Gabby's POV
💌
Currently, I was waiting for the food to be done. I couldn't wait to spend my lunch with Jordan. It had been two weeks since we did this, having lunch together. Sometimes we ate in her office and sometimes we met at a diner. It felt good because we were really like starting over again from the beginning.
Jordan even asked me out on a date and we spent our night together. No, we didn't have sex just yet because we needed to adjust after ten years separated. But some things weren't change from her and I wished I didn't make a drastic change too. But it was good to spend my days with her. She was still lovely and strict if it came to Allie and Becca's relationship, well yeah, since Allie was still a minor and we both wanted to protect her.
I made my way to her office with a huge smile spread all over my face. Her employees greeted me since they knew who I was. I greeted them back cheerfully. I had plenty of time before I went work at 8pm and I wanted to know how Jordan's day was. She didn't come to my house yesterday because she was staying in her office due to some deadlines and she needed to get it done.
I opened her office door without a knock because I used to do this almost everyday. There she was, checking on something, she didn't even realize I was now standing in front of her desk. But then she looked up and smiling when she saw me. I smiled back at her, she patted her lap. I placed the food container on her desk and following her request.
"I missed you." She said afterwards.
"Did you?" I played with the collar of her baby blue button up shirt.
She nodded. She motioned me to get closer, I thought she wanted to kiss me but boy was I wrong.
She whispered in my ear seductively. "But I missed your food more, I'm sorry."
Her hand grabbed the food container and she winked at me. This woman. I groaned in annoyance, I tried to stand up but she held me and laughed.
"I'm joking." She said truthfully, I rolled my eyes. "Give me a kiss."
I pecked her lips, she pouted. "What?"
Jordan groaned. "Give me a real kiss."
I laughed, then an idea came up. I leaned closer to her until my lips touched her ear. I whispered something, "if you're at home tomorrow, I'll give you a full service."
Jordan gawked. "Why are you torturing me? You know I can't, babe. I have to go tomorrow and you know that."
"There's no second chance." I winked at her.
Suddenly her eyes darkened. "You already gave me a second chance anyway." She said above a whisper.
I felt the atmosphere was hotter, I shifted my position on her lap and she held my body tightly. I leaned down to kiss her. She caught my lips and we started to kiss passionately for the umpteenth time inside her office. Yeah, we did this almost everyday. We ignored the food and our surrounding.
I felt her lips caught my neck and she sucked my neck vigorously, I left a moan but suddenly she covered my mouth since I was louder than the usual. I thought it was my hormone. Well damn, I didn't have sex for months though.
I did something that made Jordan stopped sucking on my collarbone for a moment. I took her fingers, licked it and sucked it to suppress my moaning. Jordan's mouth agape, her brows raised and I heard she mumbled a 'wow'.
I looked at her with lust and desire, she didn't need to be told twice on that. She unbuttoned my shirt one by one and left it opened right below my breasts. She licked my cleavage down to the edge of my bra. She didn't unclasp it, instead she rolled the edge of my bra down and she sucked my right nipple once it was out of its cage.
I moaned uncontrollably and now she didn't cover my mouth. Maybe she realized that no one was around since it was lunch time. My hand pushed her head to suck deeper and she grunted in pleasure. Her tongue playing with my nipple. I stroked her hair and massaged her head, I knew she liked it when I did that to her because it turned her on.
Jordan groaned, she pushed me until my back touched the edge of her desk, then she laid me on my back on her desk. Jordan moved the files on her desk carelessly because she was focus on kept kissing all over my body.
But before she could unbutton my jeans, the door opened. "Oh my god, I'm sorry!"
We both turned our head to see who barged in. Well, shit. I felt my face reddened in embarrassment.
"Ma?!" Jordan said.
I struggled to get up and Jordan helped me. The door closed again and I took the chance to straighten my shirt even though it was no avail. Jordan took her files again, she pulled her hair up in a ponytail, I took the food container and placed it on the coffee table and sat there, waiting for Alex to come in again.
Damn, it was the most awkward thing I had ever felt. I thought it was like a karma. I caught Allie when she was about to go further with Becca and now Alex caught me right on the same position as Allie. I covered my face with the palm of my hands, Jordan kissed my head before she walked to the door and opened it up.
I heard she greeted Alex awkwardly and Alex brushed it off. I greeted Alex and she just grinned like nothing happened.
"Alright, I didn't mean to interrupt you guys but I need to talk to Jordan." Alex said.
"You could've knocked, Ma." Jordan pinched the bridge of her nose, then she looked at me shyly.
"I did." Alex replied. "But I guess you guys were busy." Alex faked a cough when she said the word 'busy'.
I rubbed the back of my neck. I wished I could get out of this awkward situation. I mentally groaned, I didn't mean to eavesdrop but I heard they talked and it was pretty clear, but there was no major problem and I was glad Jordan could take care of her moms' company perfectly.
About thirty minutes later, Alex bid me a goodbye. Jordan sat next to me, opening the food container and started to eat. She looked so hungry though, I guess she didn't have dinner last night.
I wiped something from the corner of her mouth, she mouthed a 'thank you' before continuing to chew her food. We both in silence, I still felt a little bit awkward and she seemed like she had a very big problem.
"Hey, what's up?" I grabbed her hand, she interlocked our fingers and sighed hard.
"Mommy wanted me to take care of her gallery too." She replied.
"The one in Northville?" I asked, Jordan nodded. "Then why aren't you happy?"
Jordan placed her head on my shoulder. "I'll be very busy and I'm afraid I can't have enough time to spend it with you."
I smiled. "Take care of your parents first, Jordan. It's fine, I'm not going anywhere."
She smiled sadly. "Thank you."
I nodded and kissed her forehead.

Well that was bullshit.
Jordan was not only busy, but she technically disappeared from my daily life. She was never home, she went to Northville back and forth, never once she stopped by at my house. Allie didn't feel like she 'lost' Jordan since she mostly spent her time with Becca, but I did. I did feel lost Jordan as a partner.
My mood changed drastically, I knew I was the one who told her to agree but damn, I needed her too though. I had so much in mind and I had no one to share. She didn't pick up the phone, she gave me very late reply, even my phone calls went straight to her voicemail.
Tomorrow was a Valentine Day and Allie asked my permission to sleep over at Becca's. I wanted to say no, but knowing she was so happy when she was with Becca, I didn't have a heart to stop her.
And here I was, sitting alone in the living room, sipping the wine Jordan had given to me awhile ago, waiting for her to at least reply my messages but none. Nothing happened.
I sighed, 1am. I had to sleep, I had work a couple hours later. The bar had a special thing, it was Anne's idea and the owner agreed on that. Oh lord, I couldn't imagine what would happen tonight. Anne was a smartass crazy woman, I wished her idea could make me forgot about what happened between Jordan and I.
I faintly heard the front door opened, but my eyes wouldn't cooperate with me tonight. Maybe it was Allie, maybe she forgot to bring something so I shrugged it off. I let the darkness consumed me fully.
I awoke at eight in the morning and my body was sore. Damn, I fell asleep on the couch apparently. I couldn't move, so I laid there for another fifteen minutes then I sat to stretch my body.
My eyes caught something on the coffee table. I furrowed my brows, there was a small note saying : Good Morning, Beautiful. and there was another note written : follow me.
I narrowed my eyes suspiciously, but I followed it anyway. And to my surprise, I stepped on roses on the floor. It led me to none other than my room.
My heart pounded, right at the door, there was another note saying : Open it up, but my hand was too afraid of what I was going to face. I took a deep breath before I opened it up slowly.
There she was, standing beautifully in the middle of my room, holding a bucket of flowers, grinning from ear to ear, still wearing her work attire and her baggy eyes were too obvious. Nevertheless, she was still beautiful as always.
"Hi." Jordan smiled. "Happy Valentine's Day."
I forgot that I already gave her the spare key of my house. But after what had happened for the past month, I didn't want to deal with her just yet. I needed to be on my own before I faced her, but here we were, standing face to face and I knew she was tired judging by the look on her face.
"Hey." I didn't mean to sound nonchalant but I couldn't help it.
Jordan's face fell once she heard the sound of my voice that didn't welcome her warmly. She took a step forward, trying to reach my hand. "What's wrong, babe?"
I shook my head. "I gotta go to work."
Her hands fell to the side of her body, her face full of concerned and I knew she cared a lot about me. "Baby, talk to me."
"Later." I told her, then I walked to my bathroom and washed my face, brushed my teeth and stayed inside for thirty minutes.
I didn't hear anything from my room, maybe Jordan had left. I sighed heavily, I knew I missed her so much but when she suddenly appeared in front of me when I wasn't ready was making me couldn't think straight.
I opened the door and surprised that Jordan fell asleep on my bed with such an awkward position. She still held the flowers, her body bent to the side and her head was on the headboard of the bed. She looked like her energy was gone.
I took the flowers slowly, adjusting her body so she could sleep perfectly. There was a note on the flowers saying : I'm sorry, then I opened the card and a question popped up : Would you like to go on a date with me tonight?
I covered my mouth, feeling the butterflies in my stomach. Then I averted my gaze from the note to her. I sat on the edge of the bed, caressing her cheek carefully not to wake her up because I knew she needed sleep. Then I whispered in her ear even though I knew she couldn't hear me.
"I'm still mad at you." I said. "But thank you for the surprise. I love it. And yes, I'd like to go on a date with you."
Then I kissed her forehead, saying that I had to go to work. I still kept those three words because I waited for the right time to tell her.
