CHAPTER 15

Natalie

“Natalie, dear? Are you awake?”

I groggily opened my eyes, for a moment, thinking I was hearing Colt’s voice. Yet, when my eyes refocused, I felt his body pressed against mine, and heard his gentle snores.

I sat bolt-upright in bed, realizing that Jones was back to resume his regular shift with me.

Which meant Colt was clearly due to be back with my father.

Jones’ voice drifted through the house again, and I heard him making a stop in the kitchen.

“Oh my god…Colt! Colt! Get up! Wake up!” I hissed, nudging him.

His eyes flickered open and he smiled. “Morning, beautiful,” he said, his voice still heavy with sleep.

“No. Get up! Get out! Jones is here!”

Colt swore and then covered his mouth with his hand. In a flash, he jumped out of the bed, stark naked. He grabbed his bag and bolted down the hall to the guest bedroom. I too, jumped out of bed and searched desperately for some clothing to put on. I found an old oversized t-shirt and sweat pants to jump into.

My heart racing, I left my bedroom and headed to the kitchen.

Jones stood at the stove. “Good morning, sunshine,” he said. “Did you have a good night?”

“Good morning, Jones. Yes, I had a good night. I practically fell asleep as soon as you left. I hadn’t even realized Colt was here,” I said, hoping he wouldn’t notice the way my cheeks flushed.

“Yeah. I didn’t know he would be here either, to be honest. He showed up letting me know that we were to switch positions for the night. I wanted to let you know, but the last time I peeked out at you sitting by the pool, you’d been taking a little snooze. So I told him to make sure you got back in the house safely before you caught a cold out there.”

I nodded. “Yeah. He came to get me and I turned in early for the night.”

“That’s good. Are you hungry? I bought some bacon and eggs to help get your morning started. Or would you prefer pancakes?”

“Just eggs will be fine.”

“Is Colt awake yet? He’s due to be back with your father soon.”

“I’m not sure,” I said, looking around the house as if I didn’t know where Colt was. “I haven’t seen him this morning yet.”

As if right on cue, Colt appeared. “Oh—good morning, everyone,” he said, fully dressed. He exchanged a secretive glance with me, and I hurriedly averted my gaze.

“Morning, Colt. You better hurry and get to the Speaker’s house. I’ll take things from here. You want some breakfast before you go? I’ve got eggs and bacon.”

“No thanks. I’m good,” Colt said. He nodded to us both. “See you later.”

“Good bye, son,” Jones said.

“Good-bye,” I said. Colt winked at me when Jones’ back was turned, and then headed for the door.

How I hated seeing him leave. I already wondered how much longer it would be before I saw him again.

I sighed.

“Something wrong, sweet-pea?” Jones said, stirring the eggs.

I shook my head. “No. Just uhm…Another long day of studying ahead for me.
