A/N: the rest of the story is gonna be Nathan's POV . Everybody deserves a happy ending . ;)

I was in a current meeting , and there were talking about a charity event I need to attend to. It's gonna be held at Mayflower Theater. I walked out of the meeting and went shopping for my suite for the event .

My company was donating a lot of money, and I wanted to look good while doing so. I called up my favorite friend Walter to hook me up with something nice. On the phone, I told what all I wanted. Just a plain black and white suite with gold buttons and FoxWorth Enterprise written along the lining of the neck . He said it will be ready in three days.

On my way home I decided to stop at the Michael Kors store and I bought a gold watch . I was finally home and I started on my speech for the event. I didn't really know what I was going to say, but it has to be something. I didn't want to look bad. But a certain person came to mind, and I called her. "Hey April, do you think you can help me with something?", I said while typing up ideas. "Yeah sure thing, I'm on my way." , she said quickly and hung up the phone.

Well that wasn't rude. A couple of minutes I hear my doorbell ring and here walks in with April with two cups of coffee in her hands. She handed me one, and I took it gradually with a widened smile. "So what do you need help with.", she said taking a sip of her coffee and sitting down next to me. "So I have this charity event at the Mayflower Theater in a couple of days and I need to come up with a speech.", I said looking up at her and taking a sip of my coffee.

"Well, first things first. What type of charity is it, what's the cause?", she said getting up and pacing back and forth then turning to me, while raising her eyebrow up. "We are raising and donating money to the Children's Hospital. Over $2 million.", I said looking up at her. Her eyes widened and I knew she had an idea.

"Your speech needs to be powerful, has some type of pity , oh and.... Ummm it has to has a life lesson , like a lesson. Here.", she said setting her cup down and grabbing my laptop typing things up. I looked her while she typed , and I'll sure you that I saw her eyes twinkle.

An Hour Later.......

"And.... We are... finally finished.", she said helping me type up the finishing touches. "Thank you April, your a hero. I don't know what I would do with you.", I said looking deeply into her eyes and letting off my signature smile. "Your welcome Nathan. Anytime.", she said while grabbing her jacket off the car and slipping it on.

I gave her a confused look. "Wait. Your not staying?", I said jumping up out of my chair. "Nathan, I'm a married woman, I'm not able to stay out late. And in plus, I have two children who need me.", she said walking to the elevator while I followed up behind her. "But hey, why don't you come to the event? To support me you know? Bring anybody and have a safe trip home.", I said pressing the "down" button. She sent me a smile, adjusted her jacket, then the elevator doors closes and off she went.

I know what you're thinking. I don't have a crush on April and I don't like her anymore. She's a close friend now, and close friends don't like each other. I'm moved on. My phases left, and I'm living like a champ so cheer me on. I haven't thought about April anyway, but a friend. I went to the kitchen and threw away the coffee cup. Then I grabbed an apple and bit into it.

Another day another play.

The Next Day.....

I headed to the office, and fixed up my tie. My assistant came up to me with a binder in her arms and handed me a coffee. . "Here let me.", she said setting the binder down and fixing my tie. I removed her hands from around my neck and stepped away from her . Every since I've hired her, she has been acting like she had a crush on me. Bringing things I didn't ask for and always In my face smiling.

It was like she was obsessed with me in a way. "That's fine, Cathy I got it.", I said adjusting the tie and walking away. "Sir, do you need anything else?", she said standing in front of me. I huffed a breath of frustration and shook my head no. Then, I stepped aside and walked away. That girl really gives me the creeps.

I headed to my office and took a sip of my coffee, minutes later I got really dizzy then my stomach started hurting. A while later everything went black and I saw Cathy smiling at me.
