Natasha left for her trip and of course, I spent my day in the library. 

I looked down at the pages of the book but all I could focus on was Natasha: the way she looked at me, how her hands felt on my hips. I shake the thought out of my head.

 Even my mom knew about her womanizing, I couldn't let myself fall into that trap.

After getting absolutely nothing done I thought I'd reward myself with a shopping trip.

"Miss Phoenix, so lovely to see you again" the sales associate at Dior says to me as I walk in, "Mr. Logan could you please lock the doors until Miss Phoenix is finished," he says to the doorman who responds with a nod. I pick out a pair of brown men's dress pants, 2 tees, and some gold necklaces.

"Miss Phoenix, we have something very special for you today," says Alexa, the sales associate.

"A Birkin?"

She looks at me with a smile and nods.

"I don't care what color, wrap it up. I want it to be a surprise," I squeal. 

She comes back with a big orange shopping bag and congratulates me.

"Y/N?" I hear someone say as I'm putting my card back into my purse. I look up to see his perfectly styled hair, beautiful skin, and bright brown eyes. "I thought that was you," he continues with his rich British accent.

"Eden, hey I thought you were in Italy," I say giving him a tight hug.

"Something brought me back, do you have time for lunch? I'd love for you to join me," 

"Ma'am?" The secret service interrupts putting his arm in between Eden and I.

"Don't worry I know him," I respond and he backs away again.

"Ah yes, The president's daughter. Congratulate your mom for me, she always did say she'd hope to run."

"you should come over to the White House while you're here, I know she'd love to see you."

"Of course," he takes a few moments, "Y/N I've missed yo-"

I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket, "one sec" I interrupt him, "I have to take this sorry"

"I'll wait over there" he points to some chairs.

"Senator? What's going on?"

"Y/N, I know I said I didn't need you but I forgot an important report on my desk and I need it for my speech later. Is there any way you can head to the office now and fax it to me?"

"I'm on my way now, "

Eden stands up when he sees me walk over to him.

"Sorry I have to go, I'm working with Senator Romanoff and she needs my help with something. Come over tonight it's our monthly dinners, It's either bowling or swimming so bring trunks"

"I'll see you tonight," He said kissing my cheek as a goodbye.

"Hey, honey I was just about to go up and get you," my mom says while handing Theo a burger.

"Yeah sorry I fell asleep," I say waving at the dads at the grill.

"How's your internship with Romanoff? She's a tough Senator. Really good at her job though," Miss Harris asks only half listening, her attention was on the boy as she stuffed a paper napkin in his shirt to prevent him from staining it.

"I've learned a lot from her actually-" I begin, then Theo drops his food and begins to throw a tantrum, they both jump to comfort him and forget about their conversation with me. 

I walk over to Sydney who was laying on a pool float with her eyes closed.

"Hey sexy, what's up?" I say sliding into the pool.

"You missed it, Theo almost drowned and your dad went in to save him,"

"My dad? He can't swim"

"Yeah," she laughs, "our moms had to jump in to save them"

My dad was a sweet guy but not one of much physical activity, his habit was cars and houses. He had been a successful real estate agent before my mother ran for President. She served in the army for 5 years so aside from being a very stern person she was also physically fit.

"Eden!!" My mother and miss Harris scream and run over to the overdressed man. They'd always loved him.

"Eden?" Sydney says looking over at me.

"I'll explain later," I say getting out of the pool to greet him.

"Y/N you didn't tell us Eden was coming," my mother says with a big smile.

"Must've slipped my mind," I hug him, "I hope you brought trunks," I say looking at his nice suit.

"No, I did not think you were serious about the pool," He whispers with a glint of embarrassment.

"Borrow one of mine son," my dad screams from the grill.

"I'll go with you," I say to him, taking a hold of his hand.

"Thank you, sir," he yells back at him.

-----

"Here these should fit" I hand over a blue pair of swim trunks.

"I miss you," he says, grabbing both my hands softly.

"Don't say that," I sigh.

"It's true, I've come back for you, I'm willing to stay here and make it work,"

"Please let's not talk about this right now, let's just enjoy the evening," 

" y/n," he grabs my face. "I still love you"

I pull his hand away and step back, "you asked me to marry you, and when I said I needed time, you left," I retort.

"I was hurt," he raises his voice.

"You seemed to move on rather quickly in Italy," I say at the same volume. "I read the papers, 'Eden Vos, British playboy, spotted kissing 5th girl this month"

"I know," he says sitting on the edge of the bed. "I was trying to replicate the feeling of you, I thought about you every second of every day, and I just-" he sighs, "I love you"

I wasn't sure whether I felt the same or not but I smashed my lips into his. All the feelings of anger I had towards him and Wanda melt away in the kiss, bringing only back the good in it all. They had both broken me so bad and I'd spent so long getting over it but I missed feeling wanted, really wanted.

"We should get back," I say pulling away, "they'll get suspicious."


A/N: the whole buying a Birkin seems out of place I know but, I want to highlight Y/Ns wealth.  Anyway, what do ya think of Eden Vos? 😏
