The next two weeks went by in a blur with neither Max nor Mr. Jefferson getting much sleep. Ariana made sure to come visit at first chance she got after being told that Max had gone into labour. Even Chloe, who had never been to Mr. Jeffersons house before, came as often as she was allowed to. It was during one of her visits as Mr. Jefferson handed her Sophie, he asked if he could have a word with her while Max was taking a nap. And as usual, Missy was there to take a nap with her.
"What did you want to talk about?" Chloe asked as she cradled Sophie.
"How would you like to be Sophies godmother?" Mr. Jefferson asked making Chloe look shocked for a moment. "I think it would mean a lot to Max if you were to accept." He continued as he sat down with a cup of coffee.
"I would be honoured." Chloe said once it all sank in. "I think she wants her mommy." Chloe said as Sophie started to fuzz after a while.
As if summoned, Max entered with Missy following behind her and took Sophie from Chloe and sat down next to Mr. Jefferson and started to feed her.
"I better get going. I've got a shift this afternoon." Chloe said as she said goodbye to Max and Mr. Jefferson.
"Did you ask her?" Max said once Chloe had left.
"I did." Mr. Jefferson said as he gave Max a kiss on her cheek.
"What did she say?" Max said as she kissed Mr. Jefferson on his mouth.
"She said that she would be honoured." Mr. Jefferson said as he picked up his cup of coffee before putting his arm around Max as she kept feeding their daughter.
"How was she holding up?" Max asked as she too had been met with the sad news about the finding of Rachel Ambers body the day after she had given birth.
"Considering everything that's happened lately, I think that being here with you is keeping her mind off Rachels death." Mr. Jefferson said. "It's sad that it happened to her, she had a real talent and would probably have made it big within the modelling world." He continued.
"Are you ready to go back to teaching tomorrow?" Max asked to change the topic.
"As ready as I'll ever be, but I would rather be here with you." Mr. Jefferson said as he gave Max a few kisses on her cheek and forehead as Max moved Sophie to burp her.
"Just admit it Mark, you can't wait until I'm fully healed, can you?" Max said with a knowing look on her face.
"What can I say, having a gorgeous fiancé as you next to me is hard to ignore. Besides, I wouldn't mind us starting on a sibling for Sophie." Mr. Jefferson said with a flirtatious smirk on his face, making Max laugh before giving him a kiss.
"Maybe one day." Max said as she got up to put Sophie into the small crib they kept in the living room before snuggling up next to Mr. Jefferson again with Missy jumping into her lap.
What neither of them knew, was the car following Chloe when she left for her work that afternoon.
