Loathing Logan

Christmas Trees and Early Goodbyes

Logan

I woke up to the sound of my phone.

I was still pretty tired. Last night was unforgettable. A night I hope and wish to repeat over and over again for the rest of my life, if possible.

Sophie still doesn't know about my status. She doesn't know I have more than enough money to afford this room for a year if I wanted. But I know I have to tell her soon.

If there is one thing I've learned- is to never hide something from her. She deserves all my trust; Just like I know she has always trusted me.

I slowly open my eyes, the ring of my phone keeps going off. Sophie is still sound asleep in my arms, her hair covering her face makes me smile.

I slowly move my arm from under her and I turn to grab my phone out of my sweatpants pocket.

"Shit," I utter out as I see the phone number on the ID.

"Hey! Where are you?" I whisper as I quickly put on my sweatpants disregarding my underwear and slowly making my way out of the room so I don't wake her up.

"What do you mean where am I? Where do you think asshole?"  The squeaky voice of the little brat sounds on the other line making me chuckle.

"Watch your mouth!" I hear the other voice on the receiver making me chuckle louder.

I nod my head as I make my way to my room and change quickly, putting on my shoes as I give directions and hang up the phone.

I make my way back to the room where Sophie is asleep and wake her up softly.

"Sophie, Sophie." I caress her cheek softly making her sigh. Her eyes softly open, and she smiles as she looks at me.

"Good morning." Her sweet voice fills my ears.

"Good morning baby girl. I have a little surprise for you, come on, get up." I ask, kissing her lips as she turns and stretches.

"Ok." She says, as she slowly stands. I quickly help her change and get her to the living room.

By the time we begin to make our way out of the room, the bell rings and I sprint over to open the door.

"Room service." I hear again, and I open the door. A bell boy comes in with the stuff I had ordered, and Sophie looks at me curiously.

"Hey, what's all this?" Jason asks as he makes his way out followed by Aaron.

"You'll see," I say as I tip the guy and lose the door behind him.

"Why don't you take a look in the living room?" I suggest, making them run in there.

"What are you up to now?" Sophie asks, with her hands crossed over her chest. I pull her by her waist and kiss her lips, this time, getting a kiss in return.

"Wouldn't you like to know?" I tease her, making her chuckle.

The bell rings again, followed by a knock.

"Who's that now?" She asks, making me chuckle.

"Open it," I say making her walk over. I cross my foot over the other, leaning on the wall next to me.

Sophie opens the door, her eyes wide in shock as she sees my mom, Ashley, and the whole gang outside of the door.

"Oh my God!" I hear her yell, followed by joyful screams from everyone as they engulf her with hugs and smother her with kisses.

Mom knows about my stocks now. She knows how much I'm worth. She was pretty upset at first, but eventually, she caved in.

She was pretty impressed by what I was investing in, and she kept telling me how proud she was that I was thinking about my future.
