Part 5.

Early the following morning I feel Nathan gently moving to get out of bed, sure the movement should have woken me from my slumber, but I am just so damn tired right now that I could probably sleep through an atomic bomb blast.

A little while later and my nose picks up the astonishing aroma of bacon and eggs, I slowly raise my head from the pillow just in time to see Nathan walking into the room carrying a large tray.

"Ok Dean, time for you to get your strength back, now I want you to sit up and lean against the headboard and I will lower the tray down onto your lap. Now heed me, Dean Wilder, I want every morsel of this breakfast eaten."

Wow, breakfast in bed, have I died and gone to heaven, maybe not, but one thing is for certain, I have found a truly heavenly boyfriend. I do as Nathan asks and slowly lean my back against the headboard of the bed; Nathan then puts the tray gently down onto the bed so that he can adjust the sheets to cover my modesty, with the sheet adjustment complete he then picks the tray up and then gently lowers it down onto my lap.

As I start to tuck into the bountiful feast Nathan gently climbs up onto the bed and then lies by my side, I know that it sounds cliché but at this particular moment in time I feel so loved, protected and warm, and I'm almost sure that I can hear my mother's hushed voice from afar telling me to get on with my life.

With the hearty breakfast now over I decide that my mother is right, I can't sit around and mope over what has happened, it will not change things. I feel my life force returning; slowly I feel my depression ebb away.

I sit there digesting my food and I look towards Nathan, the sunlight that shines through his bedroom window hits his fur in just the right way, and right at this moment he couldn't look any more beautiful, he is an absolute god, I would even call him an Adonis, and it's now that I begin to see Nathan as the man that I want to spend the rest of my life with, I make my decision right then and there, I'm going to live and love with Nathan.

"Nathan, you have been what I consider as the very essence of a true lover, if your offer to allow Tango and I move into your gorgeous home still stands, then I would like to take you up on it, it's time that I start living again and there is only one that I want to share my life and love with, and that is you, Nathan."

A smile slowly graces Nathan's muzzle as his brain registers what I have just said. Nathan jumps out of bed and thumps the air with his fist, his cute Doberman tail is wagging so fast if it were a hot day I wouldn't need air conditioning.

I slowly get out of bed and get dressed ready for the day ahead, I then help Nathan clean up the breakfast things and I give him a gentle kiss on his muzzle, he then wraps his arms around my waist.

"Okay babe, there is nothing more that I would love to do than stay here and grope my new boyfriend's beautiful ass, but we have plenty of time for that, for now, we have to start sorting things out and the first thing to do is to go and collect your car from your old place, now I know that it will hit you hard seeing the destruction again, but it will only take a few minutes, plus it will give me chance to give your old neighbour my name, address, and phone number. I have no doubt that at some point in the future the authorities will need to contact you with a view to your mother's estate."

I nod gently and a single tear comes to my right eye.

"Hey now Dean, you are so much stronger than that, oh sure it will hurt you badly, which is why I'm going with you, but the longer that you leave it, the worse the pain will get."

We break away from each other and then collect our jackets and put them on, once we are both ready we head out to Nathan's car and begin the journey that will stir up so many memories.

As we turn into the street where my house used to stand the bottom part of my muzzle begins to quiver, Nathan sees this and gently puts his paw on my leg and squeezes. My mind registers the fact that Nathan is trying his best to give me the strength that I need, but to be honest I can't really feel it at the moment.

As Nathan stops his car just behind mine, I notice that the authorities have already started sorting the house or what's left of it, out. There are furs with hard hats and high visibility jackets meticulously sifting through the rubble, probably to try and rescue anything that may have survived the blast.

In the back of my mind, I know that they are only doing their job and will undoubtedly put anything that is salvageable into storage for me, but right now, seeing people picking through the debris that used to be my life sends my blood to boiling point. I quickly remove my seat belt and clamber out of the car, my mind set on killing those who are as I see it at the moment, desecrating the memory of my mother.

Fortunately, Nathan is too quick for me and has me held in a strong hug that I just can't break free from. My neighbour sees Nathan struggling to keep me in his arms and so she helps him to drag me into her house.

Once inside the house I break down completely, venting all of my tears and anger and lashing out at the two people who are trying to help me, it's then that Nathan does something that shocks both me and my neighbour, he slaps me hard across the face.

"For fuck sake Dean, the guys out there are doing their job, a very difficult job I'm sure, the last thing they want to do is add to your misery, I know it is hard for you to take but going after them with all of your guns blazing won't win you many friends."

I let out an angry sigh, my body tense as I am still fighting to get away, to get my paws on the guys clearing the rubble, it is then that Mrs. Granger manages to get through to me.

"Dean sweetheart, listen to what your friend is telling you. I have already been outside to speak to the foreman of the work crew, he knows that if he finds anything that has survived he is to bring it to me and I will store it here until you can come to collect it, I will also make sure that I inspect anything that they are taking away, I won't let them take anything that I think you may want to keep."

Some of the tension begins to leave my body and now I just shiver as I allow the tears to fully take over.
