7 Five Minutes (1/2)

Nathan stayed longer in the shower because he was lost in thought, he was supposed to sleep next to her?, what if.....something happens?.....

Nathan shook all the stupid thoughts out of his head. After drying his hair, he stared at his reflection for a while ”deep breaths Nathan, deep breaths”

Nathan walked towards the bed and saw that Shola was fast asleep, the blanket was no longer covering her and she was hanging at the edge of the bed about to fall he couldn't stop himself from smiling.

He covered her properly with the blanket and lay next to her, he stared at her hair having this urge to wake her with a kiss.

Nathan quickly turned around facing the other way but soon an arm wrapped around his waist and a soft breath on his back, Shola whispered sleepily ”don't go..” holding him tighter, Nathan stayed still making sure that he didn't wake her up.

Shola woke up feeling comfortable and refreshed, her pillow was extremely soft....'I'm on Nathan again aren't I?'

Her head was on his chest listening to his heartbeat while his hand was around her waist protectively.

A blush quickly crept up on her face as she realised the intimate position they were both in.

She slowly untangled his hand from her waist but he pulled her closer ”Five more minutes, just five minutes, lets stay like this for five minutes” Nathan sleepily said, after overworking himself yesterday his plan was to stay in bed all day and snuggle with his wife.

Shola felt like her heart was going to beat out of her chest, while his heartbeat was as calm as water, five minutes felt like five hours for Shola, Nathan finally got up from the bed and turned to look at the dazed woman, ”Good morning” he smiled before walking out.

Shola stared at the door and then touched her chest, her heart was beating faster than usual ”Probably allergies ” she said to her self as she walked into the bathroom.

Shola went downstairs for breakfast and as usual the maids greeted her asking her what she would like for breakfast, she was'nt really in her right mind as she kept thinking of Nathan.

Nathan was sitting at the dining table when she reached there with a cup of coffee in one hand and a news paper in another, he was wearing a black well tailored suit looking really official and more attractive, when Nathan turned to look at her she said the first words that popped into her mind ”Good morning....I mean hi, I mean.....” Shola wanted to slap her own mouth, she told her self to keep shut.

Nathan smiled at her adorable behaviour, he should really be sleeping in her room more often.

After breakfast, Nathan walked straight to the living room and sat down on the couch. He opened his laptop and begin to type away. Shla walked up to him curiously ”Aren't you going to work anymore”

”I'm just not going early today” Nathan said not telling her the real reason why he was going late, he wanted to spend a little more time with her before he left but, his plans were immediately ruined that morning.

”Master.....” butler Stan walked up to Nathan with a nervous look on his face

Nathan noticed that something was wrong, he looked at butler Stan and asked ”What is it?”

”The Old Madam is here to see you, she's in the garden”

Nathan's expression changed quickly, he looked at Shola ”I'll be right back, just stay here”
