THE THING BETWEEN ME AND YOU

CHAPTER THREE

Silence filled the apartment as Carla stays passed out upstairs.

I sit at the chair next to my apartments balcony as I wrapped a blanket around my shoulders as more memories flows back.

I danced around Nathan's apartment with his shirt, wearing nothing underneath it. He slipped his arms around me and kissed me tenderly in the lips.

"Do you like it here my love?" He whispered in my ear after pulling away from my lips.

"Are you kidding me?" I love it here honey and I love you more. I squealed excitingly as he ushered me to the bedroom. He stood behind me, His sweet manly scent intoxicated my senses and and I found myself moaning in satisfaction with my head resting back on his shoulder.

"Alexa my love," He groaned deeply as his large soft hands caressed my arms slowly rubbing down my stomach to my waist.

He undresses me, my body Instantly shivered from the cool air hitting my sensitive skin. He laid me on the bed as he suddenly cupped my ass and massaged it gently. He sucks my n*****s, his other hand kept playing with my c**t, twirling and teasing it. I was so wet, I couldn't control my moans any longer. I moaned loudly as he Inserted one finger in my p***y and and moved it in all directions and I squirt, my moans became louder than before.

"Nathan, I cried out" feeling good bad enjoying how his fingers rubbed and teased my opening. I wanted more, I needed more. I reached for his boxers and managed to pull them down to his knees, letting the rock hard c**k spring out and jerk up to his stomach with a bit of pre-c*m seeping out of his tip

The sound of a horn honking down below brings me back to reality. I stood up, sat at the breakfast bar and I load up my laptop.

"ouch," Clara says as I turn my head seeing Clara stumbling down the stairs with her her hand on her head. Her hair messed up, she looks a little pale..paler than usual. My head really aches, she says grabbing some tablets from the cupboard and some water.

"so how was last night?" Clara asked, pushing me out of my thoughts. It was okay I had fun you know. I roll my eyes at her

"So I kissed Adams again last night" Clara hesitates as she scratches her head. Oh, yeah! I saw, we all did, I smiled looking into her eyes for her to say something. What are you doing with him? You make out with him all the time when we go out and then the next day you pretend like nothing ever happened.

She sighs, "I know, I know it's not right.. but I enjoy every feeling I have with him when we kiss.

"You know Adams likes you," I tell her

None of us had to tell Clara that Adams has a crush on her as anyone could tell from his actions. "Of course I do. Do you see how nervous he gets around me?" She pouts and smiles dreamily.

I just, I can't do it. I'm not used to being tied down to one guy and you know that. I just want to feel all the hot and sexy guys around me. I run and I don't want to hurt Adams because I won't be loyal with him.

" You're also hurting him by doing what you are doing, throughout making out with anytime you want and then the next thing you pretend like nothing ever happened between you two, when you know how he feels for you." I smile sadly at her.

Someone rings the door bell as I went over to open the door as I see my two assistants, jane and Adams buried I'm an argument, they didn't even realize when I opened the door.

"Those two shrimps!" Always arguing like couples. Suddenly I felt a vibration on my hand, "who the hell is calling me?" I sigh, as I picked up my phone to receive the call. It was a call from Hazel, "so how is the preparations going?" She asked. It is going pretty well and I'm very certain it would be a perfect wedding. I assure her while I sit at my desk tapping my nails against the desk. We'll be coming over Hazel said before I end the call.

"How are those pictures for the Ford's coming along?" I ask Adam.

" I'm done, but they changed the pictures they wanted in the wedding journals" Adam shrugs. I tried changing the pictures but they haven't even fully decided on the one they want.

"I'll sort it out"

"So how long do you think they'll last"?

I give it a year I c****d my brows waiting for their response.

I give it three months," I saw the groom walking out the cloak room with a bridesmaid then a few hours later walked out with the maid of honor" Adams blurted out

" Why do people get married to someone if they're going to cheat?" Jane ask, and I shrug as we get the binder out of the cabinet that has the invitation template cards in it for Hazel and Leonard to choose from.

"Because people are selfish and only care about money or s*x", everybody just wants pleasure, Adams sighs sitting on the desk just as the bell above the door rings and Hazel and Leonard walks in.

"We're late, right?" I knew we were late, traffic was a nightmare. Hazel says

I told you we should hit the road earlier, Leonard says and Jane and I agree with him. "See, these two gets it."

"I don't get what the whole traffic in this city is about." Adams shrugs.

"Because you're not from here." A person who doesn't hit the road earlier like thirty minutes to the actual time would be stuck in a serious traffic. It's easy to pick out the people who were from here and the people who moved here" jane chuckles.

" You guys are a whole lot, " Hazel says and we smile before I offer for them to sit at my desk as we discuss further into the wedding preparations. "And yes! Here is our guest list but there may be a couple of people we forgot." Hazel hands over a list to me full of names and addresses.

"Alright then, so you guys have nothing to worry about, as soon as the location is picked..we can send out the invites straight away without a worry on your head." Jane smiles

.

" Thank God! Some of my friends have had weddings and gas complained about all the stress they were put through" Hazel sighs.

"We take on all the stress of planning a wedding as the wedding planner so you don't have to" I smile.

"Now, with a short time limit as wedding planners, we suggest for your meals at the weddings to have a buffet as people can take so long to decide and send the RSVPS back so it can b harder for the catering company. It is your wedding, but we just like to point it out," I explain.

" I think a buffet will be great." A lot of our families and friends have young kids and we're not very formal anyway," Leonard agrees.

"Is it bad?..I want to hug and peck them for making our work so easy." Adams asks making us all laugh. Unlike others we've planned weddings for that would take forever to arrive at a decision, Adams shrugs.

"We really need to hug you guys, I chuckle." So here are the templates, I say before opening the binder.

"I did not know that there were so many options," Leonard sighs.

"How did that happen, anyway?" Usually we only get the brides to be in here, Adams asks

"I told him if he really wants us to get married in four months, he has to get his butt to work." Hazel laughs, making us all laugh. They're so many to choose from, I'm thinking of something classic and simple.. maybe white and red.

"It will be perfect! What do you think, babe?" Hazel asks

"I like them, Leonard agrees" so these are the ones, babe? He asks and Hazel nods.

"perfect! I really find it lovely working with you guys I smile. I can get them all sorted till when we have the venue, I explain.. closing the binder and putting it back in the cabinet.

"Great! This is all coming together, are you guys busy tommorow night?" We're throwing a little dinner at our place for our families and friends and our bridesmaid and groomsmen will be there. We realized since we'll be spending alot of time together it would be nice to get to know you guys more" Hazel insists. "And of course bring any partners you guys have." She winks.

"Anything free I'm in, Jane says making us all laugh and we all agree to join them tommorow for dinner at their place before they leave.

"I'm ready glad to have them as my clients," I chuckle

.

Gently pushing some strands of hair away from my face and behind my ear, I smile towards Hazel and Leonard's family and friends as the light sound of music fills the outside area while people chat away to one another while some sang to the music.

I stand back to admire the sight in front of me. The beautifully decorated house and the garden which was decorated with fancy lights.

"Hope you guys are enjoying yourselves?" Hazel asks. Yes we are, Adams popped out from no where smiling sheepishly.

"So I know jane has a girlfriend, Ashely abd Adams and Clara have that complicated thing going on," Hazel trails off, c*****g a brows at me.

"What about you Alexa?" She says winking, I have plenty of attractive cousins to set you up with as Leonard also does.

"Well, as appealing as that sounds. I'm not one for dating." I'd rather focus on my businesses.

"She has the whole independent woman who doesn't need a man thing going on." Clara rolls her eyes at me.

"I haven't dated since my last relationship ended in a bad way and it almost made me loose my mind and almost cost me my future," I explain. After that, I focused on setting up my business and I don't intend to let a guy to distract me.

"If I ever see his face again, I'll give him bruises all over," Clara threatens, sipping her wine.

"Please tell me we're not talking about bruising my face?" Leonard appears, wrapping his arms around Hazel.

"We're not talking about you, silly. Where is your best friend?" Hazel asks, he's your best man and I wanted to introduce him to Alexa since she will see our brides maids and groomsmen alot.

Leonard sighs. "He's on his way, he got stuck in a meeting." The upside of being a CEO."

"well, he should be here soon and he said we should start getting out," Leonard tells Hazel. I take my seat next to Clara, laughing as Adams attempts to take the wine off her as she almost falls over. "She's not drunk, just clumsy."

"I know, I know I'm late. Don't kill me Leo," a masculine voice says as I place my napkins down on my laps.

"I guess I forgive you, since I know you hate those meetings and that punishment is enough." Leonard laughs.

" Now that you're here, we can eat," Leonard says before I look up. I part my lips in shock as Leonard's bestfriend and Bestman takes a seat in front of me. Looking into his familiar deep blue eyes, he dosent even hide the surprise in them when be sees me sitting in front of him.

Although it's been years since I last saw him, I know it's him.

"Alexa, this is Leonard's best man and bestfriend, Nathan. Nathan this is our wedding planner, Alexa." Hazel Introduces, oblivious to the fact that we already knew each other. Clara chokes on her drink, but I pay no attention to her.

We didn't look away from each other. All the memories of our relationship hit me all at once.

"Put your heels on the headboard." Nathan instructs, grabbing my calves and pulling up my leg and spreading them wide in front of his naked crotch. He puts my heel behind him.

The height of my headboard keep my ass uplifted from the mattress. He sits on knees close to my naked crotch and grabbing his bare length, he points his tip on me.

I sigh by his tip touching my tummy and he moves the tip of his hardness over my c**t in a small circle.

"Grab your tits." He says with his heavy voice.

The noise of plates and glasses clattering around me brings me out of the memory we had together. Me and Nathan are still staring at each other while everyone else is busy engaging in conversations. Clearly he's as surprised as I am to see me. We have had no contact with each other since we broke up and neither of us expected to see each other once again. Looking away from him, I focus on my food and everyone else around us who are oblivious to our staring content. Well, everyone except Clara, who is giving daggers at Nathan.

This is going to be a long dinner.
