"Who was that with her ?" Tatiana put down her phone.
Jack chuckled, "That was Eric's voice "
"Eric ? who is that ?"
"My friend, his also my assistant manager at the company," he said.
"So how did Patricia get to be with him ? am confused".
"He was with me last night and also met Patricia when he came over to your place to get you "
"Something is fishy, let me wait for her to get here," she said.
Jack got out of bed, "Let's go take a shower together " he said.
"Okay, but I still want to know why you took me here instead of my place ".
Pushing the covers away from her, "I felt your place wasn't safe anymore, here no one can take you away without my knowledge "
She giggled as he carried her up, "Are you going I lock me up, I won't be with you everywhere ".
"Don't provoke me, Tati?".
"What did I do, am saying the truth. Here yes you can protect me but when I leave am on my own ".
"I can make it happen," he said.
"Make what happen ?"
"Be with you everywhere you go, so I can protect you ".
She laughed as he closed the bathroom door.
..
His parents were in the garden when they came downstairs.
"Tatiana " she called and got up.
Tatiana walked up to Jack's mother hugging her, "Mother ".
"Hello sweetie, how are you," she said with concern in her eyes.
"Am okay, mother ".
"We heard what happened from Bob, we are sorry it happened to you dear," his father said.
"Am really okay, father. Am thankful Jack was there to protect me " she said.
"He had to, we didn't want to lose our daughter before she even becomes our daughter-in-law. We are happy your okay " his mother hugged her again.
They sat down in the garden and had breakfast.
"So when do you both plan to set the date ?" his mother asked
Jack smiled while Tatiana glared up at him.
"It's all up to Tati, I don't want to pressure her," he said.
"Oh, no sweetie don't be pressured. We have always wanted our son to settle down and after he introduced you we knew it was time " his mother said.
"But if you feel pressured we can move at your pace " his father added.
She felt embarrassed now, "It's not that mom and Dad, I just wanted to get to know more about Jack before we can set the date. We had just got together when he proposed so I was surprised "
"Take all the time you need but you have to promise us that the next family dinner you will attend so we can introduce you to the family. Last night we failed to do it " his father said.
"I promise father, am glad you see me capable of being your daughter-in-law" she smiled.
They left them after breakfast, they were heading somewhere and promised to bring her presents.
Tatiana looked up at Jack, "Why are your parents so nice and understanding to me..unlike you " she said.
"Maybe because they don't know me as I do," he said
"And what do you know about me that they don't "
"I know that you have a sharp tongue, short-tempered and love me so much" he kissed her neck.
"Who said I love you " she pushed him away.
He grabbed her waist nesting his lips in her neck, "The moans of my name last night proved it "
She felt her face blush, as the actions of last night clouded her mind.
Turning to face him, "That wasn't me but the drugs in my system "
He smiled bending to her mouth, "Really " he leaned them on the garden tree.
"Yes ".
His hand was under her dress, "Then let's check if you will scream loud now " kissing her. She held his neck letting his tongue inside her mouth, feeling him sneaking his fingers to hold her knickers at the centre.
"Stop it, we are in the open you pervert " she breathed.
He chuckled, "Trust me, no one can see us here "
She moaned as his fingers pulled at the fabric putting pressure on her sex. Kissing her more passionately, she moved to grip his hand away carelessly pushing down her already wet knickers.
He smirked, "Tati, you're driving me crazy " his hand opened his pants while the other held her up.
Before long she was moaning his name begging him to do deeper, the echo of their morning lovemaking vibrated through the tree as she kept casting off leaves.
