Chapter Thirteen
"Are you sure you're okay with this you just had a baby a little more than a week ago." Ned was saying as Sabrina carried a box full of stuff into his office." I'm no expert, but shouldn't you still be resting?" she smiled at his concern for her well being.
"Ned I'm fine. I'm healed completely and can even have sex if I chose to now." she flashed him a teasing smile " So I'm okay with a box from the small office you gave to me to this one that I'm sharing with you." she dropped the box on the desk he gave her. Today was her first day back since she told him she'd think about coming back. It had been three months since she told Zander it was over, but yet her heart still wanted him. She made a vow to her self once she got settled in she'd go to his room he had at Jake's and they finally have it out. This time she wasn't going to back down. He mattered to her and she'd do anything she could to make he see that.
"It's nice to know those things about my employees." he said referring to her comment about sex.
"Yeah I bet it is." she joked with him even if her cheeks did turn a little shade of pink.
"You know if I had met you before you fell in love with this guy that still has a hold of your heart...." he stopped his sentence there.
"You wouldn't have highered me on as your accountant." she said as a knock came at the door." you do have a gym here right?" she asked as Jax walked in.
"Why do you need a gym?" he asked catching her last comment.
"Hello I just had a baby. Do you know what kind of damage baby's do to a woman's figure?" she questioned as him and Ned looked her over good.
"I see no visible signs." he said
"Yeah that's because they are underneath my clothing something you won't see." she added
"We have a gym here that you are more than welcomed to." Ned said as he smiled at her.
"You know I have never met a woman who's body offended me." Jax said causing her to blush more deeply.
"Yeah well you probably like all women no matter how they look." she threw back at him teasingly.
"Yes, and seeing you pregnant put you at the top of my list." he flirted
" Okay Mr. Jax get over yourself." she said with a soft smile" My heart belongs to someone else." as soon as the words were out of her mouth she knew they were true because Zander had owned her heart the moment he shoved her down in the park that first night they met.
"I'm sure I could give him a good challenge." he insisted
"Look I'm going to go find something do else where I'll see you in the morning." she said to Ned
"Bye Sabrina." Ned said
"Red looks great on." Jax said referring to her blush.
She just smiled at him and shook her head as she walked out. God Jax could easily have had her heart if it hadn't been for the fact that it all ready belonged to Zander. She had just walked into Jake's when she noticed Zander at the bar. She took a deep breath as she walked up to him. Her hand touched his arm and he turned around facing her. This time there was no warm smiles or anything just surprise.
"So, now you're ready to hear what I have to say." he stated as he looked her up and down" I must say you look great despite the fact you had a child." he added
"Zander do we have to do this here?" she asked noticeing how bad acholo smelled when you havn't been drinking.
"Nah, I have a room upstairs, but the last time we were up there you almost ended up in my bed." he reminded her as he traced her neckline with a finger.
"You're drunk." she stated the obvious and swatted his hand away from her.
"No, not yet, but give me a few more minutes and I will be." he said as he turned back to the bar and downed a shot of some dark liquid.
"I'll talk to you when you're sober." she said as she turned to walk away from him.
"No, you don't get to walk away from me this time." he said as he stood up and followed her outside grabbing her arm before she could get into her car.
"Wow, you can move pretty good for a drunk guy." she said amused at his state.
"I told you I wasn't' drunk yet." he said" So, why did you come to find me?" he asked as his grip on her hand soften to a caress against her wrist.
"Because we have things we need to hash out." She said as those old familar feelings started to stir deep within her.
"So, let's hash them out." he said as he gently pulled her unresisting body to him.
"No, I'd rather do this when you have not had an ounce of alcohol in your system that way you have a clear head." she said as his head lowered
"So, then stay the night with me and we'll talk in the morning." he said as he kissed the side of her neck.
"Yeah, Zander it's in the middle of the day. I tell you what you sober up by tonight and you might get what you want." she said as he pulled back to look into her eyes.
"I' not really good at believing women when they promise me things." he said
"Have I ever lied to you?" she asked
"No, but there's a first time for everything." he said
"I am not your ex wife or a girl that lied about having your baby. I won't lie to you Zander not even to cover my own ass. I'll always be honest with you even if it'll hurt. That's the only way you'll be able to trust me and I expect only the same from you." she promised.
"Okay give me a few hours to sleep and shower then I'll meet you at Kelly's around seven." he said
"Okay I'll be there." she confirmed.
"If you're more than ten minutes late I'll know you lied and I'll never trust you again." he warned
"I won't be late Zander." she promised as she kissed him gently on the lips and then left.
Things looked up for them so far. He thought as he went back into Jake's and got a water. He walked up to his room passing out on his bed.
"Are you sure you're okay with this you just had a baby a little more than a week ago." Ned was saying as Sabrina carried a box full of stuff into his office." I'm no expert, but shouldn't you still be resting?" she smiled at his concern for her well being.
