I melt with  you - Modern English

———

The raven-haired woman wakes to feel a pair of lips against hers, without thinking and with her eyes still closed, Paige clumsily places her arms around her fiance neck, bringing him closer to her.

-Well, thats a good way to wake up- The English says when she feels her fiance separate from her.

The two-toned laughs.

-I only prepare you for the rest of our lives.

Paige opens her eyes to find her fiance over her, holding his body with his arms so he couldn't crush her, while looking at her with tenderness, which made the English woman melt.

She loved the way those brown eyes looked at her.

-You have bad breath- Seth says after a few seconds of silence.

The raven-haired woman rolls her eyes -It's your fault, you forced me to eat that taco last night.

Seth gives a loud laugh and moves away from his fiancee, letting her see how elegant he was that morning.

-Well, that's not for another of your surprises, right?- Says the English woman sitting up in bed.

-You don't like it?- Asks the smiling man.

-Of course I do, you're like a version of Johnny Depp, but more hot.

-Only you can compare me to Johnny Depp- Seth lets out another laugh and goes to his fiancee to take her face and plant another kiss in her lips.

-Hunter wants me to accompany him to a meeting today- The man says almost in a whisper.

-Ohh... that's unexpected- Says the English woman.

-Yeah... it's weird even for me- Says the two-toned -But he's like my father and I think he's still trying to buy me, but don't worry, I'm all yours- He says kissing his fiancee's lips again.

After a few seconds, they separate.

-Baby you don't have to leave it for me, if you're interested we can talk about it- The pale woman says with sincerity in her eyes.

Seth smiles from ear to ear -We'll do it, see you later.

Giving a last and final kiss to his fiancee, Seth prepares to leave the room -Oh almost forgot something- He says sticking his head through the door -My mother wants to have lunch with you today, alone.

-Yes captain- Says the English woman doing a military salute.

The bicolor winks and disappears from the sight of his fiancee.

Paige lets out a long sigh and lets herself fall back onto the bed.

That same morning, the English woman had approached her mother-in-law, ready to go out for an elegant lunch, since Seth had told her that her mother was very exquisite about the places she frequented.

Both women arrived at the luxurious restaurant, the English would still have trouble getting used to so many luxuries.

A waiter escorted them to their table, which has an incredible view of all Manhattan. Paige couldn't stop seeing that view, she loved it.

-You like it?- Asked the brunette smiling.

-Yes, it's beautiful- Says the Englishwoman.

-Seth told me you paint, tell me, you have succeed in that?

Stephanie was acting very weird since the last time they had gone out together, she smiled all the time and seemed to want to know more about her future daughter-in-law.

-Yeah, well, it's difficult, I've only sold five paintings in my life, but it's not the only thing I do.

-Oh seriously- Stephanie feigning amazement -What other things you do?

-Well, Seth and I work part time in all the countries and cities that we visit, we have worked in bars, hotels, casinos...

-Such adventurous you two- Says the brunette forcing a smile.

The English woman releases a small laugh.

-And you two never had problems? I guess with three years of relationship there had to be something.

The raven-haired woman has not seemed strange to her question. Stephanie was a mother after all, only worried about her son and in what kind of relationship he was involved.

-The truth is we don't argue so much, we don't get to the point to scream at each other, only once when we were both drunk.

-What happened?- Stephanie asks.

The English woman hesitates to tell her, but decides to do it, she thought that the more sincere she was with her future mother-in-law, the more they will get along.

-It was nothing really, I only saw him dancing with another girl and I just explode- Says the pale woman holding her laughter.

That night had been very crazy, they were not even a couple when that had happened. At that time they were in Las Vegas, both had coincided in the same flight and same hotel. The night was young and they were both single. They had collide into each other more then one time in the dance floor and the English woman loved it.

-Paige, you still here?- Stephanie says, taking her from her memories.

-Oh, yes, I'm sorry.

The pale woman had realized that their order was already on the table.

-So tell me Paige, how much is it worth?- Says the brunette after taking a sip of wine.

-Come again?- Asked Paige confused.

-How much it's worth for you to get away from my son- Stephanie says looking her straight in the eyes.

Paige had thought or at least tried to convince herself that the tension she felt with her mother-in-law was for the simple fact that they did not know each other and both were shy to take the first step, but no, she was wrong, the brunette woman wanted her out of the life of her son, her only son.

-Look I had my little baby at an very young age, my family kick me out and I would be completely alone if it wasn't for Seth's dad, but then Seth's father died in a traffic accident...

-And then you met Hunter and hung on his money, I know the story Steph- Says the English woman looking at her serious.

-Of course you do- Says the brunette smiling forcibly - Therefore you know that I am very protectiv with my son and that I will not let anyone hang on his money.

-I don't think you have to worry about me being like you, believe me- Says the pale woman annoyed.

Something was true, if the looks could killed the younger woman would be three feet underground.

-Are you sure? I heard that you have a very big family in England, that your brother is unemployed and your father is very sick.

-Well, that was enough- Says the English woman -Believe me when I tell you that I love your son, I met him not knowing where he came from, I love everything about Seth and money is not one of those things, maybe the good he is in bed be the reason- Paige says smiling.

-Hoe- Says the brunette looking at her with hate.

-Perhaps- Paige stands up -But your son loves that side of me.

The English woman takes cash out of her purse and throws it on the table -I think our little meeting ends here.

Without saying anything else, the raven-haired beauty gets out from that restaurant, not knowing where she would go or how she would return to the mansion, but something was clear, she would not spend another second with that woman.

-I don't think I can take it anymore Brie- Says the older twin serving another glass of wine.

The brunette had decided to move out of her sister's house a week ago, as she had raised enough money for it.

It had not been easy, she had become accustomed to the laughter of her brother-in-law, the constant complaints of Brie when she returned from work and discovered that neither of them had done anything and the little pet Josie. Nicole had taken her so much affection.

-What are you talking about? About you moving alone or your job?- Asks his sister on the other side of the line.

-Both- Nicole says after taking a sip of her wine -I miss you guys like crazy and Alicia is getting more and more crazy.

-And what happened with him?- Asks the younger twin with a mischievous tone.

-For Gods sakes Brie, is the boyfriend of my boss- Nicole says almost laughing.

-That doesn't stop that whenever you talk to me, you talk about him.

The brunette rolls her eyes with a smile.

Yes, Nicole couldn't stop talking about her boss's boyfriend, call her a hoe, but she just couldn't, the man was too attractive for not talk about him.

-He takes her another coffee this morning, he was as hot as always- Says the older twin.

Brie laughs on the other side of the line.

-You're a bitch.

Nicole laughs with her.

-It's not my fault that the man is so hot.

Nikki listens to a second voice speak and knows is her sister's husband.

-Nicole I have to go, Daniel is only in boxers.

-Eww, groos- Says the older twin trying to hold back a laugh.

Nikki cuts the call and sips her wine.

She didn't want to admit it, but she felt lonely. After thinking that her sister was about to have wild sex and finding out not many days ago that her younger brother would be a father for the first time. The older twin felt lonely.

She didn't do anything interesting with her life other than going to work and going back to her apartment.

Nicole lets out a long sigh and looks at her glass of wine.

Without thinking twice, Nicole goes to her room, looking for something more appropriate to go out into the streets and in less than 5 minutes, the brunette was already on his way out of her apartment.

Nicole had never explored New York since she moved, she had neither the time nor the strength.

The older twin walks blocks and blocks, until she finds a bar that quickly catches her attention.

In less than a minute, the brunette had already made her way among the people until she reached the bar and took a seat.

-One whiskey please- Says the female.

The bartender nods and places a small glass on the bar, then spills a stream of whiskey on it.

-Leave the bottle please- Says the older twin.

The bartender nods again and disappears from his sight.

Nicole had spent the last 30 minutes drinking the whiskey as if it were water, nothing seemed to matter to the older twin, not even the fact that she had to go to work tomorrow morning.

-Nicole! - The brunette frowns her eyes upon hearing her name.

Nikki turns her head to meet her two co-workers.

-Lana!- Says the smiling older twin, happy to see a familiar face.

Both co-workers finish approaching, being in front of the chestnut.

-What are you doing here so late and on a work day?- Says the blonde looking at her with a huge smile on her face.

-I was bored, I just moved and couldn't stand being locked in those four walls- Confies the brunette -What are you guys doing here?

-Oh, poor Tom is down- Says the blonde.

-What happened?- Asks the older twin -Does it have to do with Fox?

The man in front of her nodded.

Nikki frowned her eyes, she had never seen Tom in that state.

-Today Tom tried to make his "move" with the boss, it went badly- Lana says.

Nicole choked on the sip of whiskey she was swallowing, making her throat burn and start coughing like crazy.

-You like Foxy?!- Says the brunette recovering from her coughting

-Why do you think I stand her complaints without reason all day- Tom says.

-Because do you work for her?- Says the brunette, unsure of her response.

The man just rolls his eyes.

-I'm sorry, but if this is the first time you try and Fox didn't react that bad, you may be able to try again.

-You're joking right, you didn't see her boyfriend- Tom says.

Nicole is silent.

-Of course Nicole saw him, she saw him very well- Lana says between laughs.

The brunette only rolls her eyes.

-Who wouldn't look at that man- Nicole defends herself.

Lana nods her head, agreeing with her co-worker, while Tom just rolls his eyes with a small smile.
