Chapter 69

And then he was gone.

"You and you and you your gonna love me"....

Singing at the top of my lungs I stepped out the shower wrapping the towel around my body.

I was happy.

For once I woke up looking forward to what lay ahead. I was going back to work and because my car was still at the clubhouse Nate was picking me up. Rubbing another towel through my hair I left the bathroom and made my way down to the kitchen.

It sure was a beautiful day outside.

Putting some bread into the toaster I dropped my towel and pulled on the clean panties and bra that were hanging on my clothes horse. The best thing about having my own house? Strutting about naked and not giving a damn.

Dancing away as my music played from upstairs I couldn't help but smile. I felt different and as stupid as it may sound I felt free. Hearing a knock at the door only made my smile grow wider. He was early.

"Coming" I yelled, prancing over to the door I pulled it open. "Why did-Oh shit" I yelped slamming the door in his face. Taking a deep breath I opened the door back up this time only showing my head.

"I'm so sorry I thought you were my boyfriend. Can I help you?" I asked feeling embarrassed. There's nothing like answering the door in your underwear to who you thought was your boyfriend and it turns out to be a delivery driver.

"Don't mind me" He grinned "I have a parcel for you I just need you to sign and I'll be in my way".

A parcel?

"Are you sure you have the right address?" I questioned. I wasn't into taking stuff when I didn't know what it was or who sent it.

"Are you Ava Mendez?" He asked

"Yes".

"Then it's definitely for you" Placing the parcel on my front step he handed me his electronic pad so I could sign for it.

"Do you know what it is?" I asked handing him his pad back. Who could be sending me stuff? And more importantly what the hell was it?

"I only deliver the good miss now you have a good day" He smiled turning his back on me and walking back to his van.

Once he was gone I reached out and picked the parcel up shaking it slightly. Closing the front door I walked back to the kitchen and sat it on the table taking a seat I stared at it for a few seconds. Shrugging my shoulders I ripped the packaging open only one persons name coming to mind when I saw what it was.

A new IPhone!

Ripping of the sticky note that was attached to it I laughed at what it read.

'I was going to buy you a Nokia 3310 because they aren't easily broken but since you've been a good girl I decided against it. Let me know when you've received my gift beautiful girl' Shaking my head I lay the note aside and opened up my new phone. Turning it on I left it as I went in search for my lap top.

How did he expect me to let him know when I didn't have his number? That was my first thought when I set everything up. Scrolling through everything I jumped when it vibrated in my hand. Opening up the message my cheeks hurt from smiling yet again.

'I realised you wouldn't have my number. How's your new toy? N xx'

The question was how did he have this number?

'You didn't have to buy me a new phone Nate but I am very grateful and I will pay you back. Are you still able to pick me up?'

After hitting send I left the kitchen and headed for my bedroom. Rummaging through my closet I pulled out a knee length black dress a pair of tights and my black pumps. Once I was dressed I pulled my hair into a messy bun, applied some lip gloss to my lips and pinched my cheeks to give them some color.

I was good to go and I was ready to go back to work. I miss doing what I love heck I missed the hospital and my patients. Turning off my docking station I made sure everything else was off before I headed back downstairs.

"Is this meant to be your breakfast?" Nate asked causing a squeal to fall from my lips. There he was leaning against my counter my now burnt toast in his hand and a smirk plastered across his face.

"You scared me" I muttered my hand still pressed against my heart. "Do you like breaking into people's houses?" I grinned making my way towards him. Slipping his arms around my waist he pecked me on the lips before resting his forehead against mine.

"I'm pretty sure I'm aloud to break into my girlfriends house especially when I've been waiting out side for the last 15 minutes" He grinned rubbing his nose against mine. "In fact when you leave the door open its not really breaking in".

"Were you really waiting outside for 15 minutes?" I asked breathing in his cologne.

"Not really" He whispered dropping his arms from around my waist. "But I couldn't wait to see your wee face" He grinned turning around and rustling through a bag. How could something like that make me blush?

"You looking forward to being back at work?" He asked handing me a coffee and a muffin. "Eat I don't want you going to work on an empty stomach".

"You're to good to me Nate Thomas" I smiled taking the muffin and digging right in. "Chocolate chip my favourite" I moaned as the flavours exploded on my tongue. "Yeah I'm excited about going back but I'm also a little nervous". Taking a sip of my coffee I finished of the rest of my muffin.

"Don't be nervous babe you'll be fine" He whispered his arms making there way back around my waist.

I wasn't used to this. I didn't know how to be a girlfriend all I was used to was being independent.

"What's causing that little frown?" He asked knocking me out of my thoughts. Sinking my teeth into my bottom lip I pressed my hands against his chest. I may not be used to it but I liked it and I liked Nate. "Everything's good" I smiled sliding my hands up his chest so I could hook them around his neck. "I'm good".

"Good" He grinned pressing his lips against mine. "You ready to leave?"...
