To Love Thy Enemy

Chapter Five

    I missed her beautiful face so much, as I turned and hugged her. "I f*****g missed you." She said before I could get the words out.

        "I can't believe...Wait how did you know I was here?" I said to her as I pulled back to look at her.

    She gripped holding me by my arms and looking me over "I saw my brother and you glaring at each other by the car and when I realized it was you I snuck in before my brother seen me." She winked and hugged me.

        "Why weren't you at the party?" I said stepping back and leaning against a sink with my arms crossed. 

    She pushed her hair behind her ear "Well my plane just landed back here from Paris," 

        I grinned "Oh really, and how was that trip?"

          "It was lovely, I met some French b***h and took her for a spin." She laughed.

    This was one of the reasons that I loved her, she never held anything back and she made sure that everything was a hell of a ride. She was truly the definition of a bad b***h, for a long time after her family stopped coming to visit, she still made the trips during the summer. 

        She put her arm through mine "Let's go deal with my brother." 

    I laughed as she opened the door and on the other side stood a very pissed off Noah, we walked out and she patted his face "Hello Brother happy to see you to. Table for two adults and one....child." She pointed at her brother.

        I tried not to laugh as we followed the host to the table and took our seats, it was a round table by a window. It was a cute little restaurant, the walls were white with yellow and pink flowers all over it, it had a old country vibe. Kind of like a how my Nana's kitchen looked like and it made me smile, down to the vases of flowers that sat on the table. 

    Nadia set across from and I sighed because that left Noah only two spots and he sat in a chair that was between us, as he sat down and adjust his leg it touched me and I jumped looking over at him and he just c****d an eyebrow looking at me with a smug look.

        "I'm so happy your home Cat, I needed someone to help me not be bored around here." Nadia spoke and I turned my head to look at her smiling.

    "I know right, it feels so good to be back. It took me a world of convincing to get to this point." I spoke looking over the menu.

        "God I'm so excited for you to go to events with me. Mm there is a few premieres and shows that we should go to." She said.

    "Good luck convincing him of that, you see what I have to deal with now." I pointed my head in the direction of Noah.

        Nadia laughed her head falling back and I felt a hand brush against my leg as I took a sip of water and spit it out pushing my seat back. Nadia looked over at me confused and Noah set back staring at me as if I had lost my mind, I definitely didn't know what to say. I wiped my mouth and shook my head about to say something when the waiter came over and we order our food before going back to the conversation, all I wanted was a chicken salad with fluffy dinner rolls. 

   "Since your back you'll have to come around when Momma comes back, you know you always did love her food." She spoke, sitting up and paying attention to someone across the room, she smiled at them a little and it's like she was no longer in the room.

        "I haven't had her cooking in so long, I would kill for her to make me Panna Cotta." I said leaning on the table. 

    Nadia laughed picking up her glass of wine "Of course that's what you missed, it does sound delicious though."

        When our food arrived I was starving, Nadia had finished to glasses of wine already and I'm not talking small glasses either and as normal Noah was gloomy and quiet as normal as we carried on our conversation about food and different sights to go and see. 

    "Wait...How come Mateo is not with you?" Nadia looked over at Noah who was drinking a beer, he looked at her with a look of distaste.

    "I'm sure he's doing his job." Noah spoke.

        I looked between the two as they continued to talk and ate my food as they bickered.

    "I don't understand what's wrong with me asking about our childhood friend and were he was." She took a bite of her pasta looking at him.

        "Well how about you don't inquire with me." He said in return.

    "I don't know why you have to have such a large stick up your ass all the time." Nadia spoke putting a piece of chicken in her mouth.

        I choked on my water looking away trying not to laugh, and he looked over at me, "You find something funny here?"

    I sat down my cup, "Well yes my dear, I completely agree about that stick up your ass. From the side view it looks pretty large. Would you like some help with that?" 

        His leg brushed mine and he stared at me waiting for my reaction and I just stared at him not saying a word or even breathing for that matter, if I could reach across the table and punch him I would. But that wouldn't be nice...Now would it.
