A week and a half later.

I walk out of my apartment building and to my car. I soon pull up to the office and I get out of my car before locking it.

My straightened hair flies in my face as I walk up to the doors.

"Jade!"

I freeze in my tracks and look back to see Harry jogging up to me. He's wearing a pair of skinny jeans, a grey sweater, a grey bandana, and a pair of his grayish boots.

He runs straight up to me and pulls me into a hug. I can't help but Hug him back.

He pulls away and his eyes trail up and down my body. "Babe you look... amazing."

I'm just wearing a simple black dress with heels that have bows with a black headband in my hair.

"Thanks." I blush.

"So I umm.... I really need to talk to you about something." he shifts from leg to leg and I nod.

"Follow me." I open the door and let the chaos of my day begin.

"Good Morning Miss. Reeb. Heres your chai tea and your asiago cheese bagel." My secretary, Lillian, says as she hands me my bagel.

"Thank you." I nod as I take it.

"Miss. Reeb you have a meeting at 12 in the conference room." someone else tells me and I thank them as I get to the elevator.

I hit the button and walk into the elevator with Harry behind me. As soon as the doors close I sigh of relief and lean against the elevator wall.

"What floor?" Harry asks.

"Top." I rub my temple and he hits it.

We soon get to the top floor and we walk out.

"Whoa. This whole floor is just your office?" Harry asks as he looks around in amazement.

"Yeah." I give him a bashful smile.

I go around my desk ask I set my purse down on the seat. Harry sits down in a chair in front of the desk so I go around it and sit on my desk in front of him. I cross my legs and arms as I look at him.

"So why are you here and how did you know that I worked here?" I ask.

"I called your mum and I'm here because..." he trails off and I take a bite of my bagel. "Because when we had sex I didn't use a condom and you might be pregnant."

I choke a but and cough. I cover my mouth and grip onto my desk.

"What?!" I manage to say between coughs.

"You need to take a pregnancy test." he says his voice wavering.

"I'm not taking a pregnancy test." I shake my head as I climb off my desk.

"Jade please. Just one test. Please." Harry begs.

"Fine." I huff.

"Thank you."

"Whatever." I mumble as I walk past Harry and he catches my wrist.

I freeze in place as soon as I feel his warm hand around my wrist. He pulls me to him and I end up sitting on his lap.

He wraps his arms around me and he nuzzles my neck.

"I'm really sorry. I found out that my phone was accidentally put on do not disturb so I didn't get any messages or text messages. But that's not an excuse, I'm really sorry for leaving you that day. I really am." he mumbles into my neck.

He plays with my hand and he freezes at my ring finger. He lifts up my hand to see it and a smile grows on his lips.

"You never took off your promise ring."

"We made a promise, and Jayden Reeb doesn't break promises." I remind him and he kisses my shoulder.

"I know."

There's a beep and I jump up off his lap to get to my phone.

"Miss. Reeb, your meeting starts in thirty minutes." Lillian says through the speaker and I roll my eyes.

"Thank you Lillian." I say.

I pull away from the speaker and I sit back up on my desk. Harry and I stare at each other for a moment before I clear my throat.

"Have you eaten today?" I ask.

"No-"

"Here." I hand him the asiago bagel and he looks up at me.

"It's just the way you like it." I give a small smile and he smiles back at me but he doesn't eat it.

"It's yours."

"I have a meeting that I have to get ready for." I tell him as I lean over and grab my clip board of designs.

"Can I come?" He asks.

"No, just-" I grab the tv remote off my desk and hand it to him, "Watch tv, Netflix, whatever I don't care. if you need anything press nine on the phone and tell Lillian. The bathroom is right there too."

"I think I'll remember all of that." He blinks.

"Just text me if you need anything and I'll be back in less than," I glance at my wrist watch, "Twenty minutes."

"Okay babe. Good luck." he tells me and I walk to the elevator.

Harry and I walk out of my work place and to my car where we get in.

"So where do you live?" He asks as he plays with the hem of his sweater.

"In a townhouse." I tell him as I turn on my car.

"That's cool."

"Yep."

I pull the car out of the parkinglot and instead of taking a right to my townhouse I take a left to town. I pull up to the grocery store and I turn to Harry after I turn off the car.

"Stay here, I'll be right back." I get out and walk swiftly into the drug store where I buy quite a few pregnancy tests before walking back out.

"What'd you get?" Harry asks and I throw him the bag. He looks in it and then back up at me. "Oh."
