There are days that it pisses me the hell off

And now, because the moron who had been in our depart schedule of our job quit, I have to work alone with Nate

Fuck

I sit back in my chair and look at the tilasses off and toss thethe weekend with a pint of ice creaether, Montgoazines I’ve had dinner with gazillionares and hung out with movie stars I have four older brothers who tease ht me how to kick ass

I can handle the sexiestmy wicked ith hiether, check that all o to the bathroo

I’ht blonde hair is still holding the loose curls I rolled into it thisoff loss, straighten my simple cranberry-colored dress and skiure I was blessed with excellent genetics I’m not as sexily curved as Natalie, but I was blessed with decent boobs, a perky ass, and a figure that got azine Three times I work out hard to maintain my shape

Content with my reflection, I walk briskly in ather the files Nate requested along with my phone and walk down the corridor to his office His personal assistant, Mrs Glover, is sitting at her desk She’s an older worey hair and shrewd brown eyes Her s She scares the hell out of me with her sharp efficiency and her crazy ability to anticipate Nate’s every o on in"

"Thank you" I nod at her and s the door

"Co" Nate looks up from his computer and nods, his face completely blank

"Sure" Nate’s office is vast, with large-scale, dark office furniture The chairs sitting in front of his desk are plush, black leather There are shelves fro with hundreds of books and files, meticulously in order, no doubt by the efficient Mrs Glover Behind his desk are large ith a view of the Space Needle and the Sound

It’s beautiful

I’m not sure Nate even pays attention to it

I perch at the edge of one of the black chairs and set the files on Nate’s desk, expecting hiht to the point

"How are you?" he asks, his voice soft

"Um… fine, thank you" What the hell?

"I’m sorry about the short notice" He leans forward and braces his elbows on his desk, lacing his fingers, and keeps steady eye-contact God, those gray eyes are distracting Al as his hands, and the delicious way he…

Enough

"It’s part of the job" I open a file and try to pretend that my cheeks aren’t flushed "So, what’s up with this account?"

"How are Natalie and Luke?"

"They’re fine" I sit back in the chair now and eye hi a personal conversation? "Natalie is due in just a feeeks"

"That’s great, good for therin and I findit His hair is pulled back off his face, as usual His chiseled jaw is freshly shaved, and he’s wearing a black suit with a black shirt and blue tie He never takes his jacket off to roll up the sleeves, and I briefly wonder why, then reet back to the conversation at hand

"Yeah, they’re excited I’ the baby shower next weekend"

"I promise not to make you work next weekend," he winks at me and I about fall out of my chair
