Nick and I were basically inseparable a week after the party.He moved back in and we were sleeping in the same bed again.Making me think that this was it. The only thing left was for him to fully remember.When I walked into our workroom, I was shocked to see Nick sitting around his area with pencil in hand and nodding to the music being played.I went up behind him, throwing my arms around his neck."Hey there." I kissed his shoulder.He held onto my arms. ’’Hey.’’"What are you doing?""I thought that maybe coming in here would bring back some sort of memory, but I still don't understand a thing drawn on any of these papers.""It's fine. You don't need to rush yourself.""But that's the thing. I feel like I do. I what to remember so badly, because I hate that sad look on your face. I know you try to hide it, but it hurts me to know that you are feeling this way."I kissed his neck."Just don't push too much and if it makes you feel any better, I don’t understand anything on those
"Hey, Christenna wants us to go clubbing with her tomorrow." Nick said, while we cleaned the kitchen after everyone left. "I see your sister loves to party." "She does, and it worries me." "I mean, as long as she is with her brother and fiance, I'm sure it's ok." "No, when she gets drunk, she gets out of control." "The crazy drunk, then?" "Yes, the party is at the P3. But I'll have to meet you there because my father wants to go boating in the morning.” Nick made known. "Ok, enjoy." “Try not to miss me too much." I rolled my eyes. "It's only for a couple of hours." Nick gave me a quick kiss. “Make sure to wear something sexy. I'll be the most handsome male in the club." Nick kissed me again. "I'll see you tomorrow." I told him. "You sure will." Nick left before I could ask him who else would be there, because really, I don't want to be in the same room with Alba or Michael, no matter how big it is. To occupy my time to calm my anxiety by working the entire night, it als
I didn’t know how it happened, but it happened so fast where a man rushed up to where we were and in his drunken party state, he bumped into me and Nick, causing our drinks to go tumbling to the ground.He began apologising until his eyes roamed over my body. And that was where Nick pushed him away.I stood there, still stunned, until Nick touched my arm.’’Are you ok?’’I nodded.’’I’m going to get us more drinks. Why don’t you go sit with Christenna?’’’’Can I get a drink as well? I need something strong after that mess.’’ Alba implored, as if the minor incident involved her.I moved away to go sit with Christenna, who was chatting up a storm with another female.Nick came back to where we were now sitting. He placed my drink down, then did the same with Alba's before sitting beside me.Nick placed a hand on the back of the red leather sofa so that his hand was brushing against my shoulder. I leant into him and he kissed the side of my head.He then turned sideways to me, while his
I slouch over the steering wheel after we finished another round of sex, Nick kissed my shoulder then my neck, sending my shivers over my body.After a while, Nick moved to the other seat so he could fix himself.’’Are you sure no one saw us? I’m sure the car was rocking.’’ Nick said, while checking the mirrors.’’I’m sure they would be cheering us on if anyone took noticed. Unless a creep stuck his nose to the windows to get a private viewing.’’’’I’m just saying we could get fine for that.’’I snorted a laugh. ’’Dude, the shy guy act doesn’t suit you.’’’’It’s not me being shy, my darling, it’s me being cautious.’’"I'm so hungry." I complained after my stomach grumbled.’’I can hear that.’’I glanced at Nick, thinking if he wasn’t supposed to be the one to drive. But I guess he fucked me senseless that I didn’t realize I was around the steering wheel."Me too. We can stop somewhere to grab a bite." I take a quick glance at him again. "Its two am.""So?""So? So places are closed."
"These shoes are killing me," I said, kicking them off the minute I got home.One accidentally hit the table to the side, leaving a small dent on it."Well shit," I giggled.There was a soft chuckle from behind me.I struggled to pull my zipper down while Nick closed the door.I turned to look at him because he was too silent for my liking. The moment I did, he crashed his lips onto mine, knocking the air out of my lungs and sending heat all over my body."Round three?" I asked.He never responded, just bit my lower lip, begging for access. I allowed that request so our tongues could dance and fight for dominance in each other's mouth.I pulled away to see the urgency, hunger and need burning in his eyes. He slowly unbuttoned his shirt in a teasingly seductive way. My eyes followed his fingers as he gazed at me with a smirk.Nick reached over to brush a finger across my cheek, then let my hair out of its ponytail. He took a step back, admiring me while licking his lips.As we kissed a
"Do you have any call cards to read from? Or maybe you make powerPoint presentations about the houses for the potential owner."I laughed."No Nick, I usually do my research on the area the house is located. I also come to check out the house beforehand, make a mental note about any special features that I am sure would grab their interest. Then give the tour.""I'm guessing you never had a person say no to you."I shook my head."I have had plenty of nos and much worse things than that.""What can be worse than a no?"“An old lady crying to a husband because the house never offered an outdoor garden like their old rental place. They just left without a word, but it was all on them for not stating exactly what they were looking for. There was also this couple that wasted my time and pretended as if they wanted to look at houses, but really they were looking for a place to fuck.""Oh, wow. So they were just horny, that is disrespectful.""I got my revenge by sending them to another rea
It surprised me when Nick didn't answer her, instead he leant closer to me, which caused Alba to roll her eyes.“Where are the waiters? I’m starving.’’ She queried to not feel so bad about not getting a response."So, what brings you two to this part of town?" His father asked, flashing me with a look."Oh, I accompany Reign to work in hopes of jogging my memory." Nick began."How did that go?" Alba inquired.The way she asked it was as if she expected him to say the worst things about his experience."It went better than I thought, you should see Reign in her element. She can sell any house with her charming attitude. They all love her." He bragged."Is that so?" His mother leant forward to rest her chin on the back of her hands.“Yes mother, she sold three houses just like that." Nick snapped his fingers."Don't give me all the credit. I mean, you offered more than just a helping hand today. Besides, you were the one to sell the first house. I'm sure if you weren't there that couple
I got a call early the next morning from a very antsy Christenna, begging me to come to her dress fitting."A dress fitting?" I asked, trying to stifle a yawn, but failed."Yes, I really need your help. Please, please, please. Pretty please, and bring Nick along with you.""Ok, where will you be?"’’Thank you, thank you. I owe you big time.’’After I end the call, Nick pulled me into his arms.’’My sister?’’’’Yes, she is having her dress fitting today. I thought she already had a dress with the wedding coming up soon.’’Nick only rested his chin on the top of my head.’’Where will she be?’’ He inquired after a while.I smiled, because gladly, the address and name she gave me was at my store, so I didn't have to lug around with my bags.’’Royal dresses.’’ I told Nick.’’Why are you all smiles?’’’’That’s my place.’’’’Does my sister know that?’’’’Not unless someone told her.’’’’She, nor them, will hear nothing from me about that.’’ Nick assured me.I poked Nick in the arm."Morning
Just as I twisted my curly hair in the clip, Nessa's phone alarmed."Two minutes, then it is your time to walk down the aisle again." Nessa said.She came to hold me at arm's length, then hugged me."Feels like there is something between us," I joked."There is." She patted her four months stomach."Give them hell." I stoop down so I speak to her stomach."He already is, all the morning sickness. Mood swings and always sleeping. I miss eating bacon." Nessa began to cry.I allowed her the moment because I knew that it was just the hormones.Soon she was smiling at me again."Finish getting ready. I'll go call Lorain," she told me.I slipped into my white heals, then knotted my diamond studded tiara in my hair."Looking lovely," Lorain said, coming into the room. Complementing my simple mermaid dress.She picked up my flowers and hand it to me."Ready to give you away, Mrs Carter." She smiled.We walked down the aisle.When I didn't hear any crying, I looked at my left to see Mia and El
Due to some setbacks, Nick and I weren't able to move into our new house until I was almost due.And even though we were moving in, he didn't want me to lift a hand. So, I used my finger to instruct them on where the movers and our friends should put what."No, that glass table belongs in the living room. It goes in the middle. Does anyone not have vision?"I sighed, then sat on the sofa that was facing the fireplace that was below the TV."So we don't place the sofas in a straight line?" Jackson asked."No, this one faces the fireplace. While the other two face each other."Seeing that no one was placing the vases on the shelves that were on either side of the fireplace, I got up and made my way over to the boxes.I struggled to bend forward, while trying to bend sideways didn't work either.I puffed up my cheeks, trying to think of a way to get what was inside the boxes. I knew that if I should stoop down, I might not be able to get back up."What do you think you are doing?" I span
Nick came home early from work. He and his team were already halfway through with building our home."Hey you." He came over to kiss my forehead. "How are my girls?" He then kissed my stomach."Where is everybody?""Out back." I pointed with a chicken tender.I then dipped it in the honey-barbecue sauce that was sitting on my six months belly.Even though my baby shower was set to start in less than three hours, I was sitting in the living room eating junk food and pickles while using my stomach as a table because no one wanted me to do anything.They all were treating me as if I had suddenly become disabled.Shortly after, Nick came back with Jackson stirring him by the shoulders."You two just sit tight while we do all the work." He told Nick.I laughed at the look on my husband's face."Maybe massage her feet. I'm sure they are swollen." Jackson picked up a random bottle and threw it at Nick.Even though it was lubricant, it was for a different reason.With a cheeky smile, I placed
"Can I just take the blind food off? This is giving me anxiety." I asked."Not yet, just ten more minutes and I'll show you."I could feel the car coming to a stop, Nick getting out, then him coming around my side of the car."Ok, just trust me." He said, taking my hand.Instead of making me walk, Nick allowed me to climb on his back. After walking for a while, he stopped and place me on my feet."Ok, you can take the blindfold off."When I did, I noticed we were standing in a big open land."This is where our house will be." Nick grinned.I did a three sixty spin, to get a full view."So, it is a little bigger than I thought. The owner doesn't want it anymore and is willing to take any money from it, as long as I build a home. What do you think?""Have you done a survey to see what was wrong?""Nothing is wrong, just that there is a cliff at the back. But it is perfect otherwise.""And he is willing to take anything for it?""I mean, he is my uncle. So, yes.""I was also thinking tha
"I can't believe I'm doing this." Nessa said as Enzo applied her makeup."Look up,'' Enzo instructed."I hope you are not planning to run.""No, I can now say that I love him and if I should ever do that, I'm sure Rickie would cry.""Please smack your lips together?"After her makeup was set, I helped to zip her up into her mint-green and white dress, which I made exclusively for her.With its sweetheart neckline, and long flowing sheer skirting. I have to say that the dress represented her well."Time for the final touch."I stuck the flower crown in her hair, then let my hand rest on her shoulders."You look so beautiful," I told her.Nessa blinked back tears."Don't make me cry. You know I won't be able to stop." She tried to laugh.I gave her a hug, making sure to not smudge her makeup."I just wish daddy was here to see this.""Oh Nessa. I'm sure that he is smiling down at his baby girl."She dabbed at her eyes."I know, thank you Reign. I couldn't have asked for a better friend.
I was glad when the Dr Lynch said Nick could go home, but what made me even happier was that he remembered, he truly remembered.I couldn't help my smile as we left the hospital.I noticed Nick putting on his seat belt without me telling him to."I will never not wear this again," he said.I reached over to kiss him."You better, or else I will kill you myself."Nick gave a nervous chuckle. "I believe you."Before I could drive away, I saw Alba coming out of the hospital."What are you going to do about them?""I won't say anything to my sister, that's for sure. I don't see the reason for breaking up what she and Johnathan have because, from what Alba said, the two of them slept together before he and Christenna were together. As for my mother. Well, she just reminds me of why I left home, it had aways been her. And now she has no one because of her ways."I held his hand."Just know that no matter what happens, I will always be here for you."''I know, thank you."When we got home, t
By sometime after midnight, I got a call from the hospital, but all I could do was think about all the worst things, because I knew you only get bad news at this time.I took up the bag I had prepared for Nick, and as I drove to the hospital, I held my breath.I wasn't counting on him remembering who I was, even though the nurse on the phone assured me that everything was fine. But that was what they told me the first time, that he was ok when he wasn't.When I got to the hospital, I sat in the car for a while. My hands were shaking, and it felt as if I would pass out myself.I eventually built up the courage to go inside. I had to take deep breaths to carry on."Hi, I'm here to see Nicholas Carter.'' I said to the male at the reception."And you are?""His wife, Royal-Reign Belmont-Carter." I rushed.His eyes widen. "No freaking way. My fiancé is obsessed with your designs. I'm here putting in the extra hours so I can afford the dress she wants.""Oh, hmm. Congrats.""Yeah, your husb
Christenna took her husband's hand in her. "Well, Johnny. Looks like you will never be coming back here when our honeymoon is over. I wouldn't want my mother to try and kill you or get me pregnant in my sleep."They both get up, but neither made a move to leave.Michael was on his phone making calls."You will be hearing from my lawyer Gloria-Lyn, and so will you Alba." Mr Carter got up to walk out of the dining room.Nick stopped him. "Dad, even though I have no memory of that day, I want to apologise for holding a grudge against you."Mr Carter pulled him into a hug."Son, I have no hate for you. I never understood why you left so suddenly until I was fed lies by your mother. She told me you left because you went to Africa." Mr Carter then laughed. "I was just a gullible fool for believing her, not knowing she used my name."Micheal turned hateful eyes to his mother. “That's all you do. Tell lies. I went to see Sabrina after she had my son. When I asked you who the child really belo
"Oh, for the love of God," Michael said, then got up from the table.Alba huffed, but didn't fully enter the dining room."Did you request my presence?" She asked."Yes, that lie you told on me. I wish for you to clear my name," Mr Carter said, cutting into his pancake."Oh, that. See, I was drunk and my mouth just said what my drunken brain told it to.""A drunk mind always reveals a sober mind," I piped up. "And you wishing for Nick's death and our divorce clearly isn't something you came up with on the spot.""I was about to say the same thing. At first, mother was fine with what you had to say until the end of your statement. If I didn't know any better, that push was meant to either kill you or knock you out." Christenna said. "My reception was a shit show because of you." She added.Alba touched her forehead where a welt was. "Take it up with your mother.""This has much to do with you as it does with me," Mrs Carter said.Mr Carter hit his hand on the table. "Enough of the back
