I saved up the documents that I was working on on the server so Harry would be able to get a hold of them. I pursed my lips and closed the file, opening up another documents that were supposed to go to the boss, I checked if everything was good and couldn't help but check out the equations that were introduced. Then I made sure to save it on server again before I stood up and walked over to the office. I knocked on the door before entering it.

"Sir, I have organized the reports as you wished, and also the project introduction that are supposed to be held tomorrow on the private server." I said. Harry looked up nodding his head.

"Good. Thats it for today or...?"

I shook my head. "No, sir. The schedule for you is empty for the rest of the day." He sighed and nodded then stood up.

"Alright thats it for the day. Have good afternoon and evening Ms. Stuart." He said with a slight smile on his lips and I nodded my head.

"Like wise, Mr. Osborn." I give him a smile and with that I left the office. I gathered up my stuff and shut down the laptop before leaving. When I got down I saw Felicia walking back behind the desk. She didn't notice me until I was at her desk to swipe my ID.

"Oh hey." Felicia waved at me lightly, which was unusual from her.

"Hi." I said back with a raised my eyebrow at her but slid my ID before packing it away. "You're okay?" I asked when she was looking around and biting her lip with a worried look on her face. She looked at me and nodded her quickly putting on a pained smile.

"Yeah...yes." She muttered rubbing her arm before scribbling something down on papers or at least pretending as the pen was hovering over the paper.

"Uh you're not touching the paper by the way." I pointed out and she looked like she didn't know what I was talking about for a second. She let out a laugh, a rather uncomfortable laugh. Nodding her head several times time during her laughter session it was like I just told a funny joke.

"I have to go." Felicia then said closing her books and let her pen fall from her fingers. I frowned that but nodded anyways and stepped back. I watched Felicia wave a quick goodbye and then quickly skipped to somewhere. Sighing I decided to leave and not think about it but rather think about the dinner Daveed was planning and his family. That thought did not make me feel better.

When I got inside of the apartment I took of my shoes before I made my way to the kitchen where music was coming from. I was still holding my bag as I walked into the kitchen I saw Daveed standing next to the stove that had a pot on.

"Hey." I greeted him putting my bag down on the table, and my eyes couldn't help but notice that Daveed was wearing a sleeveless top exposing his well build arms. Daveed turned his head to me smiling at me.

"Hey, hope you don't mind that I already started." I shook my head and shrugged of my jacket.

"No, when are they coming anyways?" I asked then wandered over to Daveed peeking into the put which was cooking the macaroni. "You're actually making macaroni?" I snickered lightly and Daveed looked at me narrowing his eyes playfully.

"Can't I let out my inner Thomas Jefferson." He spoke putting on a small french accent and raised one of his eyebrow. I laughed as I leaned against the corner of the counter and watched him stir the macaroni that was starting to boil in the hot water. "They are going to be here in an hour." Daveed murmured and I nodded, turned around and walked over to the table where the cook book was lying open. I started skimming through the page before Daveed spoke out again. "Sorry I pulled you into this. I just totally forgot and I didn't think about how you feel about it." I turned to Daveed seeing him rub the back of his neck his brows frowning, I realized that he was uncomfortable as much as I was.
