Chapter 267 Cutting Her Visit Short



Atchoo!

"What a way to make an entrance", Suzy teased making Amy laugh.

"You made me walk all the way here", she complained as she rubbed her nose while walking into the sunroom. She found herself a seat and settled on a sofa opposite Suzy\'s.

"What are friends for?" She threw her a playful smirk making Amy glare at her. "Soooo.... there\'s something important I wanted to discuss with you..."

Amy sat up more straight and focused her full attention on her. "I\'m listening."

"So, I wanted to thank you for letting us come over to be a part of a very important moment with you. Honestly speaking, I\'m really, really honored and you\'re such a great company, a great friend. And I\'m also grateful for how your fiancé has been so good to Trevor and I", she poured her feelings with a hand on her chest.

"Hey, it\'s the least we could do. We should be thanking you instead", Amy eyes shone with sincerity.

"No, no. And stop, I don\'t start this conversation so we go on embarrassing each other with flattering words", she said making them both chuckle. She let our a soft breath before continuing. "Jen, as much as I\'d like to prolong our stay, I think it\'s best we cut our visit short. Trevor misses home and his friends and....."

"Trevor?" Amy\'s brows went up.

"Yes. He says he\'s not having fun. It would be wrong to force him to stay here with me... You know kids", Her let out an awkward laugh.

"Trevor? That Trevor?" She pointed at a figure running around in a cleanly cut green grass field.

The boy was cheering and laughing with some of Zach\'s young bodyguards. It looked like they were playing baseball and evidently having fun with it. Suzy followed Amy\'s sight and her face grew hot red with embarrassment..

"Okay I miss Steven!" She blurted out, embarrassment thrown out the window.

"You could have just said that", Amy said with a shrug and a smile. "Do you want me to have Zach arrange a ride for you? Give the man a surprise, I\'m sure he misses you as much."

"You had me on ride", she threw her a sheepish smile.

"Oooh!" Amy winked.

"Not like thaaaat!" She fanned her blushing face until she gasped. "Oh my gosh! Jen, you\'re leaking", she said worriedly.

Amy looked down at the wet patch with a frown. "Ugh! Come on."

"Why don\'t you get a breast pad? Otherwise, you might end up changing like a million times a day."

"I did and I\'m wearing one right now", she complained as she looked inside her bra.

"Go feed the child. You don\'t want them-"

"DAD!" A masculine yet anxious voice shouted from somewhere in the house startling Suzy.

"That must be Xavier", Amy commented as both women stood up.

"Because of Henry."

"Mm."

As they left the sunroom together, with Amy covering her chest, they heard the rushing footsteps echo in the mansion. Amy could only imagine how anxious he must have been feeling and anxious he was.

The ladies met Zach who was walking to the sunroom to find Amy whole shushing a hungry Roserie. Zach noticed the hands on her chest and her face grow red from embarrassment but remained quiet.

"I\'ll go check on the patient", Suzy excused herself.

Amy grew more embarrassed when she removed her hands to receive the crying baby. He shielded her as she lifted her shirt to feed the child.

"You\'re okay", he said with a peck to her forehead. She calmed down, feeling less embarrassed. He walked her back to their room with his arm around her waist.

"Your friend left already?" She asked noticing him accompany her instead.

"Mm. He had to report back to HQ for some paperwork."

She nodded as she stared at the feeding child in her arms and moved her shirt up and away from Roserie\'s tiny nose. They moved at a slow pace because of her.

Meanwhile, Xavier wished his legs could more faster than he was running. The West wing had never felt so far than in that moment but he kept running. He felt his heart almost lodge in his throat when he started to approach the guest room Edmund said his father was in.

He stopped to take a deep breath with his eyes closed. He did a few of those to get himself to calm down. When he opened them, his hand was shaking as he made to grab the door handle. He took one more deep breath, turned the handle and pushed his way in.

"Dad- Dad?" His brows rose as he froze at the door.

"Hey kid", Henry smiled.

Xavier stopped to take in the older man. He had gauze going around his forehead all the way to the back of his head. Half of his face was swollen and another gauze was wrapped around his left hand covering his palm. The man was injured yet instead of being in bed, there was....

"Hey. Mom, why are you in bed instead of Dad? He\'s the one who\'s clearly hurt. Did something else happen?" He asked in one breath.

"She passed out when she saw me like this", he explained.

"And I tried to nurse him but he keeps saying he\'s fine. You know how your father is", Victoria complained as she adjusted the sheets that covered her.

"You know how your mother is", Henry countered.

"Dad, are you really alright?" Xavier asked with a half frown and half hopeful expression.

"I\'m fine", he gave a light shrug and smile at the worry in his youngest\' eyes. Xavier visibly relaxed and began to walk to his parents.

"You\'re in pain", Suzy commented as she walked in. Henry made a non-committal sound and waved his free hand to brush her off when he saw Xavier start to worry again. "But we\'re observing him for any effects of a blunt force trauma. Otherwise, don\'t worry too much."

"Thank you", Xavier smiled after breathing a sigh of relief.

Both parents took in their son and saw how disheveled he looked. Victoria was touched and could only imagine how worried he was. Xavier must really love his father.

"You didn\'t leave during something important, did you?" Henry commented with a frown.

"Don\'t worry about it", he said with a smile.

Despite that, his mind could not help but drift off to the thought of Lorraine.... Would she find his arrangements a bit too much? It wasn\'t too much now, was it? Was it?
