Nanny

11

Once it was time for Destiny, Liam, and Bear to go back to their London home.

Destiny gives Madison a big hug and says, "Okay, I went into your phone."

Madison's eyes widen and says in a high pitch tone, "What!"

Destiny holds her hands in defense and explains, "I didn't go through your photos or anything like that. I just put my number in your contacts." She rests her hands on top of Madison's shoulders and states with warmth in her voice, "You are my first American friend."

Madison smiles softly and hugs Destiny as she replies, "And you're my first British friend."

Liam gives Louis a bro hug, and Louis says sternly, "You better tell Destiny how you feel about her, or I'm flying back to London just to kick your fucking arse."

Liam chuckles warmly and shakes his head while he says, "You don't have to worry about that. I'm telling her when we get back home from the flight."

Louis nods his head and says, "Good. By the time you come visit me again you better be calling Destiny your girlfriend and not the nanny."

Liam glances at Destiny who is at the moment hugging Madison and talking with her while he smiles warmly and says, "I am definitely getting back into the dating game with Destiny. And you're right. Destiny truly makes me happier than I have since Sophia's passing."

Louis scoffs and rolls his eyes, "When I haven't been right?"

"I can write you a big book on everything that you were wrong about."

Louis shakes his head and rolls his eyes as he rests his hands on his mate's shoulders, becoming serious for the moment, "Liam, go after your second chance for love."

"I will, Louis."

Liam takes Destiny's free hand and waves goodbye to his friend and his maid before they leave the penthouse together following the employees who are taking their bags to their taxi.

Destiny looks up at Liam and asks, "Was last night a mistake to you, Mr. Payne?"

Liam locks eyes with Destiny and bites his lip gently before he shakes his head and whispers, "No. I actually thought last night was marvelous."

He sees her sweet and warm green eyes sparkle with excitement, "Really, Mr. Payne?"

He lets go of her hand and gently tucks a strand of her hair behind her ear, "Yes, Destiny."

"You never called me by my first name, Mr. Payne."

He smiles warmly and scratches the back of his neck while he explains, "Since we had sex last night, I think we should be on a first name based."

She nods her head and replies, "I guess you're right, Liam."

Somehow when she says his first name, it sends shivers down his spine as a soft and warm smile appears on his face. He opens the door and takes Bear who is his car seat as he straps in the car seat properly and kisses the top of Bear's head before letting Destiny climb into the back seat first and closing the door behind her. He goes to the other side of taxi and sits on the left side of his curious son.

Destiny places the pig finger puppet on her index finger and oinks like an actual pig, entertaining Bear who is laughing and squealing in excitement and joy.

When the three of them made it back home, Liam text his mother to see if she could babysit Bear so he could take Destiny on a romantic picnic during the evening. He has the picnic set thanks to his secretary.

He smiles brightly when his mum replies that she would absolutely loves to babysit her grandson.

He glances at Destiny who is playing peekaboo with Bear as he clears his throat to get her attention which he did and says, "You should get ready right now."
