As Joe approached the office he saw Dianne sat on a bench; he stopped the car quickly and rolled down the window down.

"Di" Joe called and her head shot up making direct eye contact with him, she gathered her belongings and climbed into Joe's car.  

"What's up? Are you okay? Have you been crying?" Joe asked trying to get all of his questions out.

"Joe I don't really know how to say this and I am so sorry, no I am not sorry it was both of us. Joe I am-" At that exact moment perfectly timed like in the cheesy romantic films where something interrupts  a big moment. Well it was like that, and the thing that disturbed them: that was Joe's phone ringing.

"I have to take this hold on" Joe said putting a hand on Dianne's knee, his phone was connected to the speaker system in the car and so Dianne could hear everything but Joe to which Dianne's surprise didn't seem to care, even if it was his nana who he as talking too.

"Right Di Zoe has been texting me to hurry up and get to work, would you mind if I dropped you a my place? I've got one meeting it will last 40 minutes max then I will be straight home and we can talk"

"Yeah that's okay" Dianne said almost trying to reassure herself. When they arrived back at Joe's he put on the Tv and showed Dianne how to work it before giving her forehead a quick peck and dashing out the door. 

Dianne tried not to make herself feel at home while Joe was gone because she had no intention of staying, she just wanted to get back to bed and never get out again forgetting the world around her but she couldn't she had to be a responsible adult after all she was pregnant and she had to face up to that.  

"Dianne, I'm back I have brought coffee!" Joe said closing the door with his foot. 

"Oh erm thanks Joe" Dianne said awkwardly knowing she couldn't drink it.

"So what was it you needed to tell me?" he said sitting down at the breakfast bar.

"Joe I'm-"
