"How did the meeting with the editor go?" Kori asked, a yawn escaping her mouth."Good." Paisley replied, grabbing both cups and heading back to the snug embrace of the sofa. She passed a cup to Kori who raised a brow at her."Just 'good'? Did it not go well?"Paisley shot her a goofy smile and earned an eyeroll. "If it went well, just say so! Stop goofing around", both girls chuckled." Sorry. Sorry. It went great. I'll be meeting with Carter Reid next week"" Oh my gosh!", Kori beamed, " That's amazing news!""

So you're unemployed?"She shot him a glare and her eyes widened in realisation."My bag of congratulatory treats!!", She shrieked in horror. " Your bag of what? ", He queried with an amused grin.*Urgh! I must've dropped it when I ran after his car!*"Gosh, I have to go back and get it?!", She whined under her breath.

Chapter 3"Why is it so hard to find something to wear?!", Paisley yelled and sat on the pile of clothes on the floor.Kori stuffed her mouth with pringles, watching her friend like one would watch reality shows. "Why on earth would you choose to wait till the day before the big meeting to pick an outfit? It's on you"" I was busy!", Paisley defended." Busy doing literally nothing. That's less than an excuse""I was lazy okay? Besides, who picks an outfit a week before meetings"" People who aren't lazy?"Paisley shot her a playful glare and layed on the floor with a sigh.She stared at the ceiling, hearing the disturbing sound of Kori munching on pringles. Her mind drifted off to a certain man and his adorable child.She felt the strange urge to go out to the same cafe in hopes that she'd meet them again. Why? She had no idea. Probably because

Chapter 6Carter opened his eyes to Eli by his side; placing a wet towel on his forehead. It looked bright out by the look of the sunlight seeping in through the opened curtains."I don't know what I was expecting, but this is completely different", he said with a raspy voice. " Isn't Paisley supposed to be the person by my side?"Eli gave him a deadpan look. " Ms. Brooke was by your side all night. I arrived by 5am with a doctor and had you treated. *You're welcome*"" All night?", Carter repeated, ignoring Eli's other statement. " She didn't sleep?""I don't know. What I do know is that you're stressed and it's what caused your fever. You need to rest well.

Eli called to inform him that they had started the hiring process for an assistant who'd take half his workload, although, not without his permission.Feeling a little sore and in desperate need of fresh air, Carter suggested that all three of them head to the park for a quiet and nice picnic, to which Karter bounced up and down on his chair excitedly.The next morning, Paisley woke up really early to prepare the lunchbox for the picnic and was greeted with Carter who exited his room quietly."Good morning", she greeted with a smile and he smiled back. " Morning. What are we making?", He asked, rubbing his hands together.Paisley rose a brow. "We?""Yup. We. I cook too, remember?"She rolled her eyes. " Yeah, but you're-"" Healthy enough to make simple meals", he cut in with a smirk.

"Are you tiptoeing right now?""Gah!" Paisley screamed and whirled around to face a dressed Carter. As usual, Carter had his suit on and his car key in his hand.She planted the heels of her feet to the ground and shook her head. "No"He smirked at this and took a step towards her, prompting her to move back. "That" he said, pointing at her with an even wider smirk."You're avoiding me""I'm not" she shot back. "It's kind of obvious. You keep shuffling backwards" Paisley stopped in her tracks and forced a smile."You should head to work. You'll be late""I can spare a couple minutes" he shrugged and slipped his hands in his pockets.
