She moans against my lips, breaking the kiss.
I kiss a path down her neck, to her cleavage. Her sweet smell fills my senses, and I forget the world around us.
Suddenly, the elevator opens and she freezes in my arms.
Her eyes widen, as she pushes me away from her, and her cheeks turn bright red as realizations hits her. "Oh, God," she whispers, walking out of the elevator without facing me, and running to the exit.
Fuck. This can't be good.
This isn't why I came after her, but being this close to her without touching her was becoming unbearable, and when she faced me without reservation, I lost it. I just couldn't make myself stay from her.
Going back to my place, I find Clare with Winston.
"Did you find her?" she asks.
I shake my head.
She looks disappointed, but if I tell her that I did find Diana, she'll start asking questions, and that's the last thing I need right now.
Taking Winston in my arms, I rest my head against his. I need to focus. Winston should be my biggest priority right now. I can't get distracted by Diana, even if somehow she makes me want things I never even thought about before.
Chapter 5
Diana
What the hell was I thinking, kissing Kevin? That's the last thing that should be on my mind.
I need to find a way to get into Winston's life. I could tell Kevin that I'm his nephew, but I'm afraid that he'll try to make me stay take the kid. If Hannah finds out I have Winston, she'll probably use that to try to get money from me, and I barely can pay my bills. I don't need her trying to exploit me again.
Being unemployed gives me a lot of free time, so I scroll through my phone looking for a new job while I sit close to Kevin's building, waiting for a chance to see Winston.
At some point, his new nanny will take him out of the house. There are a couple of playgrounds around this area, and sooner or later, she'll have to leave the house.
Or that's what I'm hoping for.
It's been almost a week since I had my interview and Kevin and I shared that kiss in the elevator, and my mind has been divided between my wish to be closer to Winston and my desire to see Kevin again.
The building's door opens, and I see the new nanny getting out with a stroller. Winston is right there.
I follow them at a safe distance, not wanting to scare the nanny. Just like I was expecting, she takes Winston to the closest playground.
She takes a seat next to some of the other nannies there, checking on Winston in his stroller a couple of times while she talks.
After a while, I see her turning her back to the stroller, and my heart starts beating fast as I try to control the will to run over there and scream at her for not paying attention to my nephew.
Some kids play football nearby, and I watch while some of the kids start playing closer to where the nannies are with the newborn babies.
Fuck! They aren't even aware of the dangers surrounding them.
One of the kids kicks the ball with too much strength, sending it flying in Winston's direction.
"Look out!" I scream, running in his direction.
One of the kids tries to catch the ball but hits Winston's stroller before falling to the ground next to hit.
The nannies all surround the kid, helping him stand and making sure he's fine.
I'm still running in their direction when the stroller starts moving down the path towards the road.
