Landon looked at Ana keenly. She was different. She was more fidgety and definitely more excited. And he had asked her why about five times, she didn't want to tell him.
Ana felt Landon's stare on her. She had been postponing telling him about Jack. But looked like she couldn't anymore.

Lucy looked at Jack's office from the corner of her eye. The man was not the same anymore. It was like he was a different person all together. He smiled and he even chuckled. Chuckled. Something he had never been fond of doing.She wondered who the hell or what the hell had put him in such a good mood.
Ana was sitting in the office and editing the article on Jack Knight. She was convinced it was going to receive a lot of positive reactions. One, it was Jack Knight. Which straight female didn't fantasize a little about him, and which gay boy didn't drool a little?Two, she was convinced she had asked the right questions. Ana knew she was good at what she did. She was passionate about it. It was what she was meant to do her whole life. She had no doubt about that.
Ana stared at the door in shock. She had never imagined for one second that her conversation with Jack would prompt Landon to leave as he had just done. She didn’t know what exactly she had done wrong. It wasn’t the first time she was having a conversation with a potential partner in front of him, and she had been trying to make it short so they could get back to talking.
Yet again, Ana was sitting across Jack. In another restaurant. But everything was different this time around. She didn’t feel coerced. She actually wanted to be here. Even though technically, she had not even agreed to go on this date with him.It was weird how she didn’t mind how the man ha
Ana did not think she had ever felt so excited after a date. There was a smile on her face, and if it got larger, she was probably going to tear her jaws open. She wanted to see him again. It was weird because he had only just dropped her off. But she was still craving his presence. It wasn’t that the man was perfect. He definitely wasn’t. But she wasn’t looking for perfect. Ana didn’t know what she was looking for but this man had managed to make her taken with him so much. She loved being around him.Ana let out a sigh and dropped the smile from her face, even though it was hard to do so. Then the thoughts started creeping up on her and she settled into her couch. She did not bother turning the lights on. The more she thought about everything, the more her mood dropped. And even the thought of Jack could not bring the smile back to her face. Her thoughts… the thoughts. She was thinking about her best friend and about how cold he was now. He still had not returned any of her calls,
It was Monday morning, one of the busiest days in Jack's week. But he managed to take out time and call Ana that morning. Their "relationship" or whatever one would call it, was developing slowly but surely.
"So it's done? He's accepted the deal?" Jack asked after they spent an hour and a half talking to the head of the first that was supposed to invest in their company."Yeah. You knew he would," Lucy said with a smirk, looking at Jack with bright eyes.
Ana was sitting in bed and staring at her tummy. It had been a month since she had discovered alongside Landon that she was pregnant and she was noticing a lot of differences. She was kinda scared someone else was going to notice them too.First, she had a bump. It was not that visible. But if you were a nosy person and decided to look closely, you'd notice. Or if you were a very observant person, it'd be obvious.
