Nanny Affair

Chapter Nineteen

LISA COLMAN

Hearing his voice made butterflies swarm in my stomach. I smile settling on my bed. We have been on the phone for almost an hour having small talk. I wanna ask if he's already had the talk with his parents but am scared. What if they already declined and he doesn't wanna tell me? What if he's lost everything because of me? I feel my heart being pierced again and tears welling up in my eyes. Why am I even crying

"Lisa are you still there?" he asks taking me out of my thought. I wipe the tears away with the back of my hand and smile nodding as if he's right next to me

"Yes," I say quickly almost laughing at myself after realizing what I had just done

"What's the matter?" he asks sounding concerned. I stay silent thinking of something to tell him

"I just miss you," It's not a lie. I miss him so much, he's only been gone for hours but that's not what's eating me up

"You miss me that much that you sound like you're crying?" He asks laughing and I laugh as well. That is so foolish

"I do miss you, I have told you that like ten times now and it seems like you don't believe me," I say faking anger

"Of course I do but you seemed so excited to go back to your friend I almost felt like you really wanted me gone," I know that he's pouting right now and I laugh when the image of him pouting comes to mind. That's because I didn't want you to see that I was bothered by what is going to happen there

"Of course I was excited, I haven't seen her for months all we do is talk through the phone but that doesn't mean I wanted you gone," I say brushing the thought away
"How's Ella?"

I ask not wanting to dive much into the topic. She's with her grandmother out in the fields," he says. I hear shuffling in the background and then a ladies voice

"Who's that on the phone?" The voice asks as it got closer

"Just someone special to me," Logan says and I smile like a four year old. What is wrong with me? And who is that woman?

"Is that her?" the voice asks and I bet Logan nodded because after a while I heard a muffled scream and then Logan's laughter

"Lisa I'll call you later okay, I miss you," he says hanging up before I can say anything. Who is that woman? Does she know about me? It sounded like she did. It cant be Colette, there's no way she's there but what do I know. I try to push the stupid insecurities away but to no use. I need a distraction from all this. I look out the window and the sun is already setting

I walk out of my room only to find Belle and Robin cuddled up watching a different movie. It looked like some type of horror. I cleared my throat and they looked back at me, Belle sitting up a wicked smile on her face

"Done talking with your man?" she asks and again I feel my cheeks burn. I roll my eyes and walks towards the kitchen

"Maybe I should have just stayed back there and wait for them to come back," I say wanting to get on Belle's nerves

"Oh really," she says standing up and walking slowly towards her hands to her chest and a serious expression on her face

"You guys wanna get out of here, we can have dinner outside and then get some drinks till late," I say trying to change the subject

"That's a good idea, it's boring staying in doors for all this while," Robin adds and I smile cheekily towards Belle who now defeated

"That's great, we can just talk about it as we drink. You talk a lot when you're tipsy," she says returning my smile with her wicked one

We had decided to have dinner at a small restaurant and then head for Steps. It's well known around here and it's really good. I was planning on getting wasted because I know Robin is gonna drive us back. She's always the one doing this because she doesn't drink much meanwhile me and her girlfriend drink like the world is ending

I look at Belle's excited face her arm locked with mine as she walks us, Robin behind us as if guiding us from something. Sometimes she just does it because she has scary expression and am sure she enjoys seeing some men move out of her way

"There's an open booth, I'll go get the drinks," I say releasing myself from Belle's arm and heading to the counter. I didn't need to ask what they were gonna drink coz I basically knew maybe if Robin had changed her taste in alcohol which am sure she didn't, she's really choosy

"A bottle of tequila and two of stout please," I say to the blonde bartender with no shirt on. I liked this place because I got to see this kinds of men but now that I have Logan I don't see the fun of sitting and watching half naked men walking around with trays of beers in their hands

"And glasses," I am really planning on getting drunk. The bartender nods and turns to get my order and I sit on the counter chairs waiting

"Hey," a deep voice says behind me. I turn to see a pair of blue eyes looking at me. The man smiles and sits beside me a smile on his face. He reminds me of someone. He has blonde hair that has some of it's parts dyed with a dark brown. It looks really good, his blue eyes are mesmerizing and his face looks like it was sculpted by the gods themselves

"Hi," I say smiling looking away from him. I can feel his breath on me and he must have taken a few shots

"I saw you walk in with some of your friends and I really wanted to get to know you," he says. Straight to the point are we? I smile and turn to him, preparing to reject him but then the feeling of things not going right takes over

Maybe am not supposed to be with Logan. I love him, I know that but what if he's just not the one. What if he truly belongs to Colette and am just but a home wrecker? I did already ruin their relationship and giving him my number doesn't mean anything

"I dont even know your name," I say

"Pardon my manners, Hi am Jake," he says so casually the smile not leaving his face. He stretches his hand for me to shake. I didn't know men out here still had manners

"Am Lisa," I say shaking it but before I can pull away, his grip tightens and he moves my hand to his mouth and kisses the back of my hand. I smile at the gesture feeling like a princess and then pull away

"It's a nice name," he says and I can feel his eyes bore holes on me. I look at him and smile taking the compliment or whatever we can call that

"Maybe we can hang out before you leave," he says finally after the short silence between us. I nod taking the bottles and glasses I had ordered after paying and balancing them on my small hand towards our booth

"Took you long enough," Robin comments as I place the bottles on the table

"Oh yeah, shots.. shots.. shots. And she was talking to some cute guy at the counter," Belle says opening the bottle of Tequila and pouring it in the small glasses

"Cheers to a great night," She says and we raises our contents clicking them together and downing them. I feel like it's gonna be a great night, maybe something might happen. Whatever it is, am ready for it

I take another shot and laugh my thoughts out....
