*Natalie*

Saturday came too slow for me this week. A huge smile is permanently plastered on my face as I can literally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I’m giddy all over as I heard the sweetest news when I woke up this morning. Nate and Liz are coming back tonight! Translation: I am free as of tomorrow morning. Heck, I might even leave early in the morning and get the jet ready for Madrid.

My excitement is bubbling over that even Tristan noticed because I made the most fattening, least healthy breakfast for him this morning. Even Kyle kept on giving me weird looks as I practically bounce within the walls of my brother’s house. He came home pretty early this morning. Apparently, he didn’t wanna miss out on watching me do yoga. What a guy he is!

“So, Kyle do you have any plans at all today?” I asked before taking in a spoonful of mushroom soup in my mouth.

“No. Why, you wanna take me out for another date?” Kyle asked with a wiggle of his brows. I groaned out of frustration as I hear Tristan snicker with his uncle’s teasing tone.

“Actually, I wanted to ask if you can look after Tristan for the rest of the afternoon. I just needed to pick up some things from the condo and do some shopping before Nate and Liz get back tonight. Is that okay?”

“Yeah, it should be fine. I got nothing to do until tonight anyway. Remember, I have to show Leland around town?” Kyle said putting quotations around the word show.

“Right! Your man-date” I chirped with a smirk on my face.

“Ugh, Alie please don’t call it that” Kyle groaned as he dramatically shivered from my labeling his outing with Leland as a date.

“Aren’t you taking him to some sleazy bar or even some tourists spots? I swear that’s how you conduct your usual dates” I said with a wicked smile on my face.

Kyle just rolled his eyes at my teasing but didn’t object to my assumptions on where he conducts his dirty deeds with various women. I let Tristan take his leave then to play in the living room or do whatever he wants as long as he stays indoors. I gathered all the empty dishes from the dining table and made my way to the kitchen. I started rinsing out the dirty dishes in the sink and then, I loaded them in the dishwasher.

As soon as Tristan was in the living room, Kyle came up from behind me to wrap me in an embrace and started nuzzling my neck. I squirmed away from him but his hold on me kept me pinned against the kitchen counter by the sink.

“Admit it Alie, you’re jealous that I’m not taking you out for a night in town.” Kyle purred seductively as he started running the tip of his nose from the bottom of my neck up to my jaw. His warm breath heats up my skin like I’m getting scorched by an invisible torch.

“Oh, yeah as if Lily. You‘d probably like that too much” I said with a laugh as I flicked some water on his face.

He pulled away from my neck just to rest his face on my shoulder to wipe the water away. Then, he abruptly turned me around to face him. My breath was caught in surprise at his sudden action. He smirked for my benefit when he saw the shocked look on my face. His eyes sparkle with mischief as he looks directly in mine.

I don’t know what’s going on but for some reason, my body started reacting to every part that is in contact with his. I am suddenly on fire with need for him to get us closer. As if reading my mind, he pulled our bodies closer making the tips of our noses touch. Why is he doing this to me? No good can come out of this, I thought. His azure eyes painstakingly flickered from my blue-grey ones down to my lips. Unknowingly, I mirrored his action.
