I'm in big trouble here. Thought Jac to herself. She had just dropped Emma off at the crèche , on the way Emma had babbled non stop about Fletch and his kids. Despite what she might be feeling there were kids involved now. That was a big responsibility and potential disaster given her track record .
Perhaps if she pretended last night didn't happen it would go away. Yes that was her plan
Fletch appeared at her office door at lunch time as they had both been busy in the morning .
"Got time to eat Ms Naylor "
Heart flip. Her plan was not going to work!
"What did you have in mind Mr Fletcher "
" Well I made extra sandwiches this morning we could go to the quiet bench and try not to annoy each other like last time?"
He had nonchalantly mentioned 'this morning '
"Well that sounds too good to miss. Let's go"
They sat on the bench in the warm spring sunshine. Comfortable silence between them whilst they ate and took in the fresh air and break from the hectic pace inside those walls.
"This is nice. We should do it more often" said Fletch easily
"Mmm yeah"
"Jac"
"Yes"
"How did you feel this morning" Fletch, addressing the elephant in the room
