Better Than Words (Book 2)

Chapter 18

It was a lot to take in on what he announced to me last night but I managed to cope with it and said yes. We don't fully have a moving date yet but we're thinking of May 3rd of next year. So about eight to nine months to go.

I woke up at 7am. Zayn was still asleep so I grabbed my work clothes and jumped into the shower. Stepping out of the shower I grabbed the white towel and rubbed my hair in it before wrapping the towel 'round my body and let me messy hair fall past my shoulders before stepping out of the room grabbing my undergarments that I forgot to grab. As I went to my drawer I heard a wolf whistle coming from Zayn making me jump.

"Zayn! You freaking scared me!" I pressed my hand to my chest.

"Sorry, you just look fantastic!" He murmured walking over to me and wrapped his arms around my waist. And as always he was in his boxers.

"I have to get ready for work, could you wake up Carly for me and get her ready for school?" I questioned before giving him a quick morning kiss.

Zayn nodded. "Of course! I'll just have to put on pants first..."

I turned around to the bathroom and laughed. "You go do that. You don't want to scar our daughter seeing her dad in his underwear."

"Hey!" Zayn said. I snickered before heading into the bathroom to get changed. After I slipped on my clothes I put on my belt and slipped on some things in the little holders (a/n I couldn't describe it but I hope you know what I mean! Ha) and hooked on the walkie talkie that was connected to a spiral cord around my neck.

When I walked downstairs I smelt the aroma of English Muffins fill the kitchen.

"Smells good." I hummed as I opened the fridge for a glass of Orange juice.

"Thanks, Carly is watching TV so she's ready whenever your ready," Zayn motioned towards the living room with his head.

"Thank you," I said pushing myself up on the counter and he came between my legs. (a/n please don't take it the wrong way! Lol!)

"You are welcome baby," he muttered while leaning in to kiss me. The kiss soon departed and I leaned over to grab an english muffin and hopped off the counter.

"I got to go, I'll be back around 5 or 6," I informed Zayn before grabbing my keys and gave him a quick hug and a kiss.

"Time to go Carly, give daddy a hug," I said.

She obeyed. "Bye daddy," she gave him a hug before walking over to the door.

"Bye sweetie! Have a great day at school!"

Finally I arrived at work after dropping Calry off at school.

"Emma!" My partner, Kimberly Young shouted from our ambulance truck. "I'm glad your back. I miss you!"

"I missed you too Kimberly!" I gave her a hug before greeting the boys.

Everyone was excited to see me and saying they missed me as well. I was just gone for a few days ok?

I'm still debating if I should tell my fellow co-workers the news about me and the family moving to London in nine months. Eh, I'll save it for later.

"Engine and Truck 51 to 108 avenue, apartment building  fire." The speaker announced.

Carden ordered Everyone to get off our butts and go to the scene as Kimberly and I stood up and grabbed our stuff and made sure we have everything and left, with the fire truck following behind.

When we arrived at the scene I parked the truck with it still running I got out and looked up at the building engulfed in flames.

"Please! Help my son is in there he can't move!" A frantic mother screamed her short burgundy hair blowing in the wind.
