Part 18

        That night, Nathan stayed at your place. The two of you played with Maggie and took her for a short walk. You tried teaching her some tricks. So far, she only knows one, sit.  She would run around the house and slide on the wooden floor when she tried to stop. You and Nath just laughed.

      In the living room, you sat with your back against the couch. Nathan sat beside you and put his arm around you. Maggie came and lay on your lap. You watched some tv before you became tired.

     "Why don't we go to bed?" Nath asks, seeing how tired  you are.

    "Okay." You say as you stand up and stretch. Maggie ran past you and up the steps. Nath laughs.

     You change in your room while Nathan changes in the bathroom. You brush your teeth and get into bed. He got in next to you and rested his head on his hand. He just stared into your eyes and  you stared into his.

     "I love your eyes." He says. You laugh.

     "Thanks." You say.

      He just smiles.

     "Why?" You ask.

     "Why what?"

     "Why do you like me?"

     "Love." He corrected.

    "Love." You repeated.

     "Because you're funny, smart, beautiful, kind, caring, and an amazing person. Not to mention you're mine." He grinned. You laughed.

     There was a whine at the side of the bed. You picked up Maggie and put her between you and Nathan. "Why do you like me? Because I'm famous?" Nath asks and looks away.

    "No. Because you're nice, funny, a great singer, caring, loving, protective over me, and really hot." You say and laugh at the last part. But, it was true.

    He laughed too and looked back at you. "What will happen when you go on tour for a long time or go back home?" You ask.

    He didn't answer. "I know a way." He says.

        "What?" You ask.

       "You and Maggie could live with me."

        "Really?" You ask.

       "Really."

       "Are you sure?" You ask, not wanting to make him do something he doesn't want to.

      "Yeah. One hundred percent." He smiles and you smile back.

      "Okay." You say.

        "Now get some sleep." He says and kisses the top of your head. You snuggle closer and lay your head on his chest. He puts his chin on top of your head and holds you close.

        In the morning you called your mom and told you that you were going to move in with Nathan. She was a little sad but understood. She was happy that you finally found someone who would love you and take care of you like she had for so many years before.

       "When are you leaving for home?" You ask Nathan after you hang up with your mom.

       "About next week. Better start packing." He says and grins. You laugh.

       You and Nath took Maggie to the park for a walk. when you get back you make some breakfast for the two of you and feed Maggie. Nathan goes upstairs to take a shower and leaves his phone on the table. While he was in the bathroom, it went off. You look at it and it's Siva calling.

     "Hello?" You answer,

      "Y/N? Where's the boy?" Seev asks.

      "Shower." You say.

      "Can you have him call me later? It's important."

     "Yeah, sure. But what is it?"

      "Just something I need to ask him about his future."

      "Okay." You say, wondering what that could mean.

       You guys say goodbye and hang up. A little while later, Nathan comes down the stairs and into the kitchen.

     "Hey." He says as he kisses your cheek.

    "Hey. Siva called. He said he had to ask you something and for you to call him. He said something about it having to do with your future." You say.

     "Oh. Oh!" He says, apparently knowing what it is he has to be asked. He takes his phone and goes into another room to call Seev back.

     "Hey, Maggie! Hi girl!" You say as Maggie comes into the room. She wags her tail excitedly and you bend down to pick her up. You pet her and kiss her on the top of the head and then lets her down. "Let's go play!" You say as you run into the living room to get her toy with Maggie right behind you.

     Five minutes later when the puppy wouldn't give back the toy, Nath came back in.

    "Everything all right?" You ask.

   "Yeah! Everything's perfect." He says happily.

   "That's good." You say and laugh. "What was the question about?" He just looks at you, not answering, and smiles.
