All Chapters of Whispers of the Heart: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

My phone blared in the dead of the night, causing me to scramble from the bed as I hurried to answer it quickly so as not to wake Nate. Owen was no longer in the bed, having went back to his room as soon as I fell asleep, I would assume. Grabbing it up, I hit silence giving a brief glimpse back at the bed to make sure Nate hadn’t woken up as I rushed into the bathroom and shut the door behind me. Even before I looked at the display, I already knew who this was and what conversation was getting ready to happen. I just needed confirmation of the time it was occurring. Three forty-six in the morning. It took him that long to wake up and come around enough to miss us in the house.“Hello.” I hissed in a loud whisper as I hit the accept call button and brought the phone to my ear.“Aurora! Where the hell are you and where is my son?” His voice was strained so I knew he was angry but that it was causing him too much pain if he tried to raise his voice or get himself too worked up. That could

I opened the door and walked out, leaving it partially open again. I rapped lightly on Owen’s door as I skipped up to it and waited just a few seconds before opening it slightly. He answered for me to come on in, so I did.He was sitting at the L-shaped desk already dressed in t-shirt and jeans and it looked like he had been working on homework. He turned to look as I walked in and he quickly stood up, walking toward me to greet me in his bare feet.“You look amazing this morning, Aurora.” He said as his eyes raked up and down my body, his gaze lingering hungrily on my long legs in these black shorts. “Damn!” He said with an appreciative sigh.“You like my outfit, then?”“Yes, very much. I never imagined someone could look so casual and comfortable and still so sexy and mouthwatering at the same time but you have managed to pull it off.”“Thank you, I think.”He gave me that devilish smirk that heated my cheeks as well as sent a flush through the rest of my body. “Trust me, it was a co

Getting Nate out of bed and dressed was easy as he was super excited as soon as he woke and realized we were still at Owen’s house. As I was getting him dressed, he asked me if Owen was my boyfriend and I was glad that he did since I was thinking of how to bring it up myself. I answered him honestly and told him that, yes, Owen was my boyfriend and I asked him how he felt about that.He said he liked it. That he liked Owen and he liked seeing me look happy. He, then, went on to tell me that he hoped Owen and I got married and have seven kids. Of course, while he said this Owen walked up to the open door and heard it but he seemed pleased with Nate’s plans for us. Regardless, both of them could forget about seven kids. It wasn’t going to happen!We dropped Nate off at school with my promise of picking him back up this afternoon and reminding him to give Miss Kelly or Miss Lyndsey his note about being a car rider this afternoon. When we parked at the high school, we still had fifteen min

I left the office feeling really good about my talk with Sherry. I was so happy that I was able to improve her mood and help her to understand the current situation with Phil. I would definitely try my best to do what I could whenever Phil came back to push him toward her because he definitely needed to understand that he had burned all his other bridges and he’d better appreciation someone like her. If he liked her enough to sleep with her, regardless of his dumbass reasons, he needed to give her a chance to make him happy.I watched Owen’s face light up from over top of Vanessa’s head whenever I walked through the door of the Photography classroom. She turned at the same time that Courtney and Bethany gave me a wave.“I knew it had to be you or at least it had better be you,” Vanessa teased. “If he was suddenly looking at me like that, Danny was gonna kick his ass and if he was looking at any other girl like that, I was gonna be the one to do it! But I knew only one woman could make

“WOW!” was all I heard from Nate before he tore into the room with a giggle. Owen reached for me and pulled me to him, giving me a very sound kiss that completely distracted me from even looking and seeing what had Nate so excited about.Once Owen released me and I turned my attention back to the room itself, I was just as excited and elated as Nate was. The entire space was like any arcade or play place one would ever visit as a child on those very rare special occasions. The space of the entire room couldn’t have been any less than a thousand square feet. Wooden support beams were scattered throughout the space like typical reinforcements in a basement and it had the panel block ceilings like you would see in office buildings and hospitals with the big rectangle panel light panes. The walls were all painted a deep charcoal gray with light gray plush carpeting in part of the area and just solid concrete painted the same color in the other half.The carpeted area was more narrow but th
