Winslow
It's Friday, meaning it's Everett's birthday.
I knock on his door but no one answers. I knock again and when I get no response, I frown and walk to the office.
"Are you kidding me?" I cross my hands when I open the door to him working. He looks up from his computer and when he sees me he smiles. "What are you doing, Evy?"
"Working...?"
"It's your birthday."
"So?"
"You don't work on your birthday."
"Who says that?"
"Me."
"Then don't say it."
"Fine, I'm going to have breakfast. You stay here working." I open the door and I hear him chuckle,
"That's not gonna get me to come with you."
"I don't want you with me." I exit the room and I'm about to close the door when I realize I didn't wish him happy birthday yet.
That's okay, I can do that later.
Some time has passed and I'm walking around searching for Seo-Yeon, "Do you have anything tonight?" I ask once I spot her.
"A date with Cassius." She grins and I shake my head.
"You two are official now?"
"Yep." Cassius voice comes out of nowhere and I smile at the two. "Is it about his birthday? Thought you'd want some alone time." He smirks at me, holding his girl from her waist.
"What? It's not like that." I narrow my eyes at him and turn to Seo-Yeon, "Collect your man."
She laughs and pats me on the shoulder, "He's right. His parents are in Italy, Jasper's with his wife, me and Cassius are going to be away for the night. Take advantage of the situation girl."
I purse my lips. I wish I could. "Is it just me and him tonight?"
"That's what I think." She winks at me.
"Except from the chefs and maids." Cassius says and I get an idea.
"Okay, thank you guys. Have a great date." I smile at them and head to the big kitchen.
"Hello Mr. Dylan." I greet the chef and he smiles at me,
"Well hello there young lady, what brings you here?" He stops chopping celery and smiles at me.
"You know, I want to ask if you know what Everett's favorite food is? It's his birthday and if you don't mind, I'd like to cook tonight. You and Mr. Andrew should rest today. It's not a busy day since everyone's away."
"Oh well it's okay sweetie, I get paid to do this I don't need to rest."
"I insist. I can cook don't worry."
"Well okay then, I'm only doing this because it's my anniversary with my wife tonight and I want to be home." He wipes his hands and takes off his apron, "Thank you so much sweetie. Oh and his favorite food is chicken pasta."
"Great thank you, see you tomorrow." I kindly smile at him and head to the change rooms for the maids. I tell them to rest tonight, Everett's command. It's not actually, but whatever.
Everett
Where the heck is she? The fact that it's my birthday doesn't mean she doesn't have to work.
Okay actually there's not much work to do since everyone's away but I just need an excuse to see her. The house is dead silent and when I'm about to stand up and search for her the door opens, revealing her in a cream crop top and grey sweats. She's just fucking with me at this point.
