You were forced to marry a successful business man, Liam. He had haphephobia and hated anybody touching him.

It was also said that he would have major anger episodes if anybody touched him.

Except for one person.

Selena, her ex-girlfriend, his lover before he had to break up with her due your and his marriage.

One day, he was feeling very sick. He couldn't even get up and he was really burning up real bad.

You tried putting a cold cloth on his forehead but he refused, even when you insisted you'd put a gloves.

Everytime you tried to check his temperature he would stare at your hand like it's some type of wasp.

You sighed as you closed his bedroom door. You have no choice now. You didn't want his condition to get worse so you decide to call his ex-girlfriend.

It didn't matter if it made your heart ache. You just wanted him to get better.

You rang her, "hello, is this Selena?"

You hear some shuffling, "Yes, this is Selena. Who is this?"

"I'm Liam's wife. You see he's sick and I was wondering if you'd be willing to come over to—"

Suddenly, out of the blue, somebody yanked the phone out of your hand and declined the call.

The gesture was overly aggressive. You turned around, confused. Liam stood there, trembling, his bottom lip quivering.

You never saw this side of him before, genuinely shocked you.

"Why... were you calling Selena?" He looks at you, his eyes softly gazing at you.

You gulped, "I heard that you felt comfortable Selena touching you, so I didn't—"

Impulsively, he swiftly brings you into a hug. "You're the only one I want laying a finger on me. Got that?"

He squeezes you, "I just didn't want touching me for the first time just to get my sickness... it would be unbearable."
