F*ckin' Perfect

Chapter 12: The Ex

Nic's POV

I was having a wonderful dream of me and Natalie skipping through a field of flowers when I was oh so rudely awaken by a prodding in my side. I just groaned and buried my head into my pillow, which was Natalie's chest, while the prodding just continued.

"Nic, I have to get up. I have a tutor session today." I shook my head, increasing my grip on Natalie's form.

"Noooo, I don't wanna..." She let out a slight sigh as her hand brushed my side, making me giggle before I froze.

"Oh, what's this? Are you ticklish, Nic?" My eyes instantly flew open as I sat up, scooting away from Natalie and falling onto the floor.

"No, don't you dare." Natalie smirked, and my god, it was so damn sexy, and if she wasn't trying to tickle me, I probably would have made out with her.

"Well, since I got you up and out of my bed, I think I can let it slip since I need to get ready. Next time though..." She just smirked while she stood, gathered some clothes, and left for the bathroom. All the while I was sitting on the floor, a shocked expression on my face. Can I have that Natalie more often?

Instead of sitting on the floor, doing nothing, I stood and changed into a black shirt I found in Natalie's drawers and my jeans again. I had to admit, Natalie had a great taste in clothes. Granted, I probably wouldn't wear most of them, but I would love to see her in them. After changing, I made my way downstairs, where I located some tea and made myself a cup. Then I made a cup for Natalie using the non-caffinated kind.

"Good morning, gorgeous. Would you like some tea?" I handed her the caffine-free cup, which she took gratefully.

"Thanks, tea sounds great right now." I nodded in agreement, taking a large gulp from mine before beginning to raid her cabinets.

"What does one have for breakfast around here?" She walked over to the fridge and opened a cabinet next to it.

"We have some oatmeal, or granola bars in here." I followed her over, snagging a box of granola bars and taking out three.

"This'll have to do for now. How about after the tutoring session we go out to eat?" She nodded as she took out a couple of bars from the same box.

"Sounds great." That made me smile as Natalie gathered up a couple of things.

"So, how long do your tutoring sessions last? I mean, the ones where you actually study." I couldn't help but wink at her, which made her cheeks flush.

"About an hour. Sometimes a little less than that, depending on how many questions Amanda asks me." An eyebrow raised on its own as I watched her pick up the bag.

"I'm guessing Amanda is your tutor buddy, or whatever?" She nodded before we left the house.

"Yes, she's in fifth grade currently. So you don't need to worry about me being stolen away." I smiled a bit, starting up the car as we climbed into it.

"That's good, because you're all mine." As she looked over at me, I leaned in and gently nipped her nose with my teeth. She blushed a bit, making me peck her lips before we heading out. "Anyway, where is this place?"

"Just the town library. Do you really want to come with me?" I nodded, smiling a bit as I grabbed her hand.

"Yeah, I'll just sit to the side, or whatever and remain quiet. Maybe explore a bit, it's been a while since I've visited the town library." She nodded and we fell into a comfortable silence. It made me smile that I could be quiet like this with Natalie and not have it be awkward. However, since the town library was a fifteen, or so, minute drive, I eventually turned on the radio.
