His Hybrid Alpha

08 || Bed Dilemma

The following day, Logan and I headed straight to a furniture shop. I didn't tell him I was looking at beds for him. I was also thinking about moving him to that vacant room beside my room. I should ask him to take a day off today and he can work on cleaning up the room.

I stopped in my tracks as I suddenly realized something. He was 3 days into the trial program and here I am already thinking of asking him to move in with me already. He wasn't going to stay with me until he was pfficially my personal assistant. Well, I think he could make it to the end of the seven days. Everything will be fine.

I'll just place the order and put it in the spare bedroom. If he decides he doesn't want it, I can always convert it to a guest bedroom... But I don't really like other people hanging out at my house. I'd just sell the bed online. I sighed heavily to myself.

Why am I thinking so hard about this? Why can't I just bring myself to wait for the week to finish and then I could decide on what I actually want to do?

"Dr. Burton?" his sweet voice calls out from behind.

"Are you looking at beds for me?" he asked when I didn't answer. I just completely froze when I heard his question.

"What makes you think that Logan?" I asked.

"You've been talking to yourself and I kind of heard bits of it." he awkwardly laughs.

"What?" I gaped at him. "You did?"

"Just a bit. Don't worry. I appreciate the thought, sir. But you haven't made the decision if you want to hire me or not. No matter what you would end up deciding, I would respect that decision." he smiled.

He said it like he was going to say goodbye. As if he was willing to let go. It's only been a few days and I could already feel myself getting too attached to this person. I excused myself from Logan and sprinted out of the store. The breaths were coming in short and heavy. I want to go home. I need to go home.

I hopped into my Jeep and drove to my parents house. They were obviously so happy to see me back home, but became very concerned when they sensed that something wasn't right.

Why am I acting so stupid? This all got triggered because of the whole bed situation. I threw myself on the bed and hid under my blankets. I closed my eyes and took deep breaths in and out. I continued doing that up until I felt myself calming down a bit. I eventually fell asleep and despite being a usually light sleeper, I wasn't woken up by a single noise.
