New schedule

Coming out of the library they seen Alex coming down the hallway from the direction of the court room .Court had ended earlier then he thought it would today. He only had a few cases scheduled and one of them didn't even show up leaving him a few minutes to enjoy himself.

He stepped to the side with his arm draped over the back of a chair that set beside a table in the long hallway waiting for them to approach him.

When they meet up with each other Jackson handed him a yellow folder he was carrying in his hand . Alex took the folder looking perplexed and puzzled , Jackson nodded towards the yellow folder with a short explanation "that's your new schedule for the month, give it a try ,if you don't like it, I'm sure I can come up with something different.I will go over it with you in the dining room."

A little smile curled on Alex's lips, he nodded slightly , he really wasn't expecting Jackson to have his new schedule done already, with Ethan's unexpected visit and him trying to help Karmen find out what species she is. He thought it would be closer to the end of the week before he could come up with something cleaver and creative to help him.

When they set down at the dining room table Alex took out his phone to send Lexi's lunch order to the kitchen " sweetheart what do you want for lunch today."

Unexpectedly Karmen order not just for

her and Lexi this time she ordered for the whole table . " Lexi and I will have a grilled cheese sandwich and vegetable soup with a glass of Skim milk and for dessert fresh strawberries , Jackson and Ethan will have the porterhouse steak one rare and the other medium rare with a baked potato."

She ordered every ones food with efficiencies her and Jackson were quite the duo every thing they done it was done to the exact speciations and in the most effective manner, weather it was something complex like his schedule or something as simple as ordering lunch for everyone .

This made Alex wonder if this was something they both had inherited ,a trait of some sort ,from the different species they were mixed with.

Alex typed their lunch order into his phone sending it to the Kitchen staff, before he brought his attention back to Jackson

He had already rescheduled all Alex's court cases to save Alex the time of doing so .

"Ok, what type of magic have you worked out for me?" Alex ask him knowing it would be nothing short of fantastic and imaginative.

Jackson set in front of Alex, with one of his hands on Karmen's knee and with the other one he pointed to the yellow folder Alex had just laid on the table.

" open that up and I will go over it with you,

Alex flipped over the the top cover to reveal

Jackson's well orchestrated laid out plans.

" Alex, I have your court schedule down to three days a week, instead of scheduling a few cases a day, and working on all the other things you do in the evening like you have always done for years now. I scheduled you to be in court all day on Tuesday, and Wednesday"

Pointing to a page that looked like a calandra he explained to Alex how his Thursday's are scheduled.

"Now on Thursday three days a month you will only work half a day. But the last Thursday in each month you will be in the council meeting for the rest of that day.

That's your court schedule, let's move on to the rest of the things you do."

He flipped the paper in front of Alex over, pointing to a page with a high lighted time line on it. Briefly explaining to Alex how he had planned for him to get the rest of his work done in only three days a week.

"I put your payroll and a few other things on a business app like I use for my office it's on a new tablet I put it on your desk in your office. It's more modern than that thing you watch those Mickey Mouse cartoons on. It can do everything your computer in your office can do. That way you can take it with you and do them from any where with just a click of a button ."

"Now I have Lexi a schedule worked out she will be working four hours a day . On Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday , I have already put a desk in your office for her. I figured that is where you would want her to be." Glancing up at Alex to see if had any problems with Lexi working twelve hours a week . Not even speaking with a complete sentence quickly asking him " Got a problem with that ?"

Alex turned to Lexi who was holding onto his arm listening intently , and gladly agreed to help him with what ever she can to have extra time together . " I don't have anything else to do, while you're in court, this sounds perfect to me." Alex nodded and Jackson closed the folder ending his presentation with a positive voice.

"That will get everything you need to get done by Lunch on Thursday. Except for the council meeting once a month. With this plan you will have Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday off every week. This should give the two of you some quality time together "

At the end of his presentation to Alex ,Ethan excitedly shouted out

" Fuck Eddington do that for me."

Chuckling he glanced over at Ethan teasing him. Or more like the pot calling the kettle black.

"Send me a copy of your schedule and I will work something out ,maybe you can find another hobby besides partying every night."

"The hell you say, did you ever find a hobby? " Ethan shot back sounding amused that someone like Jackson would even mention finding something else to do besides partying every night. No one on Earth has partied more then Jackson Eddington , not at least anyone that's still alive to tell about it.

" No not really ,not up till now I can't say that I ever did before. But I plan on taking up t-ball and maybe even coaching a pee-wee basketball team soon." He stated to see Ethan's eyes grow wide at his comment.

He tripped and stammered over his words before they could come out of his mouth.

" Wh.,, what... I mean when is this going to happen?"
