Nathan POV
"Don't be exaggerated" I laugh at such an aberration and take his hand, the one that was on my cheek: "You'll do fine, you're a brainiac. I trust you."
I make her smile and she throws her arms around me. Knowing what she expected from me, I reach out my arms and pull her into a hug feeling her little body settle into me. Although it felt good to have her like this, there was a little black spot inside my head that knew time was ticking and these cheesy things must soon pay off.
"What do you want for dinner today? It's on the house."
I kiss the crown of her head and feel her exhale calmer.
Damn, how I used to love the scent of that perfume she applied every day, I think.
"Chicken."
"Chicken? But how predictable you are woman" I say in mockery and she breaks away from me, gives me a brave girl look again, and crosses her arms.
"Chicken makes me happy."
