a/n: here's the next chapter! Enjoy :)
After Heather left, i don't think i could be any happier than i was. It's like being in the moment and you're too scared to leave. I can't wait.
Heather's Pov:
Once i got to work, i don't think i could stop smiling. It's like the world just made me a lot happier. And since knowing Naya is in town, i think our friendship is going to re-connect. As i got on with my work, i saw the note still on my desk. Just as i was about to read it, my phone started to go off. "Hello?" I answered, i never read the caller ID, as not many people seem to phone me. "Hey it's Naya. Just wondering if you read the note on your desk?" She asked me. I thought it could have been her who left me the note, or Ashley but she's on a business in London. "I did wonder who left me the note. I was about to read it, but you phoned. Maybe you could tell me now?" I asked hopefully into the phone. I hope Naya will tell me, as i have a lot of work to be done and i don't think i'll have time to read it. "umm.. y-yeah sure, i was just wondering if you had read it that's all. But as you ask, i might as well t-tell you." Naya sounded nervous into the phone. This is getting me agitated to know what she wrote. I mean, the notes, been there a couple days, so i'm not really sure what it is. "well, i kind of live with Amber at the moment, and she is going on tour tomorrow, so i was wondering if you wanted to stay the weekend with me." Wow, i didn't expect this, i mean we haven't seen each other in a year and all of a sudden she wants me to stay over. Apart from the fact that i'm having lunch with her tomorrow, i don't see why not. "Heather you still there?" I must have gotten lost in my thoughts again, oh well. "yeah, sorry was lost in thoughts. I'd love to come over for the weekend, only as long as i'm not getting in your way." I've always hated getting in people's way, i'm one for staying in the background part of things.
Once the long phone call was over, Naya and i planned lunch and then her coming to work with me. After that i would go to her's for the weekend. I don't know where she is going to go though, as there isn't really many places, but we'll figure things out when it comes to it. I really am looking forward to lunch, just us two and all the lunch break we need. Just as i put the note in my bag, as i don't have to read it, Mark comes up to me. "so where's all the paperwork?" I totally forgot about him doing the paperwork, that i nearly finished it all. "here ya go. I forgot so you ain't got as much as i hoped for." I said smiling at Mark who just walked away. Once he put all the paperwork on his desk, Mark decided to come back over. "so when is your date with Nay-Nay?" Smirking i hit Mark across the head, as both of us know it isn't a date, yet. "You know it's gonna happen soon, pretty lady." After Mark got his second treatment of a hit over the head, i got back to my work.
Naya's Pov:
So today i start recording my new album. I'm gonna make a tester album for Heather, just to see if she likes it. I hope she does, 'coz some of these songs are aimed at her. Tomorrow i get to go to her work after lunch, as it is easier for the both of us that way. All i know is that she works with Mark at homicide, he says that she's bullying him into paperwork but he wont tell me why. It probably isn't too important anyways. One thing i like about my job is that i get to chose when i do the recording, i guess this is what happens when you get a recording contract. Only with Heather she doesn't, so that is why I'm going to the police station after lunch, so she can finish and then we can go to mine. I'm still not sure how she is going to get her stuff together unless she goes home after lunch, or even before hand.
I'm on my fifth song out of ten, I'm apparently on record time according to Amber. I guess that's a good thing 'coz I still gotta get another five done before lunch tomorrow and be able to work in the cafe in the morning, i guess I got a busy schedule ahead of me.
Heather's Pov:
"I don't really know what to do. It's like tomorrow and i don't think i'm ready. A weekend with her, don't you think it's too soon. I'm looking forward to it but i want to get to know he again." I said into the phone, i really am looking forward to my weekend with Naya, it's this afternoon and all but.. ugh i don't know. "Look Heather don't worry, i'm coming home next weekend and you can tell mama Ash all about it okay?" I've always loved talking to Ashley, she always calms me down in a situation that i always need help in. "Okay, but i can call you anytime i need to right?" I know i can, but this is different, i think. "yes Hemo, you can call whenever, but this time it better be good. You're going to your friends house for the weekend, it's your chance to get to know her again." Yup Ash always knows how to calm me down.
After our very long conversation, i got ready to get lunch, and meet up with Naya. Truth be told i am a bit nervous about this. If you look at it this way, a year apart then suddenly a weekend together. Is it me or is it a bit quick? Anyway i can't stop now, gotta just go with the flow and hope our friendship re-bonds enough to feel comfortable for a weekend. Just as i was about to leave my phone went off.
FRM NAY-NAY: thought it would be easier to pick you up. white SUV by main door. ;)
TO NAY-NAY: thnx, helps a lot. be out in a sec ;)
She was right about being by the main door, it's like i didn't have to even walk out the door to get to the SUV. I got in the SUV in silence, and Naya drove off in silence. She was the first to break the silence. "so when do you finish tonight?" Good point, i forgot i had to work a bit later today, and now i can't even remember. Well done Heather, lost it again. If i make up something... wait that's a bad idea 'coz of Mark, i'll just say i need to ask Mark or Cory, as i can't remember. It isn't a total lie, in fact it is more or less the truth. "umm.. i can't exactly remember i'll ask Cory when we get back to the police station." "okay then... so where are we going for lunch? I was thinking that Italian place down the road, but your choice." She smiled at me. What's up with that smile, it's like it's irresistible or something. Gets me every time, ugh what is up with me. "y-yeah, i-i mean if you w-want." Omg I've completely messed this up. What is she gonna think of me now. Just as i get myself together, i heard her laughing at me. "What? Is there something on my face?" After saying this i frantically starting to find a mirror, just as i went to get my bag she stopped me. Holy Crap, she's holding my hand, Bloody fireworks i think i'm gonna pass out if she don't take her hand away. "No, it's just...you. I haven't seen you for a year and you are still the same around me. I like it." She blushed, that blush. Always get's me going, just her i can't not be like this around her. "Is that a good thing, or not?" I blushed, i could feel it this is probably the most I've embarrassed myself around her, unless you count the first time we met, that was embarrassing. "I'd say it's a good thing." She smiled at me again, and let go of my wrist.
Naya's Pov:
That blush, get's me going every time. This is gonna be one fun weekend. Omg, what if i scare her and she runs away. Keep calm Naya, she's sitting next to you she'll easily know if something is up. Oh crap, now i'm scaring my self. Stay calm, Stay calm, Stay calm. Okay i'm good, oh look the restaurant, good. "Reservations under Rivera." I said, Omg i can't believe this is happening. "follow me, please." Just before we sat down, Heather ran up behind me and pulled my chair out for me. " umm... thanks." Wow she's blushing again, Keep it together Rivera."thanks, I've always wanted to do that... Omg did i just say that." Again blushing, Omg she looks so cute. "Don't worry, i kind of liked it." Keep it going, don't lose her now. "Are you ready to order ladies?" The waitress came over and by the looks of it, she's checking out Heather. Oh shit, she's nervous, what do i do? Got it. Just as the waitress looks at me i take Heather's hand, to get that creep to leave her alone. As the waitress left Heather spoke up. "Thanks for that, she was creepy." I don't think she realizes that we're both still holding hands, oh well i like it. "No problem, any time." Shit i just said that, fuck now i sound like the creep. Just as our meals came, still holding hands, Heather looked at me, then down at our hands, then back up at me.
