(Esther's Point of View)
I woke up and looked at the clock, it was 8am, so I got up and I didn't feel like going across the hall, so I just raided Nate's closet. I took a shirt and went into the bathroom. I put my clothes in the laundry basket and put on his shirt that fell to my mid thigh. I closed the door softly, Nate was still asleep, so I went to the window and gazed out. A few minutes later, I heard some rustling and I felt arms go around my waist and a kiss on my cheek. "You look beautiful, hun."
I turned around and smiled up at him. He kissed my forehead and said, "Why didn't you wake me?" I told him that he looked tired and I felt like he needed the extra sleep. "Well, let's go get some breakfast."
I smiled and walked to the door, but Nate grabbed me, and pulled me back to him. "Angel, you are not going downstairs without pants." I forgot I didn't have anything on, so I ran over to my room with Nate on my tail. I put some leggings on and he smiled. He took my hand in his and led me downstairs.
After breakfast, Nate sits me down in the living room for another talk. As I sit down on the couch, my heart races. He took my hand in both of his. "Esther, I just wanted to talk about our future a little bit." I calmed down a bit after he said that. I need to learn that not everything is bad when someone says that they want to talk.
"I know that today is only Day 6; but I know you said that you wanted to wait a little while to sign so we could get to know each other a little bit better, but since you said that you will sign, I wanted to talk about the wedding ceremony and a honeymoon." I nodded and urged him to continue. "We will have the wedding on the 31st day, next week, I'll have you escorted to get a dress. I have a wedding planner on call, family tradition has it so we can't pick the colors, but we are able to customize the food we serve, our vows, and your dress is completely yours to customize." I said,
"Okay, so basically, I need to find a perfect dress, with no girls to help me decide and in only one day. We have to pick food that we can serve in less than 25 days, and I need to write a custom vow and read it aloud to you in front of total strangers? No pressure." Nate scooted closer and wrapped me in an embrace. "Angel, I will be sending my little sister with you. Her name is Irina, she's your age. I trust her fully. I'll also have a female guard with you and her name is Stella Smith along with one male guard just so I feel okay and his name is Charlie Williams, he's my top male guard. I will help you with the food, something not too messy, and nothing that even handles seafood. The only thing I can't help you with is writing your vow, when you say it, just block out everything and focus on me, I'll be right there beside you." I smiled and nodded, feeling a little bit relieved.
"Okay, next is the honeymoon. Is there any place in the world that you would love to visit?" He paused to let me think. After a few minutes, I finally said, "Maybe France or Spain." Nate smiled and said, "Awesome, I'll get a travel agent to help me plan it." He gave me a hug, before we separated, we both heard loud banging on the front door. His whole demeanor changed. A few guards came in the room and said, "Sir, Mr. Kirby is here and not happy. Would you like us to deal with it or would you like to?" Nate stood up and said that he would handle it.
"One of you stays with Esther, the rest come with me in case I need assistance. They all nodded in unison and then one sat down next to me and stared at me while the rest of them including Nate practically ran out of the room.
(Nathaniel's Point of View)
I was furious that he had the balls to find my home and to come here, banging on my door like the child he is. I went outside and confronted him.
N- "What are you doing here Anthony?"
A-"You will address me as Mr. Kirby!"
N-"I'll ask you one last time, before things get ugly.. What are you doing here Anthony?"
