Ch. 7 A Week Off

I woke up in the morning with the sun in my face. The first thing I noticed was how well rested I was. I noticed the clock and it said 10:30. Gabriel was still asleep. I shook him. He was the heaviest sleeper known to men. At least he didn't snore.

"Morning" Gabriel said.

"Morning" I said

"You feeling better" Gabriel said.

"Much. Haven't slept in until 10 for a long time" I said.

"Want to go get some breakfast" Gabriel said.

"Sure" I said.

After breakfast we went swimming and then went shopping.

"Which one for Noah" I said.

"I like that one" I said.

"I want to get Micah a new sweatshirt" I said.

"You're going to spoil those kids rotten" Gabriel said smirking.

"So sue me" I said smiling. He knew how much I like buying presents.

That night we went to a club to go dancing.

"What do you want to drink?" He asked me.

"Umm I don't know surprise me" I said. He raised his eyebrows.

"What?" I asked.

"I am a bad influence on you" He smirked.

"Why" I asked.

"Since you been with me I noticed you drink a lot more" He said smirking.

"Yeah because being married to you is stressful" I said. He stuck him tongue out at me.

"Very mature" I said. He went to get us drinks. He wasn't gone for five minutes when a guy came up to me.

"Hey sweetheart where you from" He said. He obviously had way too much to drink. I tried walking away but he followed me.

"Why don't you come with me and my friends" He asked.

"I got to go. My husband is waiting for me and he is convicted felon" I said. Then he spilled his beer on me.

"Hey get away from her" Gabriel said suddenly appearing.

"If you ever touch my wife again, I will cut your hands off" He spat. We walked away. After a few hours, we went back to the hotel and lay down in the hammock.

"What is your most embarrassing moment?" I asked laughing.

"I can't tell you that" Gabriel said.

"Come on" I said.

"I can't" He said. He was blushing I never seen him blush before.

"Why not?" I said. I told him my most embarrassing moment.

"Ok fine. In High School I was bullied. I use to get a teased a lot about my eyebrows" He said.

"And?" I said.

"One time I was fed up I came home from school early" He said

"You ditched school?" I said.

"Yeah. See my mom worked at a spa and had hair wax. Well I put it on my eyebrows and I burnt myself" He whispered. I lost it, I was laughing for ten minutes.

"It's not funny" He said.

"It is to me" I said. After a few moments I finally got a hold of myself.

"Is that all you were teased about?" I asked.

"It was horrible I got teased for everything. Especially my clothes and my glasses." He said.

"What was wrong with them" I asked.

"I wore mom sweaters and oversized glasses" Gabriel said horrified. That started a new round of laughter. Even in the dark I could see him blush.

"I miss my baby" I said.

"Did you call Peter and Erin?" Gabriel asked.

"Yeah, they said he was doing fine. Micah was playing with him when I called." I said.

"We will see him on Monday" Gabriel said bringing me closer.

The next week past by very fast. We were having so much fun. We went out every night and lay in the hammocks before bed. During the day we went swimming, and went exploring. I was dreading going back to work. Things got worse when my assistant quit. When I get back I had to do more interviews for a new assistant. Before I knew it we were in the airport on our way home. When we got to New York It was 6 o'clock at night.

"My baby" I said cuddling Noah in my arms.

"Did you have fun with Aunty Erin and Uncle Pete" I said.

"Erin why you scratched up?" Gabriel said.

"I got into a fight at work" Erin said proudly. I looked at her.

"Erin you didn't" I said looking at her. She nodded her head.

"I can't believe you finally kicked Emma's ass" I said.

"Well there wasn't much ass to kick" She said smirking.

"I still don't know why you didn't tell me what she was doing" Peter said.

"Because I thought I could handle it" Erin said.

"Did this happen at work" I asked.

"Yeah me and Emma were both fired" She said bitterly.

"I'm sorry" I said. Peter shook his head

"What an example to set for Micah and Noah" Peter said dismayed.

"I hope I am a good example about how to kick somebody's butt properly" Erin said.

"Well Noah has a dad like me for an example" Gabriel said. Peter started laughing.

"You couldn't fight if you tried. Remember who was beating who the night I exploded" Peter said.

"It wasn't my fault. Nicki distracted me but hitting me" Gabriel said.

"Excuses, Excuses" Peter said smirking. It was good to see my friends.

"How was your trip" Erin asked

"I hope you guys went places besides you hotel room" Peter said. Erin and I stared at him.

"I can't believe you made a joke like that" I said.

"Ha-ha, not so Perfect Peter anymore" Erin said smirking.

"Well he did get drunk in the tree house" I said.

"Peter was drunk in a tree house" Gabriel said confused.

"You surprised" Peter said.

"A little" Gabriel said laughing. We brought Noah home and gave him a bath.

"Noah please don't get Daddy wet" Gabriel said. His shirt was shocked.

"Gabe the baby should be the one getting the bath" I said giggling.

"He keeps splashing me" Gabriel said. Noah was giggling with delight.

"Who is Micah staying the night with again?" Gabriel asked.

"A kid named Jeff from his school. His mother will bring him home in the morning" I said.

"We should call his Grandma, tell him we got him" Gabriel said.

"I don't know if that is a good idea" I said.

"Why not?" I asked.

"Because Micah doesn't get along with his Grandma. " Gabriel said.

"I'll talk to him tomorrow" I said.

Going to bed that night I was dreading going to work. I knew that it was going to be a nightmare. So many agents quit and Cypher and Arnold were taking up a lot of the Company's time. When I got in I was shocked at the sight I found the Company in.
