The Unexpected Nanny 2

17- Embarrassing moment

Ethan was happy to hear Ilona was willing to give him a chance to talk. He wasn't sure what to say to her yet, other than he knew he needed to apologize. As much as he wanted to let her know why he has been behaving the way he has, he didn't feel it was any of her business to explain what his feelings are with Grace, and being they're not in a committed relationship, he didn't feel it was necessary.

While trying to take his focus off Grace, he wanted to try and give Ilona his full attention. Maybe she is the one for him, maybe she isn't. All he knew was he needed to find out, and figure everything out on his own. He found Ilona quite sexy, and so far, a good person. He liked she could handle his type of humor, his comments, and thought that was a bonus for him since Melissa couldn't handle him being that way. What he knew now was, he needed to find someone that could handle him, and to put him in his place when needed to be.

While Ilona was arranging the flowers in the vase, Sadie came home. She talked to Antonio, and was all for Ethan taking her out. She knew Ilona's situation, and thought it might be good for her to get to know Ethan. She knew what happened between the two of them the other day, and wasn't about to bring it up. "Those are beautiful!" Sadie said to Ilona, as she walked up to her, admiring the flowers.

"They are." Ilona smiled "Although, they came from my least favorite person right now." she sighed, looking over at Ethan.

"I think they're beautiful, and I know they came from a very special person." Sadie smiled, looking at Ethan, and nodding her head for him to acknowledge Ilona.

"Oh, he's special all right." Ilona deadpanned.

Sadie helped Ilona finish arranging the flowers, and looked at her "Just so you know, Antonio and I are giving you the rest of the day off."

She quickly turned her head, and looked at Sadie, worried she did something wrong "Why?"

"Ethan would like to take you out for the day, and we thought it would be a good thing for you. You've been doing a lot around here, and we both know you could use the day off."

"But you gave me the night off the other night?" she said, surprised.

"Yes, we know. But you couldn't go out, and enjoy yourself, now you can." Sadie winked at her, and walked over to Ethan giving him a shove "Go, you two have fun."

Ilona promised she would talk to Ethan, even though she could care less that he wanted to spend the day with her, after what he did the other day. She was still feeling hurt, and used by him. Although, she was somewhat curious to see what he had to say. Sadie gathered the kids, and brought them into the playroom so Ilona, and Ethan could have some alone time.

Ilona looked at Ethan, and wasn't thrilled he got Antonio, and Sadie to give her a day off, just so she could spend time with him. He was the last person she wanted to spend her day off with. "Well you want to talk, so what would you like to do?" Ilona asked, as she sat down at the table, rubbing her thighs, sighing.

"Let's go for a walk, and we'll talk at the same time." he smiled, as he walked over her, and reached his hand out to help her stand. When she stood, he wrapped his arms around her, hugging her "I'm sorry." he whispered, running his fingers down her long brown hair.

"Yep." she whispered, not holding him back.

He grabbed a hold of her hand, and started walking her to the door. "Come on..."

They left, and went out for a walk. She was quiet, and looked down at the ground as they walked. He moved closer to her, and gradually placed his hand into hers. "At least it's nice out." he smiled, giving her a nudge.

She smiled a little, and looked up at him "It is, so are you going to talk to me, and let me know what happened the other day, or are we just going to walk and not talk at all?"
