“Oh and some guy by the name of Juan Diderot from Pampered Kids contacted me about doing a safety evaluation of the penthouse,” Jessica said letting go of Aedan’s hand. “I would love to stay longer but I am meeting him to give him a tour of the house. He will point out what needs to be fixed,” she said taking the cup of coffee Margo was about to hand to Aedan. Downing a sip she then dutifully passed it to Aedan before handing him his sandwich from Evie’s. “See you tonight,” she kissed him. : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Lt Commander Jessica Vaughn. XO : : : : : : : : : : : : “Wait who? You know I have people for this, I don’t let just anyone sniff in my own things without my approval.” Aedan said as he looked at her with a curious glance. : : : : : : : : : : : : ~Aedan Teller : : : : : : : : : : “Your things,” Jessica leaned back and cocked an eyebrow at him. “You mean our things right,” she waited for him to reply. : : : : : : : : : : : : : “Oh do I now?” he said as he stood up, not hiding back a smile as he pulled her close. “Yes, our things. You are my everything, but I still need to go through my guys. If I ignore my own people, they talk. I can’t have them thinking I am replacing them love.” : : : : : : : : : “Yeah but this Juan came to my office this morning. He had a portfolio and was so determined,” she laughed. “You know how it is. Young and hungry,” Jessica squeezed Teller’s middle playfully. “Even the great and powerful Aedan Teller was only a rookie at one time so I decided to give him a shot. He is coming by to take some measurements and present his idea. I will tell you what I think when you get home tonight,” she rose up on her toes and gave him a quick kiss before letting him go and getting ready to leave. : : : : : : : : : : Lt Commander Jessica Vaughn. XO : : : : : : : : “We can’t go giving charity cases to all the up and comers, that’s what regular people are for.” Aedan said as he pulled away shaking his head. “I’ll have my guys come by make sure everything goes smooth. I am not very trusting of people I don’t have on my payroll digging through OUR things.” he said as he looked back at her. : : : : : : : : ~Aedan Teller : : : : : : “Why would it not go smooth,” Jessica gave Aedan a suspicious look. “He is a decorator and I was the chief of security. I got this,” she said firmly. “And maybe…I am not so comfortable with your people. I mean OMAP is like a cult Aedan. Maybe I am not looking for a yes man to blow smoke up my butt or have you placate me.” : : : : : : Lt Commander Jessica Vaughn. XO : : : : “My people have been vetted, and you have nothing to worry with them. The cult of Aedan only exists on Pomexia Prime.” he said with a wink to her as he pulled her close and gave her a deep kiss. : : : : ~Aedan Teller : : Jessica let him kiss her for a second before she started to break out laughing. The kiss could have been knee wobbling if he hadn’t placed the image of dozens of men wearing black suits and women with perfectly coiffed buns and 8-inch stilettos walking around agreeing that Aedan’s word is law each time they passed one another. For some reason, the idea of his face with a cheesy grin on long rectangular banners flutter in the breeze took her to a place that was not romantic but comical. “Cult of Aedan,” she chuckled out wrapping her arms around his neck and trying to give him a hug. “Mr. Teller what I am going to do with you,” she looked up at him smiling. : : Lt Commander Jessica Vaughn. XO “Well you are going to go home, take a nice warm bath, wait for me by the fire place and I will give you an amazing massage. I figure I need to learn to treat you every so often right?” he said with a smile, it was clear he was enjoying the chance to dote on someone for once in his life. He was always about himself, Jessica helped him find he could love more than just his ego and bank account. ~Aedan Teller

“Mmmmhmmm that sounds nice but you treat me right every day. I’m your girl. You wouldn’t do anything less than that,” she said winking at him. “So no Juan even if I pout,” Jessica looked at him with a slight pout. Frankly, it didn’t really matter to her if she used Juan or not. Teller’s people were good, effective, and fast. At eight months pregnant she needed all three.
