It had been a few days and Nick was still staying with her. He was a true gentleman who apparently had no problem sleeping on the couch, helped her with dinner and made her feel like he'd always been a part of her home life. Catalina knew that at some point she was going to have to face up to what her boyfriend did by going home to testify in his trial but she still had a while and felt like she could enjoy the time with Nick considering there was no way Michael would find her as he wasn't allowed to leave the country.
Nick wanted very much to share Cat's bed, not for sex but just to wake up next to her, but didn't want to push her into something she wasn't ready for and so made sure he never crossed the boundaries set by her. What he didn't know was that she wanted the same thing but wasn't sure how to go about asking him if he would share with her.
At dinner that night the sleeping arrangements came up, with Nick being very forward about his desires.
"Cat, I don't want to make you uncomfortable but I would very much like to share your bed. I just wanna know how you feel about that?" He asked worried when she smiled at him instead of answering and got up to leave the room. Worried he'd upset her he followed her.
"Cat I'm so – "
He didn't have a chance to finish the sentence being completely taken aback at what he was seeing. He was watching Catalina begin to move his stuff off the couch and start taking it upstairs. He stopped her by simply asking "are you sure about this? I don't want to pressure you."
She responded with a kiss and a simple "yes."
