1:30 P.M.
It was time the prodigal son came home. Even if it was forcefully.
Carrying a fussy baby Grace through the ground level of the Benson home, Willa heard the garage doors open. Stressed out by Grace's screaming fit made her pace the carpet changing scenery every few minutes.
"Sweetie my ears can only handle so many decibels. Relax! Did you hear that? Daddy's home. Maybe your big ole brother too. Dry those eyes so you can give them a big ole smile when they come in. Okay?"
Of course that didn't work.
Bouncing her on her hip, Willa awaited the entry door to the garage eagerly. She hoped that Nick might rescue her from Grace's deaf grip.
Five minutes linger before the door opens. Leading the way to her surprise was Nick's son Jesse. Jesse stood five foot six, 150 pounds, with dark wavy hair, short but not too short. Willa was caught off guard by his good looks. The photo's around the home were obviously outdated.
Stopping short Jesse quickly noticed the beauty of Willa Pryce. As eyes met he could only freeze in the doorway and gape his jaw. Willa tried to smile but Grace's torment made that impossible.
Behind Jesse stepped Nick who cleared his throat, "Are we going inside or moving to the garage?"
Jesse was then nudged by his father to force his way in and shut the door.
"What's all this crying about? Did someone not get her beauty sleep?" He steps in to procure his daughter from a frustrated Willa.
"I'm not certain why she's so fussy. I gave her a bath and as I dried her off she lost it. I've been dealing with this for thirty minutes."
Jesse hadn't stopped staring at Willa the entire time. This made Willa uneasy at first. She maintained most of her attention toward Nick and Grace.
"Is it possible she got water in her ear? Obviously, not her eyes."
"Definitely not her eyes. No soap or shampoo got near them. Ear's maybe. I never thought of that."
Nick pouts toward Grace, "Let Daddy save your life. Let's go upstairs and fix this right up."
He then turns toward Jesse with a scowl, "Take your bag to your room. Afterwards you have thirty minutes to eat and say hi to the new Nanny. Thirty minutes! Back to your room for the night. No television. No video games. No music. Am I clear?"
Jesse trembles at his father's stern attitude yet hadn't left his gaze drift from Willa.
"Yes." He started to stutter as Nick snapped his fingers for Jesse to lead the way. The only way Nick could break his son's trance. Jesse finally moved ahead and went to his room.
"If he misbehaves you let me know. Thirty minutes is all he gets. I'll monitor his time and let him know. You made a wise choice by the way."
"How so?" She peaks an eye brow.
Nick looks down at her attire. She was wearing her Bear's jersey and white leggings down to her mid calves. As Willa realized his meaning she grins.
"I felt sporty today. I didn't think you would want me to wear boy shorts and a tank top." She shook her tits swiftly, "No bra though. Hope that's okay."
Nick smirks, "A gentle tease won't hurt. Now, Grace needs to be my priority. Come upstairs after Jesse goes to his room. You can take over with Grace again. I need to work on that beach volleyball chapter."
She fans herself with her hand, "I haven't stopped thinking about all of yesterday. Go!"
Nick calmly moves away kissing on baby Grace in hopes to calm her cries.
At the top of the stairs Jesse met Nick. Jesse snuck in a peck to Grace's cheek, "I love you little sister." He then darted downstairs leaving Nick to scowl. He knew Jesse used Grace as a shield to avoid Nick giving him any further grief.
Nick took Grace to the bathroom and did his best to drain any lingering water from her ear.
Downstairs Jesse ran into Willa as soon as he hit the kitchen. Literally. Their chests crushed together forcing both of them to blush and step back in a hurry.
"Sorry." She lowers her gaze.
"I'm not. Well I mean it was by accident. But, wow! You're beautiful."
"Thanks." She fidgets with a slight redness in her cheeks, "Keep in mind though, I'm the Nanny. I'm expected to be professional."
He shrugs, "Whatever. You're still hot."
As he moves to the refrigerator he gathers up lunchmeat, mayo, cheese, and lettuce placing them on the counter. Willa assisted by getting a loaf of bread out of the bread box next to her.
"Thanks." He opens the bread, "You're not wearing a bra."
Willa hesitates raising a brow, "You noticed when we collided."
"No. Well, yeah. Your jersey has tiny little holes in it. I see skin beneath."
She pulls her shirt out to examine it, "Oops! I'm shocked your dad didn't tell me to change. It slipped my mind when I put it on. Anyways, you shouldn't be so observant."
"Yeah, that's impossible. Hand me a knife since you're blocking the drawer."
She jumps realizing that she was indeed, and opens it for him to get his own knife.
"So. I'm sure your dad told you my name, but I'm Willa."
"I'm horny. But you can call me Jesse."
She rolls her eyes, "I can see you're going to be a hand full."
He stops and pats his crotch, "Two hands."
Staring at the young man for his arrogance she absorbs his demeanor as her jaw drops, "Not going there. Get your mind out of the gutter."
"For now. I'm really shy." He puts up a good front.
She smirks and moves across the room to the French doors leading out to the deck and swimming pool. In doing so the brightness of the sun surrounding her silhouette made Jesse wince to stare at her. She ignores him leaving him to build his sandwich.
As she stood there she presumes he's still watching by the silence of his actions. She then lifts the jersey she wore up in front of her belly, patting it. As it pulled higher over her ass her white leggings became semi transparent due to the sun creeping through the micro thin fabric. He squinted to notice that she wore no panties. Her leggings were so snug and form fitting that her bare ass and crack were visible. He literally dropped his knife on the kitchen floor.
As it clattered Willa turned still showing off her belly button briefly.
"Need a clean knife?" She frowned.
"Naaaa! I'll rinse it. I just saw your ass."
She feigns ignorance that the lighting exposed so much and rolls her eyes. She knew exactly what the sun did to the fabric over her tanned flesh.
"You don't give up do you? I'm only going to tell you once more. I'm the Nanny. Not your girlfriend. Not your play toy. I like this job and I intend to keep it. As long as you're home we need to keep these flirtations under control."
"Then stop teasing me."
"I'm not." She knew she was, so did he. But, it was fun to insist she wasn't.
"If you say so. Chicago Bears suck by the way. Chargers rule."
"I like my Bears. I'm from Chicago. Gotta support my home team."
He takes a bite out of his sandwich as he grabs a can of Mountain Dew from the fridge, popping it open.
Willa changes tactics, hoping for a hint of real emotions from the eighteen year old rogue, "Do you miss your Mom? Way over in Israel."
"That where Mom's at now? Cool. Yeah, I guess I miss her. You miss your family?"
"Yes and no. I love it out here. Mom's so busy with modeling and her charity work that this past year I barely saw her. I was in college for a year too. My step-dad I think I saw more than Mom."
"Where's your real dad?" He plays along.
"No clue. I never knew him. He and Mom never married. She didn't want me to know him."
