Chapter 1
One day Claire Fletcher is sitting at her desk at Johnson High School when she gets a knock on the door.
"Come in!" she says
The door opens and Mr Adam Braverman peaks his head in.
"Adam!" Claire says and smiles
"hey." he says
"come on in and take a seat." she tells him
"okay thanks." he says and shuts the door and walks over and sits down in a chair in front of her desk
"so um h...how are you?" she wonders
"I'm good; And you?" he asks her
"fine also." she tells him
"good." he says
"yeah." she says
"and um how's uh Rory?" he wonders
"well she's okay." she tells him
"what do you mean?" he wonders
"well hunnie she's just been stressed about school and Harvard and stuff." she tells him
"yeah, but that's like 3 years away." he says
"I know I've told her that." she tells him
Adam just rubs his scruffy face.
Claire just watches him.
"so?" she wonders
"so what?" he wonders back
"so I was wondering if you wanted to maybe come over for dinner tonight and spend some time with her?" Claire wonders
"really?" he confirms back
"I mean yeah, if you want to." she tells him
"oh I want too." he tells her
"good, I'm making my chicken,pasta, and brocoli in that cheese sauce thing again." she tells him
"my favorite.' he says
Claire just smiles "good." she says
"okay I better get back to class." he lets her know and stands up
"okay have a good day Adam." she tells him and stands up
"yeah you too." he says and gets close to her
Claire kisses him on the lips fast and smiles and watches him leave and sighs and sits back down and just thinks about how much she misses him and how much of thier daughter's life he is missing.
