Chapter 3: unexpected surprises

'ahh' Nina yawns as she wakes up on Ian's arms. 'good morning, handsome' she whispers into his ear as he opens his eyes to look at the beauty on top of him. 'good morning to you too, gorgeous' he smiled as he hugged her tightly.

Nina was still relaxing in his arms, when she noticed the time, it was 8am. She quickly gets up & heads to the bathroom. 'have to meet Alex in like 3 hours, would you cook breakfast?' Nina asked, looking at him. 'I always cook breakfast' Ian playfully pouts. Nina then climbs back & gives him a sweet kiss on the lips 'and you know how I love it when you do' she adds as she heads to the bathroom.

'yeah but I sure would love to taste your breakfast!' Ian says. 'babe, just please?' Nina replies, showering. 'alright...on one condition.' he smirks. 'and what exactly would that be?' she answers as she think of something.

'I'll pick the outfit you'll wear' Ian smirks. Nina gasps 'you're not even gonna be there!' 'yeah but at least when you get home, you'll look amazing' he smiled at the thought. 'ok fine, you win.' she laughs as she wraps herself in a towel.

Ian then gets up from the bed & hugs her from behind as she combs her hair in front of the mirror with her back turned. 'heyy' Nina looks at him as he gives a wet kiss to her shoulder & trails kisses up till he reaches her neck while his arms are wrapped all around her. 'you enjoy it, anyway' he whispers in her ear as he slowly suck her earlobe. 'of course I do' Nina smiles as she brings her hand back to stroke his hair as they look at the mirror.

'now that's a perfect couple' Ian looks at their reflection on the mirror & turns Nina around so they're face to face as he says 'hurry back, baby' & kisses her forehead as he goes off & search for an outfit for her to wear.

Candice was pacing back & forth, she had managed to fall asleep for 4 hours right after she found out what was gonna happen.

Candice's POV:
Ian is so gonna kill me, I have to get the ring back & it's too early to call Mike, he's probably still asleep at this time. Hah, come down Candice, you just have to get it from Mike & all is back to normal. She tells herself.

'here you go' Ian hands Nina a sundress that fits her perfectly & stays above her knees with beautiful patterns.'i'm surprised you didn't pick anything inappropriate' she jokingly laughs as she wears it & gets her heels. 'well, you are meeting your brother so that's not an option' he laughed & added 'now be a good girl & meet your brother' he spanks her butt out the door as he gives her one passionate kiss & whispers 'bring me donuts' as she waves goodbye & he closes the door.

It was now 10am so Candice was pretty sure Mike was already awake as she calls, she heads downstairs & finds his letter, she reads them carefully before the phone dropped from her hand as her eyes widened when she read '...I have a early flight tomorrow so, I'll see you when I get back...' that's when she totally lost it & screamed.

Candice's POV:
This is so not happening. It can't, I'll be damned! But he didn't say what time the flight was so maybe I'd still get a chance. I have to get that ring before Ian finds out I let it out of my sight!

And with that Candice got back upstairs, quickly dressed herself up, grab her car keys & drove straight to the airport as she murmurs 'I will have to do everything to get that ring, no matter what it takes, I won't let down a friend' she steps hard as the car speeds up.
