Forever

Part 15

Sarah was accompanying Nick to his People en Espanol photo shoot. It had been five days since they had sex, and the tension was building up. She watched Nick take photo after photo, looking sexy as hell, wanting him. He made eye contact with her several times during the shot, and she knew he felt the same way. But, both were too stubborn to give in to the other. 

"Why don't we get a few photos of you with Sarah?", the photographer asked. Nick clapped his hands together loudly, loving the idea. Sarah, though, needed some convincing. When she finally agreed, the photographer told them to just be themselves, that he'd do all the work. They did a few awkward 'couple' poses, before Nick began tickling Sarah's side, making her laugh. She hugged him, and he picked her up, spinning her around. They forgot about the cameras, being their usual goofy selves. The photographer moved very quietly, not wanting to break the mood. 

Once he got his shots, the photographer asked them to kiss. Sarah felt shy, putting on a show for a room full of strangers. She bit her lip, looking up at Nick expectantly. He took her face in his hands, rubbing his thumb over her lip, before pressing his lips against hers. They kissed as if they were the only two people in the room. She bit his lip as they pulled apart, gripping his shirt in both hands. He had one hand buried in her hair, pulling her head gently back. 

"Mami", he whispered.

"Gorgeous!" the photographer called out, interrupting them. "I think we got it!".

Sarah looked at him, giving him a pained smile. She stroked his face, kissing him quickly, before the photographer called them over to see the pictures. She sat in a high chair, Nick on one side of her, the photographer on the other. As they began going through the pictures, Sarah couldn't believe that was them. "Holy shit!" she exclaimed. "That's us?!".

Nick laughed, kissing her temple. "I told you. We're hot". 

They laughed, going through the last of the photos. The photographer stopped on the pic of Sarah biting Nick's lip. Their eyes were locked, sexuality oozing from both of them. "I think this is the one!".

"Wow!" Sarah was amazed that the woman in this photo was actually her. "This is so sexy!"

"That's what I see every time I look at you, Sarah", Nick said, quietly. "This is what everyone but you sees". 

She glanced at him lovingly, tickling his chin with her fingernails. They were interrupted again, this time by the woman conducting the interview. She introduced herself to both Sarah and Nick, before Sarah excused herself to allow her to conduct the interview. 

"I'll get something to eat", she told Nick, standing on her tip toes to kiss his cheek.

"Ok, mami. We'll be done soon". 

She told the interviewer it was nice to meet her, and head off set to find the craft service table. She picked a few items for herself, then made a plate for Nick. She carried them back to set, setting them down, watching Nick. He was so charismatic and adorable. She couldn't help but smile. He caught her eye, smiling back. He motioned for her to join him. She picked up the plates, going to sit in on the interview.

"I'm sorry, I didn't get you anything", she said to the interviewer, "but we can share!". She placed her plate closer to the interviewer. 

"See?", Nick said, laughing and putting an arm around her. "She is the most giving girl. Always willing to help or share. She takes good care of me. I'm a lucky man".

Sarah smiled at him, lovingly. "He's full of it. He's treated me like a queen since the day we met, and hasn't ever stopped".

"So, would you say you're the lucky one?", the interviewer asked.

Sarah looked at Nick thoughtfully. "I don't know if we're lucky. We're what relationships should be. I think it's sad that you're considered lucky if you find someone that loves you and treats you right, and that you love and treat right. I guess I'm lucky because I found the love of my life early? I appreciate him, and I know that he is an amazing guy, but I deserve that. Every girl does". 

He lifted her hand to kiss it. "A woman who knows her worth. Yet another thing I love about her". 

"Well, it's obvious you adore her", the interviewer said. "I wish you both well".

They both thanked her. Nick finished up the interview and said goodbye to the reporter. 

"You did so well, mami" Nick said, picking up the sandwich she had made him. 

"Ugh", she groaned, thinking about what she said about not being lucky. "Did I sound like a bitch? I mean, I'm lucky! But, so are you!".

He laughed. "Oh, I know it! Naw, ma, you sounded like a confident woman. It was sexy".

"You're sexy" she said, stealing a kiss.

"Tell me something I don't know", he joked. They laughed as they finished their food, before packing up and heading home.
