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.
Standing in front of the door was Jack. Ana looked at him with an annoyed look on her face and turned her head away. He had a smug smile on his face and Ana was tempted to slap it off."Good morning–" Jack started but Ana was quick to interrupt him.
Ana widened her eyes a little as she looked at Jack. The atmosphere in her office had taken a different turn. It wasn't aggressive and tense any longer, just so fucking heavy and sexy. Ana swallowed.
They had reached. The house looked kind of familiar and Ana couldn't really place it. She frowned. Why had he brought her here? And what kind of surprise did he have for her? Here?
