37: Feelings

I had my few friends over at my house and we were lounging around the pool some in the water others out and it was a fun relaxing day. Nell was working today so I haven't seen or heard from her except for the good morning text and the breakfast delivery she sent over this morning.

She said she was going to come over after work today but then got tied up with Cassie and I understood she was here to see her family too so I couldn't be annoyed that our plans got cancelled and besides it wasn't like we were doing anything just hanging with my friends but I wanted her to get to know them better. Mackie wanted to get to know her better too and Seb and Aubry haven't even met her yet as at the party things were too busy and I didn't get the chance to introduce them and then she left before she and Seb got to talk when we were at her parent's house.

"Wheres Lover girl?" Scarlett asked sitting on the end of my chair getting my legs all wet. "At home." "Why?" "Because it's where her family is." "You're in a mood." "I'm not." She rolled her eyes at me. "We had the argument and things have just been weird between us that's all." "Maybe when everyone goes home you'll be okay again. She has a lot on at the moment." "She spoke to you?" "Briefly she asked me about a lawyer I use." Why wouldn't she ask me about that? "Did you give her the name?" "Yeah, they had a meeting yesterday afternoon." "Oh." "You didn't know?" "No, I just thought she was working, working." "You know what she's like." "I do and I'm her girlfriend if she was going to ask for help it should be from me." "She didn't ask for help." "She asked for your lawyer's name. I could have given her a lawyer." "She wanted my lawyer because Ria's parents mentioned him before." "You're so in the loop." "Hey, quit the snappiness with me." She warned and I sat up. "She's so frustrating sometimes." "I'm sure you do things that frustrate her too." "Has so said that?" "No."

"NELL!" MK swam from one end of the pool to the other before jumping on her, her white linen shirt now completely see-through and of course, she wasn't wearing a bra. She pulled the fabric off of her to help the situation. "Door was unlocked." She says coming over to me. "Oh, Ash must have left it open when she went to the store." She nodded and reached for my towel to cover herself up. "How is Cassie?" "Fine we hung out for a bit, I helped her with her homework and then we practised her dance." I nodded.

"Are you staying here tonight?" "No, I came to drop something off for you." She says going into her bag and pulling out a black book and handing it to me. I turned it the right way around and traced the lettering Lizzie's 29th Birthday <3. I went through it and there were photos from the whole day in order of their events. I laughed at a few of them I was a little wild. And she did take photos of me. "You did this?" "I do it for all the birthdays I take photos at." "I love it." She forced a smile. "Anyway, I have to go. I have a meeting?" "With who?" She rubbed her nose with her finger. "Just some guy." "Might want to change your shirt first." She looked down. "Yeah... Um. I'll call you or something." I nodded and she leaned over to peck my lips before leaving.

"That was a short visit." "She's not doing okay," I say watching her walk off. "I'll be back." I excuse myself and rush inside to find Nell she was in the walk-in upstairs changing her shirt. "Hey." "Hi," She said back smiling slightly. "Talk to me please." "I'm fine." "You're worrying me." "Just busy with work, bug." She buttoned up her fresh shirt. "Scar told me about the lawyer." "She did?" I nodded. "Is that who you're going to meet now?" She nodded adjusting the fabric in the mirror. "I don't like this vision of you." "Gee thanks for that, Elizabeth." She said, I noticed she was blinking a lot. "Nell?" She looked at me I could practically see her falling apart in front of me. "I need to go, I can't be late." "I can come with you let me throw on some clothes." "I'm okay... I'll come home tonight okay... Leave the door unlocked." "What time?" "I'm not sure, but I'll be here." "Okay." We shared a short kiss. "Are you still catching me?" I whispered to her, scared of her answer. "Always, Princess." She kissed me again slowly. "I love you." "Love you too," I replied and let her go.
