In The End (Part 2)

Chapter 4: GOSSIPS

DAISY

I wakeup this morning realising I have about ten missed calls from Mrs Presnor and Tamara.
Did I miss something?
I check the time and I'm not late either so what on earth could be this important?

I call Tamara and she picks the call up instantly.
'Daisy? Where on earth are you?!' Her voice comes out in a speed.

'I'm at home, I'm not supposed to be in till another two hours' I say

'Well you need to come here quick because J&A corporate is here at the office!'
I sit up straight in my bed.
'What do you mean they're there?' I ask getting out of my bed as soon as I can and running to my bathroom with my phone in my hand.
'I don't fucking know!' She whispers
'Language when speaking to me Tamara!' I shout at the phone in distress.
'Look I am stressed as it is. mrs presnor keeps asking me where you are and I keep telling the scary man in your office to wait a few more minutes'

The scary man being jax, I can understand why Tamara is intimidated by him. 'Ok I'll be there in ten minutes'
'Fine. At least I have a specific time I can tell them to wait' she sighs. 'Oh also, tell that CEO that good things come to those who wait.' I smile at myself in the mirror and put toothpaste on my toothbrush.
'What? I can't bloody say that! Are you out of your mind daisy? Did you drink yesterday?' She panics through the phone but I can't answer her much because I already started to brush my teeth. 'Jus tewl him tha and I'll be there shwortley' I say through the foam in my mouth.
'What are you even..okay fine. Bye' she hangs up the phone and I quickly get ready.

I leave my house and before you know it I'm at the office and everyone is looking at me with wide eyes. Tamara rushes towards me as I walk towards my office. 'Where is he?' I ask. 'He's waiting in your office'
I walk in a fast pace to my office and when I'm finally there i open the door to find jax sitting on my desk chair waiting patiently.

'Never thought you'd be the one to be late, princess' he taps on my desk with a cheeky smirk.
'Did I just hear that right? He called you princess?' Tamara whispers in my ear.
I sigh and ask her to leave my office. As soon as she steps out, I walk to jax and take him by the arm pulling him off my chair. 'You can't just come here out of the blue and call me princess jax!' I tug on him but it's so hard to get him to stand up. 'Why not?' He stands up, towering over me.
I look up to his face and see the grimish smirk he has on.
'Wipe that smirk off your face! It's annoying me'
This makes his smirk turn into a grin.
I throw my bag to my desk and put my hands on my hip as I watch him stare at me.

'Why are you here?' I ask with a sigh
'I came to see you' he looks around my office.
'Seriously? You came all the way here, turned the whole office into a mayhem, scared my assistant, made me arrive to work early! Because you wanted to see me?!' I shout at him in a low tone so no one hears me.

'It is seven am, you should be at work anyway' he says sarcastically. God he's gonna be the death of me!
'Jax, you called me princess in front of my assistant!'
'What? Hasn't she ever been called such thing?'
'I don't fucking know!' I wave my hands in the air in frustration. His calm tone and manner is really starting to stress me out. If he keeps calling me princess in front of everyone in this building then I have a lot coming for me. I can't handle gossip stress at the moment. My breakup with Preston was enough of a gossip for the company to talk about, it lasted for six months for gods sake!

'Look, we just reunited three days ago after years of no contact. I don't even know how I feel about having you stand in front of me right now yet calling me princess like when we was-' I stop talking when I see the fire in his eyes. I rub my temple and shrug.
'When we was, what?' He says teasingly. I know he wants me to say 'when we was together' but that is not happening!
'It doesn't matter. Just stop calling me princess in front of other people. Especially other employees!'
I'm out of breath but nothing stops him from coming closer towards me. He steps towards me and I lose control of my breathing.
Abort situation now daisy
Abort! Abort! ABORT!
