Chapter Ten

Emma was surprised at how much she was enjoying her time with Veronica. She had misjudged the woman. They had drove around town and ate lunch at a pizza spot on Main Street. Veronica actually seemed to be very understanding and the fact that she was a lawyer helped enormously. Emma felt comfortable telling her all the details about Lawrence and her father. She actually felt sad to head back to Nicholas’ place because god knows what kind of mood he would be in. One could never tell.

“Remember not to say anything ok?” Veronica smiled big at Emma.

“I won’t. Thank you so much. I really appreciate this.” Emma said honestly as she got out of the car.

“I got some things I need to take care of. Maybe we can do lunch again tomorrow?” Veronica smiled.

“I would really like that.” Emma said as she waved, and Veronica drove off.

Emma heard the splash on the side of the house as she got to the front door. Was Nicholas in the pool? Curiosity got the best of her as she walked around the house and there he was in all his seductive glory. He hadn’t noticed her as she watched from a distance. His long hair was wet and pushed back. His tattoos visible and his body was tanned as well as incredibly toned. He must have sensed her because a few seconds later he turned his head and looked at her. She swallowed hard as she walked over to him.

“You’re back? Was everything ok?” He couldn’t help but ask. Veronica wasn’t the easiest person to get along with. He knew that from personal experience.

“Yeah it was nice to get out.” She fidgeted with her hands some. “I was wondering if I could talk to you about getting a job here.” She added as he began to get out of the pool. The sight of water dripping from his nearly naked body was a sight to see. He wore shorts that clung to his body deliciously. She tried not to stare at him. He grabbed a towel and proceeded to wipe off his body.

“A job?” He asked as he looked over at her.

“Yeah. I have been studying Forensics. Well I was back in my town.” She said nervously as she looked at him.

“Forensics?” He said in shock.

“Yeah. I was hoping I could get a job at the local police department and since you run everything here.” She began as he ran his hand through his long hair.

“Yeah I don’t think that is going to work out. I think that Mary over at the quick mart could use another cashier.” He said quickly.

“A what? Yeah, I don’t want to do that. I was studying Forensics.” She said as she watched him put a shirt on.

“And I said there is a cashier job available.” He said seriously as he looked at her.

“Is there a reason why I can’t work at the station?” She asked with confusion.

“Besides the fact that I said no? The station has enough people.
