I wake up to the xylophone ringtone from the rose gold iPhone 6s near my bed. The phone vibrated against the wooden nightstand next to my bed and I groaned as I stretch my hand to grab the annoying phone.

I hang up the call and place the phone back on the bedside table. I jump out of bed and quickly make my way towards the bathroom. I have exactly ten minutes to shower, ten minutes to get ready, and ten minutes to eat. I Strip out of my pajamas and step into the shower after adjusting the water to my liking. I quickly scrub my body before rinsing away the soap. Once I was done I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a white cotton towel around my body and walk back towards my room. I quickly dry myself, add some lotion, and get dressed into a burgundy shirt that showed a bit of cleavage, a pair of ripped jeans, and beige heels. I add some light make up and let my hair fall into curly waves. I grab my engagement ring as well as a few accessories before walking downstairs towards the kitchen.

"Good morning Ms. Hamilton." Fernando greets and I flash him a smile.

Adrian was already seated at the island table reading the newspaper and sipping his coffee.

"You're wearing that to the office?" He questions as he raises an eyebrow and looked me up.

Ah, there's that stuck up Adrian!

"I'm not going to the office today." I answer before taking a seat at the table.

"Because why?" He asks his eyebrows knitting together in confusion.

"Sarah, one of my friends, needs me to take care of her baby sister because she was called into work." I explain.

Fernando sets down my good in front of me and I start devouring.

"Well next time you volunteer to be a babysitter please inform me earlier." Adrian states as he sets down his newspaper.

"Anything else your majesty wants?" I reply sarcastically only earning a scowl from Adrian.

Fernando places a bowl with yogurt and fruit in front of me and I start eating it fast.

"Woah, you may want to slow down before you choke." Adrian warns.

"I told Sarah I would go pick up Isma up from the diner in thirty minutes and it's already about to be thirty minutes." I answer.

"I'm sure your friend won't mind if you're a few minutes late, plus I can drop you off on my way to the office." Adrian suggests.

"Really?" I ask.

"Yeah, and if you're finished with your breakfast then we should get going." Adrian states as he stands up from his seat. I place the empty bowl in the sink before grabbing my beige bag and catching up with Adrian.

"The diner you were talking about is the same diner you used to work at right?" Adrian asks as we step into the black limousine.

"Yeah," I answer. "And um thank you for giving me ride there."

Adrian nods and I turn around to look out the window.

***

The limousine stops in front of the familiar three story building I used to work at. The chauffeur opens the door and I step out. I was expecting the door to shut and the car to drive away but instead Adrian climbed out and followed right behind me.

"No offense but don't you have work to attend?" I ask as I turn around with a raised eyebrow.

"Let me see," Adrian types something on his phone before turning back up to me and answering, "Nope."

"Did you just cancel all your meetings?" I question as I cross my arms over my chest.

"See the perks of being the boss include not having to show up at work now and then." Adrian answers. I turn around as a smile threatens to form on my face.

"Jane!" A familiar voice exclaims and I look up to find Sarah. She looked the same except that her hair was a bit longer.

"Hey Sarah!" I call out as I walk over to my friend and give her a tight hug. "Sarah this Adrian my...fiancé. Adrian this is my best-friend Sarah."

"Mr. McKeller it's nice to meet you." Sarah states as they shake hands.

"Call me Adrian, it's nice to meet you, too." Adrian responds with a formal smile.

"So, where's Isma? I can't wait to see her, it's been two years since I last saw her." I stare excitedly.

"She's over here." Sarah answers as she leads us to one of the booths. Sitting there was a little girl with brownish blackish hair and bright blue eyes.

"Janey!" She exclaimed as she jumped into my arms.

"Hey kiddo, how have you been?" I ask as I set her on my hip and hold her steady with my arm.

"Good, I am this many now." She answers as she puts up five fingers.

"Wow you're getting old." I reply with a smile which she returns.

"Isma you'll be staying with Jane for a couple of hours alright. Once I get out off work I'll go pick you up, alright?" Sarah informs Isma who nods excitedly.

Sarah hands me Isma's princess roller book-bag and I swing over my other arm.

"Her let me help you." Adrian states as he takes the book bag and Isma who was hesitant.

"Isma this is Adrian, he's my fiancé." I tell Isma who was hiding her face in the crook of my neck.

"Hey kiddo." Adrian states with friendly smile.

"Is he like you're pwince chwarming?" She asks.

"Yeah, I guess you can say that." I reply with a smile. "Do you mind if carries you while I talk to your sister?"

Isma shakes her head and I hand her over to Adrian.

"Hi my nwame is Isma." She states with a toothy smile which would melt anyone's heart.

"Here's a list of things that Isma needs, everything is inside her book bag and do not give her no more than two pieces of chocolate anymore and she gets hyper." Sarah explains and I nod. "Thank you so much for doing this. And it's so cute that Adrian is here with you."

"Yeah he cancelled all his meetings so he could help me." I state as I feel the same tingle I felt on our trip to New York.

"Aw that's so romantic." Sarah gushes. "You're so lucky you found someone like him. I still can't believe you didn't tell us that you were dating him even when we told you that you two would make a cute couple."

"We wanted to keep it a secret since he is famous and all and he didn't want the reporters all over me." I lie with a fake smile.

"Aw." Sarah states.

"Well I better leave you to work before John comes out." I joke before saying goodbye to Sarah. Isma said she goodbye before we head towards the limo.

"Is it okay if we stop by the office real quick? James has some documents he needs to give me." Adrian asks and I nod.

"This is a lwong car." Isma states causing me to smile adoringly at her.

The car parks outside of McKeller Industries and all three of us get out. I set Isma on the ground and we walk towards one of the elevators.

"Woah." Isma states as she looks around the building.

"This will just take a minute." Adrian reassures me and I nod with a smile.

"It's alright, we can wait." I answer.

Adrian, Isma and I walk into his office and find James sitting on Adrian's chair with feet on the desk.

"Who inviting you in?" Adrian asks half mad.

"That beautiful secretary of yours." James answers with a smirk. "Jane, it's nice to see you again."

"Hey James." I reply with a smile.

"Who is thwat?" Isma asks as she tugs on my shirt.

"Woah!" James states as he sits up straight. "I knew you guys moved fast but damn, a kid already?!"

"She's Jane's friend's sister dimwit." Adrian answers as he rolls his eyes. "Now out of my chair!"

Adrian pulls the chair from behind James causing him to fall with a loud thud. Isma bursts into laughters and I can't help but join her.

"Awdrian cwan I sit thwere?" Isma asks with her puppy eyes as she points to the now empty chair. I was about to kneel down and tell Isma that not now but Adrian stops me before I can.

"Sure." He answers catching both me and James by surprise.

Isma smiles and Adrian picks her up and sits her down on the chair.

"Are you ready for blast off astronaut Isma?" Adrian asks and Isma nods. Adrian rolls her over to the window while making spaceship sounds causing laughter to abrupt in the office.

"Woah, we're so hwigh up!" Isma exclaims as she looks down at the city. "Can you spwin me?!"

"Ready?" Adrian asks and Isma nods before Adrian starts spinning her on the chair.

"Whoopy!" Isma yells out.

"Well I better get going I have a meeting to attend but tell Adrian that the papers are already saved onto his computer once he finishes having fun." James states and I nod.

"Bye James." I reply as I give him a goodbye hug which he returns.

"Bye Jane, take care." He answers before walking out of the office unnoticed.

"Lwook Jane I am an airplane!" Isma exclaims as Adrian holds her up into the air with ease.

"Where's James?" Adrian asks as he sets a giggling Isma back down on the chair.

"He said he had a meeting but that the documents you wanted are already saved onto your computer." I inform and Adrian nods.

"Well then we should get going." Adrian states.

"Bwut I want to stay here." Isma pouts.

"We have ice cream at home." I reply and Isma immediately jumps of the chair.

"Ice cream!" She cheers causing both Adrian and I to laugh. For the first time Adrian look like the twenty four year old he was. No frowning, now scowling, no stern looks, just a a happy Adrian. I felt a warm feeling on my chest that made me smile. Why do I keep getting this feeling?

***

"I told you not to give her more than two pieces of ice cream!" I exclaim as Adrian and I chase after a hyper Isma.

"You cwan't catch me!" Isma teased as she ran towards the living room.

"How was I supposed to know?" Adrian asked.

"Because I told you!" I reply with a frown. "Now help me get her!"

Adrian and I both run towards Isma in different directions and corner her. Isma runs into Adrian who catches her and lifts her into the air.

"Gotcha!" He states causing Isma to scream and start giggling.

"Come on, how about we watch a movie instead of running?" I suggest and Isma nods.

"I wanna watch Frozen!" She states.

"Alright, let's watch Frozen." I reply and Isma starts cheering.

Adrian sets up the tv and puts Frozen on. We sit on the couch with Isma in between us. Ten minutes into the movie Isma starts falling asleep and I start feeling sleep come over me too. Before I know it my droopy eyes shut close.

I wake up to the sound of movement and I realize that Isma and Adrian are packing Isma's stuff. I then notice Sarah helping them.

"Sleepyhead is finally up." Adrian teases and I roll my eyes at him but smile.

"When did you arrive?" I ask Sarah who was know holding Isma in her arms.

"Ten minutes ago." She answers. "Adrian helped me pack Isma's stuff while you were sleeping. We didn't want to wake you up."

"Well I guess it's time to say goodbye." Adrian states before Isma hugs him.

"Bye Awdrian." She states. She walks over to me and hugs me. "Bye Janey."

"Bye kiddo." I reply with a smile as I ruffle her hair. "I'll walk you guys out."

"Alright, bye Adrian thanks for letting Isma stay at your house." Sarah states before we walk towards the mansion doors.

"Once again thank you so much for taking care of her. I owe you one." Sarah states.

"Don't worry, we had fun right Isma." I reply and Isma nods.

"Thanks Jane, bye." Sarah states before walking towards the yellow taxi outside the mansion. I suddenly receive a text from Sarah.

Underneath was a picture of Adrian, Isma, and I sleeping together.

"Sarah!" I yell out and Sarah laughs at me before getting into the taxi.

I look down at the picture once more and smile as a warm feeling spreads around my heart.
