"Earth to Jack, Jack to earth" brought Jack out of his reverie.
" Man, you have it really bad, don't you? ", Nathan said, shaking his head in pity.
" Have what?", Jake was confused " I don't have the flu"
"Oh, not the flu. You have the love bug and it's eating you up", Nathan corrected him, laughing.
Jack had accepted the offer to hand out with the guys after he had spent the whole day, trying to create a single document that normally took him two hours tops.
"I do not have the love bug", he denied.
"It's in your eyes man, I can see it all too clearly. You're thinking about someone every time you stare into non-existent space", Nathan told him.
It was true. He had been thinking about Meghan. What was she doing in Paris, who was she with, was she hanging with another guy, laughing their heads off?
Although he would not admit it to Jake, he had to admit"You look absolutely stunning, Juliet. No one's gonna bite you or anything, calm down", Meghan tried to reassure her friend for the umpteenth time that evening.They were about to go for the rehearsal dinner and Juliet's nerves had been all over the place."I know, I know. I just can't help thinking I'm going to screw this up somehow", Juliet answered her." You're not going to screw up, Jules. You have planned this all down to the letter. You'll be okay, I'm sure. We don't want you looking all stressed now, do we?"" No, we don't. I'll be fine in a moment", Juliet said, smoothing invisible wrinkles on her gown.She was wearing a pale blue gown that seemed to shimmer in the evening sky.Teardrop midnight blue earrings shine from her ears and her hair fell down in tinted cascade of waves.She had finished the look off with a plain gold necklace and black heels.Me
"God, you're goddamn beautiful. You are like an angel, a fairy, a goddess", Meghan gushed as Juliet stood in front of the mirror, her eyes misting over."I'm not gonna cry. I'm not gonna cry. It's my big day and I'm supposed to be happy", Juliet repeated those words like a mantra." You can cry all you want, love. They are happy tears and besides, your mascara is waterproof", Meghan told her." What about the rest of the makeup? Leo's mom brought her own makeup artist all the way here to do it", Juliet asked, worried." Alright, fine. You have a point. Don't cry. Let me do all the crying, okay?"" Do you know how much tears I want to cry? "" A thousand bucket full?"" Maybe two", Juliet wiped her eyes with a tissue before her tears could trickle down her face."Leo is going to be dumbstruck when he sees you. You make me want to be a bride
"You sure about this, sugar? We can always have a private session at home. The playroom is big enough", Jack asked Meghan as they walked into the club.She reached up and kissed him."I'm okay, Jack. This is your world and I want to make it mine too. Besides, I don't want to take you away from your friends"Jack looked at her, love shining in his eyes.To him, Meghan was the only person in the club."Hey, man. Congratulations", Caleb slapped him on the back." Yeah, congrats on getting engaged. Seems like we have two open spots now", Luke said" Don't you fucking dare", Caleb and Jack growled."Chill out. I was only kidding. Do your partners know that they are keeping tigers at home? "Meghan patted Jack's chest." Of course I do. I just make sure I give him his meal on time", she said and winked at Luke." Ouu. Lucky guy""Congratulations, Meghan", Jake came forward."Jake", Meghan practically jumped on him."Where the hell have you been?""Here. Was waiting till you get back before I
Should there be a spin-off? I’m curious to see if you guys want more. It’ll have to be the main characters acting as side characters, and the main story will be about Megan’s friend. She’ll fall in love with one of Jack’s old friend that she met at the wedding- love at first sight. But, he’ll not be in love with her. I’m curious, because it’s an idea I have been working out in my head for months. If you say you want it- I’ll give it to you. Also, I’m a better writer now, so there’s that.
"Meg, what are you doing here?"Jack asked her.Why would she be in his study when she had clearly stated that all they had together was business?And why was she kneeling, palms facing up on her knees and head bowed?Had she decided to finally submit? Had she...?No,he mustn't think that. She had made her point clear a week ago. She had told him loud and clear, she was no mansm submissive.So, he asked her again."Meghan, why are you here?"With the most alluring and pleading eyes he had ever seen, she looked at him and said two words that completely undid him."Please, sir"
MeghanMeg tugged on the skirt she had been forced by her friend to wear as she walked through the formidable gates into the Victorian house her cab had just pulled up at.She was going to meet her new employer, Jack Grayson and for some reason Juliet had thought that a fitted pencil skirt would look appropriate and maybe appeal to the figure she was lacking as a female. Not that she was on the skinny side, but compared to Juliet who had a flat tummy, amble bosom and a killer backside, she was seriously lacking.And she seriously needed her new job. She was way behind on her rent and other bills that were piling up by the week. This was the only solution if she did not want to accept Juliet’s offer to move into her house. Juliet had come from old money and had no reason to work
JackJack sat in his study on Monday morning with Jake. Jake had been his best friend for over fifteen years and the only person he was comfortable showing himself to. Not like he had gotten any say in that area though. When he had the accident, Jake had been at his side until recovery and till he was discharged.The first time he had seen himself in the mirror and had immediately banned everyone from visiting, Jake had thrown protocols to the wind and had barged into his house the next day demanding to see him.He had waited a week before Jack had finally come out of the room. Jake hadn’t flinched or expressed disgust when he saw his face and from that moment the two had become inseparable. Mostly because Jack had refused to show his face to the world and needed a representative.Jack hadn’t shown his face to the public apart from the month of his accident in five
Meghan“I’m sinking my feet into the plushiest rug I have ever seen and the bed behind me feels like heaven. If I knew it would be this cozy, I don’t think I would have put up an argument in the first place” Meg said to Juliet.She had turned back to her room after Jack had strode off, suddenly feeling foolish and featherbrained. Maybe she was not supposed to walk around the house because of places she wasn’t supposed to enter or maybe the sight of her made him angry.She could not for the life of her understand why one minute he was laughing and the next he wanted her as far as possible away from him.“Well, if you are going to be staying long you might as well enjoy it “Juliet replied her.“Oh yeah, I plan to.”“So, tell me. Have you met him today?”“Who am I s

This is a flash back to Jack and Anna's story."I made a promise that I wasn't going back there and I wouldn't have done it, Anna. But I owed it to Micheal.He did a lot for me when I had no place to turn to.I'm fucking sorry, I swear", Jack was pleading with Anna, the boxes they had packed on their king bed."I begged you for one simple thing. One simple thing, Jack. Did I ask you for anything else? I did not. I only begged you to stay away. Let me give you another way to heal.Another way to express yourself but... " Anna replied him, rage in her eyes, tears shinning.Jack felt his heart sink.Hurting her was something he had sworn that he would never do. She had helped him, slowly and patiently brought him out of the miserable place he was.Begged for only thing and he couldn't give her.But how was he going to explain to her that he owed Micheal part of him? Hal
Jack walked into his library and looked at the sofa for the third time that morning.Part of him, although he clearly knew that it was impossible, hoped that the second or third time he came in, he would see Meghan there.See her poring over the papers, reading with some much concentration, a smile forming on her face from time to time.He had caught glimpses of her, while she had been unaware.There were some days he had walked up to the door, his fist poised to knock but had settled for watching her through the slightly opened door.Meghan was something else, something he didn't understand. She was better than he deserved. She gave, her time and emotions to her friends.She approached life more freely than she did.How had she gone and fallen in love with someone like him.For him, she was like a burst of fresh air. Like salvation, healing if he wanted to be honest.He had allowed her to com
"It's amazing, isn't it?""Now I wonder why I put up my initial argument. I should have just said "yes, please""You were giving me all that, Jules I cant accept charity bullshit,sermon"" I was trying to be independent, Sue me", Meghan said." Independent my ass. Who bumped your seat up to first class? Checked you into the hotel?", Juliet asked her" It wasn't comfortable, anyways and the people at the hotel were too stuffy and formal", Meg replied her, turning up her nose." Yet you didn't want to leave""I'll admit, being waited on hands and feet has it's perks. Who cares about the stuffy people?", Meghan said with a sighJuliet walked to the living room wall of the penthouse which was all glass."Tell me , what do you think?""It's beautiful. The view from here is crazy. I can almost touch the sky if I
"Are you still with us?" Jack heard the snap of fingers in front of him and looked at who had the fingers"Yeah, I'm here""You zoned out for a moment there"" I know, dad. I was thinking", Jack replied impatiently. He had finally agreed to the board meeting but he did not agree to be snapped at."What do you think about the production line in Chelsea?",his father asked.Jack bit down on his tongue to refrain himself from replying rudely as he searched for nice words in his vocabulary. If he wanted to tell his father how he felt, his father's ego could take a bruising and Jack wasn't about to sour the sweet chance of him taking over the company. Not when he had worked tooth and skin to get a chance."I think it's a good chance, but...",he let the unspoken words lie in the air." But?', his father prompted.Inside his head, Jack smiled. At
