More Than Business

Chapter 26

Nicki pov

I woke up the next morning naked in Lydia's arms. I reminisced about last night, our final night together. It was... Amazing, honestly I can't even sugar coat it.

I sat up and checked my clock: 5:30am.

I stretched and climbed out of bed.

By the time I had showered and began getting dressed Lydia finally woke up.

"Morning babe" I smiled.

"Morning" she groaned, still tired.

I walked over to her and played in her hair a bit.

"Mmm get dressed babe you have a busy day today." She urged.

I was in my bra and panties...

"I knoww I knoww." I groaned.

We got to the office an hour later after she had got dressed and we had to get everything together for Drake.

"Are you excited?" She asked.

"I think so.."

I started my computer and began reading emails. About 20mins later I got a text from Drake.

-gonna be late. Car trouble...

_aww do you need a ride?

-its okay, Im gonna take it to the shop and catch a cab

_gross lol! Keep me updated.

-I will

Ugh!!!! Of course today!

I started getting to work on my paper work before getting things together for Liyah.

By noon I got a call from Vanessa saying she needed me to look over something.

I walked out of my office, Lydia was talking with a woman.

"There she is." She said pointing to me.

I gave her a confused look.

"Hi my name is Hope, I'm the new intern." The woman introduced herself.

I turned to Lydia, "where is Vanessa?"

"Meeting room A on the 3rd floor." She stated. "I'm supposed to come with you apparently."

"Yeah you both have to come." Hope said enthusiastically.

We got on the elevator and exited on the 3rd floor.

We walked into meeting room A.

"Surprise!" A bunch of people jumped out at me.

Vanessa walked up to me.

"W-what is this?" I asked.

"Its a party for you." She said.

"W-why?" I asked, beginning to hyperventilate, "I-I didn't do anything. Its not l-like my b-birthday or anything."

"Nic calm down," Lydia coaxed.

"Is she okay?" Vanessa asked Lydia, "I was just trying to be nice."

"She's just having a panic attack. She's fine. I'll explain later." Lydia replied.

"Should I tell everyone to leave?"

"No no its fine, I'll bring her back in when she's feeling better."

I sat on the floor against the wall since standing took too much effort at the moment. Lydia knelt beside me and pushed my hair out of my face.

"You're okay babe." She coaxed.
