Chapter 6
As Betty gets back to the offices with Daniel's bagel she bumps into Henry and asks him to walk up with her.
"Hey Betty. Is there something wrong?"
"No."
"Betty, please, I know when something is bothering you."
"Oh really. How do you know when something is bothering me?"
"The way you carry yourself and the way you talk to people."
"How do I carry myself then?"
"Head low, dragging your feet, and walking kind of slouched."
"Oh and how do I talk to people?"
"Um...you seem like your in a bad mood. Now, tell me whats wrong you know you can tell me anything."
"I know. When is your lunch break we can go take a walk and then I'll tell you. I got nothing really to do today."
"Around one. I'll come up and get you. You sure you don't want to tell me now."
"Yeah I'm sure. I'd hug you now but I don't want to drop Daniel's bagel."
"Yeah true don't want him getting mad at you now."
Both laugh at Henry's stupid joke.
"So how has your week been so far?"
"Good. How has yours been?"
"Eh. A little boring."
"Well after our shifts are over do you want to go back to my apartment to make your day a little more interesting."
"I'd like that but we both got work tomorrow and don't you have like two meetings tomorrow?"
"Yeah. But I'll manage."
"No. Can't we wait until the weekend?"
Henry gives puppy dog eyes. "Do we really have to?" sounding disappointed.
"Yes. I don't want you falling asleep during your meetings. That wouldn't look very good." Henry gives Betty a pouty face. "Oh please you should know that doesn't work on me."
"I know. I was trying. Just in case it did that time."
"Oh yeah that wasn't the best either. Sorry." Betty laughs.
"You making fun of me now? I see how it is."
"Maybe...maybe not...who knows." Henry tries again. "Oh stop it. You know I love you."
"I love you, too."
They got to Daniel's office.
"I'll see you later Betty."
"See you."
They kiss before Henry leaves.
Betty goes into Daniel's office.
"Aw how cute was that."
"Oh shut up. Like you've never kissed anyone before."
"I know. But that was cute." Betty gives him a look to shut up. "Okay I'll shut up now."
"Okay good. Now here's the bagel you wanted."
"Have I ever told you how amazing you are?"
"Not lately."
"Oh...alright then. Your an amazing assistant and I'm happy to have you as my assistant."
"Thanks Daniel. And your an amazing boss."
"Thanks Betty. I don't know where I would be without you right now if I didn't have you."
"Well if it wasn't for you dad then you never would have met me in the first place."
"Yeah thats true I should have thanked him for that while I could." Daniel blushes. "Don't you have somewhere to be?"
"No not really. Got anything to talk about?"
"No."
"Alright. You know where my desk is if you need me." Betty giggles and Daniel smiles.
Subtly and sort of quiet. "I love you Betty"
Turns around not sure if she heard what she thought she heard. "What? Did you just say 'I love you Betty.'"
"No. What are you talking about?" Nervously.
"I don't know. I must be hearing things."
"Maybe your just tired."
"I'm not tired I got enough sleep last night and this week has been really dead so far."
"Well I'll let you get back to whatever you were going to do." Betty leaves and Daniel kicks himself. He had not realized that he loved Betty until a few days ago. He recalls she loves Henry and would never even consider loving him like that so he tries to forget about her which he now knows why its so hard for Gio to get over her.
A/N: so now Betty has three men who love her and if she finds out that her own boss loves her then she will be even more confused than she already is about who she truly loves. There are a few more chapters left but I'm not exactly sure how many more but this is probably getting towards the end. Please read and review.
