As always read and review you know how much I love to feel the love :)

XOXOXXO

David reluctantly drove away as Elena walked into work, he really wanted her to call in and spend the day with him. He wasn't really sure what to do until Elena got off work, what was she doing to him? He never had a problem spending time alone, now that he spent time with her he really didn't want to spend time without her. He had to admit that he was falling in love with her, how could he not, especially after this morning, he never expected her to be able to stand up and say those things to Brittany. He knew she was a strong woman, she just never let it come out, but not this morning, no this morning she was everything he knew she could be and more.

Ring...Ring...

Smiling as he knew that it was Elena.

"How did it go gorgeous?" He didn't even say hello.

"I am leaving at lunch today" She answered him.

"Awesome, I miss you already you know that" he told her.

"Awww, your so sweet, Josh dropped off flowers here at work" She answered him.

"He what?!?!" He yelled into the phone.

"Baby that is my ear" She said to him.

"I'm sorry babe I didn't mean to do that in your ear, we can talk more about this later" He apologized.

"That sounds good we can talk about this more when I get home" She replied.

"Ok I will see when you get here, I will wait ever so patiently" He responded.

"I think more impatiently is a better word for it" She chuckled.

"Same thing, have a good day babe" He told her.

"You too see you in a bit" Elena hung up the phone.

David hung up hte phone and smiled to himself, yes he was falling in love with this woman and he had to make sure that Josh was no longer in the picture. He knew that Elena didn't want Josh back in her life, but she wouldn't be free to love him the way she wanted if she thought that he would be back. Picking his phone back up he called Pete.

"Good Morning mate, you are up early" Pete said as he answered.

"Yeah was wondering if you had a chance to talk to Josh or the lawyer yet?" David asked.

"No, I am at the doctor with Izzy, once I get out of here I will make the calls" Pete replied.

"Oh, he brought flowers by her office" David told him.

"Did he, mate I wish I could call now" Pete responded.

"Its ok, I'm not trying to rush you or anything, I know your at the doctor, I take it you two made up last night" David asked.

"Yeah we did, I had to show her how sorry I was for acting like an imbecile as your girl put it" Pete chuckled.

"You have to admit that it totally reminded you of what Izzy would say to one of us right?" David laughed with his friend.

"Yes it is something Izzy would say, she really likes Elena you know that?" Pete asked.

"I do know that, Elena really likes Izzy too" David replied.

"Good, your falling for her?" Pete questioned.

"I am, this morning she wasn't happy when I told her about Brittany flirting with us, she thought I would leave her for someone younger and skinner, then after we talked that through, she told Brittany off when she was outside her door, you should have seen her she stood tall and proud, I also like that she got a little possessive of me when Brittany tried flirting with me again this morning" David responded.

"It seems that she shows how strong she is when we lease expect it" Pete told him.

"Yeah and I like, its so sexy on her" David answered.

"Trust me I know, I love with Izzy gets all I am woman hear me roar" Pete said.

"Do you think that they know when they get all confident how sexy we find it?" David asked

"I don't think so because Izzy would probably do it more often if she knew, just like she doesn't know I know about what movie she puts in when she wants to nap" Pete replied.

"So a baby huh?" David questioned.

"Yeah it appears that I am going to be a dad" Pete responded.

"Congratulations Pete, I know that you didn't think you were ready for it, but you are" David told him.

"Thanks mate, well look Izzy is up, I will call you after I call Josh" Pete said.

"Ok, have fun, talk to you later" David replied as he hung up the phone.

David felt better now that he admitted to someone about his feelings, he knew that he was admitting it to the wrong person but he wasn't sure how Elena would react. Would she run away or would she say she felt the same way? Unsure of what to do he decided to go home nad get some work done while he waited for Elena to get off, he couldn't wait to spend the rest of the day with her. He turned on the radio and Heart "These Dreams" came on, he wouldn't admit to anyone how much he enjoyed this song, but it made him feel a little better. David pulled into the drive and walked into his house, noticing another note on Elena's door, he thought about taking it but knew that would upset Elena so he left it. He walked over to the stereo and turned on the same station to finish the song and listen to whatever came on next, Old rock and roll always seemed to improve his mood, he wondered if Elena liked this music. He turned on the computer and decided to get some work done, he didn't really need to, that was something he had to talk about with Elena soon. He knew that she wouldn't like it if he kept things from her, but how do you tell someone that I'm rich. He could afford to live in a big house and drive a more expensive car, but why? He never was into the glitz and glamour of what money could buy. He knew that Elena wasn't either and that was what he liked most about her, from she told him, her parents had money but she worked hard for what she had. Working hard for what you want brings about great character his father always told him, which is why he built that web design company, he loved web design but after what happened with Rebecca he sold off all his shares, the house, the cars, and donated everything to the Salvation Army. He tried to live the glitz and glamour lifestyle, but it wasn't for him, it had left him alone and wondering what he had missed. He started to miss his Mother, she told him when he started making a lot of money that Money couldn't buy him the things that he wanted most in life nor could it bring the happiness that her and Dad had. She was right, he knew that right now she would have the perfect advice to give him. He looked at the computer and started to work, trying to get his mind off how much he missed his mother.

His phone chirpped letting him know he had a new text message.

Leaving work for lunch with Izzy now :) - Elena

He smiled and sent his reply

Good, miss you, tell Iz that I said hi

He waited for her reply and smiled as his phone chirpped.

Miss you too, Iz said hi and that no more boys allwd during girl time XOXOXO - Elena

He chuckled as he typed his reply, he was truly falling for her.

:( k, i expect all those hugs and kisses when you get here

He sat his phone down and went back to work.

Ring...Ring

His phone is what brought him back to reality about an hour later, it didn't even seem like he had been working that long.

"Gorgeous, I thought no boys allowed" He said as he answered.

"Well we are having lunch at Olive Garden and wondered if you wanted anything" Elena responded.

"I will eat whatever you bring me babe, so are you coming home soon?" He asked.

"Maybe, miss me?" She smiled.

"More than you know, do you miss me?" He questioned.

"Very much so, think about what we are going to do with the rest of the day" She answered hoping maybe something like last night would happen.

"I can think of lots of things, most of them starting with all those hugs and kisses I'm going to get when you get here" He told her.

"Oh, I might like that" She replied blushing

"I thought so, I know I will, and I can feel you blushing" He said.

"You can?" She asked.

"Elena come on, pregnant woman here" Izzy said as they walked up to the door to go inside.

"I can, talk to you in a bit, send me a text when you are almost here, I will meet you outside" He told her.

"Alright, bye baby" She responded.

"Bye gorgeous" He said as she hung up the phone.

Good lord he really was falling for that woman, not five minutes later his phone was ringing again.

"Hello" David said into the phone.

"Hey Mate, I talked to Josh" Pete answered him.

"So?" David asked.

"Well this isn't going to be easy, but I think that he is gone for good" Pete told him.

"Really?" David said back to him.

"Yeah I threw the whole pressing charges and stuff at him, he didn't like that but said that he would leave her alone if we didn't press charges" Pete responded.

"Mate that is the best news I have heard all day" David replied.

"Figured it was, so our ladies should be back soon, how much are you missing Els?" Pete asked.

"Quite a bit, I'm thinking I should tell her about the money" David answered him.

"You should, she would be angry if you kept something like that from her, and besides we all know that she isn't like Rebecca she doesn't care about the money" Pete said.

"I know, I think that is what I am going to do, Pete I just realized that if Josh dropped off flowers at her job I should probably have flowers sent their for her to mark my territory, after all she did mark hers this morning" David told him.

"Thats not a bad idea, maybe you should surprise her tomorrow at lunch, show up with flowers and take her out" Pete replied.

"I like that, thanks Mate, who knew that you could be romantic" David chuckled.

"Years with Izzy has done that to me, what can I say I love that woman and would do anything to make her happy, even it means looking like a pansy" Pete chuckled with him.

"I am beginning to understand what you mean" David replied.

"Love does that to a person" Pete said.

"I guess it does, I am finally understanding what my parents tried telling me all those years ago" David answered.

"Sometimes we think are parents don't know what they are talking about, but they truly do, I'm sure your Mother would be proud" Pete told him.

"Thanks, well I am going to finish what I am working on before Izzy gets back, are you going to tell her the good news or can I?" David asked.

"You can, if she has any questions tell her to call me" Pete answered.

"Ok, talk to you later" David replied

"Later mate" Pete said and hung up the phone.

David went back to work and finsihed up the design he was working just as his phone chirpped to let him know he received a text message.

Leaving the restaurant now. - Elena

He got up from the computer and typed out his reply.

Outside waiting for you

He walked out the front door and walked over to his car waiting patiently for his woman to get here. He saw Izzy's car pull up about five minutes later and smiled, her and Izzy were laughing as if they had been best friends for years, if things went his way they would be best friends for quite a long time. He walked over to the car.

"Iz, thank you for bringing her back safe" David said leaning into the car.

"You are quite welcome, talk you two later, I have a hungry husband at home waiting for me" Izzy said with a smile.

"Ok, bye love you" Elena said to her.

"Love you too, tell Kirsten that sounds like fun" Izzy replied.

"I will" Elena replied and shut the car door, turning to David.

"Hey gorgeous, I missed you today" David said taking her in his arms and hugging her.

"I missed you too" She said hugging him back.

"Lets get inside" He told her walking her up to his door.

"Ok" Was all Elena got out before he started kissing her, showing her just how much he missed her.
