Chapter 940 - Talking about it is making me miss you more (2/2)
”You are using them again?”
”They are rising in popularity, and even if I don't want to admit, it's giving my designs an additional exposure. If tonight goes well, I might sign them on as official faces of EY.”, Ellie was relieved to hear that Jasper calmed down.
Jasper wanted to remind Ellie that both Saran and Aiden have jobs already, but he decided not to spoil her mood. ”OK. I see you are busy, and you don't have the time to talk to your boyfriend. Good luck! I will call you later tonight.”
Ellie didn't want to address his childish provocation. She already said that she has the time for him, and they are talking for half an hour already! Ellie was about to say 'bye' , but then she heard Jasper smack a kiss into the phone. There is no way she is returning that! Not with her two assistants and Sarah and Aiden watching!
She ended the call and swiftly typed a message with few kiss-sending emojis.
”Hey! You are here!”, Ellie shook off her kiss-sending thoughts and got into the work mode.
Sarah and Aiden are impressed with the outfits that Ellie showed them.
”See? It's a good deal, right?”, Aiden needed a confirmation.
”Yes, yes…”, Sarah has to admit. The outfits are amazing. And added appeal is that they are couple's outfits.
”Are you uncomfortable doing this?”, Ellie asked when she noticed hint of Sarah's reluctance.
Sarah looked at Ellie and glanced at Aiden who had 'guilt' written on his forehead. She thought how there is no point in making an issue out of Aiden accepting to be Ellie's model for both of them without talking to her previously. She told Aiden that it's OK. And she is already here. ”It's fine. I will consider this as a step in conquering my fear of stage fright.”
”That's the spirit!”, Ellie exclaimed.
About half an hour later, Ellie was checking how the skirt fits on Sarah…”Did you gain weight in your hips?”
”Gain? If anything, I lost weight.” Sarah remembered how previous week she was with Master Hollow and the meals were definitely not something that would make her gain weight.
Ellie scrutinized Sarah's mid-section. ”Are you sure? This skirt is tailored based on your previous measurements… And I always leave a bit of wiggle room because it's easy to shrink the size, but this is already a tight fit.”
Sarah swallowed nervously while trying to ignore Aiden's excited expression. He obviously heard Ellie's comment.
Well, they will find out in two days.
If she is not pregnant, nothing changes. But what if she is...?
Sarah never thought about pregnancy and being a parent before. Last two weeks she is pushing thoughts about her irregular period and what it means away because she does not want to think about it. She is not ready. Both of them are young, and reckless, and irresponsible, and... Now that she sees that grin on his face, Sarah hopes that she is pregnant and that everything is fine… and that everything will be fine. Because she wishes that he always glows like that.
Her mood dropped when a question popped in her mind: can she even dream of having a baby at this time when so many have other plans for them?
A second later she looked at Aiden and met his loving gaze. Without her realizing, the dark clouds above her head disappeared, and she smiled. He can do that: make her believe that anything is possible and that everything will be OK. As long as they are together.
