Chapter 9
Nick woke up as the sun hit his face through the yellow sheers on the large window. He looked down into his arms and there she was, sleeping peacefully with her arms wrapped around him as her head rested on his bare chest. The sheet was around their waists, exposing the upper parts of their naked bodies. As he laid there next to her, he thought of the night before and how it seemed like a dream. It was the most amazing night he could ever imagined and he felt things he had never felt before. His mind was reeling, hoping that daylight would not change things. As he thought, Gwen began to stir. She looked up at him and smiled lazily. He wiped the sleep out of her eyes with his finger and said, "Good morning."
It felt so good to wake up in Nick's arms, "Good Morning to you."
I reached up to kiss him. While we were on the verge of reliving last night, his cell phone rang. He apologized as he pulled himself from my arms and jumped out of the bed, looking for his pants. He was so cute running around naked. He found the phone and answered it, "Hello..."
He just stood there talking to what sounded like one of the guys, I looked up at him and he smiled as my eyes traveled up and down his bare body. It took him a few minutes to realize that he was standing there completely naked and he laughed a little and blushed as he wrapped up his conversation, "OK, I will be there, see ya."
He walked back over to my bed, set his phone down on the night stand and turned to be as he sat down next to me, "I have to be at rehearsal in an hour."
I gave him a pouty look and said, "You do?"
"Yeah, sound check for the show tonight. Believe me, I don't want to go but..."
"I understand," I cut him off, "Its your job."
"Would you like to come with me," Nick asked, with fear in his mind if he left her for a moment it would change everything between them.
"I shouldn't, I am just going to stay here and be a bum."
"Well, are you going to come to the show tonight? I would love for you to be there...and then, there will be no more interuptions for the rest of the weekend."
"I would love to come and watch you sing tonight and I am definately ready to have you all to myself for the weekend," I said as I pulled him down towards me.
"You know you are making it impossible for me to leave."
"Go! I will be there tonight."
He leaned down and kissed me. He then began to gather his clothes and put them on. I was just watching him, it was obvious that he was taking his time. When he was finished, he came back over to me, as I still lie there naked on the white sheets, bent down and kissed me softly, I just looked up at him and smiled.
"Bye Doll," Nick said, "I will call you this afternoon and tell you what to do about tonight."
"OK Darlin', have a good day."
I turned and looked at me one last time before turning to walk out. As I heard the door close gently I sighed. I rolled over and went back to sleep, dreaming of the man who had stolen my heart.
