Avoid

Chapter 41

     I was tired we'd made love so many times last night all through the early hours of the morning. I didn't want to get up and leave him but I had my hospital shift. I grabbed a piece of paper out of his sketch book and left him a note.

'You said I'm the sweetest high, but your the naughtiest high. I'm beyond addicted.
I didn't want to leave you this morning. You looked like the naughtiest piece of heaven laid in bed. I kissed you all over as you'll see!
  I miss you something fierce already even though I'm sat here writing this gawking at you! Yep I am gawking and you can't tease me for it because your asleep.
   Last night was amazing, you make me feel on top of the world. Your really something special!
  I can't wait to see that heart stopping smile of yours later. Behave today!
  I hope your dreaming of me...xxx'
P.S. Please don't ever give me up.

I put it next to him on the pillow.
I got ready for work and I hadn't really stopped from setting off, everything had been on the go.
Jane told me to go get some lunch.
So I did I went to the cafeteria and ordered some food. As soon as I sat down I checked my phone.
There was a text from Mateo..
Teo: I loved your little note cheeky stuff! It made me smile. I was gutted when I woke to find you not there but I could smell your sweetness on my pillow. Last night was amazing, it was the best. Your the special one and I'm not sure what your doing to me. I'm glad you like my smile.. does that earn me extra kisses then? ;) I'll defo bare it in mind and use it to my advantage. Can't promise to behave sorry! I did dream of you.. :P

   He'd also sent me a picture of himself looking jaw droppingly hot with the lipstick kisses I'd left all over him with a message underneath saying 'I need more  kisses to fill in the gaps ;)' I giggled ...
A young guy about my age came over to my table. "Is this seat taken?" He asked.
"Um no it's free." I smiled.

   We made small talk.. he seemed like a funny polite guy. He was training to be a doctor. I'd told him which department I worked in, he told me he knew a girl called Steph who worked in my area. I had worked with a her couple of times and she was lovely. I glanced at my phone realising the time, so I stood up to leave...
   "Hopefully see you around again sometime."
   "Yeah I'm sure you will." I smiled politely back at him.

    As soon as I got back things were happening straight away. A lady who had been in labour was now being rushed to have a c-section.
   I had a chat to a woman who couldn't breast feed. I tried to reassure her that she should only do what she's comfortable with, it's not for everyone and she shouldn't feel bad because if she doesn't want to or can't. Everyone is different and we all do what's best and right for us. What works for some people doesn't for others.. that's just life.
   She seemed a lot more relaxed when I left her.
It was time to head home. I needed sleep big time.

    I had to unlock the door when I got in. Everyone appeared to be out.  I went and got a shower.
When I got to my room I noticed Teo's logo T-shirt he must of left in here.
  I smelt it breathing him in... I wanted to smell more it smelt so good. I kept sniffing it deciding I probably looked crackers so I just decided to wear it to bed instead.
   I soon drifted off...

    I woke up a little hot then felt a heavy weight on my stomach. It was Mateo sprawled on me. I stroked his hair.
   "Hmm.. I've missed you today." He mumbled sleepily.
"Ditto gorgeous." I said quietly.
He squeezed me tighter.
"I have to get up soon."
    "Can't you call in sick?" He asked.
  "Noo.. I'm no badass like you!" I smacked his sexy ass.
"Ohh baby, you are!" He started to kiss me gently on my stomach..
"Mmm Teo..." I moaned softly.

   He'd made love to me before I left for work.. he'd tried to convince me to pull a sickie but I wouldn't.
Work went quickly today... I saw the same guy at lunch as yesterday we ate together. I told him I was going to the music fest this weekend as Mateo had managed to get a spare ticket and surprisingly he was going too.
      My feet were killing and I just wanted to sit down. So when I got in to see everyone sat down at the table and sofa chilling out.. I sighed a little.

   "Hey guys!" I said as I walked by to go get a shower.
   Mateo was too busy in a conversation with a tall woman with brown hair. I started stripping off when I got to my bedroom, grabbing some clean underwear and a towel. I got in the shower and put my pyjamas on. I thought I'd make myself a sandwich and drink before I slept, I was beyond tired.
     When I walked in the kitchen I could feel Mateo's eyes on me. A guy I'd never seen before was trying to talk to me.
  "Can you make me one of whatever your making?" The random guy asked.
    "Truthfully, if I'm being honest I don't have the energy to I'm extremely tired. On a normal day I would but just not today sorry." I told him.
   "No worries next time though." He winked.
  I picked up my cup of tea and plate nearly spilling half my drink down me.

"Whoa your gonna burn yourself. Here stink let me."
Mateo took them from me and carried them to my room for me.
"Babe you look tired." He eyed me.
I nodded eating my sandwich slowly.
  "Your feet are red too, come here." He sat down on the bed lifting my feet onto his lap and started massaging them. It still amazed me that he had this sweet side he kept hidden.
"Oooh that's so good Teo.." I moaned.
He smirked at me..
"What?" I looked into his deep blue eyes.
   "Oh nothing just me and my dirty mind wondering when you speak." He grinned.
I smiled cheekily back at him...

    When I'd finished eating I laid down in bed.. he tucked me in and gave me a soft kiss on the temple.
I held my hand out to grab him...
Grabbing his joggers... "Mateo don't you wanna lay with me?"
   He knelt down at the side of my bed "I can't, you know they'll wonder where I am."
After a moment or two I nodded..
"Okay goodnight then Teo."
I turned over not wanting to show him my disappointment.
  "Goodnight Lace." He quietly shut the door behind him.
