro….what's up?" He chuckled. "We are having fun, you should join us."
"Give…. the…phone…to Rachael," Andrew gritted his teeth. He was getting annoyed.
"Rach—your hubby wants to talk to you." Pausing for a while, he said, "Oh I am sorry, your wife is busy with Elsa."
Andrew sighed and pinched the space between his brows. He was trying his best not to snap at his stupid cousin who was definitely drunk and high on something.
"Where are you guys?"
"I have no idea but it's a very cool place," Owen exclaimed.
"Send me your location." When he did not say anything and kept hooting, Andrew snapped, "Owen—focus."
"Rachael and Elsa kissed each other."
Andrew: " "
...
[Hilton High Club]
After getting the location from Owen, Andrew arrived at the club to pick his wife up.
When he stepped out of the car, he saw Justin standing near the entrance with Edward who was fast asleep in his arms.
When he saw Andrew, Justin breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank God you are here—"
"Why did you bring Edward here?"
"I was in the mall with him when Elsa called me." He frowned, "She sounded very drunk."
Gently patting Edward's back, he added, "I cannot leave him alone in the car and I can't take him inside. Can you bring Elsa out with you?"
Andrew nodded before entering the club.

[Inside]
The club wasn't that crowded as it was still early. When Andrew couldn't find them, he tried calling Rachael again and this time she answered the call.
"Rachael?" When she did not say anything, he frowned and was about to say something when he heard a retching sound.
He pursed his lips and quickly hung up before calling Owen. As soon as he answered the call, Andrew inquired, "Where the f*uck are you people?"
"Washroom—"
…..
[Washroom]
When Andrew entered the washroom, Owen was holding Elsa in one hand while his other hand was holding Rachael's hair as she was throwing up.
"It's okay, take it easy," Owen remarked as he tried his best to stand straight.
"How much did you people drink?" Andrew snapped while he approached them.
As soon as Owen saw him, he threw Elsa in his arms before rushing to the other cubicle to throw up.
"Stand straight," Andrew yelled at Elsa as he grabbed her shoulders.
"I am going to throw—" Elsa kneeled on the floor and started retching.
Andrew pursed his lips, trying very hard to control the frustration he was feeling. He then grabbed Elsa and Rachael's hair as they continued to throw up.
…..
[Fifteen minutes later]
Supporting Elsa and Rachael in his arms, Andrew brought them outside, while Owen somehow staggered behind them.
When Justin approached him, he quickly handed over Elsa to him. "Take her with you."
"What the—" He tapped Elsa's cheeks. "El—"
When she groaned and scrunched her brows, Andrew said, "When I found them, they were throwing up in the washroom."
He then grabbed Owen's arm and pushed him towards Justin. "Drop him too."
"I brought my car, I'll drive—" Owen mumbled.
"Dude, you can't even stand properly." Justin grabbed his collar and dragged him towards his car.
After they left, Andrew scooped Rachael in his arms before walking towards his car.
Burying her face on his neck, she muttered, "Andrew—"
"Hmm…?"
She lifted her head and slowly opened her eyes. "You came—" She smiled and cupped his cheeks.
When he saw her bloodshot eyes, he frowned, "How much did you drink Rachael?"
"I don't remember—" She answered before resting her chin on his shoulder.
Andrew sighed and helplessly shook his head.
...
[Collin's Mansion]
Holding his drunk wife in his arms, Andrew kicked the bedroom door open.
When he placed her in the bed, Rachael slowly opened her eyes. "Are we home?"
"Yes." Taking her heels off, he covered her with the quilt. "I'll get you some warm water." But before he could get up, she grabbed his hand.
"What happened? Do you want something else?"
Kicking the quilt off, she crawled in his lap. Placing one hand on his cheek and the other at the back of his neck, she inched closer. "Andrew—"
"Hmm?"
"I think I am falling for you, what should I do?"
When he did not say anything, she rested her forehead on his. "I am scared."
"Why are you scared?" he inquired as his hands caressed the side of her arms.
"I don't know, I am just scared." Pausing for a while, she remarked, "What if I fall for you and you don't?"
"Silly—" He brushed his lips against hers. "We have been married for over a month now, can't you feel it already? I am head over heels for you Rachael. I am just waiting for you to catch up."
"Then will you wait for me a little longer?" She looked at him and chuckled, "I am almost there."
"There is no rush, I am willing to wait for you forever." He smiled and caressed her cheek with his thumb. "You can take your time."
Looking at him with teary eyes, she said, "I want to give you the best version of me Andrew, I want to give you my all. I want to give my one hundred percent to our relationship and I want to be with you forever. I just need some time—"
Though she was very sure about her newfound romantic feelings about Andrew, there was something that was holding her back. Rachael had no idea what it was but that feeling kept pulling her down.
"Take all the time you need, Love." Andrew pressed his lips on her forehead. "I will always be there for you, whenever you are ready."
Keeping quiet for a while, Rachael said, "Sometimes I feel I don't deserve this, I don't deserve you." She buried her face on his neck and sobbed for a while.
