We'll figure it out





Serena and I both waved through the front window of my Black Range Rover to her family who stood in the drive way with forced smiles, waving right back. We hadn't been on the road for more than five minutes before the faint sound of sniffling filled my ears, causing me to look over at Serena quietly sobbing to herself in the passenger seat. "Hey, you okay?" I took my free hand, the one not on the wheel, to rub in small circles on her back in a comforting manner. She nodded then wiped a falling tear with the ends of her sweat shirt that was pulled down around her wrist and clutched into the tightness of her hand, "I'll be okay."
Minutes felt like hours for the rest of the car ride back to the warehouse. I hadn't seen anyone there in an entire week, but mostly I was excited to see my fiance, who apparently had a surprise waiting for me when I got back.

Paisley bursts through the bulky door that lead into Jason's room and her grin faltered when she realized Jason wasn't actually there. "Jase?" She questioned, shuffling through the dorm, peaking into the bathroom, closet, and his office. Her face became confused when she noticed a door that she was sure had never been there before. "In here," That husky voice captured her attention from behind the door that masked God knows what. She hesitantly pushed opened the door and was immediately awestruck when she came into perfect view of two white cribs, one with a blue blanket and the other with a pink. The white cribs lined with matching ribbon to the selected blankets. The walls were painted a pale yellow, a neutral color for a girl and boy room, but still a color that represented the innocence of a child. There was of course a changing table that matching both the cribs, a white rocking chair, and two separate dressers. Her eyes then landed upon Jason. He looked tired and worn out, yet still as flawless as ever.
Paisley stood in the door way, stunned. "What in the--" Her voice was cut off by Jason's, "If you don't like it, too bad." She couldn't help but let the giggle and grin shine through as she stepped further into the room and took in the beauty of his work, "I love it." Jason smiled proudly and reached out to slip both index fingers through two belt loops on either side of Paisley's jeans, he drug her body closer, effortlessly. Once he was close enough, he ducked his head down and pressed his lips onto hers in an aggressive way.
Soon after, Paisley was wandering the room, and falling even more in love with her surroundings. He seemed to of thought of everything, which made sense because everything Jason seemed to be involved with worked out perfectly. However, this was a much more delicate situation than his normal 'blow shit up' plan. "And look at this," Jason began as he trailed over to the other door on the opposite wall in which she had come from. He opened the door to reveal Paisley old room, showing the girl that the baby room linked Paisley's and Jason's rooms. "I'm quite impressed," Paisley made her way back to Jason who stood with an amused expression.

Jason hand slammed down against his desk in frustration as he held the phone tightly to his ear, "Figure it out." He commanded in his regular threatening tone he seemed to use with everyone other than Paisley. "Boss, we can't make the shipment in time." Jason had a reputation to upkeep along with the business and everyone knew to get shit done when it was supposed to be done if you worked for Jason McCann. "You have two days to make it work, or consider yourself a dead man." Jason threatened into the speaker of the phone before ending the call.
"Baby, come to bed," Paisley's groggy voice filled the air as she came over to the door, and took in the presence of the tired man. He nodded in defeat and got up from his chair. He pulled Paisley to the bed gently and fell back into the sheets, allowing her body to collapse onto his. "Hey Jase?" She chirped from her lips that pressed slightly against his chest as it rose and fell continuously. He hummed in response. "You realize the babies are due in two months and we haven't even come up with names yet?"
"Hey, Pais?"
"Yeah?"
"We'll figure it out."
