Nanny’s Life

Chapter nine

It was getting late, and I was still lost in my jumbled mind trying to think what to do, I was still pedaling, not as hard as I was an hour ago.

Still thinking if I should go back, back to the mansion I have been living for less than a week but It had already become home.

I missed the kids but my stained face and my crushed feelings stoped me from returning.

I passed the streets without noticing anything, not where I was, not the people walking, not the sounds of the streets, nothing. I was just empty, I wasn’t caring.

Until I saw a cute cafe and stopped to drink something comforting.

I parked my bike beside the shop and I secured it with the pink chain.

Upon entering the bell startled me and I walked slowly to the counter were a cute guy smiled and asked me what did I want to order,

His smile made me feel a bit better.

"Hi, I'll like a pumpkin spice latte please"

"Ok that'll be $3.50, anything else?, we just baked blueberry muffins."

"Thanks just the coffee will be perfect"

I took a seat on the corner where there an brown armchair was rested right by the window.

There I started thinking what I could do. I could go back to my tiny apartment if the landlord hadn’t rented it already.I was lost, I just needed some time to get back on my feet.

Callum's POV

I can't find her anywhere,

I can't stop thinking of her face when I told her all that stupid stuff, I just wanted to have a barrier between employer and employee, but I blew it.

I was scared to think that just in a weekend and someone I knew so little about was braking my barriers the ones that I worked so hard to build after Lilian's actions wounded me so deeply.

I was driving the SUV, having left Jeffrey because i couldn't handle not being able to control everything at that moment.

The first place I searched was her old apartment, after I searched the library she used to work at, also nothing there then I started wondering where she could be and I called Sonia to check if Darcy had returned, no luck.

I was going mental after 2 hours of searching the endless streets and I took a break and walked towards a small abandoned parke where I remembered I saw Darcy at the day I met her, when she raised that delicate hand and showed me that fu#% you finger

I remember how furious I was, now I can't stop smiling at her action.

I walked, into some streets trying to stop my mind from picturing her tearful face before she ran away.

Until I saw her bike, parked away holding onto a post.

I ran to it in my suit an all and touched it, it made me feel better knowing she was near, and that I had almost found her and could have her in my arms.

I continued walking a couple of steps and that is when I saw her asleep right beside the window with a tear full face and a cup of coffee in her hands.

She looked like she was out of an old book, her soft skin shining with the last rays of the sun.

I entered the coffee shop and went to where she was resting, the barista welcomed me and I asked how much time has Darcy been here; half an hour.

"Do I owe you anything for the coffee?"I asked the barista

"No sir she just had a coffee and she already payed for it."

I remembered that she didn't have anything for breakfast so I asked for some muffins for her and the kids.

I approached her and took the cup from her sleepy form then I took her by the waist and picked her up to put my jacket on her back, then picked her up bridal style to the SUV that was a couple streets away.

When we reached it I laid her down on the passenger seat and then went to retrieve her bike.

I couldn't stop watching her mesmerized by her beauty, her gorgeous head of hair all wavy and glossy, her small but sensual lips, her slim and beautiful body, and kind heart.

What is wrong with me she is my kids nanny, I can't do this to myself, keep thinking about her like that and she probably doesn't want me.

That just makes me angry, so angry that I can't have what I want.

When we reached home, she was starting to wake up, pouting her lips and scrunching her forehead so adorably.

Without waisting any time I carried her in my arms again, she placed her hands on my neck for support, she yawned adorably and hugged me closely, I stopped breathing for a second when I felt her heart pressed right against mine.

I opened the front door with my right hand that was by her knees, with little to no struggling I took her through the corridor and into the stairs, that's when I heard her sleepy voice "what are you doing?"

Her eyes were struggling to open and I just wanted to see those lovely deep violet eyes with their blue outline that took your breath away every time those were directed at you, the weird sensation of the pulse of energy whenever I touched her soft skin was driving me insane, thinking what it would feel having her below me with her legs rapped against my waist while I venerate her with my body.

I couldn't stop.

I couldn't stop thinking about her waking up by her side, hearing her lovely and sweet laugh, touching her and being with her, when she is happy, playful, angry and sad, so I can be near her to share that together.

I'm so overwhelmed by her, everything in me is craving her, something that is not allowed, makes me want to do it more.

"Shh it's ok, you're safe with me" my voice was taking a softer tone to make her feel protected and safe.

When we reached my bedroom I wanted her there, where I can watch her sleep instead of her bedroom so I took her though the threshold and layed her down on my king sized bed, finally safe where I can watch her.

'What is this woman doing to me' I asked myself the same question over and over again

"Ahh Callum" the last words I heard from her sweet mouth before I fell asleep next to her. And I fell asleep with the biggest smile....
