Chapter 7: On the house

It has been a few weeks since I was released from the hospital and most things have been going quit normal. I get up in the morning go to work then go home and hang out with Dominic until I get tired and go to bed or Aiden comes home. Yes he has his own place but he said that he was having it renovated for more space since we will be living together now that we are engaged to get married. Most of the time I am in bed by time Aiden gets back. He has got a new job which causes him to stay late most of the time and I have to get up early so we don't really see each other that often.

But today we have made plans. He said that he would take the day off and come pick me up from work then we would go out for dinner. It isn't going to be anything special but it is still time we get to spend together.

So right now I am getting ready to head to work. I just threw on my work attire which consists of a pair of dress pants and a nice blouse. Now I know what you are thinking, but because I am an owner of the bakery means that I don't just work in the kitchen. Yes I work in there but when I am in there I always wear one of the lab coat looking things (HONESTLY DOES ANYONE KNOW THE NAME OF THOSE?) to make sure my clothe stay clean.

I don't put on that much makeup just some eye shadow and eyeliner. I have clear skin so I don't like to wear foundation or any of the other things like that because I would kind of like to keep my clear skin and I have long eyelashes so I don't wear mascara that often either. Then I put my hair up into a high ponytail and head to work.

Like every other time once I get there, there is a line of people waiting for me to open up. I usually get here around 4 or 5 to help with baking but after the accident I have been letting other people do the baking and I get here at opening time which is 6 am. I open the doors and the line of people comes in from the outside in attempt to get some of our brownies before we sell out.

We have the best in the state!

I greet some of the regulars and my employees then walk back to my office. Most of the time I just sit back here and do paper work but every once in a while I might go out to the front and help or they might have some kind of emergency which doesn't really happen but today seemed to be one of those rare occasions.

Jess one of my workers rushed into my office looking kind of star struck and out of breath like she had ran so stood up and walked over to her.

Placing my hands on her shoulders to get her to look at me, "is everything alright?"

"Yes... but ma'am... someone is requesting to speak to you."

"Ok? But why are you out of breath?"

"We had to hold back the men with the cameras and no one wanted to come get you so after I got someone to lock the doors for me I had to run back here to get you."

Men with cameras? What is going on out there?

"Well let's go and see what's going on out there." I straighten out my posture and my shirt I walked out to the front expecting the worse but found myself instead being star struck like the others.

The men with cameras were the paparazzi and news crew and the person who wanted to speak with me was 2 men dressed in suits one which I could not stand and the other the one I admire for talent.

Once they spotted you could see the smirk grow on their faces from my reaction along with everyone else that was in here.

Jayce was the first to speak, "Well nice to see that you actually showed up we were beginning to think you were going to stay hidden in the back."

"Well when a worker comes into my office freaking out I had to find out what was going on before I came out here so forgive me for taking a while. May I ask why you are here?" I looked around, "and drawing all this attention to my bakery?" I threw my arms out to draw their attention to all the people with cameras and aw struck faces.

"Well if I remember correctly, when I helped save your life you promised me that I could have whatever on the house." He smirked

"Well it was more like you saved my purse not my life but yes I did say you and your sister could have anything you want on the house but I refuse to give anything to that man" I pointed at Mr. Cooper who was just standing there looking like he was getting more annoyed by the minute.

"Miss. Carter paying for what I want does not bother me I have enough money to buy you out in my back pocket so if this is your form of revenge or just because you do not like me, understand that it does not faze me."

"yeah ok, will you two just pick out what you want so my workers can stop drooling over you guys and get back to work and so the cameras leave. Speaking of cameras why are there news channels out there?"

"Well we wanted to do something nice for you and plus everyone wants to see Sebastian and myself walk into a small town place like this." Jayce walks off to go and pick out what he wants and Mr. Cooper just stands there.

"Can I help you with something?" I ask annoyed.

"I would like my regular." He says.

"But you have never been in here before so how would you have a regular?"

"Well you see my assistant comes in here every day and gets me a coffee and brownies. And I must say I was never a sweet person until I had some of your brownies."

"Well I am sorry but..." I trailed off when I see Jess run up to me with a coffee cup in her hand and a box of brownies in the other.

Mr. Cooper smirks at me and taking the bag from her saying thank you while winking at here making her blush and scurry off back into the kitchen.

"Well it seems like she knew what my regular was how come you didn't?"

Before I got the chance to reply Jayce showed up and the girl who had made his order for him showed up with boxes in her hand. She set then down on the counter next to me then took off to go help the next customer. Jayce waited while Mr. Cooper paid then they left.

Most of the camera men followed and left after they did. Only a few stayed for the whole day but I don't think they took very many pictures.

Not long after I closed up everyone had left. There were no more camera men or news men so I sat outside and waited for Aiden to show up. He said he would be here by 4:20 and it was 4:15 so while I waited I checked my instagram and Facebook.

By time I checked my phone it was almost 5. I tried to call him to see where he was but he didn't answer. I called 5 more times and still got no answer. I was starting to worry.

He is never this late.

***

Well we will find out why Aiden never showed in the next chapter but till then tell me what you think happened.

also this many really suck because i was playing with my dog and watching supernatural  while typing this 

Another thing is 

so you know how they say women belong in the kitchen but when you think of a professional chef you think a man 

what is with that?

well anyway
