His Queen, My King

Alaia's POV

I can barely wait for Nick to get back home today. Despite having somewhat of a busy day with my parents and Rita earlier, the hours seem to drag on forever.

We talked on the phone but it only made me even more earger to see him.

I asked security to let me know when he enters the building so I can be the first thing he sees when he walks through the door, a bit hackneyed, but I can't help it. He is late, so i guess he should be here any minute now.

Having finished with dinner a while ago, i am upstairs, watching a documentary about african wildlife when i finally get the call to let me know he is on his way up.

I wait a few minutes before jumping off the bed to go meet him.

Nickolas' POV

Finally, i get to go home. I contemplated cutting my work day short over a dozen times today, and if Ally had actually been home instead of visiting her parents most of today, i would have.
