I see megs text message and head for the elevator. I go up a floor and walk over to her. "He in the office with your dad?" I ask her. She nods her head. I carry on down the hall to his office. A million and one things are flying through my head as I step into regs office. I sit on the desk and wait for him to come out of Joel's office.
20 minutes pass by before reg comes through the door. "Fuck me finally" I exclaim turning to face him. "You make it sound like we had arranged to meet here" he says I sigh deeply. Still deliberating how to tell him"Listen" she says. He chuckles. I look at him confused. "Your gonna tell me you and Meg are a thing and that you've moved on" he says. I raise an eyebrow at him. "How the fuck did you know" I ask him. He chuckles lightly and smiles. "I was in the elevator with a very flustered Meg, who was coming back from your floor and since Gemma was in the lift with me and she's married I put 2 and 2 together" he says. I chuckle lightly surprised that it was this easy. "Fair enough" I reply.
"Can we just be friends?" I ask him. He chuckles. "Yeah sure although I won't be here for much longer" he says to me. I look at him perplexed trying to figure out what he means. "I'm leaving to work with my dad again" he says. I nod my head. "So when do you go?" I ask him. He smiles at me. "Well the office building will be done next month so soon ish" he says. I nod my jeans and wrap my arms around reg. "Staff night out tonight you and Rachel should come" I say to him. He nods his head. "Maybe I'll come along but uh good luck with Meg" he says. I smile and start to leave. "Thank you" I whisper. I close the door and head back to my floor.
The clock reaches lunch time when Gemma rushes over to my office with Meg in tow. "Reg is leaving without saying goodbye" Gemma says a we rush out the building. "REG" Meg shouts. He turns around and we bombard him with a big hug. "You really thought you could get away without saying goodbye huh" Gemma says. "Didn't want to make you guys cry" he says. I feel a tear roll down my cheek. "See someone's crying already" he says. Eventually we set him free. "Good luck" Meg says. "Good luck to fucking you lot without me" he says. Giggling we head back into the office when I remember the night out. I run back over to reg. "Don't forget tonight " I say to him before he gets into his car
