Chapter 10
Landon POV:
"Mr. Carter." My boss, Mr. Whitmire said. "Yes sir?" I responded. "I need you to fly to Boston." He said. "Why sir?" I asked. "Business, Mr. Carter." He said and "You leave Friday." He walked away. Friday? Today was Wednesday. I can't bring Max with. I only have a day to find someone to watch him. "Mr Whitmire." I said going into his office and asked "When will I be back?" "Two weeks." He said. I nodded and walked away.
How am I suppose to find someone to watch my son for two weeks on such short notice? I thought as I walked to the bookstore. Me and Jamie were to have lunch together. "Landon." She said walking over to me and giving me a kiss. "Hi Jamie." I said. "Let me get my purse and we can leave." Jamie said walking to the back of the store and then returning with her purse. We decided on a little resturant not far from the store. We were seated and given menus. "Jamie, I have something to ask you." I said. "You're not proposing again are you?" She asked setting her menu down. "No, I found out today that I have to go on a business trip. To Boston for to weeks. I can't bring Max with and I was wondering if you could watch him?" I asked. She took a minute and then replied "Sure. I would love to watch him." "Good. Thank you." I said leaning over the table and kissing her.
After work, I picked up Max and we went home. I was making supper and Max was doing his homework. "Max, I have something to tell you." I said. "What dad?" He asked turning around in his chair. "I have to leave Friday for a business trip, I can't bring you with. I asked Jamie if she could watch you and she said yes." I said sitting next to you. "Why isn't grandma watching me?" He asked. "Because, Jamie lives close to school, if it was the summer, grandma would be." I explained. "How long will you be gone?" He asked. "Two weeks, tops. If anything goes wrong, I will be home right away. Jamie said you can call everynight if you want." I said. "Okay dad." He said getting back to his homework.
Jamie POV:
Thursday night. Landon was bring Max over since he was leaving Friday morning. "Hi guys." I said when they came over. They walked in and Landon put Max's bag on the floor. "Hi Jamie." He said kissing me on the cheek and said to Max "What do you say?" "Thank you for letting me stay here." Max said. "You are very welcome. Come, I'll show you to your room." She said showing us upstairs. After that, we went to the kitchen. "I just have a few rules. Their will be no fighting, use your indoorr voice when inside, and when you make a mes, you must clean it up. Like with your toys, or clothes. Ok?" I said. "Yes." Max replied. "You will enjoy it here. Caitlin has a swing set, and a sandbox outside." Jamie said. "Thank you again Jamie." Landon said before he left. "Do not worry. Max is in good hands. I will take care of him like he was my own. Anything you need to tell me?" I asked. "Yes, Max has the habit of if he gets to do something, he has to do it everyday. He doesn't like apples, or grapes. He needs a night light to sleep, but I packed his special one." He explained and he said "Max, come here." Max walked into the room. "Yes dad?" He asked. "Now, I want you to behave asn listen to Jamie. She is the boss. She will you call me everynight. Follow her rules. I promise to buy you something in Boston. Now I will see you in two weeks. Jamie is bring you to the airport to meet me. I will see you then. Bye Max." He said. He was truely a father. "By dad." Max said hugging Landon. "Bye Jamie." I said kissing her. "Bye and have a safe trip. Call tomorrow night." I said. "Bye Caitlin." He yelled. "Bye Landon." She yelled back. He said goodbye once more and left. "Well, would you like a bedtime snack?" I asked as we walked to the kitchen.
Landon POV:
It was strange leaving Max. Of course I've done it before, but it was when Allison was alive, so Max was in the same house. I woke up to early that morning. I had my morning coffee and made myself breakfast. I then cleaned the dishes and got ready to go. I called a cab, so I won't have to leave my car at the airport. I grapped my bag and locked the door when the cab honked. I got in and told the driver where to go. When he dropped me off, I found my terminal. I wanted for my time. "Flight 439, now baording." Came across the intercom. I picked up my bag. "Landon!" I heard behind me. I turned around and saw Jamie running up to me. "Jamie?" I said. "Landon, I had to see you before you left." She said. "Why?" I asked. She kissed me. She kissed for along time. "I needed to do that." She said. "Jamie is something wrong?" I asked. "No, I justed needed one last kiss before you left." She said and "When you come home, maybe you can reconsider you proposal." She played with my shirt. "Really?" I asked dropping my bag. "Yes." She said before I kssed her again. "I will be home soon." I said kissing her again. I left to get on the plane.
Jamie POV:
I had to see him again. I took the kids to school and drove over to the airport. I finally found him almost getting on the plane. I yelled for him and responed. I kissed him and talked to him. I also told him to reconsider his proposal. I never really had him leave by leaving town. When we broke up that time, he didn't leave town. He left to get on the plane. I watched the plane take off and then I left the airport and went to work. I was late, but hey, I owned it. "Where were you?" Taylor asked. "Saying goodbye to Landon." I replied. "Where is he going?" She asked following me to the back of the store. "He is going on a business trip." I said picking up a box and putting it on a dolly. "What about his son?" She asked doing the same thing. "I am taking care of Max." I said pushing the dolly out to the front. "Really? Why?" She asked foloowing me. "Because, Landon asked me. I live close to his school. If it was summer, his mother would watch him. I love Max as one of my own." I explained. SOemimes Taylor can really get on my nerves. Why does everyone think Landon is bad for me? "He is just using you." Taylor said as hse opened the boxes. "He is not. This is the first time he as asked me to watch Max and if he wants me to again, I will. Now will you stop it and stop copying me?" I said going to a different row.
I picked up Caitlin and Max from school and we went home. After supper, Max decided to call Landon. "Hi dad." He said getting Landon on the phone. He talked for awhile and then he said "He wants to talk to you." Max gave me the phone and then hopped away. "Hello?" I asked. "Hi Jamie, how are you?" He asked. "Fine, and yourself?" I asked back. "Fine." He said, there was a silence for awhile "Jamie, were you serious this mornin'? I asked. "Yes Landon. It wasn't a spur of the moment. I thought it over." I said. "Then maybe I will." He said. "Ok. Then maybe I will." He said. Then I heard the doorbell ring. "Hold on." I said walking to the door. I opened it and was shocked. "Hi Jamie." Landon said standing in my doorway. "What, what are you doing here? I thought you would be in Boston by now?" I asked. "I was, but I decided to come home. After this morning, I couldn't leave." He said. "What about the meeting?" I asked. I knew Landon's job was important to him. It was the only money supporting him and Max. "I told them there was a family emergancy." He said. I let him in, since it was raining out. "What are you going to do now?" I asked. "This." He said. He gave me a deep, passionate kiss. One I will never forget.
