Chapter 25
“And he calls us lovebirds,” I said quietly, and Rocky flipped me the finger again and walked out.
“Okay, well, I’m going to get dressed and head out soon too. Rosy, please let your boyfriend use your bathroom next time. My girl time has been interrupted today” she walked towards her room. Vince and I laughed.
yet.
“Hmm, maybe I can stay in your bed next time too” he winked at me, and I shook my head.
“Yeah, Nah. My bed is mine only. You can stay on the couch” I sat and got up to get another coffee for myself. I wasn’t ready for that step with Vince
“Don’t make coffee. Shall we have breakfast before I go?” He asked. I nodded and pulled out my phone, and dialed Lilly’s number.
“Morning, boss. Everything okay?” Her chipper voice answered.
“Morning! Yes, totally fine. Can you please do me a favor? I’ll be a little late, and I think I have a meeting at 8:00 am. Can you please reschedule it for another time during the day?”
“Yes, sure, boss, no worries.” She replied, and I thanked her and hung up.
“Perks of being your boss,” I said to Vince and put my phone away.
He laughed and got up and came towards me. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me close.
“How are we going to manage this? I’m going back today, and it’s not like you live 4 minutes away. You live 4 hours away.” He asked.
“Well, it’s still not too bad. We can see each other on the weekends. You come here one weekend, and I can come there the next weekend,” I suggested. “Keep in mind that I don’t have a car, so I’ll be borrowing your sisters” I laughed.
“Well, maybe this way she will come home more often to visit mum and dad,” he replied and chuckled.
“See, they will love me even more!” I replied and gave him a big smile. He smiled back at me and quickly pressed his lips to mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck, and we stood there for a few minutes, just kissing. I melted into his arms, and he tightened his arms around me.
My phone started to ring, so I broke away from the kiss, and Vince whined. I quickly looked at the caller ID. It was Blake.
Why was he calling me this early?
“Sorry, I gotta take this” I moved away from Vince. “Morning Blake, is everything okay?”
“Morning, Rosy. Sorry if I’m disturbing you, but Lilly just called to inform me that you’ve moved our 8 am meeting” he sounded annoyed.
Oh, fuck! Was my meeting with him!?
“Oh, I’m so sorry, Blake. I didn’t realize my meeting was with you this morning. Don’t worry, be in at 8 for the meeting. I honestly hadn’t checked who my meeting was with,” I replied and facepalmed myself.
“Oh, great. I’m actually going to Huntly this afternoon and need to catch up with you before I go. Sorry if I’ve interrupted anything,” he said, his voice still annoyed.
“It’s okay, Blake. I’ll see you soon. Bye,” and I hung up.
I turned to Vince, and he didn’t have a happy look.
*I’m sorry, babe, but I gotta go.” I walked to him and hugged him. He hugged me back and kissed my head.
“I’ll make it up to you when you come back in the weekend” I laughed, and he laughed with me.

“Something tells me my cars are about to be doing some good mileage” he laughed a little more.

I pulled away and grabbed my things, and we walked out. We got to Vince’s car, and he even opened the door for me to get in. The short drive to work was quiet. He held my hand the whole way and kissed it now and then. I blushed every time he did.
We pulled up in front of the Cooper & Co building, and he turned off the car.
“Text me when you get home” I picked up my stuff.
“Yes, boss,” he laughed. “Just like your getting used to things with me, I’m gonna have to get used to things with you.”

I laughed and leaned over to kiss him. He cupped my face with his hands and caressed my cheeks. I was going to miss him.
“I’ll see you on the weekend then?” I asked softly.
