Chapter 18. Gone Boy.

Four days later.

I pull my robe tighter around me and peek out the window. I turn around and bump into Masons shirtless chest.

"Jordyn, you don't need to be paranoid."

I shiver, "I just feel like I'm being watched."

He wraps his arms around my back, bringing me into a warm embrace. "Babe, I got you."

I grin and wrap my arms around his back and lay my head on his chest. "I know you do. I'm just still shook up about it."

"I don't know why the hell he would be watching us, he's just a creepy little ass perv." His back tenses up.

I stand on my tip toes and look into his beautiful green eyes. "Its so hot when you get all worked up."

He looks down at me and bites his lip, "Really?"

I nod, "Uh-huh."

He lifts me up and I wrap my legs around his waist. He kisses my jaw and slowly works his way to my collarbone, I run my fingers through his soft hair. The door bell rings, Mason sighs heavily and puts me back down. He walks over to the door and opens it.

Woods walks in while tapping away at his cell phone.

Mason rolls his eyes and shuts the door. "Yeah come on in!"

"Yeah thanks."

He few minutes of silence goes by, "So are you going to tell us why you're here?" Mason questions, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Yes," He places his phone in the inside of his jacket and slaps his hands together. "I have great news. Sydney Brown dropped the lawsuit, she confessed that it never happened. The school is very angry about it and they want you to head down there, they're going to apologize and offer you your job back. So get dressed... It looks like I might have interrupted something?"

Mason and I look at each other, I ignore his question. "Wow, thats amazing news!" I wrap my arm around Mason's and grab his hand.

"Yeah it is. I really wasn't expecting that."

"Go get dressed, get your job back. You still want it, right?" I ask.

"Yeah I do."

"Okay, well chop chop man, get dressed. We need to get there pronto!" Woods tells him.

He nods and walks into the bedroom.

Woods grabs his sunglasses off the collar of his burgundy shirt and places them on. "How are you feeling since the accident?"

"Still pretty sore and in a little bit of pain, but a lot better now."

"Hey thats good, I'm glad your feeling better. How long did the doctor say it would take your ribs to heal?"

"About six weeks." I pull my robe a little tighter around me. "Thank you Woods. You've been a really great lawyer and friend to us."

He waves his hand in front of him and smiles. "Its nothing, really."

I grin, "Are you kidding? You've done so much." Mason walks out of the room, tying a tie around his neck. "You look nice."

He smiles slightly, planting a kiss on my forehead. "Thanks babe."

Woods grabs the door knob, "You look superb, now lets go. We'll be back in a bit. Dinner is on me?"

"Um no." I shake my head. "It's on me. What do you boys want?"
