Heaven Isn't Too Far Away After All.

Chapter 21 | Working things out

Waverly's point of view-

Wynonna and I have spent quite a lot of time together these past couple days since Nicole isn't in town. Wynonna says I should forgive her, I guess she's partly right. I just can't stop thinking about what would happen if Nicole and I were to ever get really serious? How are we supposed to have family get togethers? Or take family photos? It's just, I wanted so badly for Nicole's mom to love me, because I love her daughter. Nicole's face, and I'm almost certain her heart broke when I asked her where this whole thing left us. Telling everyone that I was dating Nicole was nerve racking but I did it, I did it because I was so crazy over her I didn't care what anyone else thought. Not all us are that lucky to have our families support us, I didn't understand that before.

"Hello? Can I get another drink or not?" An annoyed voice says.

I snap my head up at the bar and a customer is sat on the other side.

"Yes sorry about that." I get the customer another drink and hand it to them with a smile on my face, they continue frowning at me in return.

While wiping down the bar Sheriff Nedley walks in and makes his way to me.

"Your usual Nedley?"

"Sadly I don't have the time for a drink today. Was gonna ask if you could stop by Nicole's today and feed her cat, I'm afraid I'm going to be out late on a case."

"Oh yeah of course. She really appreciates you doing that for her by the way."

Nedley hands me Nicole's house key. "Anything to help a deputy out. That cat of hers has really started to grow on me, don't tell her I said that." He tips his hat to me and leaves the bar.

I wonder if Nicole would mind if I just stayed the night at her house, probably not. She's texted me a few times since she left, even though I've mostly forgiven her I don't feel like letting her know that yet.

Getting in my Jeep after my shift is over I head to Nicole's, I get a little lost on the way but I eventually make it.

Walking up to the house I spot Charles in the window, I hope he'll come up to me without Nicole here. Turning the key I open the door, being greeted by Charles. "You sure are a cute cat. I bet you miss your momma, I know I sure miss her." Looking around the small kitchen I eye a familiar picture on Nicole's fridge, it's the picture I took of Nicole and I at her grandmothers. Looking around further I find a note Nicole left Nedley.

Thank you sir for watching Charles for me. He eats a can of wet cat food a day and he won't eat it unless it's heated up first. Feel free to hang around the house for as long as you'd like, I know Charles would appreciate it.

Putting the note back where it was my phone vibrates.

Message from "Sweetie Pie"
I told my mom everything. You are that important to me Waverly.

I smile down at my phone and start typing a reply back, she's suffered long enough.

Just come home so you can tell me what happened.

She replies almost instantly.

In that case, I'm headed home now. Xo

My heart smiled for the first time this week

Charles rubbed against my leg. "You're probably hungry aren't you?"

Scooping a can of wet cat food out into a bowl I placed it in the microwave, taking it out after thirty seconds. I placed it down on the floor and made my way to Nicole's bedroom.

I ran and jumped onto Nicole's bed, burying my face in the pillows and smiling when I smelt Nicole all over them. She should be home in three hours and I'm craving her more than ever. I glance in the mirror in the bathroom, that's not gonna fly.

I turn the shower on before stripping of clothing. When I'm about to step in I hear meowing and laugh when I see Charles sitting on the counter watching me. Odd cat. Now I know why Nicole smells so good, her body wash smells like it was crafted by mystical unicorns. Before I get out I managed to shave my legs, she'll appreciate that.

After rubbing some lotion into my skin I look for something to wear, something some what sexy.

After searching for what felt like hours, but was really only thirty minutes I find a short, silk, white robe. I do a mental fist pump to the air, with this robe and my pink, lace bra and panties Nicole will be drooling.

It wouldn't hurt to start a fire, if I can manage to not burn myself this time.

After the fire gets going I text Wynonna so she won't worry.

Hey sis, I'm staying at Nicole's tonight so we can work things out. Love ya.

I would tell Nicole that I'm here, but I want to surprise her and I know she'll come here first to check on Charles.

Wynonna replies a few minutes later.

Alright have a fun time "working" everything out. ;)

Before I can giggle to myself, I hear a car door and my stomach churns. She's home.

I hope this chapter wasn't totally boring. The next chapter is going to contain a lot more heat, if ya know what I mean. I mean the best sex is makeup sex right?
