"This is my private elevator ensure to use it next time," Xavier says as they enter and the door shuts. "Next time? What makes you think I will be coming here next time?" "You just promised in there to deliver food to me since I'll be investing in your talent," he said in a duh tone. "Yes but I can use a delivery service to achieve that" "Don't you dare" he said as he narrowed his eyes. "So you want me to hand deliver every lunch?" "Yes and of course you can come in to visit me once in a while too," he said. "Come on Xavier, using a delivery service would be faster and that means I don't have to leave work" "Don't you want to have lunch together?""It would be a nice idea" "Then why are you turning me down?" he asked perplexed. "When did I?" "Me saying you should hand deliver every lunch is a way of me saying we should have lunch together every day from today. No matter what it is I will clear my schedule to have lunch with you" "Oh," Jessica cleared her throat as she star
Alicia and Jason had made up. Jason was open to the idea so much so that he accepted. He confessed to Alicia that deciding to break up was a foolish decision. Since they had made up he stayed an extra night where they spoke about their dreams together. "Do I have to go back today?" he asked as they stood in the airport. He had taken the night flight so he could spend a little extra time with her all day. "Must you?" she asked pulling up her cutest face ever. "I will miss you, very much," she said holding his hands. He sighed and hung his head. His flight would be boarding soon and he did not want to go. "What if I come to Crescent Bay?" she asked and his head went up as his eyes lit up like a child being offered candy. "Since we will be moving the headquarters our staff would need to be visiting the town for many meetings and the like so I'll tag along" "With every single trip?" he asked. "If I do that I will barely get any work done at all" she replied. "But I will visit as oft
"You are home early tonight""Xavier had to leave early," Brian said. "He has been leaving early these days, maybe something is going on?" she asked. "Not that I know of," Brian said yawning. "I am so exhausted so I will be going in for a shower" She watched as he left the living room and climbed up to their room. She stood up and went after him. "Do you want to order in or should we cook something?" she said sitting on the bed as he shuffled around the room trying to remove his clothes. "Any you want," he said and Leslie frowned. Since they found out that they were not pregnant that month again Brian had been distracted and distant and she hated it. She wanted her husband back. He had said work was what was taking a toll on him but she was not sure anymore. Was he acting that way because she was unable to get pregnant? "Brian" she called. Brian sighed he knew he was in trouble. She usually called him by his first name whenever he had offended. He could also tell by the tone of
"Then why do you constantly try to make me feel like I have done such a thing? Since we took the pregnancy test last week and it came out negative you have been avoiding doing all the things we do together. Is it my fault I am unable to get pregnant?" she ranted as tears streamed down her face. They had visited the hospital and the doctor had assured them that there was nothing wrong with the both of them. The Doctor told them to keep trying and that they could get lucky. "Okay, I admit it. I was a little disappointed" Brian replied. "But not at you" he added immediately when he saw the expression on her face. "Then at who?" "At nobody, I was just disappointed that we would not get to have a baby soon. I was disappointed that it was taking more time than we had anticipated. I was just disappointed in myself. I saw you in such great pain but there was nothing I could do to help stop it" he said. Leslie lifted her hands to his face as she caressed it. She too felt disappointed not
"Since it's all burnt now why don't as order another one?" Leslie asked. "Or we could go on a midnight date?" Brian suggested. When they had nearly gotten married they went on all sorts of dates which included running around on the main street in the middle of the night. "It's been such a long time since we did that" Leslie walked up to him. He put his hand on her waist and pulled her closer to him. She shrieked a little out of excitement and put her hand on his forearm."Aren't we doing something such as a vow renewal? This is me proposing to have an all-night date with the most beautiful woman in the world right now" "Two years and you still know how to make me blush?" she asked hitting him so lightly that it could not hurt. "Leta go change," he said lifting her. "Put me down," she said in shock at the way he suddenly lifted her. "Why? You used to like it when I carried you" he asked his voice sounding disappointed. "I still like it it is just that I must have gained a ton o
****** It is earlier in the evening and Xavier comes to pick Jessica up from her restaurant ****** "Just give me a minute and I will wrap all that I am doing and we can be on our way," Jessica said ushering Xavier to one of the restaurant chairs she had received earlier today. "Is that it?" "Is that what?" she turned back at him confused at his question. "I was missing you so bad that I wanted the day to be over so I could run to you but it seems like it was only me missing you. You did not miss me at all" he murmured. "Why did you arrive at that conclusion?" she asked as she walked slowly towards him. "Because you greeted me with so much courtesy I almost thought we were transported to the palace" "What?" she asked with a laugh. She could barely believe her ears. So he knew how to speak in such a manner. "I mean, when couples see each other they usually hug it out or kiss but you almost gave me a handshake. Now you are hurrying back to your work""I only wanted to hurry up so
Jessica had barely spent a second in the hug when she tried to peel herself from Xavier. "It's late already why don't we just go home?" she asked rushing to the back room to get her bag. "Already? What of the work you said you had to wrap up?" he asked following her. "I was personally curating the menu, I will finish it up tomorrow," she said meeting him at the door with her jacket in one hand and bag in the other. "Let's go then" Xavier collected the jacket from her and intertwined their hands together. "I just want to hold your hands" Her hands relaxed into his and then they began to walk towards the car. They successfully closed up the place and entered the car "What can we have for dinner?" Xavier asked. "I can whip anything you want quickly when we get home" Now when she said home it felt like home. It felt warm and cozy to her. "I was asking so we can go on a date in a fancy restaurant. I already booked so you can't refuse or else all my money will go to waste""I thought
By the time they had gotten back home the whole house was asleep already except for the security guard that was on duty. "They are all so cold in this house. They did not see us but did not bother to check on us" Xavier said loudly as they entered the dark house. "Shhhh," Jessica said putting her hand against his lips. "What?" he asked still in a loud voice. "The whole house is sleeping, it will be unfair if we come in by past twelve and then decide to wake them all up. If it were me ill also be mad" she continued in a whisper. "Don't they care about us?" "I'm very sure they do, let's go to bed now," she said pulling him towards the stairs. "I don't think they do" he murmured as she pulled him. "They must have been working all day they need to sleep," she told him like he was a child who was unaware of try way the world works. "I wanted to give them the good news," he said putting his foot down firmly and refusing to move. "What good news" she maintained her whisper while hi
