“Girl, I want all the details. Spill them now!” Amy calls as she approaches our joint desks.

“Details on what?” I asked not looking up from the computer screen.

“Don’t give me that shit. Mr hunk, who else.”

I turn to look at her as she fans her face with her hand grinning.

“If you don’t want him sent him my way.”

“Keep your hands to yourself he’s my hunk,” I admit out loud for the first time.

“I knew it! So how long did he stay to look after you?” she asks.

“All night,” I admit quietly. “And he cooked, cleaned, took care of Binx and made me sleep in his shirt when he realised my nightie was one of Paul’s old T-shirts.”

“Fuck that’s hot,” Amy swoons as she falls into her chair. “Please tell me he’s a shit lay because I can’t cope if he’s that perfect.”

“I’m telling you nothing.” I stand up and start working through the returns. “What are you doing here anyway?”

Amy spins around in her chair to look at me.

“The book I’ve been waiting for came in,” she answers as she starts looking through the pile, I spent the afternoon organising. I slap her hand away and point to her desk.

“I put it in your drawer. Now stop messing with these!” I snap. Amy smiles as she looks at me.

“Is that a tie around your waist?”

“Yep,” I answer grinning at her as I lean back against the desk. “He’s wearing the shirt I slept in and I’m wearing his tie,” I explain.

“I don’t know if that’s hot or sweet?” I’m about to tell her how hot it all made me when I hear a voice behind me.

“Excuse me.”

“Hi, can I help you?” I asked softly as I turn around with a smile.

“I have a delivery for Sadie Wright.”

“That’s me,” I answer frowning. I’m not expecting anything to be delivered today.

“Great, this is for you,” she hands me a bouquet of sunflowers.

“Oh!” I’m speechless as I look at the flowers in my hand, “thank you!” I call as the woman heads for the front door.

“Is that from him?” Amy sighs as I open the card attached to the flower and burst out laughing.

Sweetheart,

Something to brighten up your day as much as you have brightened mine.

See you tonight.

I pull out my phone and hand it to her.

“Snap a picture for me,” I hold the flowers under my nose and smell them. Amy’s face lights up as she holds my phone up and snaps a couple of pictures. I take it back and quickly send one to Jay.

Sadie:Thank you for my flowers, they are my favourites, how did you know? xx
