Part 4

That night was another long incredible evening for the two couples. They talked for hours like they were old friends, telling stories about their childhoods, families and friends. Josh and Jeffrey were shocked to hear what sad childhoods the sisters had. Their parents died when they were very young and had to move in with a family friend because their real family wanted nothing to do with them because of who their father was, and that Megan, whom they lived with was a drunk and used the girls like they were slaves. But at the age of twelve they ran away and lived on the streets until a Nun from a Catholic boarding school took them in and they stay there until they were eighteen. When they Left the Boarding house they got jobs at the local dinner and paid their way through College, and when they had graduated two years early from a six year degree, they both got offered a job at a high end firm where the quickly moved up the ladder which that lead to their current job of taking down big corporations that were trying to take over small towns.
Now most of what they told Josh and Jeffrey was true, their parents did die when they were young, but they were Secret Agents as well and they were killed while on a case. They did live with a horrible friend of their parent but it wasn't because their family didn't want them. It was because no one know who or where their family was. They did run away at twelve and did live on the streets until a Nun took them in. They did go to college and graduate really early but they didn't have to work at a dinner to pay for it, the agency actually pay for it, that was one of the perks of joining them. So not everything was a lie but the girls felt horrible, but it was all for the job and soon it would be over.
Josh and Jeffrey escorted Delilah and Kailey home just as the sun was coming up, but no one felt the effects of two sleepless nights. They were so lost in each other that nothing seemed to bother them. As they said another dreaded goodbye Jeffrey placed the sweetest, most gentle kiss on Kailey cheek.
"Call me tonight?" Kailey fearfully asked as she looked into his gorgeous green eyes.
"I will call you every night from now until forever, if that's what you want." Jeffrey whispered in her ear.
"I think I'd like that." Kailey whispered back before placing a kiss on his cheek.
He than opened her door for her and closed it behind her.
Josh took Delilah's hand in his, raised
it to his lips and placed a soft gentle kiss upon it.
"Would you mind if I called you later?" asked Josh
"I'd like that." Delilah replied as her heart began to flooder.
"I can't wait."
Josh took her key out of her hand, opened her door and slowly closed it behind her after giving her back her key.
Josh turned to Jeffrey who was still standing at Kailey's door just staring at it.
"You've got it bad."
Jeffrey remained silent
"Oh my god Jeffrey, you have fallen hard for this woman."
"Huh, what?" Jeffrey said as he finally realized Josh was talking to him.
"You are hopeless, you know that." Josh laughed as he slapped him on the arm
"What are you talking about?"
"I know that look Jeffrey, you have fallen for this woman. You didn't take your eyes off her all night long and now your staring at her door."
"I don't know what it is Josh, There's just something about her. I just can't get her off my mind."
"I know the feeling but remember what we said."
"You my be able to take thing slow but I can't help it. She's amazing, and smart, and gentle, and strong, and......"
"Stop, stop right there. We agreed that we would take our time and not let our hearts lead us."
"Oh come on Josh, are you going to tell me that you feel nothing for Delilah."
"That is not what I'm saying, Not at all but I have a little self control, unlike you." laughed Josh
"Yeah well, self control is way over rated." Jeffrey laughed back
"Come on, I'll buy you breakfast," Josh said as he grabbed Jeffrey's arm and drug him to the elevator.
