Chapter 87

**Megan**

My whole body felt so relaxed and comfortable, I didn't want to move but it seemed Max had other plans. I can feel him licking my fingers. I open my eyes and look down at him and move my hand onto his head. He barks and jumps up at me and starts to lick my face. I move away from him and groan in disapproval of his way of waking me up.

"I'm up go away," I said trying to push the husky away from me. I look to where Logan lays to see he isn't there but there is a black box with a white ribbon and a card. I sit up and move my hands through my hair. I

look at Max and he tilts his head at me. I smile and pat the bed he jumps on it and starts to lick my face again.

"Max lay down," I order and he lays pretty much in between my legs. I reach for the card and open it to see 'To my Girlfriend on Her Birthday,' I raise my eyebrows and open the card to see it had no printed writing just what Logan had wrote.

'To Megan, You should have told me it was your birthday so this is your fault that it's late if it's late next year which it won't be it will be my fault. Anyway hope you had an amazing day which I know you didn't because you didn't tell me it was your birthday. Happy Birthday Babe, Logan xxx. P.S do you like being called babe if you don't tell me. Xxx'

I smile and pick up the black box with a white ribbon. I untie the ribbon and open the black box to see another box in white with the word 'Pandora,' etched into the velvet in black. I open the box to see a silver and gold charmed bracelet with pink hearts. I take the bracelet out of the box and unclip it and hold it in front of Max.

"It's really pretty isn't it?" I said to Max he just looks at me and I smile "and heavy for a charm bracelet and it's by Pandora," I said and put the bracelet on. I then get up out of bed and pull on my bottoms. Max sits up and looks at me. I walk out of the bedroom and down the stairs. I walk into the living room to see he wasn't there I then walk into the dining room to see him sat eating breakfast.

Everyone is up apart from Brendan. Logan his sat with his back to me and he's reading the paper. I walk up behind him and move my arms around him.

"Morning," he said taking a sip of his drink.

"Thank you," I whisper in his ear.

"Do you like it?" he asks.

"Yes I do," I said and he moves his hand to my wrists and strokes the bracelet.

"I'm glad took my awhile to pick it,"

"He's a little liar he just went into the shop and went I want that one, didn't even batter an eyelid at the 2k price,"

"Carl," Logan growls and picks up his phone and throws it at him. Carl ducks and the phone hits the back of his chair with a thud.

"Did you see how hard he threw that? He would have took off my head if I didn't duck," Carl said

"Too bad you ducked then," Yasmin said taking a sip of her coffee and Carl looks at her in disbelief.

"I bet you like it rough don't you,"

"Why what?" Julie asks ignoring Carl

"Everyone ignores me it's not fair," he huffs

"I bought her a bracelet for her birthday but she didn't tell me it was in February after valentines day," he said and looks at me. I smile and sit down in the seat next to him and look at him.

"Two grand?" I ask and he just glares at Carl "why would you spend that much on me?" I ask "and for my birthday at that,"

"Megan accept the gift and if you're not happy with it give it away," he said looking at me and then standing up "I'll get your breakfast," he said and walks out. I smile and then notice everyone looking at me.

"What?" I ask.

"Can I talk to you?" Melanie suddenly says. I look at her and nod.

"Now or..." I say.

"Urm just when you've got some time," she says.

"We can talk now," I said getting up. She looks at her boyfriend and I then realise she's actually in a mood with him. I frown and follow her out of the room to the stairs. "What's wrong?" I ask.

"What do you think of Cade?" she asks.

"Quiet," I said and she looks down.

"We had an argument last night," she says.

"Really?" I ask and she nods "that's surprising, you haven't been going out for long,"

"I know it wasn't anything serious really, I think the alcohol influenced it more than anything," she says.

"What was the argument about?" I ask.

"He wanted to sleep in my bed with me, Julie had crashed out on the couch down here and we were going to bed and he got a bit full on," she said and looks down. I look down at her and smile "I think we're ok now though it's just he gets a little funny with me sometimes,"

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"Angry like not all the time but sometimes I'll go to meet him and he'll just snap at me for nothing,"

"Maybe he's stressed out,"

"That's what I thought because he's been getting loads of work and I told him it was ok for us not to meet if he needed to do work but he say's it's find but then he gets stressed at me," she said and looks at me.

"Has she said sorry yet?" I ask and she shakes her head.

"Well wait and see if he said sorry to you for last night," I said and she nods and stands up. I hug her. "Are you coming shopping?" I ask.

"Yeah Logan told us about it," she said and I pull back. She takes my right hand and looks at the Bracelet Logan got me. "It's really pretty," she said and then looks at me "you look like you're starting to feel happy," she says.

"I think I am," I said and smile. She smiles and hugs me.

"I'm glad," she said and holds me tightly "I do hope he doesn't screw up," she said and I smile.

"So do I," I said and walk with her back into the dining room to see Logan back at the table and a bowl of coco pops. I sit down in my seat and look at them.

"What's wrong?" Logan asks.

"Nothing it's just been a very long time since I've had these," I said and he looks at me. "I'll just shut up and eat," I said and he smiles.

"George," he says.

"Yes sir," I look around and see him walk into the dining room from the kitchen.

"Can you get me the amount of money I'm allowed to spend?" he asks "please," he adds and George nods. "I don't understand why I'm still on a budget it's unfair," Logan said and Carl laughs.

"Well do we really need to go into the reasons," Carl said and Logan gets up.

"It's my money," he said finishing his drink.

"Don't act like a spoilt Brat," Scott says. I look at Melanie and give her a small smile.

"Where's Brendan?" I ask now ignoring Logan's conversation.

"He's not well, he's got a headache," she said "it's not a hangover cause he only had one beer last night and was on Cola all night," she states.

"He said he wasn't feeling well last night," Yasmin says. I frown and look down.

"He's asleep at the moment," Cade said and that's probably the first time I've heard him speak.

"Ok," I said "I'll go see him when we get back," I said and start to eat my breakfast.

Logan opens the briefcase and looks inside it. I lean forward and just see money. I look at him and I'm watching him count it. He takes two wads out and then closes the suit case. He then leans over and places it on the passenger seat of the limo.

"Is it just that amount?" he asks the driver named David.

"No you have an extra 500 thousand for this year you've already spent 100,000 this year," he said and Logan sighs "I know it's not fair but that's what you get for blowing three million in one year on parties,"

Logan smirks to himself and looks out of the window. I move his arm over my shoulder and lay my head on his chest.

"They have heard of your arrival," David said and Logan sighs "you have meetings with them starting tonight," he said and Logan looks at me.

"Looks like we should make the best of today," he said "well I should," he mutters afterwards.
