----------------------------------------
Shortly after we had our lunch, everyone went home and now it's just me and Nick alone in the house. Before going up the stairs, I kicked off my heels loving the feel of my feet being bare, but winced when they touched the ground.

Nick came up from behind me and lifted me into his arms. He carried me in the bridal position making me sigh in content and making him chuckle at my strange happiness. I didn't have to walk, that's as happy as I'll ever be.

"Thank you." I leaned my head on his shoulder and felt his chest vibrate as he laughed.

"You're very welcome." He took us to our room and sat me on our bed. He walked into the bathroom to change, I reached over to my night stand and saw that I had a missed call from Natasha. I dialed her phone and she picked up on the second ring.

"Ashley, Hey." She quickly spoke into the phone.

"Hey, did you need something?"

"Yes, I wanted you to know that I'm picking you up tomorrow, there's something important I need to tell you." I got really nervous and kind of scared as to what it is she has to tell me.

"I-is everyth-thing okay?" I stammered. Nick came out of the bathroom in only shorts and my eyes were glued to his torso. I gulped and tried my hardest to listen to what Natasha was saying and Nick had his eyes glued to the phone.

"Everything's fine, I just need to talk to you about something, don't worry about it okay? Just be ready by noon." The words came out of her mouth so fast it was like she spoke a mile a minute and if I know Natasha as well as I know I do, then she's nervous and is hiding something important.

"Okay." I hung up the phone and went back to looking at Nick, this time I only looked at his face. "Is it okay if Natasha and I go out tomorrow? She really needs me."

He nodded and advanced towards me, he climbed onto the bed, sitting beside me. He placed a kiss on my shoulder, I looked up at his beautiful grey eyes and turned to face him, then gave him a light kiss on the lips.

"Think you're ready yet?" Ready for what? I looked at his face and instantly realized what he meant. In all honesty, I've thought about this a lot, since our date. I think I'm ready, no, I know I'm ready to be with Nick that way, I'm ready to fully mate with him.

"I've been thinking about it." I watched as his eyes were searching my face for what I was going to say. "I've realized that I am ready, I'm ready for us, to finally be together that way." He let out a low breath and smiled at me.

"Are you sure?" He asked and I nodded. I'm going through with this, I stand by my decision. "Okay, well Angel you better get your rest tonight, you'll need it." He laughed making my eyes go insanely wide.

"Don't scare me like that, you make it sound like I'm gonna die." His laugh grew at my reaction and he whispered in my ear.

"I'll be gentle." He kissed my lips making me pull away.

"Aw, you're so considerate." I said sarcastically. "And you get no more until tomorrow." He looked sad and put his head down in defeat.

"Good night, Angel." He leaned on the pillow and flattened himself on the bed. I got up to change out of this dress. I put on one of Nicks t-shirts, washed my face, and tied my hair in a messy bun then climbed in bed and fell asleep.

I Finished getting dressed with half an hour to spare before Natasha would be picking me up. I wore a white anchor tank top with black strips and a shimmering red anchor in the middle, I had on high waisted navy shorts, and some white converse. My hair was curled to perfection, I decided to go with light make up.
