The underground parking area is dark and nearly deserted, silence plunged in the vehicle between myself and my boss' daughter. I don't bother to look away from my focus straight ahead as I wait, wait for her to make the first move since I know she needs to.

Jamie sighs and I finally look up at her. "I don't wanna go back." She tells me quietly as she leans her head against the window, a tear sliding down her cheek and I continue to stare at her through the rearview mirror. I hate seeing her cry, I hated it the very first time I had to hold her in that stairwell but now my feelings for her are different and it just makes it that much worse...still though, knowing that she's comfortable to do it in front of me is the part I love. "I don't care about this stupid will inheritance and I don't care about that family." She sniffs and wipes her cheek, then she glances at me through her eyelashes and I decide to distract her, since I know it's too fresh to talk about anything with the hopes of sorting it at the moment.

"Wanna come to Argentina with me?"

"Wha..?" She raises her head and begins dragging her fingers over the mascara that ran under her eyes while squinting at me. I smile underneath the cover of my mask. "You're crazy."

"Yet I'm not kidding. Just to get away for a while."

"You'd take me with? You know it would probably give me the chance to look into your past." She unbuckles her seatbelt and I turn to look at her properly.

"Come with me. Just the two of us, it'll be fun."

"When would we leave?"

"When I receive a call." I tell her and her eyes glint thoughtfully, a layer of curiosity covering her gaze and I know that I need her to agree. "Say yes Jamie." I probe, the feeling of want that I feel in my chest extremely unfamiliar but the expectancy of the result she may give.

"It's been ten minutes, we should be heading back to the court now now." She answers and regardless of myself, I smirk, then turn away from her and start the car. "Drive slow, I have to touch up my makeup."

She tells me while reaching into her purse and patting some stuff onto her face before wiping underneath her eyes while I drive as smoothly as possible to avoid the glares she gives me every time we hit a bump or lump

.....

The court was called a day once the DNA samples taken, so Jamie went home and then changed into her thick striped bikini, going into her bathroom to wipe off her makeup, while deep in thought about what Hitter had suggested to her.

'Come with me...' She doesn't know what to make of that. Pulling up her top and fixing it around her chest, Jamie stares at her reflection as she considers how much it would benefit her to get away for a while. But then she wonders if being with Hitter is what she needs more than the thought of the escape.

Since when did she want to willingly need the presence of somebody other than herself or even her mother? Jamie knows that hers and her sisters relationships with their mother is unhealthy but that's because they've never desired a relationship outside of their family of women.

Jamie doesn't like how much she's grown to depend on the male, but she can't help the pull she has towards him either. Is this normal, to fall for someone so quickly? If she can even call it that.

It isn't like Jamie hasn't been attracted to men in the past just not like Hitter. What she feels towards him isn't only physical but emotional as well and that she's never done.

Leaving her bathroom, Jamie takes off her jewelry then walks barefoot down the stairs and out to her pool. She climbs her diving board and swiftly launches herself into the pool, spreading her arms and swimming underneath the surface before tilting her head back and shaking the water from her eyes as she comes up for air.
