Oh, it’s been a long day, pretty sad as well.

Sure you understand. Nick is on tour somewhere in the Midwest today. There’s not much doubt that yes, he would like the two of you to be together but he’s working and you’re in the last semester of your senior year.

You know he cares, there’s probably roses waiting for you at your apartment as well as a romantic card and he will probably call. It’s just that seeing all of the lovers on campus, plenty of public displays of affection, and in not planning ahead you forgot to give Nick your gift to him before he left town.

Your professors droned on in every class as if on a day like today you would actually care about accent colors! Don’t they realize the only color of interest today would be romantic red? With a heavy sigh and a tear spilling from you eye you head off campus towards your apartment.

“Buck up girl”, you tell yourself, “You knew this was a price of Nick’s fame. Deal with it! Prove to yourself and to him that you can handle this part of your relationship.”

Just off campus you hear someone call your name.

“Chloe”, you hear again. Looking up, directly into the sunlight you see a very large human (or so you think!) figure standing near a white limousine. You are completely puzzled.

“Chloe….” Now the figure is opening the door and reaching an arm out towards you. As you inch closer the sun dips behind the six-foot or higher figure and you recognize it to be Billy.

But, it can’t be Billy. Billy is Nick’s bodyguard. Billy never leaves Nicks back and Nick is on tour. A constant shadow, so if this is Billy, and Billy is opening the door to a limousine, that must mean….

“Oh my God!” you scream as a smile takes over your entire face and you start running towards the vehicle. Billy rolls his eyes and hangs his head as if to say; “Finally, she gets it.”

You stop dead, less than an arms length from Billy and look up at him with questioning eyes. He begins to laugh that deep Billy laugh and answers; “Yes” as he gently pushes you towards the door.

“Nick?” You cautiously whisper as you lean in. Yes, it’s him; you see the smile, the smile that beckons you in.

“Oh Nick!” You exclaim as you dive in towards him. Luckily his arms are open wide to receive you because the weight of your backpack plummets you forward onto Nick, the force of which sends you both to the floor! Billy continues to laugh as he closes the door behind you.

As you cover his face with kisses and tears of joy, the backpack finally wins and veers you off of Nick and onto the floor beside him. Nick can’t help but snicker; you are so cute, so excited and he’s just as happy to see you. He also finds it comical to watch you roll from side to side trying to rid yourself of the cumbersome attachment.

“Here baby, sit up” he says as he offers you a hand. “Let me help you get rid of that bad boy.”

Nick struggles to get himself up then you, with his long legs on either side of you. You’re sitting cross-legged in front of him and he leans in reaching one hand over your shoulder to lower one side of the backpack. You lean in and plant a sweet kiss on his freckled nose. He smiles as he lowers the other side and the heavy load falls to the floor behind you. You let out a sigh of relief.

He pulls you up and places you both onto the seat. You are smiling, not really believing he’s here. Nick holds both your hands in his, completely surrounding them, protecting them. Nick smiles also then licks his lips and leans in giving you a very possessive kiss.

“Oh Chloe, everyone kept saying it’s only been 10 days but I couldn’t stay away. There’s no show tonight, it’s a travel day, its Valentine’s Day, our first Valentines Day! I wanted to spend it with my Valentine!”

Tears flow from your eyes like streams to the rivers. Nick gently wipes them away with his thumbs, followed by sweet kisses, one for each teardrop.

“Oh baby,” he whispers, “please don’t cry.”

“No, no Nick”, you stutter, “they’re happy tears. I was so sad earlier, trying to be understanding, knowing it was pretty impossible for us to be together. I missed you too and seeing all the lovers on campus…but you’re here! You felt the same way, you came home to me! Oh Nick, I love you.” With that you throw your arms around his neck and give him a slobbery kiss.

“I love you so much Chloe”, Nick tries to get in between giggles and kisses. “Listen, I wanted tonight to be special, no crowds, no fans, just us. I thought the best place for peace and quiet would be at my house and….”

“Nick, that’s perfect! You know I love it at your house. It is quiet, the water near by, and the clear view of the sky.”

“Okay, great”, says Nick, getting caught up in your excitement again. “And don’t worry, I’ve ordered a special dinner from Mario’s.”

“Mmmm, my favorite man, my favorite place, and my favorite Italian food. What more could a girl ask for?” You reply as you snuggle into Nick’s chest.

“Well, I’m hoping she’ll ask for a whole lot more…later, but for now, how about this?” He asks as he presents you with one single long stemmed pink rose.

“Aaww baby,” you whisper as you reach up to give him another kiss.

The rest of the way home you two chat and catch up on what’s been going on for the last 10 days. Suddenly you both notice the vehicle as come to a stop and Billy is opening the door. He grabs your backpack, one handed with ease, and reaches out the other hand for you. Taking his hand and emerging from the limo you thank him. Then standing upright you suddenly reach up, wrap your arms around Billy’s neck, plant a big kiss on his cheek and say; “It’s really good to see you too, you know.” You then release him and bounce towards the front door.

Nick climbs out, unassisted, and laughing. He looks at a stunned Billy, pats him on the back and can’t resist saying; “Who loves you man?” Laughs again, then tries to look stern, “Just remember, she’s my girl!”

Slightly fearing for his head, Nick chases after you, and sweeps you up in his arms, twirling you around, loving the sound of your squeals.

Once inside the door, he puts you down but doesn’t release his hold on you. As you turn to face him he draws you into a warm embrace and you snuggle again against his chest.

“It’s still fairly early to eat,” he mentions. You nod in agreement.

“How does a bubble bath sound?” He asks.

You look up at him with a twinkle in your eyes; “With you?”

“Well, unfortunately, I have just a couple of phone calls I have to make. I was thinking you could go on up, get settled in, I would bring you a snack and you could relax in the tub. While you’re doing that, I’ll make my calls, and by the time you’re out and changed, I’ll be done! That way you will have my undivided attention for the rest of the night.”

“Mmm”, you ponder a moment, “Sounds fair” you say. “Your undivided attention. You promise?”

“Yes ma’am” he replies planting a kiss on your nose. “Undivided.”

“Okay, it’s the least I can do. Soak in a bubble bath for your undivided attention!” you laugh.

“But Nick, I don’t have anything nice to change into. I think all I have left here are old t-shirts and probably boxer shorts.”

“Don’t worry baby, I’m sure you can find something. Go on up, use the master bath, I’ve got it set up for you.”

You look up at him a little puzzled but know him well enough not to doubt.

“Okay.” You give him another kiss and start to pull away, but he draws you in again. He returns your kiss, his tongue entering your mouth, searching for yours. Breathlessly you manage to break away and he whispers in your ear;

“Go on up. I’ll bring you something to nibble on in just a minute.”

“Mmm….” You turn; run your fingers down his large chest with just one fingernail slipping through the space between two buttons. Unfortunately that finger meets with more cloth of the t-shirt beneath so you bring the finger to your mouth and bite down. Nick moans as he watches you walk away. As you reach the hallway he runs both hands through his hair and over his face, shaking his head as if he is trying to focus on something else other than the straining bulge in his pants, and the thought of you naked in a tub full of bubbles.

You rush into the master bath and are taken aback by the sight before you. Gone are the usual “Nick” bare necessities; a towel hanging on the rack, one bar of soap, one toothbrush, one razor, container of deodorant, and a bottle of Gravity. Instead, you see candles everywhere, on every level. The countertop, the window ledge, the edge of the tub. Hibiscus and lilies of every color all around. An ice bucket with a bottle of champagne, chilling and one glass near the tub. Several fluffy pink towels hang from the rack and an equally fluffy pink robe hanging behind the door. The familiar bottles of Victoria Secret’s Halo bubble bath, body wash, and lotion sit on one corner of the tub. Incredible amber hues flood through the windows along the top of the two outside walls

Out of nowhere two strong arms encircle your waist and you feel a warm sensual breath on the back of your neck. So lost in the splendor of the room, you did not even hear Nick come in.

“So,” he whispers in your ear, “will this get a romantic evening off to a good start?”

Turning in his arms to face him you run your hands up and down his shirt;

“Definitely” you purr. “Now if only you would join me?”

“Baby, I would love to, it’s just that a couple of things have come up with N-Control and BIK that I…”

Finally you silence him with a searing kiss, your tongue probing deep inside his mouth.

“Nick, it was not a complaint. Go, please, take care of business so that later you can take care of me.” You give him a sweeter kiss and a hug and turn towards the tub.

“Thanks sweetie. Let me help get you comfortable in here and then I’ll make those phone calls.”

Nick reaches to the countertop for the fireplace matches and begins to light the candles surrounding the tub. He then starts the water and when he feels the temperature is right, he pours in a plentiful amount of bubble bath. That task done, he sets out to light the rest of the candles. You sit down on the stool as the room is transformed even more.

The fresh floral scent of Halo fills the room as the bubbles emerge through out the tub. Nick turns off the lights and the warm glow of candlelight replaces the harsh lighting. You close your eyes and wrap your arms around yourself letting your senses take over.

You hear a faint rustling and then the sudden POP of the champagne cork. This is followed by the sloshing sound of liquid being poured into a glass and a gentle cling of glass set against marble. Silence fills the air as the rushing of water is ceased.

Your leg is being lifted slightly. Your foot placed on something wide and firm, Nick’s thigh is your guess. One sandal removed and then the other. Both feet are placed back flat on the floor and now you hear trickling water. A foot is raised again and you feel a warm wet cloth gently caressing your toes and washing the rest. That foot is returned to the floor and the act is repeated with the other one. Next another soft cloth is felt drying each foot, only to be followed by playful kisses and licks, which turn into hungry sucking and nibbling on each and every toe! Unable to resist, a moan escapes your lips and your free foot reaches out to feverishly massage Nick’s confined member, which in return releases a growl from deep within him.

Nick drops your foot from his mouth as if he were burned and his hands begin the journey up your thighs to your lower torso. There they are able to reach tender flesh. The hands begin to lift your t-shirt upwards and his lips follow with a trail of kisses. The shirt is removed over your head revealing your sheer flesh colored bra as well as your hardened nipples. Nick glides his large hands over each breast with extra attention on the nipples, until he reaches the clasp deep between the two. With a flick of his thumb and forefinger the clasp is undone and the material snaps away, freeing the points of pleasure.

You gasp at the sudden release from the restrictive material and the feel of Nick’s rough hands as he pulls the material completely off and down your arms. His arms embrace you tightly as his swollen lips softly moisten each of your nipples.

With a sigh Nick releases the embrace and takes your hand, indicating the need for you to stand. With Nick still on his knees, you place your hands on his shoulders to steady yourself. He begins to kiss your soft middle and his tongue plays with your belly button ring, the diamond stud he gave you because he said; you shine. His hands quickly undo the buttons on your shorts and then push them off your hips. They pool at your ankles. Still nibbling on your ring he reaches around and grabs his favorite “ghetto booty”. Giving the cheeks a little squeeze, Nick hears himself growl again. Finally his fingers run across a thin silky piece of material. With another sigh he backs away slightly, hooks his thumbs under the band and removes your matching sheer thong panty.

Nick touches the back of your knees, one at a time, and helps you step out of your shorts and panty. His hands run up and down the backs and the insides of your legs. One hand again grabs an ass cheek as the other one slides up your leg to the center of desire. A finger brushes against the outer lip of your vagina causing your knees to weaken. Resting his head against your stomach Nick’s hand is now gently caressing a silky smooth, bare, cleanly shaven pussy. Before too long though, his hand returns between your legs and his lips continue to caress the outside.

“Mmmm baby, so warm and wet.” Is Nick’s husky whisper and his tongue reaches down to lick up the juices dripping between your legs.

As if struck by lightening, Nick stands up, blinks his eyes and reaches for your hand. Slightly stunned you give him your hand and he leads you to the tub. You step in and Nick holds you steady as you sit down. Turning and reaching behind him, he picks up a plate of cheese and crackers with fruit. He places it on the edge of the tub and the hands you the glass of Champagne.

You raise the glass to your lips for a sip. Nick stands frozen, his glazed over eyes following the gentle rise and fall of your breasts over the bubbles. His left hand begins rubbing up and down his chest and his right hand reaches down to grab his…..

“Nick,’ you whisper, “mmm, Nick, you say again.

“Huh?” he mumbles still reaching for…

”Those phone calls;” you reply trying to hold back the giggles. “Phone calls? You had some phone calls you needed to make.”

“Huh? Yeah, mm phone calls.” He stammers as he rejoins the real world. “Okay, I’m going to go make those phone calls.” He clears his throat, left hand nervously combs through his hair, and his right hand does reach down to adjust the packaged goods. Turning and walking towards the door, he fails to get it completely opened before he tries to walk through it.

Finally, on the outside and the door closed behind him he blindly runs into Billy, chest to chest.

“Jesus Billy!” Screams Nick.

“Hey dude, you okay?” Asks Billy.

Obviously shaken, embarrassed, uncomfortable between his legs and completely blushed Nick lets out a heavy sigh.

“Man, don’t you have anything better to do than lurk around right outside my bathroom door?”

“Yeah, actually I do Nick. I came to tell you that your phone call came through; it’s waiting for you. Oh, and I’m going out, I’ve got a date. Behave yourself.” With that Billy turns and walks away before Nick can hear his laughter.

“Oh, okay, well, thanks. Oh, and yeah, have a good time.” Nick says quietly. “And don’t forget to knock before you come back in.” he hollers after Billy.
