Chapter 4

ABBYS POV

Jaxson woke me early today and came and snuggled in bed with me.these are the moments I treasure the most just me and him nothing else exists in this moment we have. He has taught me so much especially how to love until him I didn’t think I could love but he proved me wrong. But unfortunately we can’t stay in here forever I need to get ready for work. I quickly shower and change the get Jaxson dressed.we go downstairs and Eric lifts his head up off the sofa with scowl “you better ask your mom see if she can have him I feel like s**t” great what he really means is he just wants to go back to sleep”fine” is the short reply I give him I go in the kitchen and sit Jaxson down with his breakfast and ring my mom it doesn’t take long for her to answer “ hi mom”

“Hi sweetie what’s up” she knew something was up I never ring her when Im home and she knows iv not set off to work yet “ erm Eric’s not feeling well would you be able to watch Jaxson while I’m at work please” I waited praying that she could “ course I can hunny he can stop the night and just pick him up on your way home from work tomorrow” I released a breath I didn’t realise I was holding “thanks mom I’ll just get his things together and bring him over” I feel myself relaxing I always felt more relaxed when Jaxson was with my mom I knew he’d be given more attention and not just stuck in front of the tv eating junk “anytime sweetie I love having him see you soon”.

I quickly ran round the house getting Jaxsons things together. Once I’d got all his things we quickly headed to the car with short clipped bye thrown at Eric he replied with a grumble and we left. I dropped Jaxson off with my mom who was thrilled to have him as soon as I saw he was settled I went off to work.

I arrive at work and it’s a relief not to feel worried about Jaxson. I quickly tidy my bags away under my desk and go to the break room to make myself a coffee . I wasn’t really paying attention when I walked in. I’m used to been the only one that uses the break room on the top floor so I got the fright of my life when I heard a deep voice “hi Abby” I snapped my head up to see MR Black standing by the coffee machine I just stared at him still in shock “would you like a coffee” was he really asking if I want a coffee I seriously must of miss read him yesterday I managed to sort my brain out enough to speak “ it’s alright I can make my own thank you” trying to focus on anything but him I could feel the heat of stare on me making me fidget “Abby I’m not above making you a cup of coffee I really don’t mind” I don’t want to seem rude so I just go with it “ Oki just black coffee please” I watched as he got a clean cup from the cupboard and pour in the hot black coffee and he handed it over to me “I’ll see you at lunch Abby” he almost standing to close I couldn’t bring myself to look him and before I could pick up the courage thank him he was gone and my body sagged from the tension.

The morning went by fairly quick no messages yet from Eric so I’m guessing he’s still asleep I sent a message to my mom checking in on Jaxson and she was quick to reply there having a lovely time gardening and about to have a picnic. I smiled to myself I bet he’s having a great time I put my phone back in my bag as MR Black walk up to my desk “ready for lunch?” He asked and I nodded. I followed him out the building and across the street to a little restaurant it was nice and cozy covered orange and red colours. Once seated we was given menus I ordered the salad and MR Black ordered steak “thank you MR Black” he looked at me and grinned “please call me Hunter I hate being called MR Black makes me sound like an old man” he let out a light chuckle that made me smile to myself “right Abby I looked at you proposal again and I think it’s perfect the way it is. I wouldn’t change a thing” I looked at him trying see if he was serious. If nothing needs changing then why have we come out to lunch “ I thought we could use this time to get to know each other a little since we’re going to be spending a lot of time together” he said answering the silent question. I fidgeted in my seat theres nothing to tell him about me I’m just a simple dull girl “ okay” I already found myself agreeing we slipped into easy conversation nothing to heavy like going into each other’s personal lives. We mainly spoke about work how we enjoy what we do and how we got to we’re we are once back in the office Hunter turned to me “ I really enjoyed today, we should do it again” my stomach was doing summer salutes he wants to have lunch… again…with me I’m probably the most boring person in the whole tower block but I just agreed “okay” then he added “I’m not in the office tomorrow Iv got meetings going on all day so I’ll not see you now till Monday” I faint smile came on my lips.

Brilliant I have the whole floor to myself i can be even more relaxed now the rest of the day and Friday went fast I couldn’t wait to see Jaxson iv missed him so much.
