After
Brandy tm them both, “Sorry, I didn’t send this last night but I’m home safe.  I was kind of busy LOL!” She proceeds to make coffee.  Thinking a ham and cheese omelet will be a nice start for breakfast this morning.  As she starts to get the stuff out of the frig and trying not to wake Nathan, her phone chirps in reply.

“Nice to hear from you, I take it you had a good night out?  Pete and I are thinking of stopping by tonight at Arnolds for some wings.  Are you working tonight?” she tm
Mikey back “Yes dear and I would love to see you guys there.  I start at 4, catch up with you later.”

“Great, can’t wait to hear about your night, was sex god there?”

“Yes and actually he is here with me still sleeping” she giggles at her tm knowing that will keep him going all day.

“You go
girl! Save some for me though!” stifling another giggle “In your dreams only Mikey!” just then she gets a tm from Tiffany.

“Nice of you to remember, I understand though, I was busy myself if you know what I mean!”  That’s my girl.  “Good to know everything worked out good for you too.  What time are you heading home so I’m not dancing around the house naked?” playfully asking. 
Brandy knows she wouldn’t do that but it is fun to tease.

“Yea right, LOL we are going to shower then head out for breakfast first.  Did you want me to pick anything up for you and Nathan?” she inquires.

“Nope, I’m making breakfast right now and coffee is brewing.  See you in a little bit.  Mikey and Pete are going to come to Arnolds for wings tonight; did you want to join them?’

“I’ll check to see what Denny is doing I’ll let you know later and put some clothes on! :-p”

Smiling at her funny antics she starts making breakfast pouring some coffee.  While her back is turned she feels two strong arms come around her waist.  Kissing her neck softly “Smells good what are you making?’  turning around to stare into those deep blue eyes, giving him a slight tap on his bare chest, “I was going to surprise you with breakfast in bed but you’re already up.” pouting with her lip out.  He nibbles her lip kissing her gently. 

“I’m sorry should I go back, get naked and let you be breakfast instead?’ he teases her

“Now that is a proposition I will take you up on some day!” he does look delicious.

Lifting her up into his arms he kisses her again “God you are just so adorable.” he twirls her around.  She’s laughing telling him to put her down so she can finish breakfast in between her giggles.  Placing her down
, she smacks his chest lightly handing him a cup of coffee.

“OK mister why don’t you go sit on the couch at least while I finish breakfast put on the TV for entertainment for now.  I can’t obviously cook food and romp around with you.”  Jokingly replying, she could do this every morning.

Bringing the plates over he is watching some business channel she never knew existed.  Slightly engrossed on what is happening on TV she puts the plates on the coffee table.  He turns shaking his head like he is clearing it.  “Sorry, I can get intensely engrossed when I have business riding on the stock markets” clicking off the TV.  “So, I think you mentioned you have to work today?”

“Yes, I have to be in at 4pm at Arnolds.  If I get the job that was posted for at the bank I won’t be working Saturdays anymore, which will be kind of nice.  Even though I will miss the people.” sighing. “I made you a ham and cheese omelet, are you hungry?”

“I’m famished after last night!” he winks digging into his food.  She does the same since obviously sex takes a lot of energy out of you but it’s a good kind of exercise she has come to enjoy with Nathan.

Watching him eat as he sits in his boxers she gets a full view of his magnificent body.  He is so tone and masculine any women would be lusting to be sitting next to him.  Taking bites of her omelet feeling really good to have this man with her.  Hopefully he feels the same but something is still off which she can’t put her finger on it yet.  Just as her thoughts are scrabbling his phone rings beside him.  He must have brought it out with him when he came to see where she was.  Excusing himself as he looks at the caller id he exits the room. 
She flips the TV back on scanning through some channels finally finding something funny on TV as she finishes her omelet letting him have his privacy on his phone call.

He returns several minutes later not as happy as when he left when he sits down.  Placing his hand warmly on her leg and rubbing it softly, “I was hoping to spend the afternoon with you before seeing you at Arnolds for the wings
tonight but obviously “as he shakes his phone with contempt, “I have other things that need to be address right now. Are you ok with that?” obviously not sure of how she will respond.

“Of course I’m OK, you have things going on as do I, no problem, I’ll look forward to seeing you tonight, so is this somewhat of another date but I’m working thing?” playing with him since she’s not all business having no clue what is churning his gut right now.  She doesn’t want to make him feel bad for what life is throwing at him.

His smile warms her heart again cupping her cheek as he pulls her in for a sweet kiss, “I will be there tonight, sorry I have to leave sooner than I wanted to today.”  He states with a heavy sigh.

“Well, I tell you what
,” putting down her plate “We can’t possibly go to work looking like we just walked out of bed.” Feeling playful she grabs his hand pulling him towards the really small bathroom to enjoy a extremely close shower with him.

Taking her robe off as he takes off his boxer’s turning to start the shower. “I don’t want you going to work dirty, neither can I, it’s just a shower to clean up so we can think about our next time together.”

Pulling him in as she lathers him up as rubbing her body to be washed with his.  He is intrigued responding as sweetly as he washes her back.  It’s only a shower stall so we take turns under the water to rinse off our soapy bodies because we are using each other to scrub up.  He washes her hair as she does his smiling as we turn around to rinse off each other’s hair.  It’s sensual more than sexual as this point just being able to touch and feel the cascading water wash away as we clean our bodies.

Brandy is f
eeling whole with him without having to have him in her which makes this moment so special.  She is seeing in his eyes the same dawning of our souls connecting that we are complete.  Holding her tightly as she holds him we lather up. We are one. Free spirited and lavishing this moment before the real world kicks in.

The water starts to turn cold as she shivers slightly.  He turns to shut of the cold holding her in is arms to warm her.  His embrace reaches to the depth of her soul relishing this moment and embracing it in her memory forever.  She has never felt this close to anyone in her life, standing naked in a shower feeling completely exposed.

Stroking her wet hair he kisses her neck leading them out of the shower.  Wrapping us both into the same towel he softly caresses her cheek as she leans into his warm chest.  “You complete me, I don’t know how or why but you are…”as she pauses “just absolutely perfect” he kisses her with such emotion knowing the feeling is completely mutual as his body responds to her statement.  She has said words that she is afraid to say but couldn’t express until this moment.  She just feels natural when she is around him it is perfect.

Not wanting the moment to end, knowing that Tiffany will probably be home soon so we need to dress. 
Brandy sometimes hates the fact that she keeps those facts in her head constantly because they are really annoying right now.

“We’ll before we get caught with our pants down, we better get dressed and ready or my roommate and your “mate” might catch us naked.  She chuckles.

“You’re right” he says with a heavy sigh “If I could hold a moment in time, I would do it right now” smiling so sincerely.

Our day has now progressed as he gets ready to head out and we are thankfully dressed and looking good before Tiffany and Denny show up.  They looked like they have had a great night too as she can see in her eyes the pleasure.  The talk is lively but short lived as they both have to head out today.  Knowing we will see them tonight they leave as Tiffany and Brandy go over their exciting nights which we giggle and girl talk about.  Now we have to tell Mikey and Pete which we decide to fill them in tonight before “the boys” show up. 
Brandy leaves that job to her since she will be actually working and serving them.  She doesn’t think that is great dinner conversation for obvious reasons.  Her life has definitely taking a turn to becoming awesome which is all because of Nathan.

Nathan didn’t like the fact that his father called him this morning when he was just starting his wonderful day with Brandy.  He is all business and wanted to know how his “investments” in Nathans business was panning out.  It upset Nathan that he has to have in hands in everything all the time.  Nathan’s father stressed firmly he needs to get the reports now
or what
?  He will cut him off; at this point sometimes he doesn’t care.  Business is going well and Nathan wonders if he can do this on his own?  Does he really need his dad always poking into his business?

Chapter
13

Brandy starts
her night at Arnolds for the first time in months.  She talks to Sam the owner before her shift telling him she might be getting a full time position at the bank.  He is really happy for her saying when and if you have to leave it’s OK, but no matter what everyone will miss her.  He makes her feel appreciated which she gratefully tells him.  Sam and his wife Nina are such sweet people; they remind her so much of her family back home.  Understanding life changes and willing to accept when we “young” people have to branch out to reach our goals.

Taking over the evening shift getting into her routine Tiffany shows up with Mikey and Pete to hang out.  She can tell by the boys looks she has filled them in on our new “love life” per say and they are both glowing with enthusiasm.  Shaking her head going to wait on their table since she still knows Mikey will pipe up first with wanting to know every detail.

“So, what can I get everyone tonight?” She is trying to sound like a normal waitress.

“Oh honey, I already heard you are getting something and that is filling enough!” Mikey says. Pete smacks his arm playfully, “Really, do you need to do that to her when she was asking us
to order like normal patrons.”  Pete replies as he looks sternly at Mikey.

Her thoughts exactly and we all start to laugh.  Breaking away she says “Seriously now you three what would you like from the bar?”  They tell her there orders and Tiffany
states they will of course wait to order food until our ‘boys’ show up.  Brandy nods in compliance going to the bar to hand in their order. Going over to some other tables she needs to take care of since it is Saturday night and they are starting to get busy.  She takes care of another couple who is at her station then heads over to a couple of girls that are sitting together.  Starting to take their order as one of them stops mid sentence and says “Oh my! Look what just walked in!” she exclaims to her girlfriend.  Before she can glance around since her back is to the door the girl turns and says, “Now that is sight for sore eyes! I would love to get into his pants!”

She turns to see Nathan is walking
in and yes he is a sight! His dark hair and bright blue eyes bring a fresh ambiance to this simple place.  Strolling behind him is Denny and the girls she is taking orders from gasp because now they have to great guys to gaze at.  “Oh my, did we decide on the right place to eat tonight!” one girl says, “You got that right!” Exclaims the other! Brandy is laughing inwardly knowing why both these handsome men are here with a bright smile trying to break them away from their star gazing to get their orders.

After getting their orders she turns around when Nathan locks eyes with her.  He smiles warmly giving her a nod. Denny sighted Tiffany and they start to head over to their table.  Placing the food order she has for the two girls that are gaga over Nathan and Denny she walks over to take their order.

Asking them what she can get them to drink giving them a chance to look at the menu which Nathan already has in his hands, scanning it he shakes his head looking up at her.  “There seems to be a problem with this menu?” stating matter of fact.  Puzzled she looks down at the menu he is holding and for the life of her she can’t figure out what he is talking about.  He points to the main menu section and says “Its right here” as she leans into him slightly to see what he is talking about, he starts chuckling “You’re not on the menu and that’s the whole reason I’m here tonight!”  She smiles warmly back at him giving him a soft kiss, “Well, maybe I can be put on your dessert menu” saying it somewhat suggestively.

His face lights up
“Now, I feel much better knowing what I can have for dessert” and we both start laughing.  Everyone at the table starts to laugh at us being too cute as Mikey puts it. 

Getting their drink orders and Tiffany tells them we have to have a few of the different style wings tonight.  They are delicious as she explains the different kinds that are available.  Heading to the bar to get the drink orders finally seeing Nina, Sam’s wife, is now bartending.  She smiles motherly at her asking who her new friend
is.  Telling her briefly that he is someone she has been recently dating she nods approvingly.  “It’s good to see you get out and start dating, I was beginning to worry that you are all work and no play.” As she looks over at Nathan, “And you have excellent taste, you go have some fun!” handing her the drink orders patting her on the hand warmly.  She is such a sweet women, she will definitely miss her if she gets the job.
