to?" "Yes! Absolutely! Please come and be careful love." Men, I'll never understand them.
Chapter Six
I quickly picked up the house and put something in the cr ock pot for Nicholas then left a note next to it. "If you happen to get home before I do which I'm sure you won't, I'll be out for a while. I forgot to go pay a few bills and they need to be taken care of today. Dinner is in the crock pot and I will see you soon." I'll be home before he gets home surely but I just never can tell when Nicholas will decide to surprise me by coming home at 5pm like a normal husband instead of 8 or 9pm. I get dressed and jump in the car thinking I remember how to get to Johns house. Thank goodness I already took a shower. What seemed like a few minutes I was pulling into John’s very long driveway. I still couldn't get over how beautiful his house was. It reminded me of some log cabin from a country painting, although a very large log cabin though. John had the door open before I even saw the house apparently because he was standing on the front porch just waiting for me. The minute I saw him I definitely was not tired anymore. He came running up to the car and practically yanked me out of it and wrapped his arms around me in a big bear hug. Man, did he smell good. I will never get used to his smell. He leaned back and looked me in the eyes. "Ava. I have missed you so much." I couldn't help but giggle. "It wasn't that long." "Any amount of time away from you is long my love." He bent to kiss me then lead me into the house. I thought he smelled fantastic but when I walked into the house I was overwhelmed with all the aromas of eggs, bacon, biscuits, and of course coffee. He had made me breakfast! No one has ever cooked anything for me...ever. He led me over to the very oversized kitchen which was so dark but yet had a welcoming feel to it. The counters were all dark granite tops and the drawers and cabinets were a dark mahogany wood. There was a bar that wrapped around the kitchen, and an island in the middle. All the appliances on the other side, all stainless steel of course a man would have nothing else I'm sure. "I hope you like breakfast. I know many people don't eat breakfast, including me but I thought since you had been up all night this could actually be more like dinner than breakfast for you." You could tell he was very pleased with himself and awfully cute in the process. "I rarely eat breakfast but that's because I don't feel like cooking just for myself and then cleaning it up as well but I always have coffee." He got the message, sent me a wink and walked over to the coffee pot and poured a cup. He fixed it with the perfect amount of cream and sugar then set the cup in front of me. “How did you know how I like my coffee?” “Lucky guess is all.” That was the best explanation I was going to get apparently because he proceded to fix me a plate. I watched him walk and work around the kitchen in amazement. Never in my life have I seen a man work in the kitchen, well unless he was fixing something, this was a nice change. I quickly came to the conclusion that men could be really great cooks if they want to be. I have never tasted a breakfast so good in my life. John actually joined me which was new but lovely. It was nice spending time with someone who actually wanted to spend time with you as well. Once we were both finished he led me into the bedroom. "Here you go Ava dear. Lie down and rest. I know you must need it right about now." The last thing on my mind was sleep. The longer I was around John the more I just wanted to rip his clothes off. It was next to impossible not to want him. I put my hands on his chest and reached up and kissed him. I could tell he thought it was just going to be a quick peck but there was no way I could stop with that. I kissed him long and deep before he pulled back and looked
