The Host: Epilogue 4
I wake up with the sun streaming through the window. I look to the other side of the bed and see Jared fast asleep. I smile and get up from my position to get some coffee. It's been a month since Wanda and Ian came over. Some basically I'm nearly two months pregnant and I have a small bump forming on my tummy.
Over the past month, Jared and I have been looking for bigger flats or a house and we have found the perfect one. We're visiting it later on today. It's a three bedroom flat, en-suite, and a bathroom. It has a kitchen cum dining room with a living room off the side. It has a small room which we thought we could use as a play and changing room. We love it.
Once Jared is up and changed I go have a shower. I stand in front of the mirror after my shower in my underwear looking at the bump. I smile to myself and pull my summer dress on over my head. I brush my hair and teeth and put some earrings in.
When I come out Jared sees me and wolf whistles. I stand on my tiptoes and give him a quick kiss before grabbing the car keys and his hand and pulling him out the apartment. By the time we get to the car, he is still staring at me, especially my stomach and he has a cheeky grin on his face.
"Stop looking at me will you?!" I say to him as I give him the keys. But inside I love it. I love him.
It takes us about half an hour to get to the house and we see a lady in a suit waiting outside. She is smiling at us as we get out the car.
"Hello, im Celia Irons. I am head of this property at my estate agents", she says as she shakes both our hands.
"Im Jared Howe and this is my girlfriend Melanie Stryder. Thank you for letting us look round!" he says as he takes my hand in his.
Celia unlocks the door and leads us into the hall. It's beautiful and so spacious. We look round the rest of the house and I can see in his eyes that Jared loves it as much as I do. At the end of the tour Celia leaves us to talk for a bit. We both agree that we love it and it's so perfect if it's within our price range. After a while Celia comes back in and tells us the price.
It's all sorted. We're to move in next month. We smile at each other as we leave the house. As soon as were in the car, Jared leans over and kisses me passionately. I whisper words of affection and he says the same back. I know it's going to be a good night tonight.
