Steph & Andy- True Love
Part One
Steph was rushed off her feet as the lunch hour began as she hardly noticed Andy nervously enter the bistro,
"Oh hey are you alright?" Steph asks before kissing him,
"Kind of just bit fed up" Steph wraps her arms around his shoulders,
"Is not the job searching?"
"Yeah there is nothing Steph. I just feel so useless"
"Hey you are anything but useless!" Steph tightens her grip as Andy kisses her head,
"Steph! Come on table five are ready to order!" Nick says impatiently as Steph sighs rolling her eyes,
"Sorry will be back in a second babe" she hurries over to table five and takes the order as she does this Andy smiles sadly over at her admiring how beautiful her smile was and how infectious her laugh was. Oh how he wished he could get himself sorted out and be the guy that Steph deserved! Nick glares coldly over at Andy making him shiver slightly,
"Look Nick..."
"I can't stop you coming in here but don't distract Steph while she's working!"
"I won't Nick I swear I know how busy it gets"
"Yes especially one man down"
"Maybe I could help out for free of course!" Nick shakes his head and heads into his office,
"Babe?" Steph says Andy noticing her worried look which seems to appear regularly,
"I better get off Steph. Shall we grab some chips tonight?" Andy asks trying to sound casual which didn't fool his girlfriend as Steph frowns her arms folded,
"Has Nick said something to upset you?"
"No he just reminded me how busy it is that's all look I better get out the way as I've got you in enough trouble!" Before Steph could react Andy was gone leaving Steph feeling a mixture of sadness and annoyance.
It was finally the end of a extremely long shift as Steph made her way out of the bistro smiling as she noticed Andy in the distance waiting for her,
"Alright sis?" Luke says walking beside her looking just as cheery,
"Uh good thanks so what's with the goofy grin luke?"
"Just that Maria is having dinner with me and the folks this weekend" Steph stop short feeling hurt slightly,
"Wait mum never said we could bring people?!"
"Well she was all excited to meet Maria. Besides it looks good on me doesn't it!" Steph groans stropping off as she taps Andy making him turn to face her,
"Hey Steph. You alright?" Andy asks placing a hand onto her shoulder,
"Not really. Luke is bringing Maria to see my parents...my mum insisted on it!" Andy pulls her into him,
"Why didn't she invite you Andy? I mean your the first proper boyfriend that I have had!" Andy strokes her hair as Steph huddles closer,
"You know what Andy I'm going to bring you with me. Unless it's too soon for you?" It wasn't Andy was way past serious with this girl! He knew for a while and was too afraid to say it but now he felt was the right time to let her know how he felt about her,
"Steph I need to tell you something..." Steph went tense as she took his hand into hers and looks straight at his eyes,
"I have wanted to say this for such a long time...Steph I am in love with you!" Steph beams up at him as she pushes her lips onto his before looking lovingly at him,
"Andy I love you too!" Andy felt his heart soar as hearing those words meant more than anything to him,
"Come on let's go back to the flat!" Steph says breathlessly as she leads him over towards the flat. Steph and Andy lay huddled together in each other's arms both breathless,
"Steph?"
"Yeah babe?"
"Why did it bother you that Maria got invited?" Steph exhales slowly as she rubs his chest looking at him,
"It was more bout Luke than Maria. See my mum thinks the world of Luke like whatever he does its good you know?" Andy nods encouraging Steph to continue,
"It's like sometimes my mum is more interested with my brother than me...I just want you to be there you know to show them how happy you make me" Andy kisses her gently,
"Steph I love you and I am going to show your parents that I promise I won't let you down" Andy and Steph kiss tenderly before deepening into a more passionate kiss.
