IN THE LONG RUN (BOOK 2 OF BAR BLUES!)

Chapter 9: I am glad son...

George's Pov:
"Hey Bob's what time are you getting off work today?"

"Around five ish why?"

"Wanted to know if you had enough time to come to the gym after?"

"Erm hang on little me check..." he replies as I hear scuffling through the phone "All good give me an hour to get ready, call Layla and I'll meet you at your's at six"

"Okay thanks mate see you then!" I am about to put the phone down when I quickly ask  "Bob's! You coming tomorrow as well?"

"Probably otherwise you will force me to walk down more flights of stairs!" he replies yelling through the phone.

"Hey it's no my fault your the one who only has one leg and you were the one who said you wanted extra training!"

"I know but it kills!" he whines in reply.

"It's supposed to you idiot!" I chuckle.

"Alright got to go or my boss will think I just talk to you all day!"

"You wouldn't be able to deal with all my greatness!"

"Course not!" Bobby replies sarcastically.

"Alright see you at six mate!"

"See yah don't wanna be yah!" he quickly replies hanging up.

D**k but I still love him always will. It's weird I never thought of Bobby as more than a friend or a brother. You know how some people know when they get a crush on like there best friend I never did.I mean yeah it skimmed my mind of what it would be like if I liked him but I never really thought of him in that way.

I am on my way back to work at the moment. I work at a Law firm. I know not what you would of have expected but I love it, I love being inside a court room protecting my clients it gives me a sense of self in who I am. Bobby does the same job but is higher than me I am not sure how all I know is that he doesn't work with clients but huge companies. My firm isn't a big named brand like Bob's its just a basic little clinic to help the small people of New York. I stop of at coffee stand outside when I hear a loud buzzing noise come from my pocket. Layla.

Layla's Pov:
I ring George as I am worried about Bobby his been off ever since the walk through the park. Is he having Secound thoughts? Have I done something wrong?

"Hi sis whats up?"

"Can you meet today?"

"I don't know why?"

"I need to talk to you?" I reply sheepishly.

"What's wrong? Are you okay?" his voices has begun to shake.

"No no everything's fine I just want to talk to you!"

"Oh okay you had me worried then, I can see if I can get work off an hour early but that's it until after I go to the gym with Bobby"

"Okay please try and your going to the gym with Bobby, he hasn't said anything about that to me?"

"He was going to ring you afterwork as we were leaving at six. Don't worry sis"

"Okay thanks George let me know about meeting later today"

"Umm..okay Layla see yah hopefully later and you can tell me why your acting weird"

"Okay bye George" I quickly hang up.

George can read me like an open book and I couldn't break down right now. I need to be happy it's my day and I will be happy to celebrate it with my friends. Maybe I am just overreacting however I don't know if I am doing the right thing I mean I am meant to be marrying this man. I walk back inside the café with my head held high not letting anything get to me until I speak with George later.
