Chapter fifty-eight
Jack:
I had an amazing time tonight, Princess. Thank you so much for agreeing to go out with me.
Margot:
:) No, thank YOU! I can’t believe you pulled that off.
I had forgotten all about L'éclat du Chocolat
I had an incredible night!
Jack:
Does that mean I get to take you on another date?
Margot:
1000%
Seriously, the best date I’ve ever had.
We didn’t even get to my usual favorite part of the night! ;)
Jack:
I can be at your place in 30…
Margot:
Lol. Slow down, Jack.
I’m still in shock from that kiss
Jack:
Oh, you liked that, did you?
Margot:
Big time…
I’ve missed kissing you…
Jack:
I’ve missed kissing you too, baby girl. So much.
I’ve missed everything about you…
Margot:
:)
Jack:
:)
Margot:
Ugh. Work sucks today.
Jack:
You wanna tell me about it?
Margot:
Just a bunch of legal gibberish for the new location.
Jack:
Oh yeah, that stuff sucks. Thankfully, we have someone to deal with most of it.
Margot:
Do you like what you do?
Jack:
What do you mean?
Margot:
I mean, managing the club. Dealing with the day-to-day stuff.
Jack:
Hmm, I did when we first opened Rendezvous.
It was new and fun, but the bigger it became, the harder it was.
I mostly prefer the creative aspects of it now.
I’ve been training Aaron to take over the day-to-day for a while now.
I just haven’t had a reason to step down
Until recently…
Margot:
Ooo… And what’s this big opportunity?
Jack:
You, Margot…
Margot:
Oh…
Jack:
I was an idiot before not to chase you while you followed your dreams
This time, I want to follow them with you.
Margot:
Well. I don’t even know what that is anymore.
I love designing. And I thought a storefront would be great for the business.
But it just took off so fast, and every opening has been more successful than the last.
I love that we’re doing so well.
But I find myself too stressed to create new designs.
Jack:
My advice, Margot?
You seem to have a fantastic team behind you.
Let them take over the daily shit, and you do what you do best.
Margot:
You’re right.
Thanks, Jackie.
Jack:
Anytime, Princess. :)
Margot:
So I’ve been trying to declutter.
And you’ll never believe what I just found in the back of my drawer…
Jack:
A friendship turkey made of chocolate?
Margot:
:( Hamish died years ago, Jack. Why bring that up?
*sends picture of pink and white lingerie set
Jack:
Is that the same set you made for me years ago?
Margot:
The very one!
Jack:
2 things
1 - don’t you dare get rid of that.
2 - I’m going to need to see that on you again.
Margot:
*Sends picture wearing lingerie
Jack:
Jesus fuck, Margot!
Warn a man before you make him nearly come in his pants.
Margot:
:) You asked for it!
Jack:
I meant in person!
Margot:
That can be arranged.
Jack:
Jesus Christ, Margot. You’re killing me.
Full disclosure, I’ve just locked myself in my office
I’m about to get rid of this hard-on…
Margot:
*Sends GIF of Mr. Bean*
Jack:
;)
Jack:
Are you flying with Henry to LJ’s shower?
Margot:
Obviously. Why would I fly commercial when I can go on the family jet…
Jack:
Well, excuse me for wanting to make sure I’d get to see your pretty face
Margot:
Yes, Jack, I’ll be there.
Jack:
…
Margot:
What?
Jack:
Are you trying to join the Mile High Club orrrr...
Margot:
Um, who says I’m not already a member??
Jack:
Never mind I said anything…
Margot:
LOL
You should really think that through because if Henry were to see us, you wouldn't have anywhere to go.
Jack:
Easy, I’d just jump out
Margot:
He can parachute. Pretty sure he would jump out, catch you, and then drop you, just so he could tell everyone it was by his hands.
Jack:
Fuck. No, you’re right…
Another time then?
Margot:
Another time then
;)
Jack:
:)
