Married to the Heartless Billionaire

25: Our Stories

His hand wrapped around my hand as I took it eagerly. His hand squeezed mine as I saw the look of excitement in his eyes.  As we walked out of the driveway I could see a glimmer of light, shining on where we're walking. His smile glimmered as I studied his eyes, as he checked to make sure everything was their, I could tell he wanted this to be perfect.

The glimmer of light, was a beautiful car, and trust me I knew my cars. I may have not known how to walk in heels but I definitely know how to drive stick.

He heard my slight gasp, at the model and pristine of the car, as he chuckled at my reaction. I was a surprising girl, definitely one that wooed minds, including my own.

"How did you afford this car, this must cost you millions, to keep in this good of a condition",I examined the wheels and the paint job done on the right. He opened the door waiting for me to climb in, but I just couldn't help but glare at the interior of the car.

"I'm surprised you know this car", he responded, as he climbed in the opposite side, in this very low car. His hands adjusted onto the belt as he, locked himself into this mess of a situation.

" I worked as a mechanic for a car mechanics store, I learned a couple of things. Surprised, is it because i'm a girl, cause then we're gonna have some problems...", I spoke strongly, I was very against sexism and didn't like to have traditional jobs, I liked the crazy unexpected parts of lives.

"No, No, I was just saying that your father let you take that, I mean didn't he want you to specialize in business to take over his.", His words frustrated me, but his words and actions explained that he was confused, we may have been brought up in a similar rich household, but our stories were very much different.

"I don't know what he wanted", I said the only true thing I knew about my father, I didn't know his intentions or his reasons from all the pain he put me through. After that it was silence afterwards, I caught him slightly glancing at me, every now and then. His hands were tensed up and I could tell he was nervous.

"Natalie, we're here", I felt hands wrapped around me, as I looked above and saw a chiseled face, with baby blue eyes looking back at me. He let me on my own feet, as I saw the helicopter, on top of a rooftop.

"Uh, what what are we doing here", I hesitated, my fear of heights from a treehouse may have been defeated but not from the fucking sky.

"Close your eyes". his voice whispered as he carried me inside, as I felt the air temperature change suddenly. He sat me down next to him as he gave me a pair of headphones.

"You know I don't like heights, I don't think I can watch", I bent down keeping my eye-line away from the sky, only being lit by stars and the city lights below.

"I know, but I want you to overcome all of your fears with me, I want you to remember that your fearless, and strong", he spoke into the headphone as I heard it from the line. I lifted my head softly as his hand connected with mine and I squeezed his hand tight.

"Thank you", I whispered as he cleared the takeoff and I felt the bottom of me begin to shake, Nolan kept looking at me as If I was a fragile item, that could crack into a million different pieces.

The ground underneath me began to wobble, as I felt myself almost get air sick, until I saw the beautiful lights shining against the city horizon. The lights shined so bright, and the buildings looked magnificent.

"It's It's so Beautiful", I stuttered as Nolan smiled his charming smile, over and over again until I noticed and smiled back. He seemed proud of wherever he was taking ms, he seemed like there was a backside to this place as we went out of the city of
Seattle.

As we went out of the city, I could see the forest of trees under us, as the helicopter got lower. Nolan looked at his surroundings and gave a great big smile, he was truly happy about the area he was in, maybe he secretly hated the city and loved the nature.

"Here's my home", he said as if we had been introduced to each other the first time, and there in the middle of all the wilderness, was a large cabin in the middle of nowhere,

"How many homes do you have", I asked as we circled the helipad and got lower and lower near the rooftop.

"Just hang on", he yelled as I held onto his arm, which probably wasn't what he meant. I held on tight, which probably left indent marked from my nails, which weren't that long but still they could do damage if need be.

He finally shut off the helicopter as he hopped out and ran to the other door, to check up on me. He took my hand as I realized we were on the top of a rooftop again, what was this. I searched for the nearest exit, and ran straight towards it, luckily there were stairs that ended up on this floor. I went down and opened the singular door as I heard heavy treading footsteps behind me.

"The rooftops, too much sorry", I apologized as he took my hand and put my freezing cold hand against his warm cheek. His other hand explored my baby hairs as he tucked them behind my earlobe.

"No i'm sorry", he apologized as I smiled at his little gesture.
