Anastasia's POV

I ended up leaving his restaurant, making the trip pointless.

Me and Claudia ate and talked about her date with Kol. I think she really likes him.

I was currently in my office working on some papers when someone knocked on my door.

Hoping it isn't Bruce I invite them in.

"Come in." To my surprise my boss Charlie walks in. Then of course followed by him was Bruce.

"Are you busy? I need to talk to you." I shook my head and pointed for him to take a seat in front of me. Which he takes.

"What's wrong?" He looked like his mind was somewhere else.

"Mason had to go to France for a couple days since there was something important to do. We really need to get this project going, meaning we have to get as much time with Mason as we can. He said he's free for a couple hours there and if I could come to France and have a meeting there if we wanted." I have no idea where this is going.

"My wife is pregnant so I can't leave her unattended for that long." No wonder he's been leaving the office so much lately.

"I need you two to go there." I widen my eyes, I wasn't going anywhere with him.

"Why can't Br-Mr. Cameron just go alone?" I really don't want to go.

"Then have him come back and tell you everything. It's better if you two just went." I didn't look like he was gonna take no of an answer.

"When do we leave." We both look at Bruce. Charlie happy, but me I want to rip his head off.

"Perfect, we're gonna buy the tick-" Bruce quickly interrupted Charlie.

"We can take my jet." Of course he has a jet.

"Alright, you leave tomorrow. You guys come back on Thursday." We have to stay together for a whole four days. I'm gonna pass out.

Charlie left leaving me and idiot alone.

"Are you fucking crazy." He just leaned back in his seat and smirked at me. One of these days I'm gonna rip it off.

"This is strictly business, unless you want more." He mummers the last part but I still heard it.

"Go tell Charlie you can't go."

"I will do no such thing." Of course he wanted to be a stubborn fuck.

"Why not?"

"I've always wanted to go to France, Paris to be exact." He winked at me.

"Leave." I pointed at the door.

"Feisty, I like it." He got up and went for the door.

~~~

"So you're telling me, you're going on a private jet with Bruce Cameron. Everything is gonna be paid for, yet your disappointed." I nod.

Claudia came over to help me pack, or actually for just moral support. I think I'm still gonna pass out.

"Bitch, anyone would die for that and here you are complaining." I roll my eyes at her. She still doesn't know that I slept with him.

We tell each other everything but I just couldn't.

I feel sightly ashamed. 

No one had ever seen me for someone who would have a one night stand, and it would shock her. I know it would. And maybe it would change the way she saw me, and he wasn't worth having my best friend view me differently.

"You should let me watch Elijah, we would have so much fun." I was sending Elijah to Issac's because I didn't want May to have trouble.

Even though she says she doesn't I know she won't like having him there for a whole 4 days.She can barely stay home for a full four hours.

"Oh yeah let me leave Elijah with you, so I can come home to him being passed out drunk?" I think Claudia has a drinking problem.

"I quit."

"That's what you said last time." She rolls she eyes a picks up a black lace lingerie set. She smirks at me and raises a brow.

"Take this." I she puts it in my bag, which I took out right away.

"This is a business trip not a vacation." I threw it somewhere in the closet.

"Come on, you're saying you're gonna be staying with a hot motherfucker and you're not gonna jump his-"

"No." I didn't let her finish. I could feel the blush reach my cheeks, just great.

"Aw, is someone blushing." I punch her shoulder playfully and finish packing.

~~~

"Stay for dinner C." Elijah was sitting on Claudia's lap while I made some pasta for dinner. There was enough if she wanted to stay.

" I can't I have a date." She needs to stop talking in front of my son like that.

"Again, this is the fourth time in the last 2 weeks." Elijah sounded like he had Claudia's life all figured out.

"Alright young man, go help mom make food." I couldn't help but laugh.

She took him off her lap and gave us both a kiss on the cheek which we did the same back.

"Bye, C."

"Bye, E. Bye, babe." She left the house and me and Elijah sat down with our plates on the island.

"Mama, do you have to go?" I never want to leave, but this is important.

"Sorry baby, I have to." I gave him a kiss and we started eating.

A frown was planted on his lips the whole time.

I really do feel bad.

"How was your dad's?"

"It was fine, nothing like it used to be though." He frown and ate some of his food.

I put my fork down and wipe the corner of his lip. "Why?"

"Dad's just different. He was doing work the entire time, he barely hung out with me."

"I'm sure you'll have fun, you're taking your Ipad. So even if your dad doesn't hang out with you. You can play on it."

"Why can't I just go with C?"

"You know C. She's busy. Like you said, she went on a date four times in the last two weeks. She won't be able to leave you home alone." He sighed and started eating again.

"How do you feel, you're turning 5 in a couple more days." I changed the topic and saw him smile lightly. I bought him a couple toys but I had yet to buy him more presents. 

It didn't matter how many things I bought for this kid, he was the most humble person I've met.

Once as we were walking down the street he had one of his favourite toy cars in his hand. A little girl started crying since her parents didn't buy her any toys.

Elijah went up to the little girl and gave her his toy. The parents smiled and the little girl gave him a hug.

He ran back and smiled at me.

I really didn't want to leave but I know Charlie needed me to go. I also know he wouldn't make he go with Bruce if he didn't have a pregnant wife at home.

We both sat down and started a movie. He finally let us watch a different movie. We put on Jurassic Park. He loved dinosaurs.

~~~

The thought of going anywhere let alone France, a place I love going and going there with Bruce. Someone I want to hate so badly. Kinda made my feelings go all over the place. He makes it almost impossible to stay away from his annoying smirk, the way his hand feels on my waist.

I was trying to fall asleep for the past hour and half, yet this annoying bastard kept invading my head.

The thought of the night at his house made shiver appear everywhere.

I couldn't take it any more. I got up and went to Elijah's room.

I know it's bad to walk him up for myself but I had to.

"Baby..." I ran a hand through his hair and he softly groaned.

He kept moving as I called to him and played with his hair.

"Mama..." His soft voice said.

"Baby, can you come sleep with me." It's always supposed to be the other way around but now it's me asking him.

He got up and held my hand. We walked to my room and he laid in Issac's old spot.

He laid his head on my stomach and let me play with his hair. I feel bad for waking him but I felt myself drifting off to sleep.

~~~

My alarm woke me up to my son still sleeping peacefully in my arms. I couldn't help but smile at the sight.

I placed a kiss on top of his head. He groaned and squinted his eyes looking at me. He smiled and gave me a kiss.

"Do you have to go." That made me sad now.

"I'm sorry baby." He nodded understanding. He got up and went to the bathroom to pee. I got his toothbrush from his room.

Once he was done I went in and gave it to him. We both brushed and the smiles never faltered.

I got him ready and made him breakfast. I got a text from an unknown number.

Unknown: I'm going to pick you up from your house.

Me: Bruce?

Just to be on the safe side.

Unknown: Well no shit.

Me: Relax, be here done in 15.

The realization of me basically inviting him over hit. That's no weird at all.

~~~

Bruce's POV:

I slowly pull up to her house, I got her number from Charlie. He keeps giving me everything without a second thought.

I parked my car on the side of the road not wanting to take the empty space next to it.

I got out and for some odd reason I could feel my heart beating faster than normal. I took a deep breath and knocked on white door.

Less than a second later a little boy opened the door.

"Can I help you?" His voice was stern not a hint of fear in it. His eyes bore into mine making me chuckle.

"Is Anastasia home." The little boy backed up and yelled for Anastasia.

"Mama there's a man named-" So she did have a kid.

"What's your name." He asked me.

"Bruce." I tried my best not to smile at the little boy.

"-Bruce who wants to talk to you." I never been more amazed by a kid in my whole life.

"Tell him to come in I'll be there in a minute."  Her sweet and soft voice spoke without any imperfections.

"Come in." He let me in by moving out of the way and closing the door then locking it.

He took a seat next to me on the couch. There was a light frown on his face.

"What's wrong little man." I placed my hand on his shoulder.

"I don't want Mama to leave."

"She'll be back in a couple of days."

"Then what, she'll go back to work again leaving me with my aunt May or my dad?" I lightly smiled at him.

"Your mom is only doing this so that you have a roof over your head, have these toys." It felt weird to give someone a pep talk.

"I know but I don't want toys, I just want her. Sometime I think she just doesn't want me around. So she'll send me to someone's house. But she doesn't realize that I just want to be with her." Never in my 23 years on this planet have a heard anyone, yet a child speak such passionate words.

"Listen little man, your mom loves you very much. I'm sure she has here reason. She really does love her job. But I can just tell by the person she is, that the only thing she loves more is you."

"Alright I'm ready." Anastasia walks downstairs with a little suitcase. She's wearing black sweats and a cropped tank top.

"Trust me bud." I fist bump him and got up.

"Ready." She nodded and kissed the boy.

"Dad should be here in a minute." He smiled and looked at me. I nodded at him and he nodded back.

There was a knock at the door and Anastasia walked towards it.

"Hey little man, what's your name." I realized I don't even know his name yet.

"Elijah." He said proudly.

"That's a really nice name." He smiled and a masculine voice came from the door.

"Elijah come." Elijah ran to the door and hopped in the mans arms.

"Who's your little friend." The man spoke pointing at me while still holding the boy.

"That is none of your concern, take him home now." The man rolled his eyes and glared at me.

"Ready?" She asked. I nodded and went out first.

She took her bag and headed for the car. Why not I thought to myself. I went to take her suitcase but she was quick to move my hand.

"I have hands Bruce." She rolled her eyes and put the suitcase in the trunk. She probably thought the attitude she showed would get me mad, but it turned me the fuck on. It made me want to fuck her even more than I already did.

She got in the passenger seat and put her belt on. I sat in the driver seat and started the car. I felt her body lean over mine, I looked down. She reaches for the belt and buckled me in my seat. I looked behind her and I saw her ass.

"Don't need you dying on me Cameron." She lifted herself up and leaned back into the seat. How I want to bend her across my knee and spank her until she's begging me to stop.

I drove to the jet's hanger. I owned the airport that my jet was at. I had them close the place down so I could go in and take off. They would open back up after we left.

We pulled up next to the jet and she gawked at the plane. It was an all black plane with black interior. The side had white cursive writing with the word Cameron written on it.

I got out and she followed me. My luggage was already on the plane so I didn't have to worry about picking it up. She took her suitcase and brought it closer to the plane.

"Real cliché." She said as I took the suitcase without letting her argue. I handed the bag to the staff for the plane and she gladly put it away. She didn't enter the plane until I was standing right behind her.

"Today princess." She turned her head and glared at me. She slowly started walking up the stairs being careful not the trip. Though right before she could get in successfully, she missed the last step causing her to fall straight into my arms.

I stared into her green eyes and there was nothing but joy. I could feel the goosebumps that accompanied with my touch on his waist.

It felt like forever before she finally cleared her throat and got back up standing on her own feet. She got in the plane and took a seat by the back. Of course I took the seat next to her. My staff Gina took a seat by the front.

"Are you ready sir." The pilot Dean said.

"Yes." He nodded and went to the front and entered the room.

"How long is the flight gonna be."

"About 7 hours and 30 minutes." I don't know how I remembered that but I did. She nodded her head and looked out the window as we slowly started to make our way into the air.

To my left the breathing became unsteady and heavy. I looked at Anastasia was extremely red. She must be scared of planes no wonder why she took forever to get in.

I placed my hand over her and drew circles on her hand.

That didn't stop her from being scared. Her eyes were shut and she blew breaths in and out.

"Hey, it's okay." I once this in a movie so I took her body and lifted it so it was on my lap. No way would I have thought she'd actually let me do it.

She laid her head on my chest and I could feel her started to calm down. I felt weird to hold a girl so close to me.

I ran a hand through her hair and she relaxed into my touch. She brought her arm around my neck and ran her hands through my hair.

Fuck that felt good. It was as if God spent time just to make her hands that soft. She twirled pieces of hair between her fingers.

What was going on with me. I've never had a woman sit on my lap before. She was different I thought. She didn't want me for sex, she straight up rejected me.

'Well technically she doesn't want you at all.'

How do you end your inner voice.

Even if I wanted to pick her off me, I couldn't. My body just physically won't let me. I felt my leg go numb. I wanted nothing more than to stretch it out, but that would require getting Anastasia off me and that's not happening.

Her breathing was better now and still playing with my hair. A throat being cleared snapped us both out of our trances. Gina was staring at me with her brown creepy eyes.

"Can I get you anything."

"Anastasia, want anything?" She shook her head and continued to lay in my chest.

"Get her and I burger, and get me some bourbon." What does she like to drink.

"And a glass of water." She smiled and walked away.

Anastasia got up and went back to her seat. Fuck I need to feel her on my body again.

Gina was quick to bring the food and drinks for us and I thanked her. Fuck is wrong with me. I don't thank people. I know it's human decency but who cares.

I could tell even Gina was a bit taken back, but she just walked back to her seat.

"She your girlfriend?" Anastasia asked me.

"Wouldn't you like to know." I couldn't help but smirk. Was she jealous. I love jealousy on a woman.

"Yeah I do, that's why I asked." She looked at me like I was the dumbest person ever.

"No, I'm only available for you." She put her hand in my face thinking it was gonna block me away. I felt childish as I licked her hand and she squealed and took it away.

"Ew, you weirdo." I laughed and ate a bite of my food.

~~~

I'm bored." She sounded like a little kid.

"And what can I help with." I was emailing some people back about some business and rescheduling meetings.

"I don't know." She took her phone out but I grabbed her it quickly.

"Hey!" She tried to reach for it again but I pulled away so she landed right on my chest. She gulped and I smirked.

"We're about to land sir." Of course she had to ruin it.

"Okay." Anastasia took her phone back and sat in her seat.

On a trip together would could happen?😏
