"Flight 418 to London now boarding at gate 36 for priority, first-class, and anyone who may need assistance getting on board. Standard boarding will begin shortly. Again, flight 418 to London England now begins boarding at gate 36. Please have your ticket and passport ready." I sighed.

"I guess you heard that."

"Yea."

"Ok. Well, I'll talk to you tonight... I'm sorry."

"It's ok, take care of work..."

"Ok..."

"Have a safe flight."

"Wait. Uh... if you want you can go to my hotel room... I'll be back in a few days and you can get started on the secretary stuff, I'll email you on the plane."

"Ok... be safe."

"I will baby girl." I pressed end and ran my hand through my hair. I was still in pain but I managed to tidy up my place, I can't believe it was only this morning Lou was telling me all this stuff and now she's on a flight to England... and I already miss her.

I drive to the hotel and she had a key waiting for me at the front desk, once in her room I pulled up my email. I started to read it and I thought for a second. She already has a new secretary who emailed me about her house and business... I replied to the email. 'You already have a secretary.' I pressed send and let out a breath.

'That may have been a lie. I got a friend to email you. I couldn't talk to you and not tell you how much I missed you.' I let out a breath and went into her office, I sat down at her desk and opened the laptop. I thought about the email and I opened the bottom right drawer, I pulled out a file and a letter fell on the floor with a newspaper clipping. I stopped when I realized it was Lucy. I picked it up and read it. 'LDP is one of the biggest companies in the UK at the moment all thanks to a local woman. Miss Davis has hit Europe's top 40 most accomplished people under 40. With a multi-million dollar publishing company and several hotels in the UK, USA and Canada.' Ok... I knew she had money but... she has... money. 'Miss Davis was quoted as saying. "Having someone in my life who supported me made me who I am. If it wasn't for A.W I wouldn't be this successful. She gave me a loan to get my dream off the grown and I owe it all to her." Miss Davis' inspiration who is a ghostwriter in this paper said. "I am so proud of her and everything she's accomplished. Being a part of her life is something I'll always be proud of." We are proud to say that a small-town girl has hit it big and is getting ready to open a publishing house in Los Angela.' I folded up the paper and as I put it back in the envelope a small clipping was hanging out. 'Kim Wasters and Dixon Nelson have announced their engagement' engagement notices? I didn't know newspapers did that still? 'Congratulations to our newly appointed staff editor!' Wait... I unfolded the other paper and looked at the dates, then at the envelope.

"Son of a bitch." I mumbled. I slammed the drawer shut and chewed my lip. Fuck. My phone dinged and I saw an email. I reread the first one and realized she said bottom left drawer... I shook my head and checked the new email. 'I emailed all the clients your email so they recognize it.' I locked my phone and held my breath for a second... honestly, why am I surprised... and why am I so bothered by this? Lucy is a sadist... she likes punishing and likes sex and she said she hasn't had sex since I left which was two and a half months ago... I grabbed my phone. 'Are you going to meet up with anyone well your away?' I sent. I went to her couch and laid down, my side was hurting and I was annoyed.
