《Taking My Heart (Completed)》12. That Voice
Advertisement
I wonder sometimes if I want more in life. Then again the only reason that started coming up in my head was due to Shane.
Another couple of days has past since we spoke over the phone. It wasn't until we lost signal that I realized I had stupidly used my personal cell. Not that I truly care after the panic from the first few minutes had settled.
Lola and Jovi has been little snickering the last day and then again today. Neither of them are speaking a word though, which is partially driving me crazy.
Nothing good ever comes when they get together on something. Normally, it is around the holidays they act like this.
With the last fur patient in with Jovi, I clean over the front area.
"Who is staying tonight?" Lola asks softly.
"Either Jovi and or myself. There is a couple of them in the kennels that has to monitored closely." I look over to her.
Lola smiles and nods. "I think I'm going to spend time with Gram once I leave here. Mom is working tonight."
"Yeah she called earlier during lunch and told me about that. Apparently, one of her co-workers called out and she wants to take the shift."
"Tell me how our mom can work sixteen hours like that." Lola laughs.
I laugh with her. "That is something I would like to know also because I would need a small cat nap."
"Wow pun much Samantha." Jovi laughs coming out of the room and going behind the desk.
"Need help Jovi?" Lola looks behind to him.
"Nah, just getting the heartworm chewable for the pit." Jovi chuckles.
Jovi grabs a box and goes back to the room.
"What are you two up to anyways?" I hold the broom and stare at Lola.

"I have no clue what you're talking about." She shrugs.
"First off you two have been snickering more and then on top of that laughing more too. We are all bubbly and laughing people but you both have been a little over the top. Also, you are fidgeting behind the counter with how your shoulders are moving right now." I smirk, my sister knows I caught her.
Lola takes a deep breath and smiles. She looks out the window before facing me again.
"You'll see." Lola smirks right back.
Dang it! Here I thought I caught her enough to just tell me.
One thing I tend to not be is a person with much patience.
"Does it help if I say you will probably like what Jovi and I have done? Plus it is much cheaper." Lola gives me a sly look.
"Maybe?" I still stand holding the broom with one hand.
"Just don't get me with the bristles please." Lola squeals.
One thing that has always scared my sister is the bristles on a broom. It started when she was a toddler and she never got over it. Honestly I think it's because mom used to tell us the germs and dirties gets swept by it.
I roll my eyes and go back to sweeping.
"I wouldn't be that mean with us still having someone here."
A few minutes later, Jovi comes out with the owner and patient.
"Okay so Roco here done had his treatment for this month by I wrote on the box the next doses he needs a chewable." Jovi goes over the normal with the sweet looking grandpa.
"Thank you, young man." The man nods.
"Lola here will get you checked out and then you guys will be set." Jovi pats his shoulder.
Lola takes over and checks the guy out. Within a few minutes the man is ready to go and I step over to hold the door open for him.

The sound of a semi catches my attention right as the older man makes it to his truck and gets his baby inside. Looking up, I notice the semi is blue but can't tell anything else with the distance it still is.
I go back inside and both of them were whispering but stop immediately.
"I think our large shipment is here." I let them know and go back to sweeping.
About once every other month we get a large shipment of supplies for the clinic. Although, I thought it was a white truck that brought it.
My heart flutters slightly, hoping it is Shane. I feel like it is wishful thinking just because I could tell it was a blue truck. At the distance though could be possible I was seeing things.
What does this even mean with me wishing to see Shane again? How could he break through my barrier around my heart enough for me to even be this way?
"Shipment is here." Lola confirms.
Jovi and her both are quick to run to the back. They get like little kids everytime it comes in and between them both everything is out of the truck and put up within an hour or so. It has gotten to where I just stick to cleaning and if there is an issue they just let me know before the driver leaves, so all I do is sign off the paperwork at the end.
I make up a few piles but Oreo decides to sniff right in one and sneeze which makes it go everywhere before I can put it in the pan.
"Oreo." I laugh lightly.
Looks like I have to sweep that up again. He can be a little goofball at times but he is still my baby.
There is a quiet rumble of chatter coming from the back from both Lola and Jovi. I know the driver must be around somewhere but I guess he is staying outside since I don't hear another voice.
Fluffier jumps off the chair he was resting in and seems to prance towards the back. Oreo following a second later with his ears perked up. Both probably looking to get a goodie, since Lola will slip them something each when we get a shipment. Sometimes I wonder how my two babies are overweight.
I turn around and move the broom over the floor once more.
"I'm looking for a Ms. Heed." A deep voice speaks up behind me.
I know that voice!
Spinning on my heels, I crash into the person but he is lower to be at my head level. Which leads to us being face to face and right as I was ready to reply it gets caught in my throat.
I'm not sure how it happened exactly but my lips have landed on Shane's. They are so warm and soft. How can a guys lips be so soft? A soft moan leaves me as it feels like heaven.
My brain clicks and I pull back, moving a hand over my mouth.
I just kissed Shane!
It was better than any of my dreams ever made it out to be. There is a large part of me thay wants more all of a sudden and it is not just wanting him as a one time deal.
A/N---
Hey Hey Guys!!!
Surprise!
An quick accidental kiss still counts as a first kiss right?
Considered she seemed to enjoy it and want more?
Is Samantha starting to understand her feelings more?

I will not, nor will do anything you says!" "Very well, take both of them." As the guards start approaching them, the maid struggled as she watched her lady get taken. "This is nonsense! Lady Francheska did nothing wrong!" "Nothing wrong..." the man repeated, turning to the Lady held by two guards, he spoke what led the situation.
