AN: takes place October 9th
No one expected to see Greg back to work for a couple of weeks. So they were all surprised to see him back on Friday morning. The ladies in the daycare were happy to see John back along with his little buddies which were mostly his daddy's team's children and Sam. After dropping John off and making sure that he was alright he went to his office.
When Greg first walked into his office none of his team saw him. Then a couple of minutes later they noticed who was in the office.
"What are you doing here?" Allison asked coming into the office.
"Working what does it look like?" Greg asked.
"I can see that but I mean why aren't you taking time off to be with John?" Allison asked.
By now Erick and Robert had came into the office too.
"Because I don't need to. Why would I?" Greg asked getting nasty with Allison.
Deep down he was hurting but by taking time off it just gave him time to think about Stacy.
"I don't know maybe because you lost your wife a week ago," Allison said also getting nasty.
"Nope done over that. Get back to work all of you," Greg said turning his attention back to the computer.
"Come on guys," Erick said.
So with that they went back into the conference room.
"So what is this? His manly way of dealing with pain?" Allison asked.
"Yeah," Erick and Robert said at the same time.
"Oh," Allison said feeling bad for Greg.
Up until lunch was spent in the conference room for Erick, Allison, and Robert while Greg stayed in his office doing who knows what.
"What is he doing here?" James asked entering the conference room and seeing Greg in his office.
"It's his way of dealing with the lost of Stacy," Allison said.
"God I should've known," James said rubbing his face.
"I'll catch you guys later," James said going into Greg's office.
"What do you want?" Greg asked not even turning around.
He was looking for a new daycare for John. He knew down there they'd just be all sympatric towards John because he lost his mommy. Greg didn't want his son growing up to be a baby. He wanted him to grow up to be a man. Or that's the reason that he'd give anyone who asked. Really he just needed to get away from the hospital. Because all it did was bring up memories of Stacy. It hurt too much to be here.
"Wondering why you're not at home with John," James said.
"Why would I do that?" Greg asked not turning around.
He knew that if he did then he'd give everything away to James on how he really was feeling.
"Oh I don't know maybe because you just lost your wife a week ago? And your son lost his mother," James said taking a seat.
"I'm fine," Greg said starting to get annoyed.
"Greg take some time off. If you need to be alone go and I can watch John for you," James said.
"I don't need any time. Neither does my son so just leave us alone," Greg said though clinched teeth.
"Greg take time off," James said getting pissed that Greg had to be a stubborn ass.
"LEAVE!" Greg yelled pointing James to the door but he never turned to look at him.
So with that James left without a word. He really hated to get his wife involved but he wanted Greg to take time off. He knew that John was probably picking up on his daddy's mood so that couldn't be good for Greg. James didn't'\ know why he cared so much. If Greg wanted to be an ass let him. But for some reason now a days he was coming to see that he cared for people more then usual. He was crying when he watched sappy romance movies and he never did. That was Lisa's job not his.
After lunch Lisa came into the office.
"What now?" Greg asked not turning to look at her.
"Go take some time off," Lisa said.
"No," Greg said.
"Greg it won't count against you. Just go do it," Lisa said.
"I said no," Greg said raising his voice.
"Greg do it or I will fire you," Lisa said.
"Try it," Greg said.
"You have the count of ten to get out of here before you'll be fired," Lisa said.
"1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8…9," Lisa said.
"You want me out of here? Fine I'm out of here! Have a nice life assholes!" Greg shouted standing up and leaving after grabbing his jacket off the back of his chair.
Greg stormed out of his office and down the hall. Once he got out to the car he got in and sped off burning rubber as he went. Once he got out of the parking garage he went back to the house to blow off steam. A few hours later Greg left the house to go get John from the daycare.
Greg had just been told that John had went home with James. So he headed over there to find Sam home with him. She said that James went to go get supper and Lisa was at the office still. So Greg took John roughly out of Sam's arms and then put him into the car. He ignored his son's crying as he sped off to his house.
