Chapter 215 Shut me off

Christian grips the railing next to their car with tears in his eyes. "He's going to be fine, you've to believe that," Jared said rubbing his back. "We don't know that." Chris snaps. "True but I've faith in God and I believe he's going to be okay. Did you get to talk to Janice when you went into her room?" Jared asks.

"No, she was still sleeping." "I know this is the last thing you want to talk about right now but what does this mean for us leaving for Hong Kong tonight?" Jared asks. "Shit, Mr. Shin has been waiting for us to finish our previous project for a while now. We can't disappoint him again." Chris sighs.

"I also can't leave now; how am I supposed to leave now baby, my family needs me," Chris said looking torn. "Alright, take a breath, relax, you don't have to leave, if it's okay with you I could go take care of all this business stuff and you can stay here with your family," Jared suggested.

"Just tell me where you want me and I'm there or here, whatever you want," Jared said massaging Chris's fingers. "What if I want you here and there at the same time?" Chris asks. "I can do that too." "How?" Chris asks looking into Jared's eyes.

"Jared smiles as he opens the car door and took the tablet off the back seat. "I can hit three states in five days without leaving your side. All you need to do is keep this with you at all times." Jared said wiggling his brows. "Not the same, I won't be able to touch you," Chris said giving the tablet a distasteful look.

"True but you could have my face plastered all over that thing twenty -four hours a day for the next five days while I take care of business and you get to stay here with your family." "I would still miss you like crazy." Chris pouts.

"Well look at it this way, now whenever I annoy you, you can shut me up." Jared chuckles. "As if I don't know how to do that now?" Chris asks in a seductive tone, biting his lips. "True, you do but shutting me off for the hell of it could be fun too." Jared laughs.

"Okay, deal," "Now, one more thing, I really don't mean to sound insensitive but seeing as though I won't be able to touch you for five freaking days and Jessica did say to go home and get some rest and that she would call us if anything changes..." "Get to the point Jared." Chris snaps cutting Jared's ramblings short.

"I was wondering if you could consider coming home with me so we could spend a little time together before I leave for the airport?" Jared asks in a hopeful tone. "Okay." "I mean you don't have to if you don't want to, It may even be the last thing on your mind and again I don't mean to sound….." "Jared, I said okay, now shut the hell up and get in the damn car." Chris orders in a soft but firm tone as he got in the car and fastens his seat belt. "Oh shit, you don't have to tell me twice," Jared said quickly getting into the car.

Janice slowly open her eyes, it took her a few seconds to realize that Ty had entwined his fingers with hers as she slept. His head was currently gently resting on her stomach. Lifting her hand she runs her fingers through his mass of soft curls. He lift his head and his eyes flew to hers.

"Hi, kitten." He whispers squeezing her hand gently. "How are you feeling?" He asks sitting up and caressing her cheek. "Better, how is my pressure and our little bundle?" She asks in concern. "150 over 95, high but not severely high, we need to keep you here for a couple of days though, so we can keep track of it and our baby." He said softly.

"Okay." She said biting her lips. "Come now, don't worry, Mrs Alice will be bringing the kids by every afternoon after school." He laughs. "I miss them, baby." She said sadly. "I know kitten but we'll get through this, I promise." He said kissing her fingers. "I know." She smiles, and he smiles back but it didn't reach his eyes.

"Oh boy, something is bothering you, what's wrong baby?" She asks squeezing his fingers again. "Don't worry about it, it's just life I guess." He sighs. "Tyler Jackson, Spill before I hurt you." She said narrowing her eyes at him. "Kitten…" "Don't make me get out of this bed." She warns.
