Jac made her way into work that morning clutching a steaming cup of hot chocolate in her hand before she made her way to the lift pressing the button and waited impatiently for it to reach ground floor.
Before eventually it did and she headed inside the lift. Pressing the button for Darwin. Jac barely noticed that Jonny was present in the lift. It seemed he too was trying to avoid eye contact with her. Looking everywhere else apart from her herself. She didn't blame him after what had happened the previous week.
She had slapped him. And she didn't half regret it now. But Jonny had been asking for it. With what he had come out with. More to the point Jac regretted it. She wished she could just tell him what was wrong but she couldn't. She couldn't bring herself to tell him. Because it would destroy her.
The lift soon reached Darwin and both Jonny and herself got out. Jonny headed to his nurse's desk meanwhile Jac headed to her office but before she could do such a thing Mo stopped her in her tracks.
"You and Jonny really need to sit down and talk. Now I don't know what's gone on between you both but he's been in pieces lately. He wont admit it to me but he is. Jac whatever's going on, just talk to him. Let him understand" Mo exclaimed.
"He won't though. Now if you don't mind" Jac said walking away.
"Fine, but it's your loss. Jonny's a great man, you need to learn how to trust him. Talk to him" Mo finished as Jac walked away.
Shortly later Jonny was busying himself at his desk when Mo approached him before she sat herself down next to him before turning her attention to him.
"Jac told me to tell you, she wants to see you in her office." Mo said
"Really?" Jonny asked
"Yeah, she said it was urgent. You should go and see what she wants" Mo exclaimed.
Jonny thought about this for a few moments before sighing. Yes he was going to see what she wanted. Maybe it would be an apology for slapping him. He wasn't sure. However he got to his feet and left the desk. Unaware that Mo was following him and he knocked on the door. He heard Jac's tone granting permission.
"You wanted to see me?" Jonny asked.
"No I didn't" Jac said scornfully. Trying to hide the pleasure in her voice.
"But Mo said you wanted to-" Jonny trailed off.
Just then the office door slammed shut and the rattle of keys turning the lock.
"Mo, you let us out right now!" Jac said in a harsh tone.
"Nope, not till you guys have sorted things out! You might as well get comfortable because I won't be coming back for a few hours! Have fun" she called out before walking away a satisfied smile on her face.
"I really had no idea she was planning this" Jonny exclaimed as he sat himself down on the chair.
"Of course you didn't" Jac snapped.
"You know maybe we should use this time to talk." Jonny said
"There's nothing to talk about. You said it yourself we're done" Jac said scornfully.
"So we're just going to sit here in silence until eventually Mo is forced to let us out?" Jonny exclaimed.
Jac however didn't answer him. she just looked outside the window.
