Two hours later, Ford and Dominick showed up at Nathan's front door, absolutely covered in mud from head to toe.
When Nathan, who was a bit of a neat freak, saw them, he took a step back, clearly grossed out. "What on earth happened to you two?"
Dominick, worried that Nathan's reaction might upset Nathalie, quickly chimed in, "Boss, Miss Nathalie is waiting in the car. She brought you loads of fresh goodies from the farm."
Nathan's demeanor changed instantly, and he shot Dominick a sharp look. "Why didn’t you mention that sooner?"
Dominick, looking a bit hurt, replied, "You started griping about how dirty I was the second you saw me."
Nathan glared at him, "Enough already... Just zip it."
Dominick clamped his mouth shut, clearly miffed.
Nathan made his way towards the parking lot in long strides. It was only about thirty feet away, but to Nathan, it felt like a marathon.
His nerves were through the roof. It had been two whole years since he last laid eyes on Nathalie. After his impulsive confession to her, he’d taken off on his overseas adventure. Now, seeing her again felt like a sequel to that bold confession.
He couldn't help but wonder if Nathalie would welcome his feelings or turn him away.
With a mix of anxiety and hope, Nathan approached the car and gently opened the door...
The steady rhythm of her breathing filled the air, and her peaceful sleeping face was as serene as a baby's. Nathan couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
He slid into the car and gently took Nathalie's hand in his.
He thought, whether or not Nathalie had feelings for him, he had to express his intentions with honesty.
When Nathalie stirred awake and saw Nathan, she looked adorably confused.
