Part One Part Two Part Three Part Four

As Nicky opened the door, we could hear raised voices coming from somewhere in the house..

"Look, Georgina! You can’t barge in here, thinking you still are a part of our lives, it’s time to move on! Nicky has found happiness with someone new, so why can’t you?" said a male voice which turned out to be Nikki, Nicky’s dad.

"But, I don’t want no one else, I want Nicky, we were together 6 years, and doesn’t that tell you something&ldots;." Georgina replied.

At that moment, me and Nicky walked in, Nicky didn’t seem that happy about Georgina’s presence. " Hi Dad&ldots;. Georgina, what the hell are you doing here?"

" Nicky, darling, I’ve missed you so much, I was kind of hoping we could get back together, cos I love you so much&ldots;" Georgina replied as she dabbed her eyes.

At that point, I didn’t want to hear anymore, so I quietly left the room, and found the rest of the lads in the lounge, along with Nicky’s mum.

I sat down next to Shane, who put his arm around me, and said "look, Eil, Nicky loves you more, all he talks about is you, Georgina only wants him back since her dad is no longer in the public eye and she craves public eye on her."

"Thanks, Shane" I replied.

Then we heard a slamming of a door, and then Nicky walked in, and Shane moved to let Nicky sit next to me. Nicky’s dad also came in, and apologised about what just happened. So we just sat there all talking until Shane, Kian, Mark said they were gonna go with Bryan to his house, so they left saying something like see you in the morning.

Nicky’s mum Yvonne went into the kitchen to put the kettle on for a cup of tea! While the tea was being made, Nicky took our bags, and put them into his room, as we sat there on the bed. We knew we couldn’t share the same bed, I mean it wasn’t right under the circumstances that Nicky’s parent’s were here, but Nicky said that his parents didn’t live here, this was his apartment, his parent’s just kept an eye on it.

So we went back down to the lounge, where Yvonne was pouring the tea.

" Eilidh, how do you have your tea? Nicky your tea is the one with the spoon in it&ldots;."

"White, one sugar thanks," I said as she handed me the cup.

As we sat there chatting, the doorbell rang. Nicky went to see who it was, it was Mr Aherne, Georgina’s father.

"Bertie, would you like a cup of tea? It’s freshly made!" asked Yvonne politely.

" No thank you Yvonne, I was looking for Georgina, actually, she hasn’t come home and we are a bit worried" replied Bertie.

"She’s not here, and she left about 5 minutes ago, in a huff or something." Replied Nikki as he drank his tea.

Nicky sat there drinking his tea, saying nothing. I politely excused myself and walked out and up the stairs, to his room. "Are you okay?" he asked after seeing his parents off and coming to find me. I replied, "I guess I’m just tired, that’s all, I’ve been up all day&ldots;.and in need of a bath or a shower&ldots;.."

"Come on, then, I think we could ‘both’ do with a relaxing bath or spa even.." he replied, leading me to the bathroom. "but Nicky, your parents&ldots;.." I protested.

"my parents have gone home, they left with Bertie. So there’s only me and you!

As we got to the bathroom and I saw that the bath was a very big and deep spa bath, and could fit two people quite comfortably in it, I gave in , " Well, then what are we waiting for?&ldots;.."

After getting undressed in the privacy of the toilet, I walked out, Nicky was already in the spa, so I got in on the other side, the jets of the spa seemed to relax my body. It feel so relaxing in the bubbling water, and Nicky didn’t help, by his constantly splashing, so I thought this is war, and starting splashing him back, then he grabbed me, pulling me close to him. I felt safe, and secure in his arms, so I planted a kiss on his forehead, and we lay there in the bath for about an hour. I got out first, and grabbed a heated towel, and then Nicky got out, I handed him a towel, but the only towel he wanted was the one I was wearing. He grabbed it, and it fell to the ground, I quickly picked it up, and wrapped myself in it. he wrapped his towel around his waist, hiding his small tattoo on his back&ldots;. And we walked back to his room. Once inside his room, we got changed, me in my pjs and him in his boxers&ldots;..and then it was time for bed.

we said our goodnights and kissed, and then Nicky left the room, so I got into the bed, and turned off the light. it was lightly raining outside, so I fell asleep listening to the rain.

I was awoken in the morning by a quiet voice asking "Eilidh, u awake?" it was Nicky.

"yeah, now I am.." I replied.

"I brought you a cup of tea, I didn’t know what you wanted for breakfast, so you can have whatever you want. I left Shane, Bryan, Kian and Mark in charge of the kitchen and I better go back before they do something silly, so come down when you’re ready&ldots;" Nicky said, handing me a cup of steaming tea, and then quietly left.

Hmm I thought, I wonder what the guys are doing here. I drank my tea and got dressed. I walked into the kitchen, to a smell of a full cooked breakfast being prepared.

"morning, guys, smells delicious&ldots;I’m so hungry&ldots;" I replied, winking at Nicky.

"morning Eil, so what will it be? Bacon, eggs, toast, black pudding, white pudding, sausages, etc?" replied Shane, as he broke a egg into the pan.

"What a choice?, just toast, bacon, eggs, please, don’t like black pudding that much," I replied, as I refill my cup.

"Have you tried White pudding? Come on, you have to try it," said Shane.

The rest of the lads were sitting there at the table, reading the papers, leaving Shane to do all the cooking, and stuff.

"So, guys, how come Shane is cooking, and you guys are sitting here," I asked thinking that it was unfair for Shane.

"oh, we were helping, but Mark kind of drop an egg onto the floor, which Bryan stood in, and then Bryan fell on to me, who was carrying the plates, luckily I didn’t drop them! And then Shane got annoyed so he banned us from the kitchen." Replied Kian laughing.

I couldn’t help but laugh.

Nicky brought the plates of food to the table,

"Hmmm, delicious, and I wasn’t just talking about the food," I said.

The guys stared at me and then at Nicky,

"so Nicky, is there anything you want to tell us?" asked Bryan, as he started eating.

"um, nope!" Nicky quickly replied.

"So what are your plans for today, guys?" I asked as I buttered my toast.

"well, we're all having a day off, but Ronan did say he would come over later, with our schedules for the next couple of months." Replied Kian.
