#8 :: Not Everything Is Shared

29) NATASHA

I was making my way to my car when I heard a familiar voice.

"Hello you." Josh said making me smile.

"What you doing here?" I said as I hugged and kissed him.

"Well as you have the weekend off I thought I'd treat you."

"Treat me?"

"Yep. To a spa weekend. Just me and you."

"Oh... How nice." I said trying not to sound disappointed even though I knew from his face it did not work.

"Did I do something wrong?"

"No. Look I need to tell you something. But not here. Let's go back to the house. Meet you there yeah?" I said.

"Sure." He said.

The whole drive to my house all I was thinking was how the hell am I going to tell him that I have never had sex before. I mean I'm surprised he's been so patient this whole time. He deserves to know I just don't know how to say it without accusing him of wanting sex when he's yet to even bring it up.

As we got inside I could see that he looked somewhat worried.

"Okay so, I know that there are times when you stay over and we are in the bed and you may start getting close and I push you away. There's a reason..."

"You're a virgin..." He said as he finished my sentence for me.

"How..."

"How did I know? I like to think I know my woman. Is that why you seemed disappointed in the gift? Because you thought I was trying to have sex with you?"

"No.. But like you go to a spa and that's kind of expected as a couple init?"

"Well I guess but that wasn't why. That would be a waste of money if that's why I did it. I did it because you work so hard and you are always there for others but what about you? Someone needs to be there for you like you are for others. I like to think I could be that person. As for sex, that's whenever you are ready babe." He said.

I smiled. I was starting to believe this man could do no wrong.

"I'm sorry. I just panicked."

"No need to panic. You can even take the gift and go with your friends or your sister. I don't want you to feel as if I'm trying to force you into anything."

"NO! No. I couldn't do that. I want to go with you. That would be nice."

The weekend away was just what I needed and Josh was a true gentleman I felt myself falling for him. Well at least that's what I thought. I hadn't felt this way before. But I liked it. Josh made me feel like a princess. Like I was the only girl in the world. The only girl that matters.

Now that I was back I had two weeks to make sure Stephanie had the best baby shower ever. This girl decided last minute that she wanted a baby shower. Initially she didn't want one because Stephanie isn't one to have celebrations. She says it reminds her of the fact she doesn't actually have her biological parents or any blood siblings. Even though she appreciates and loves her family I can understand when she does feel some type of way.
