SHADY GOINGS ON.

** BECKY'S POINT OF VIEW ** 

Reece had been away working with Steve. I had been left with the babies. They were getting older now but that did not mean that things were getting easier. I was doing tiny bits of work here and there. Voice overs and audio books.

I was at home in Reece's office doing some dusting whilst the babies slept when his office phone rang. I ignored it as it was his private thing. I was wiping his desk clean with some disinfectant when the phone rang again. I ignored it again for the same reason as before. I was just finishing hovering his floor when the phone rang again this time I got frustrated as it was the third time.

"Hello Reece it's Stacey is now a good time?" she asked like she needed to talk to him about something secret.

"Hello this is his girlfriend. Can I help you?" I asked not bothering.

Silence.

"Hello?" I asked again.

Silence.

"Hello?" I asked again getting a little annoyed.

"Hello sorry... I'm looking for Mr Shearsmith is he away right now?"

"He is away now. I can take a message for you."

"It's ok. Would you be able to tell me when he would be back or how I could contact him otherwise."

"He won't be back for a few days. I can give you his email if that would be of any help." I could not suspect anything. It could be a work thing. It does not mean he was doing anything wrong.

"Thank you that would be very helpful."

I tried not to be annoying or upset. I just gave her his email and hoped that he would not be mad at me.

** REECE'S POINT OF VIEW **

I was sat in my trailer missing the family when my phone buzzed. I looked and saw an email from Stacey. I clicked it immediately. Excitement buzzed through me.

"Hello Reece. I called your office phone but your girlfriend answered. I want you to know everything is ready for Saturday. How exciting J Stacey."

I was almost jumping up and down. I could not wait for Saturday everything was going to go so well. I ignored the anxiety I had as much as I could. I had to forget all the consiquences and questions for if this went wrong. I sent her a message back.

"Hello Stacey. Ok thank you very much. Thank you for all the work you have put in. Reece."
