Chapter : two
Daniel sat in his third meeting of the day, with an advertiser who wanted his new soft drink to appear in one of Daniel's new sports magazines.
" So you see according to these figures..."
Daniel started to space out as the advertiser's voice droned on. His thoughts moved to Betty and their dinner plans later , then the thoughts moved past dinner . His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a sound.
" Ahem!"
" Oh sorry, thank you for your time , I'll get back to you with my decision" Daniel said to the sales rep.
" But, I'm not done..."The ad guy said, but , Daniel had already ushered him out of the conference room and shut the door. Daniel than walked to his office and pressed a button on his phone.
" Kira, can you move my next meeting forward an hour , I need a break." Daniel said to his assistant.
"No problem , Mr. Winters." Kira said
"Thanks..."Daniel said collapsing into his chair.
He sighed overwhelmed and looked over at the picture of Betty he kept on his desk. He smiled and decided to pay her a visit . He walked over to her office and walked in to see his fiancee typing furiously on her computer, not noticing Daniel walk in.
" I see you got my flowers." Daniel said.
"Daniel!" Betty said startled when she heard his voice.
" Sorry to scare you, I missed you." He said walking over to her desk and giving her a quick kiss hello.
" I love the flowers, thank you, but, aren't you supposed to be in a meeting?" Betty asked confused, but, happy to see him.
" Couldn't take the boring presentations so I decided to take a break and see what my beautiful fiancee was doing." Daniel explained.
"When did you get so sweet?" Betty said smiling at him.
"When I met you." Daniel said moving a strand of her hair from her face. She leaned up and kissed him , smiling when they broke the kiss.
"I guess I should be sweet more often, if your going to kiss me like that." Daniel said with a smirk, making Betty playfully slap him.
"How has your morning been?" Daniel asked
"Busy, after my meeting with my publisher ,I asked Christina to be my maid of honor and and make my wedding dress and she said yes." Betty said.
"That's great, so when do you want to tell everyone else we're engaged." Daniel said excited to tell the rest of their employee's and coworkers.
"We can do it at tomorrow's staff meeting." Betty suggested.
"Sounds good to me, I should probably get back to work,I'll see you tonight." He said kissing her then walking out.
Betty smiled at him then went back to working on her book. Who would of thought she'd be a published authoress and engaged to a man who had gone from being her boss ,to her best friend, boyfriend and now fiancee. Life couldn't be any better than this, she couldn't help but wonder, as she thought about the wedding, about Daniels past, specifically his family. As if she were psychic a news flash, on her computer, caught her eye.
"Bradford Meade released from prison, after real killer is found."
Betty gasped as she read the headline, she couldn't believe it, especially since Bradford had pleaded guilty. What would it mean for Daniel who had spent the last two and a half years building a new name , and a new life , for himself.
She wanted to go to him and tell him before he heard it from someone else or on a news report, but he would be out of the office for the rest of his meetings, with his phone turned off. She hoped somehow the news wouldn't get to him , before she could gently tell him about his father's release. And whether he decided to contact his father, or not, she would be with him the whole way.
A/n: Thanks for reading , as you can tell from this chapter there will be a little bit of drama, but there will also be lots of Detty fluffiness . I'll have another chapter posted early to mid next week , let me know your thoughts etc by reviewing, thanks for reading.
