Nathan was perturbed all through his trip, after finishing from Australia on Saturday morning, he was supposed to stop at Toronto for Gerald's engagement party. He just couldn't shake the feeling of the little boy he saw Audrey embracing. He had thoughts like; did she get married? And how come she didn't tell me about it? He knew he couldn't ask her even if he wanted to but wait, he saw Samantha could he be Sam's child? Smiling inwardly, he decided within himself that he was definitely Sam's child, a little relieved he decided to skip Gerald's engagement party as he was aching to see Audrey again... getting off an early afternoon flight, he called Gerald and apologised for not making it then promised to make it up to him. Strolling out of the airport he hailed a taxi, not sure where exactly to go in order to see Audrey he absent mindedly gave the office address. On the way, he wondered why he had to go to the office, he was a little disappointed in himself for not trying to be friendly with Audrey so he would have visited her directly...
Getting off the elevator, he concluded he'll just catch up on a little work then probably go home. He heard a loud thud from his office. Surprised, he rushed to open the door only to find Audrey alarmed and obviously in pain..
Audrey. Shocked... 'I'll so sorry... I ermmm... I wasn't expecting to see you today... I....'
Nathan. Rushing over to her... 'are you OK? Are you hurt?'
Audrey. Biting her lower lip to subdue the pain she felt from tripping on the trash can... 'I'm fine, so sorry I just came here to drop off the file...' not able to hold herself back, she started sobbing 'I forgot your file at home, I thought you wouldn't be back till Tuesday. I just wanted to bring it by today... I'm really sorry.'
Shocked, Nathan hurriedly helped her off the ground and placed her on his couch.
Nathan. Concerned.. 'that's not enough reason for you to cry' wiping her tears.. 'I wouldn't have given you a hard time if you couldn't deliver...' he didn't know how much longer he could fight off the temptation of keeping his hands to himself so he quietly stood up from seating close to her.
Audrey. Sniffing and trying to compose herself gave out a little laugh... 'I totally just embarrassed myself...' covering her face with she fingers, she sighed
Nathan. a little concerned... 'try to pull yourself together, hope you're not hurt?'
Audrey. Standing up from her sitting position... 'no, I am fine... how was your trip?'
Nathan felt a little warmth inside him, he was happy she cared about how his trip went, he walked slowly towards her with his gaze not leaving her face... she asked how his trip was, he wasn't going to tell her how he couldn't get his mind off her or how he kept imaging he was that little boy he saw her hugging or why he had to cut his trip short because he missed her...
Audrey. Cutting his fantasy short... clears her throat 'Tee, are you alright?'
Nathan was surprised to hear the name she called him, only him!!! Throwing caution to the wind, he moved closer to her, took her face in his hand and gently place his lips on hers.
Audrey was concerned with the look on Nathan's face he kept looking at her with an intensity that made her feel naked before him... confused, she blurted out the name she wasn't supposed to... when his lips met hers, she held her breath, not able to move or do anything, she let herself go. His kiss was slow and sultry and it made her feel like her heart would burst if she doesn't have more of him... she immediately pushed him away, looking at him sadly...
Audrey. Quietly. 'I have to go.' She quickly ran out before she finished her sentence...
