Chapter 23

Nate's POV:

"She actually slapped you?" Sam asked me again. We were in her house, lying on the bed. It was around 9 pm and I had just told her about what happened back at the office.

"Yes!" I snapped, making her pout. This was the third time she was asking me and I was pissed off already.

"Jeez! Fine." She rolled her eyes and was about to get up from the bed but I pulled her by her waist, making her fall on top of my chest.

"I'm sorry, baby. I'm just stressed out about this whole situation." I kissed her nose, trying to cheer her up.

"That doesn't mean you have to snap at me like that. I don't even care anymore, Nate. Let's just drop it," she sighed rolling back on the bed.

"No fucking way. I'm finding the person who is responsible for this and he or she is going to pay for it," I replied sternly.

"Just make sure you don't get any more slaps," she teased, earning a glare from me.

"You and Ryan almost made me believe that it could be Amy. It wasn't my fault," I mumbled under my breath, making her chuckle.

"Well, I was kinda right though. She still loves you and I'm so gonna kill that bitch for slapping you if I ever see her again."

"Hmmm...feisty. Me likey!" I smirked, pulling her closer towards me while she slapped my arm lightly.

"I'm still worried about you, baby girl. You didn't deserve to be fired like that." I added after some time.

"Awww, that's so sweet but in one way it's a good thing I guess because I have an interview tomorrow," she squealed, making me grin widely.

"That's amazing, baby. I'm sure you will get the job." I kissed her forehead. This was nice. Talking to her about anything and everything. It felt so good and I didn't feel like I had to think twice before telling anything.

It felt like home.

She felt like home.

"Yeah but this company is much bigger. I'm so nervous, Nate." She spoke in a worried tone and I looked down at her.

"You will be fine, babe. Just be your usual confident self." I assured her and she hummed in response, tucking a piece of hair behind her ears. I kept running my hands across her smooth skin and closed my eyes, savoring the moment.

"God, I love you so much." I whispered and felt her smile against my chest.

"Mmm…I love you too."

"Move in with me, baby." I blurted out and she sat up on the bed immediately and looked at me with wide eyes.

"What?"

"I want to live with you and this feels so fucking good. I…" I swallowed hard and continued, "I wanna come home to you every single day, baby girl." I replied, meaning every word and she broke into a huge smile, making my heart literally stop for a second.

Fuck, she was so beautiful and I couldn't believe that she was all mine.

"To be honest, I was going to ask you the same thing." She blushed, trying to hide her smile and it was the cutest fucking thing that I had ever seen.

"Really?" I asked, sitting up on the bed, balancing my weight with one arm and caressing her face with the other. She nodded, closing her eyes at my touch and I took her soft lips, brushing them with mine so softly and she immediately wrapped her arms around my neck, straddling my lap. I swiped my tongue against her lower lip, asking for entrance, and she opened her mouth, inviting me to devour every inch of her mouth. I could feel her erect nipples poking my bare chest through her slim tank top, making me hard in an instant.

"You are best thing that has happened to me, baby." I pulled back, resting my forehead against hers.

"I should be saying that, Nate." She sighed, burying her face in my neck and inhaling my scent deeply.

"So, is that a yes? Will you move in with me?" I asked again, hugging her tighter.

"No, I want you to move in with me."

"Why? What's the difference?" I asked with a confused look and she pulled back from my neck and looked at me with raised eyebrows.

"You wanna talk about difference? Fine, Mr. Wilson. Number one, my place is so much better and cleaner than yours. Number two, your former love used to live there. Need I say more?" she asked me with a sarcastic smile that shut me up for good.

"Well, if you put it like that...umm...then I think it's better if I move in with you, baby." I cleared my throat and gave her a sheepish grin.

"That's satisfying to hear." She smiled, giving me a chaste kiss.

"Is it now? Let me satisfy you more," I groaned against her lips and pushed her back on the bed. I got down between her legs in an instant, making her gasp and the rest of the night went...well, let's just say that neither of us got much sleep.

"Mmm...I don't mind waking up to this sight every day." I grinned lazily, watching her trying to put on her bra. She shook her head with a small smile and continued to wear the rest of her clothes while I blinked open my eyes fully and checked the time on the bedside clock. It was 8.30 in the morning and I had go to work only at 10 am.

"I need to get to my interview by 9 am and I think I'm going to be late." She whined, putting on her skirt that hugged her shapely ass and I was already having a boner underneath the sheets.

"Are you going to wear that?" I asked, rubbing my eyes to get out of my sleep daze as she kept twirling around the mirror, trying to adjust her skirt.

"Yeah, do I look bad?" she asked with a pout and I laughed at her reaction.

"Like it is possible. You look sexy as always, babe." I winked and kept gazing at her. She took her time to get ready and once she collected her things to leave, she came towards the bed and sat down beside me.

"I made you breakfast and coffee. It's in the kitchen so get your ass up from the bed soon." She pushed back my messy hair from my forehead and I couldn't help but smile at her fondly.

"Best of luck for your interview, baby girl. Not that you need any," I wished her while she pouted cutely.

"I really need it. I'll tell you how it goes though. I have to go now. Love you, bye." she smiled, giving me a quick kiss.

"Love you too, bye." I replied and watched her walk outside the room with a small smile, playing around the corner of my lips.

Man, I couldn't wait to move in with her already.
