I Think He Knows

My day could not have started differently than usual. I had several missed calls from an unknown number.

Marks dumbass cat he gave me had decided to run away during the night, so I tried stayed awake until it came back.

I was lucky that Reid didn't live too far from my apartment complex and that he could pick me up on his way to work.

I was standing on the sidewalk outside my building with a paper bag full of a variety of cakes while waiting for boy genius to arrive.

He arrived a few minutes after I walked outside. While Reid was driving, I showed the sweets I had brought him.

"Since you're the best friend I could ask for, I brought you sweets! There are mostly donuts here. I really hope it's okay," I explained as he took off a napkin and got into the bag while we sat at a red light.

"You really didn't have to do this," Spencer told me. "I live seven minutes and twenty-six seconds away without traffic. Taking you to work is not something you have to pay me for."

"Shut up, Let me give you gifts," I replied smiling.

"Last week you got me a new cup of coffee. You don't have to give me any more gifts." He stated and I shook my head.

"It's not my fault that my loving language is giving away." I defend myself.

After a few minutes my started buzzing in my pocket so it felt like the hundredth time that morning.

I was about to decline it thinking of another call from an unknown number.

But didn't when I saw Marks name on my phone.

"Hey little sis how's it going how's Lucy?" Mark asked and I rolled my eyes.

"Did you call for me or the cat?" I ask and he laughs.

"You you of course how are you?" He asks and I shake my head.

"I'm fine and going to work so talk later?" I ask and hang up the phone. Usually I would spend hours talking to him but I was not going to tell him I lost his cat.

I got a text message from Alex, the neighbor.

Alex: Found Lucy walking in the halls, I can watch her until you come back.

Me: Thank god, my brother would've killed me if he found out I lost that dumb cat. But if you could watch her that would be great!

Alex: Ok I will, glad to have stopped a homicide!

Me: Thank you again!!

Alex: You're welcome ☺️

Now I know what most people think about my and Alex's relationship but he's gay and has a boyfriend that's always buying toys for the cat.

We finally arrived at the office and entered the building together. It wasn't long before my phone started ringing again.

I stopped walking to get it out of my pocket and saw that there was no caller ID. Sighing, I looked at Spencer, who had stopped a few steps ahead to wait for me.

"This person has been calling me since 4 a.m. today, would I give him a break?" I murmured.

"Maybe it's important?" He suggested.

"If it were important, they would leave a voice message," I said and he nodded in agreement. "I really can't get them to do this while we're working. Go ahead. I'm going to answer this call and then I'll see you there." I say and Reid nods walking forward.
