A Baby Changes Everything

Chapter 1- Fatefully Meeting
Cassie Rain, if she was honest, was looking for love. She was twenty-six for good sakes! She wanted a boyfriend but instead got one night stands, which annoyed her deeply, and to make it even worse the temp agency she worked for had given her a job working for Labour Leader Jo Porter's alongside her sister. I mean she hated her sister Kirsty; Kirsty had a boyfriend, something Cassie wanted!
Danny Foster on the other hand was completely hopeless when it came to girls, relationships and sex. He was an MP researcher, no girl wanted a guy like that. Not even Kirsty wanted him, she wanted his brother Scott instead. Danny really wanted a girl. He was romantic, sweet and he'd protect her but he was twenty-six now, if it didn't happen soon it would never happen.
"Oh fucking hell." Kirsty said, slamming the phone down. Danny looked up from his computer, Jo was in her office.
"What's up?" Danny asked.
"My Bloody sister just got a job working for Jo!." Kirsty said with an angry sigh.
"Didn't know you had a sister, Kirsty." Danny said.
"She doesn't like to talk about me." Danny looked towards the door and saw Cassie standing their, her mousy blond hair was pinned up.
"Speak of the devil. Danny, this is my sister, Cassie. Cassie, this is Danny Foster, Scott's brother." Kirsty said. Danny stood up and offered Cassie his hand.
"It's nice to meet you, Cassie." Danny said with a smile. Cassie smiled back and shook his hand.
"Nice to meet you to, Danny." Cassie said, smiling.
"You must be Cassie Rain. I'm Jo Porter, your new boss." Jo said interrupting the moment that Danny and Cassie we're having. Danny went back to his desk. Cassie offered Jo her hand.
"It's lovely to meet you, Jo." Cassie said with a smile, looking at Jo, though out the corner of her eye she was looking at Danny.
"Danny, will you give Cassie an introduction into what we're working on at the moment please?" Jo asked. Cassie smiled.
"Of course." Danny said, Cassie walked over to his desk and sat down next to him.
Danny felt strange, but it was a good strange. A strange feeling he'd never had before. and the feeling had happened the minute Cassie walked through the door. He couldn't help as he talked over the new plan with her that maybe something might happen between them but then he saw Kirsty and he knew that was impossible.
"Danny." Cassie said with a shy tone.
"Yeah, Cassie." Danny said, typing at his computer as Cassie sat in the chair next to him.
"Do you fancy going for a drink tonight? Just me and you? I mean if you're busy it's ok." Cassie asked. Danny smiled."I'd love to go for a drink with you." Danny said, smiling.
"Danny, when you're done flirting with Cassie get back to work please. And Cassie you're here to work not make lovey dovey faces at my researcher." Jo said as she walked past. Kirsty sighed, it was so obvious that the two were flirting.
"Sorry, Jo." Cassie and Danny said together. Cassie stood up.
"Do you want a coffee?" Cassie asked Danny and Kirsty.
"Yes please." Danny replied. Kirsty just nodded. Cassie left the office. Kirsty looked at Danny.
"What are you looking at?" Danny asked.
"That was shameless flirting." Kirsty said.
"It's none of your business. Yes, I like her ok." Danny said, Kirsty sighed.
"You've just met her, Dan. You don't know anything about her." Kirsty said.
"Well I'll get to know her." Danny said and he went back to his work. Kirsty stood up and left the room to find her sister.
"Stay away from, Danny." Kirsty said as she leant against the wall as Cassie walked past.
"I don't take orders from you so fuck off." Cassie said and she walked into the office placing Danny's coffee in front of him.
"There you go." Cassie said with a small smile.
"Thanks." Danny said, smiling back. Cassie sat her desk. Danny sipped his coffee. Kirsty came back into the room and watched as Danny and Cassie had quick glances at each other. While on her lunch break Kirsty decided she needed Scott's help to stop Danny and Cassie ending up together.
"Alright, babe." Scott said as he answered his phone to Kirsty.
"I need your help." Kirsty said with a sigh.
"Alright what's up? What can the amazing Scott help you with today?" Scott asked with a small laugh.
"My Sister just got a job working for Jo and guess who's she flirting with?" Kirsty said and it didn't take Scott long to work it out.
"Dan. She's flirting with Dan." Scott said with a sigh.
"Yep and he's flirting back, it's just wrong." Kirsty said with an angry sigh.
"Kirsty, Dan's not had a girlfriend in ten years. If he likes your sister I'm not gonna stop him. Sorry babe. Leave them be. You never know what will happen. I gotta go. See ya later, love you." Scott said, hanging up.
"Thanks, Scott. Thanks for nothing!" Kirsty said angrily under her breath.
Another day at the office drew to a close. Cassie's first day had gone ok apart from the evil looks she got from her sister every time she talked to Danny.
"You ready to go to the pub?" Danny asked. Cassie stood up and threw on her coat. Danny and Cassie we're the only ones left at work. Kirsty had gone ages ago to see Scott.
"Yeah, I'm ready." Cassie said and with that her and Danny walked out of the office and down to the pub. Neither of them had ever believed in fate but at this moment in time they believed in fatefully meeting.
