Please read and review
Keiras POV

I woke up to the early morning moonlight shining in through the cream colored mesh curtains; the window was slightly open, blowing the curtains back and forth. Nick was laying on his side facing me snoring sightly and mumbling in his sleep. His arm was draped over my midriff. I woke up my mouth felt like I swallowed a jar of cotton balls. Not like I really know what it would be like to consume a jar of cotton balls. I imagine this is what it would feel like.

I don't even really remember getting here from A.J and Rochelle's last night. I am not even sure what came about from Nick and Lauren's conversation. All I know is I drank far to much alcohol last night. The pounding of my head symbolizes this. I feel like one of those toy symbol monkeys are right on top of me clanging together with every thought.

I look over at nick and couldn't help but wonder where do we go from here. I moved nicks arm off me careful not to wake him. I walk down the stairs to the kitchen and open all of the cubboards looking for a glass. I needed water and I needed an advil in the worse way.

"Aha" I say a little to loud as I shut the cupboard door. After finding a glass and the advil. I wince expecting to have the sleeping dogs come at me. Luckily they are heavy sleepers like their dad.

I tip toe over the black tile and marble kitchen floor, to the water cooler I grab a drink of water. I continue to walk on my tip toes. I start to head back upstairs when I look outside and catch a glimpse of the ocean. The ocean has always been my favorite spot. I never understood how something so peaceful could be so deadly. I opened up the door as quietly as I could still being slightly intoxicated. This was not the easiest thing to do as I stubbed my toe on a houseplant.

I was about to open the garden french doors that lead you directly to the ocean when I feel warm arms wrap around my waist. I knew that touch any wheres, I let myself fall into his arms. He instantly made me feel at ease. I don't know how someone can make you feel so good and bad at the same time.

"Mmm...come back to bed it's still early" Nick mumbled "You okay?" wiping the sleep out of his eyes.

"Better now" I grab his hand and give him a kiss. Im sorry I didn't mean to wake you."

"No, its okay. I just wanted to check and make sure you were okay. You were pretty sloshed." Nicks eyes widened in mock horror.

"Im sorry I don't remember much about last night. I remember feeling like a lot of things were up in the air with us."

Nick turned me around to face him and picked me up like I was a sack of potatoes and smacked my ass. "Up in the air like this?"

He carries me up the stairs like this me staring at his perfect cute bum. He puts me down on the bed "I told you it was early young lady."

I chuckle at his crazy antics. He pulls the covers up over me and snuggles into bed behind me and whispers in my ear

"You have nothing to worry about Sophia." Nick says huskily as he nibbles the bottom of my earlobe, his hot breath making me shiver all over.

"Nick, Im serious" I turn around to face him. He moves the hair out of my eyes, and looks at me so intently and so innocent he couldn't keep that look for long though.

"I know you are, I don't want to hurt you Sophia." He holds me even tighter and stares directly into my eyes he stutters on his words. "I...I am falling in love with you. Things are complicated right now Babe. That being said...You are the one I want to be with."

Nick leans in and kisses me so passionately, so tenderly with so much urgency. So much need and so much love. I couldn't help but return the kiss. How could this be wrong if it feels so right.

I returned the kiss and Nick pulls away breathless from the kiss. He looks at me and pulls me closer.

"Not like this- I want our first time to be perfect." Nick draws small circles on my hand.

"You didn't say it back. Its okay if you don't feel the same way." He says avoiding my eyes probably so I couldn't see the hurt in them.

I roll myself over so im laying on his bare chest with the back of my head is laying on his heart. I move Nick's head so hes looking at me. "Of course I feel the same way. Its scary though because I don't want to be your rebound and I don't want you to be mine."

"Does this feel like a rebound to you Soph?" Nick sits up and rests his head against the black leather head board.

I sigh in response "No. It doesn't" I sit up and lean my head against his.

"Good it doesn't to me either, so does this mean that your done with that 30 day rule?" Nick looks at me hopeful.

I couldn't help but grin "I don't know Nick. Do you want it to be?"

He tucks a peice of hair behind my ear "Of course...I want to go out with you and hold your hand and kiss you. I want to dedicate songs to you. I just really want to be with you."

I sigh "Nick I really want that too, but what If Lauren comes to her senses and realizes what a great guy you are. I mean she is your wife."

Nick banged the back of his head against the headboard and massaged his neck. "Sophia, thats the complicated part."

"She did come to her senses and she does want me back. I told her I was with you and that it was to late. She stripped down in front of me and he kissed me Sophia and I have feelings for her Soph, but they aren't the feelings I have for you.

"When I drop you off Soph, or you call me. My heart beats like im alive again." Nick pulls me closer to him. I can't really explain it. It feels like I did on my wedding day whenever I look at you, I can't believe your mine."

"Nick, I love you." I blurt out. I cover my mouth not believing the three words I never thought I would say again to another man. Here I am saying them.

Nicks eyes widened in shock "I didn't expect you to say that. I love you too." Nick grabbed me and kissed me like he has never kissed me before.

"We will make this work..I already have a meeting with my Lawyer Tuesday to make the divorce final." He states like its nothing.

"Nick are you sure, I mean it wouldn't be easy but I could walk away."

"Sophia you are my future. Lauren is my past it's simple. This is why I never wanted to get married in the first place." I hear him mumble the last part. It sounded like he was bitter so I left it alone for now.

"Okay so where do we go from here?"

Nick leaned in and kissed me and he moved away from the kiss causing me to bite my lip in excitement. "I think this seems like a great spot to spend the morning, in your arms, kissing you, hugging you."

I nodd "I think you are absolutely right, Mr. Carter".

Laurens POV- 6 days Later

"Rodderick don't worry...our plan is going to work out perfectly. I just need to let him think I want him. He could never walk away from me. I know just what he likes. Just know that it is all for show baby. You are the one im going to come home too."

"Where are you now? You better make sure you make this work."

"Im just driving to the airport. I'll be there soon. Luckily, Nick hasn't changed his passwords so I can catch him there."

"Lauren, you better make sure this works you better get the signature. Or everything we have sacrificed is for nothing."

"Dont worry Roddie, he isn't going to get away with killing our child, and he isn't going to get away with our company. Sweet little Sophia is going to have her world blown up around her." Lauren pulls into the parking spot and looks at the photos the PI gave her from the night before.
