Chapter: 12

Nathan Petterson

I made it to her Aunt's house around 10. I just hope she doesn't slam the door in my face. I got out of my truck and rang the doorbell. I noticed all of the lights were off. I may have to wait until tomorrow morning. I started walking back to my truck when the door opened. I turned around and there she was. She had her brown hair in a messy bun on top of her head. Her face was free of makeup. It looks like she's been crying. She had a pair of pajama pants on. She had a robe that was covering her belly. Her eyes met mine and she took a deep breath.

I walked up to her and grabbed her hand. "Ali? Can we talk?"

Her eyes went back up to mine before she answered. "Nathan it's late.."

She dropped my hand and started to head back to the door. I grabbed her arm and said, "Please? Hear me out.."

She closed the door and leaned on the wall. She wouldn't look at me. I took a deep breath before I talked. "Ali, I left my phone in my office. I came back and Tina was in my office. I told her to leave. She then pushed me against the wall and asked me to have sex with her. I told her there was no way in hell I would do that. I told her to get out again and she was walking out when she pushed herself on me again. She kissed me and I instantly pushed her away. She walked out finally. I was sitting in my office mad when I noticed my phone gone. I caught her talking to you."

"Why didn't you just tell me that in the first place?" She placed her hands on her hips.

"I don't know. There is no excuse for me lying.." I hung my head.


Allison Hall

"I don't know. There is no excuse for me lying.." He hung his head. I couldn't stand being mad anymore. I walked up to him and forced him to look at me. His gray eyes had a hint of sadness in them.

"Come inside." I grabbed his hand and led him into the house.

My Aunt Leslie was in the living room. "Aunt Les, this is my fiancé Nathan. Nathan this is my Aunt Leslie."

She walked over to Nathan and extended her hand. He shook her hand. "Nice to finally meet you! My niece talks a lot about you!"

"It's nice to finally meet you also!" He says to her.

"Are you tired?" I ask him.

"Actually I am." He yawns.

"Aunt Les, we're headed to bed." I tell her.

"Okay dear! You two better work this out!" She says as she's walking out of the room!

I let out a laugh and lead him to the room that I'm staying in. I've already brushed my teeth, so I stripped off my robe and set it on the chair in the corner of the room. I look over to Nathan and he's standing off to the side, not knowing what to do. I go into the closet and grab out an extra pillow and blankets. I set down the pillow and the blankets on the couch that is on one of the side walls.

"I guess I'll be on the couch tonight?" Nathan asks. Not trusting my voice, I just nod in agreement. "I'm not complaining, I know I deserve it."

I didn't speak; I turned off my side lamp and slid into bed. I heard the sound of him taking off his pants and t-shirt before fixing up the coach as a bed. I tried to sleep, I really did. I tossed and turned half of the night. Finally, I got tired of not being able to sleep, so I turned over to look in the direction of Nathan. He looked like he was awake with both of his hands behind his head, staring at the ceiling.

"Nathan?" I whispered. I saw him stir a little before looking in my direction. He looked confused. I motioned for him to come here. I miss him beside me! I can't sleep without him anymore!

He eased off of the couch and made his way to me. I slid to the other side, allowing him to take the space I was just occupying. That's normally his side anyway. I only laid there because I missed him.

He slipped into the sheets and faced me. I kept my eyes locked with his, not wanting to ever lose him again. It's more of my fault; I'm the one who left. I scooted closer to him, wanting to touch him so bad. "I missed you.." I whispered.

He slung his hand over my side. "I missed you too.. So much!"

"I'm sorry for leaving." I apologize.

He looked at me and said, "No, I'm sorry for not coming to find you sooner.."

"It's okay!" I finally allow myself to smile again.

His hand slid down my side. I allowed myself to get closer to him so that we were flush against each other. "Can I kiss you?" He asks.

That confused me for a moment. When has he ever had to ask? "I'd be mad if you didn't!" I smirk at him.

He props up on his elbow. I sit up a little myself so it's easier to kiss him.  Our lips finally meet and I couldn't help but smile. I missed this! I don't want to lose him, ever! Our lips move together, slowly. Neither of us deepens the kiss; we just let our emotions take us to wherever they allow us to go. After we pulled apart, we both couldn't help but smile.

"I Love you Allison." He says, his thumb rubbing soothing, circles on my hip.

"I love you too Nathan." I say.

He pecks my lips once more, before we snuggle up to each other and go straight to sleep. I was content and happy in his arms again.
