Nathaniel's POV

Driving down the road to Lee's unit took a little bit longer than before. An accident occurred that caused heavy traffic added by a bunch of nosy people checking on what happened.

"I think we will be stranded here for a while Lee. The cars don't seem to move." I said, still my eyes fixed on the road.

She didn't answer. I didn't bother to look at her because I was too busy driving our way out the affected road. This will take some time. It's already 10:45, but the city is still full of life because of the concert Katy Perry had here an hour ago.
Most of the people strolling the side walks are teens and people same as our age.

People this days, wasting money for some nonsense things. If people will spend their money in a useful way, the earth would be a better place to live in. Sorry if I'm too practical, but money is not something that grows on trees that you can pluck out any time you want.

I mean, it's not bad to have some break, but for me break in a way that you can expand your knowledge or something that is not typical, like going on tour around places. In that way you put your money and time in something worth it. Not that your going gaga on some person that's getting richer every time you purchase things that are related to them. Like tickets to a concert.

I'm not bitter, just acting like a real man.

Finally we managed to roll out the area and arrive in Lee's condo without a spot of trouble. "Well that was exhausting. Right Lee?" I looked at her and saw her sleeping soundly. She let out a little snor as she tugged in a little more in her warm seat.

I stared at her and unconsciously drew my self closer to her and looked at her angelic face. Her brows were naturally carved into to an arch and her cute nose is very noticable. I was observing her like a precious piece of art, until my eyes landed on her lips. It was carved into perfection.

I can't take my eyes off her, as if I was in a trance. What's this feeling?. My heart's telling me to touch those irresistible lips and feel it on mine, but my mind's telling me not to. Of course, that would be in appropriate and it would look like I'm taking advantage of her. I don't want that to happen.

I'm not yet sure of my feelings towards her. I mean,we just knew each other for just a month and I don't know her that much. There's something in her that I can't explain why I'm liking her presence. Is this what they call love?, or it's just a simple admiration?.

I shook off my thoughts and stopped staring at her. I decided to wake her up. "Hey, wake up sleepy head we're here" I said sofly, but she didn't move a bit. I tried again with a little bit of shaking, then again she didn't wake up. Now I know that this girl is hard to wake.

I decided to cary her to not disturb her peaceful sleep. I carried her out my car into the building. She's quite heavy, but she doesn't look heavy. As I was waiting in front of the elevator when a staff approached me. "Excuse me sir, do you need a hand carrying her?" She kindly asked. "Thanks. Just cary her purse for me and kindly press the 12th floor." She then held the purse and we both went inside the elevator.

As we wait inside the elevator, the girl suddenly whisperd "Sir are you Ms. Lee's boyfriend?" I let out a chuckle.

"No. Were just friends. I invited her on a dinner and we arrive a little late because of some complication on the road. I bet the long ride set her snoring on the way home. Why, do we look good together?" I whispered back.

"Oh Yes. You two look great together. You know, match made in heaven." She giggled playfully.

"Is she really a sleepy head Anny?" I asked reading her name plate hanging on her uniform. She opened Lee's room with her keys we found on her pouch.

"Ah yes. I'm in charge of this floor in house keeping and I'm having a hard time waking her up for breakfast. Her food often ended up on her front door with my note on it. She's frequently into night shifts on work that's why she sleeps a lot on day time. But don't worry, I always make sure she eats her food." She smiled as she put the purse on the desk.

"You two seem close." I can't help but wonder.

"Actually most of the staffs here are friends with her. Well she's kind and very friendly no wonder everyone here even her neighbor's seem to like her. Oops! I think I already said a lot. I'm already braking the rule in terms of privacy. I better go now sir before I spill more information." She held her mouth as if she said something bad and then hurried out before I can even say thanks.

Well, I was left alone in her room and she's now sleeping soundly on her bed. I took off her shoes, put on her blanket then turn off the lamp shade beside her bed. I then went out and closed the door. I romed a little around her place. It's spacious enough for two persons maybe? and it's pretty neat.

I looked at some picture frames standing on the shelf. Pictures of Lee when she was young was seald in a pink colored frame. She looks so cute and innocent in the photo. Another was a photo of her hugging a woman about 45 of age. I bet it's her mom. They look so happy and contented. A stolen shot of both her parents seating on a bench looking so inlove. One photo caught my attention. She's with a guy and they were laughing on the photo. They look young and it looks like they enjoy each other's company.

Is he her boyfriend? I can't remember her mentioning that's she's in a relationship. Why am I acting like this? And why am I so pissed? Uhhhh!!

I jolted when my phone on my pocket suddenly vibratet. A massage.

~ Hey!! Where are you!? It's already night time and your still out!? Come over right now. I can't sleep without my milk.~

My eyes widened the moment I read the massage.

Shit!! I forgot about Nathalie!!
