"I'll waitfive minutes for you to message me to say you're safe."

I nodded as I got out of Lilly's car, knowing those five minutes were likely being watched already. I couldn't see Bob and Phil's car. It either meant that they weren't here or that they were seriously good at their jobs.

"Be careful, Eves," Lilly then said as I went back into the car to grab my bag.

"You too, drive careful," I smiled back at her.

"And thanks for dropping me off."

"You look hot, you're an official MILF, my friend."

Snorting and shaking my head I closed the door and straightened my dress before waving goodbye. I was wearing a plain army green skater dress that has spaghetti straps. It was loose where I needed it most and fitted nicely around my breasts. I had on a pair of black leggings too, purely because it was chilly. Placing my long bag over my shoulder, I wrapped my arms around myself before starting the short walk down the beck to Kit's house. I wasn't sure who was going to answer the door, and I was still a little worried that Kit hadn't answered my phone calls.

With some luck, Kit may have fallen asleep after a hard work out session and I'd be able to slide into bed alongside him. The thought made me smile as I waited for someone to answer. When Jax did, I wasn't prepared for the look he gave me.

"Eves, Sweetheart. Hi," he breathed.

"Hey Jax," I gulped, knowing the last time we'd spoken wasn't a good one.

"Come in," he insisted, being overly sweet.

"I erm... Came to see Kit," I said as I placed my bag down on the floor beside my shoes. It was weird how after everything that had happened, I still felt so at home here.

"Kit isn't here," he said as I followed him through the house and to the kitchen.

I searched the wall for the clock, it was ten PM.

"He's probably got caught at work, shall I call him?"

Shaking my head, I placed my phone on the kitchen counter and remembered that I needed to text Lilly to let her know that I was safe. I did it quickly as Jax went about making some drinks.

"Look, Eves, I never—"

"It's okay Jax." I stopped him, knowing full well where this conversation was heading.

"I know why you didn't tell me."

He placed a drink of orange juice in front of me and sipped at his own whilst staring at me from over his glass. He was still dressed in what appeared to be his work gear. He wore a shirt and a tie with trousers that fit him perfectly.

"Have you just gotten home from work?"

He nodded as he placed his drink down and continued to stare at me.

"Has Kit told you that I work for Delta too?"

"He said you're a doctor at Delta."

He was about to speak again when we both heard a loud bang coming from the front door. I followed after him as he examined the hallway.

"Fuck sake, bro'," he cursed.

My eyes widened as Kit picked himself up off the floor and shut the front door behind him.

"Fucking door gave way on me," he mumbled to himself and it became clear that he was absolutely sloshed.

He'd been drinking, and that's why he'd come home so late? Kit looked at Jax and then saw me standing behind him and he smiled.
