'This is nice, although you really shouldn't shut the Bistro for me.' Carla says smiling as she glances around the empty Bistro.
'What can I say, I wanted you all to myself.' Nick admits reaching for her hand. He links their fingers together as she smiles over at him.
'Is this your first time leaving Freya?' He asks noticing her glance down at her phone.
'Yeah...' She replies quietly.
'We don't have to be here long.' He says gently squeezing her hand.
'No, she's fine with Ryan and Chelle. I know she's fine... It's just strange.' She replies causing him to smile.
'You can drink you know...' She says gesturing to the orange juice in front of Nick.
'I don't want to drink.' He replies smiling.
'I missed you.' Carla admits and he leans across the table.
'I missed you too...' He says reaching his hand up to cup her cheek.
'Nick...' She whispers biting her bottom lip as she glances up at him.
'Let's go back to yours.' She says as he tucks some hair behind her ear.
'You sure?' He asks and she nods her head.
'Let's go.' She replies smiling.
'Where are you going?' Nick mumbles groggily as Carla sits up in bed, the covers held to her chest.
'No where... Just texting Chelle.' She replies pulling her phone out of her jacket pocket which got thrown on the floor a couple of hours ago.
To Michelle :
Are you okay to keep Freya overnight? There's plenty of milk for her in the fridge xx
From Michelle :
Of course... She's currently lying in Ryan's bed, they're both asleep. Good night so far with lover boy then?xxx
To Michelle :
How adorable. It's been perfect xx
'Everything okay with Freya?' Nick asks as she places her phone on the bedside table.
'Everything is fine.' She replies lying back down and rolling onto her side to face him.
'I owe you a new shirt.' She says smiling as she runs her hand down his chest.
'You owe me nothing, just promise you'll give us a shot.' He replies and she nods her head.
'I don't plan on letting you go ever again.' She says resting her head on his chest.
'I brought you coffee.' Nick says as he makes his way into the bedroom where Carla is sitting with her back against the headboard.
'Thank you.' She replies taking the mug from him and smiling as he sits down on the edge of the bed.
'Are you regretting last night?' He asks as she sips the coffee.
'No, why are you?' She asks.
'God, no... Last night is the only thing I've wanted for the past year.' He replies causing her to laugh.
'Am I that good in bed?' She asks raising her eyebrows at him.
'Well you are but you know that's not what I meant. Just being able to hold you in my arms.' He replies.
'Are you working today?' She asks and he shakes his head.
'Nope. Not working until Friday.' He replies smiling.
'I could stay here all day.' She admits placing her mug on the bedside table and sliding down until the covers stop at her chin.
'You won't hear me complaining.' He says gently stroking her cheek with his thumb.
'I've got to go get Freya.' She replies.
'Bring her over here? We can watch some movies, have lunch, maybe even go for a walk in the park.' He suggests and she smiles.
'Are you sure?' She asks.
'Positive. I love you and I'd really like to get to know Freya.' He replies.
'Okay. I'll bring her over here.' She says smiling. She reaches up and wraps her arms around his neck pulling him down for a kiss.
