Sorry for the delay guys. But school started again and I didn't really find the time.
Hope you like this chapter.

I sighed and looked at Jason who was on the backseat.

"If something happens. You ask your teacher for a phone and you call me immediately."

"Yes mommy."

"Are you sure you want to go. You can stay here you know? And we can do something fun." I said and Hunter laughed lightly stopping on the red light making me glare at him.

"Baby, relax. He will be back home tonight." He said taking my hand in his.

I huffed again looking outside.

"I don't want him to go."

He shook his head before looking at me.

"Daddy, Carlos calls me 'little boss'." Jason said.

"Yeah. I've noticed. Do you like being called that?" He asked as the light turned to green.

"Yes. But I'm not little. What about just 'boss'?"

"One day. If you work really really hard. If you don't, then you will stay little boss." Hunter said.

"But I always work hard."

"I know."

"So why I can be it now? I can take your place"

Hunter chuckled. "And what am I going to do if you take my position?"

"Sleep?" I suggested.

"No. I love making money."

I laughed lightly. "So you don't love working. You just love making money."

"I like both plus the power."

I smiled and look back at Jason. Hunter stopped the car in front of the school and Jason quickly took his seat belt off.

"Don't move." Hunter said getting out of the car.

He walked around the car as I opened my door.

"I said 'don't move'." He sighed taking my hand to help me out of the car.
"You seriously should have stayed home."

"No. I want to say goodbye to my baby."

Jason grabbed my hand and we stared walking to the school.

*******

"Okay baby." I said pulling him closer to me. "You call me right away if you need anything okay?"

"Yes mommy."

My eyes started watering. "And please be careful."

"I love you mommy." He said wiping my cheek and I laughed lightly.

"I love you too."

"Oooooohhh. Jason's saying 'I love you to his momma'." A voice laughed making us look at him.

I recognized him. He was the boy Jason was fighting with during the parents and teacher meeting.

"I can say 'I love you' to my mommy and make you cry." Jason snapped and walking toward him but I quickly grabbed his arm.

"That's my boy." Hunter chuckled.

I looked at him to see him looking at Jason proudly.

I turned my gaze back to Jason to see him glaring at the boy, who started taking steps back.

"Jason."

He turned to look at me. "He started it."

"I know." I smiled kissing his head. "Daddy and I are gonna go now."

Hunter picked him up. "I know how you are. So for your mom's sanity, which is my own, don't hurt yourself. Don't break any bones."

Jason laughed. "Yes daddy."

"See you tonight." I smiled kissing his cheek.

Hunter put him back down.

"Bye." He waved at us before running to a group of children.

I frowned as Hunter took my hand and started walking out.

We went back to the car silently. He helped back in and went to the driver's seat.

He looked at me and laughed when he saw the frown on my face.

"Baby. You act like he's going in the army. He is going on a school trip and will be back tonight, for dinner."

I sighed. "I know, honey. You're not going to work today, are you?"

"Nope. We go home. And you go back to bed."

"I'm not sleepy."

"You stay awake if you want, but you're still going to bed."

"No I don't wa-." He stopped me.

"Titanic."

"Well, I mean, if you insist."

He shook his head. "You're crazy."

"Well that's what happens when you spend too much time with a crazy man." I said giving him a look.

He laughed shaking his head.

"No but serious talk." I said. "I'm craving pizza."

"Okay. If you go to bed, I'll make pizza and Titanic come to you."

"And ice cream?"

"And ice cream." He nodded.

*** Flashback ***

I walked out of the washroom of the restaurant I was having dinner at with Hannah  and Matt.

I was so eager to walk out of it that a gasp escaped when my shoulder bumped with someone's arm.

"Do you always bump into people like that?" A familiar voice said when I was too busy rubbing my shoulder.

Is this guy made of steel? This thing hurts.

I looked at him and immediately recognized the guy that I bumped into me a couple of weeks ago.

"Sorry." I said quietly trying to walk around him but he grabbed my arm.

I stopped and just looked at him.

Handsome man.

Gorgeous man.

Piece of art.

And now I'm being a weirdo.

"I'm Hunter." He said pulling his hand out for me.

"Umh... Stella." I said taking his hand.

"How old are you, Stella?" He asked.

"You don't ask strangers for their age. It's rude." I said pulling my hand out of his.

"When I don't mind being rude. So how old are you?" He asked again leaning against the wall.

"Eighteen." I replied weirdly thanking God that I turned eighteen last week.

"Good."

"Good?"

"Can I take you out tomorrow night?"

I looked at him. "Why?"

"I want to know more about you. What do you think?"

"And why?"

He looked at me with raised eyebrows. "I like you. So you can give me your number and I will call you tonight for the details."

I looked at him wondering if he was serious.

He wants to take me out?

But I don't know him. All I know is his name. Is it safe? What if he tries something?

Well he is a stranger. He could hurt me for all I know.

Or maybe he just wants to play with me.

Stranger danger, right?

"Okay. You know what? I should give you my number. And then you can call me instead." He said handing me a card.

I took the card and looked up at him. "What if I don't?"

"If I don't hear from you by the end of the week, I know your name. I can find you just from it." He said getting closer to me and pushing a piece of hair behind my ear.
"Although it would be easier if you just call me. I really want to know more about you."

I let out a nervous sigh. I rubbed my palms together as my hands started shaking lightly.

I took a step back and turned to walk back to the table.

"See you soon Ella."

I looked back at him. "It's Stella."

"Bye Ella."

I shook my head and went back to the table where Hannah and Matt were waiting.
