''Aww look at you too, so smitten. So how was it!'', Josh grinned at the two of them.

''The terrace is  very spacious'', William winked and the two of them burst out laughing leaving Macy confused.

''Thankyou for the wonderful dinner'', William quickly kissed her on the lips. She blushed slightly and pushed away, wrapping her arm around Josh's elbow.

''I'll see you tomorrow'', she waved back at him and they parted ways.

The next morning Macy couldn't wait to get to the office. She reached early than her reporting time. All night she was thinking about the events of today, he had asked for a chance and she would give him that. She was smart enough to sniff deceit from miles away but she knew William would never hurt her so like promised they would walk before they run.

''Morning Macy'', William beamed, he was unusually chirpier today, just how a day could make a difference. 

''Morning William'', Macy smiled back.

''I was meaning to ask you if you would like to come with me to the airport today, my sister Prim is visiting us from France for a vacation'', he informed and by the way of his looks, he was clearly fond of his sister, the only un-messed up part of his family.

''Of course William I would love to meet her'', Macy smiled genuinely and the two couldn't stop grinning at each other. The rest of the morning was quite monotonous until it was 12 and time to leave for the airport. They left his cabin hands in hands when Jason looked at them in surprise. William wasn't to fond of PDA's but he never hesitated from stating a claim on Macy, he was quite territorial in that way.

''Willy'', Prim jumped up to William and hugged him tightly followed by a punch on his muscles.

''Baby how have you been'', William smiled fondly at Prim.

''Oh you look so old'', Prim skimmed her fingers through a light stubble on his face.

''Prim meet Macy Henderson my girlfriend'', William shyly announced. Macy turned red with embarrassment, just what a way to make things public. He hadn't even given her a heads up before introducing her to his sister so officially but then she knew him better.

''Your what'', Prim asked shocked, maybe it was a first for the family as William had never introduced any girl to them, though his personal relationship had many girls before.

''So nice to meet you Prim'', Macy smiled and Prim pulled Macy into a hug, ''Oh cut the formality'', she winked. The two of them led Prim to the car and William loaded her luggage.

As they left the airport Macy resumed, ''William please drop me at the office''.

''What I thought you were going to spend the day with us'', he muttered slightly annoyed.

''Hey I'm giving you some sibling bonding time so take it and besides a girl needs a break from her over bearing boyfriend'', Williams face fell but he relaxed when she winked at Prim who was grinning at the backseat of the car.

''Macy please come over for dinner today'', Prim begged.

''Of course I will be there, ain't gonna leave you getting bored with Mr. Mogul here for long'', she laughed and waved them a goodbye and scurried out of the car for the office building.

''Did she just make a joke at your expense, oh god I love her already'', she laughed at William who simply shrugged.

''Hey I have my moments too smart ass but I love her when she goes all sassy and stuff'', Prim smiled at William, he had changed for the better.

''And besides, she left us two alone so what are we going to do, let's go shopping'', Prim was an insanely huge shopaholic so the fact that she had just landed wasn't going to stop her. William nodded, slightly annoyed with Macy for ditching him for work.

''I know you did not quite like that hot shot'', she looked at him slyly.

''We are going my place first not the family home. I don't want their filthy paws on you Prim. You will be staying with me'', William's face hardened.

''Haven't things improved, mom and dad sounded cool when they called me yesterday while inviting me for dinner'', she sighed knowing it was a tough topic for the both of them.

''Oh you have to see them when I go home, they act like they are love struck couples all smooching and hugging and what about the dinner. If I am not invited you are not going'', he growled. Back was the over protective brother she thought had taken a back seat.

''Ok fine and Jake had called too, but I'm not gonna go meet him'', she promised. There were voice messages when they reached home.

William, hope Prim reached safely, love, mom

William I guess Emily has invited Prim over for lunch tomorrow. Please avoid it. Take Prim somewhere because Emily has planned the usual Jake conversation, love, dad

''Just look at them'', William growled.

''Good, at least we can go shopping tomorrow'', Prim clapped her hands excitedly quickly pushing aside what little hopes she had from her parents. Macy had called up William to update him on a few meeting pushed to tomorrow and that she will be there for dinner on time. William's face had softened immediately.

''Aww look at what she does to you. Just a moment ago you could have swallowed a man and after her message I doubt you can hit a mosquito. You mister are going to spill about how you two met, I want all the juicy details and more'', Prim started laughing which turned louder when William started tickling her.

''Alright, we met at a company I owned and she worked at, the company was liquidated and owing to her smart mouth I put her out of jobs, but seeing her resume decided to hire her myself. You know she's like a mystery which I wanted to unravel. Over the time we became closer, she is very strong headed and confident. That's what I love about her the most but above all she has a heart of gold. It scares me sometimes, she get's into trouble for that, seeing good in people must be so suffocating all the time right. I've never heard her speak ill of anyone ever'', he smiled. Prim got super emo seeing her brother so in love, he deserved the world.

''It isn't suffocating, it's liberating. Look I know what you are talking about, our family is just damaged, but there are good people in the world you know, and you are lucky to have found yours. Cherish her William, that's all I can say. Apart from that, I want to meet mum and dad, please William'', she begged hoping William to give in.

''I cant stop you, all I can say is that I would prefer you going to meet them in my presence, so I will take you'', he said.

''I would love that, thankyou and when are we expecting Macy to be here, I need a nap before that, don't want jet lag to haunt my day'', they laughed. William let her go to bed while he sorted some work in his office waiting for Macy.
