Chapter 185
Nicol
I couldn’t believe Anton, how on earth did he think threatening Nicolas will make him call him. I mean didn’t he know Nicolas by now. It’s the fastest you will put Nicolas off you, is when you threaten him or anyone he loved. “Are you okay with not having Candy to help?” “Yes, off course but I will need some kind of help.” “I’ll put you in touch with the women that organized the Christmas Gala.” “That would be wonderful.” “See we don’t need Anton or Candy for that matter we can sort this out by ourselves.” “I totally agree with you. Now enough about me how was your day?” “Well, I did something today, something I’m sure you will be happy about.” “Okay. What is it?” “I bought a new SUV.” “Why?” I asked a bit shocked I was sure we were going to the hospital for the delivery in the limousine and our children will be drive around in the limousine for the rest of their lives not that I like the limousine at all. I prayed for the day he realized that the limousine wasn’t working for us. “I thought we need a family car and the limousine isn’t really children friendly, is it?” “I didn’t want to say anything but no it definitely isn’t.” “You want to go and have a look at the SUV?” “Yes please.”
Clearly Nicolas was very impress with his purchased today. He took my hand like a child that was excited to show his mom and dad something. He pulled me towards the lifts as the lift open, he stood to one side “Ladies first.” He said with a huge smile. “Why thank you, always the gentleman. He pressed the button for the garage and the lift started to move. When the lifts doors open the gentleman was gone and the kid was back. He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards a car that was standing next to the limousine. Okay so he didn’t get rid of it. Which probable makes sense if we go to fancy gala’s or even the charity event I need to organize. The new car was a funny black. “What do you think?” He asked standing with his hands facing the SUV like he wanted to say Ta da. “It’s very nice, what kind of black is this?” “Oh, feel sweetheart it’s matt black it doesn’t shine.” I felt the car and he was right it wasn’t as smooth as the shiny colors. He opens the back door for me. “Wow here’s enough space for all of us. We can have the baby seat here in the back with Nikki and you and me can sit here.” “Exactly my thoughts.” “You want to take it for a drive?” “Now?” “Yes, why not.” “We haven’t told Nikki.” “I’m sure she’s still on the phone let’s take it for a spin.” “I wouldn’t say no.” He opens the driver side of the SUV for me and he got in in the passenger side. He gave me the keys. When I turned it and I heard the engine I knew why he bought this SUV. I put the SUV in reverse and slowly reversed out the parking area. It’s been a while since I’ve been behind a steering wheel but being behind this one makes it worth it.
When we got onto the street, Nicolas gave me directions to a quieter part of the city, he wanted me to drive a little faster in that area, he wanted me to feel how the car sits on the road, whatever that meant. When we finally got to an open stretch he said “Now put your foot down on the petrol.” He didn’t need to invite me twice if there is one thing Nicolas and I had in common it was speed. I started to go faster and faster when I looked at the speedometer I realized how fast we were actually going, I lifted my foot from the petrol, making the SUV going slower. “And now?” “Jeez Nicolas you don’t even feel how fast you are going in this car.” “I know right it’s awesome.” “I think I had enough you can take over.” I stopped the SUV jumped out and moved to the passenger seat. Nicolas got in on the driver side. You should now when you drive yourself scared you should rather get out, no matter how much you like speed.
Nicolas drove us back home. “That was amazing.” I said as I got out of the SUV. “I did good right?” “You did.” I said as I kissed him on the cheek. He took my hand and we walked towards the lift, when the lifts doors open on our floor Nikki was standing there waiting for us, actually tapping her foot. “What’s wrong sweet pea?” Nicolas asked her immediately. “Kevin has the flu his going to be out of school another 2 days.” “He can’t help it, Nikki.” I told her “I know but I miss him if his not at school.” I actually rolled my eyes because come on you are boyfriend and girlfriend for 2 days and now you will miss him. Am I really ready for this. Nicolas took over. “It’s okay sweet pea you can call him tomorrow again, okay?” “Okay.” She gave Nicolas’s phone back looked at me and said “I saw that.” Then she turned around and went back to her room. Nicolas looked at me “What’s going on?” “I rolled my eyes when she said she missed him at school.” “Oh, mommy is in the dog house.” He teased me. “Apparently I am let’s say it’s the hormones.” “I’m not so sure Nikki is going to fall for that.” “I know. I probable need to go an apologize. I don’t want her to roll her eyes at us I probable need to set a better example.” “Probable.” Nicolas said laughing as he walked into the apartment.
