His Assistant [Milo Manheim]

Admit It

Carson gritted her teeth before looking over at Milo. Apparently in order for him to move in.. She needed to co-sign for his lease.

"Unfortunately even with his financial report and credit score. We still cannot solely lease to an individual under the age of twenty-one.." The leasing manager gave them a sympathetic look before giving them a minute alone. They had to pick the one place that had zero wiggle room on the matter..

Fucking LA and there overpriced housing..

"...And your positive Mason, Wil or whoever else your friends with won't want to be roomies?" Milo pursed his lips before looking out the window.
"I—they—I don't want any roommates.." He signed in frustration, raking his fingers through his hair. Of course this would happen to him.
"I just need to be alone."

Carson studied him for a minute, at a loss for words oddly enough. He seemed genuinely frustrated and as she thought about it.. Depressed? Anxious?
He was biting the finger nails on one hand, while his other hand nervously fiddled with the string on his sweatpants.

She peered over at the leasing agreement on the desk. Knowing full well that if Milo called his mom, asked her to come down here just to drop this bomb on her.. she'd flip.
Probably wouldn't talk to him for a couple days and then after a week or two of mulling it over.. Eventually co-sign for him.

But by then this apartment would be gone.. and Carson really didn't want to have to play referee between Milo and Camryn when they would have to go apartment hunting as a team.

Rick, the leasing manager finally walked back into the room as she made up her mind.
"T-thanks for your time but I think—-" Carson cut Milo off, he shot her a look as she just rolled her eyes at him.
"We will take it and I'll sign but I want it move in ready in the next 4 hours.. We have the first six months rent plus security deposit ready..." The teen watched in awe as his assistant used her usual demanding tone while signing her initials and name on the paperwork. "So who do I make the check out to?"
Another reason why Camryn insisted on making Carson Milo's assistant.
She was a closer, she got shit done.

"These are your welcome boxes, they include your key fobs that give you access to the gate, pool and gym and contain your apartment and mail box keys. The cleaning crew will be here in the next hour to get the place ready for you. If there's anything else you need don't hesitate to call. Welcome to your new home Mr. Manheim." Rick opened the door to the apartment letting them in for one last look around before the cleaning crew got there.
Milo tore into the box the second the leasing manager was out the door. Holding the keys in his hand.
"Holy shit.. I can't believe.." He was at a loss for words, surprising Carson enough to make her laugh. She hadn't seen him look happy in a long time..
The thought gave her a funny feeling in her throat. Had it really been so long since she saw him happy?

Did you actually ever care?
You were always throwing a pity party for yourself ever since you took over this job..

"Thank you!" She gasped as the tall teen clutched her against his chest. She couldn't even remember the last time he had hugged her, probably not since he graduated high school..

She briefly leaned into the hug just for him to pull away. Before she could give him a look, his hand grabbed the back of her head crashing their lips together. The feel of his mouth on hers forced her eyes closed. Her lips having a mind of their own, parting for his tongue nudging them apart.

Milo pressed his body tightly against hers, walking her back until she was trapped between him and the granite counter. He bit her bottom lip hard before releasing it swallowing her moans. Grinding his hips into hers as he groaned in approval.

Carson gasped at the contact, her fingers fumbling to grab hold of him. Clutching his hoodie unknowingly pulling him even tighter against her body. Her jean covered ass quickly met the unforgiving cold of the granite counter but it seemed to wake her up.

She pulled away just as his hand pulled one of her legs around his waist, his other hand still knotted in her hair.
They panted, staring at each other. Neither of them moving a muscle until Carson shook her head finally snapping herself out of it. Her arms flailed around as she tried to rip his hands off her.

"W—we.." Her hands finally found his chest giving him a hard shove. Milo stumbled back a couple of steps before he caught himself. "No— you can't keep doing this!" Carson finally stammered out, hopping off the counter. She grabbed the keys to his car before walking out of the unit.

Making beeline for the stairs, she desperately needed a minute alone.

What the fuck was that!

Fuck, drunkly hooking up with your boss was one thing.
Soberly kissing him? Felt severely worse.

Carson ran a hand through her tangled hair. Attempting to undo the mess Milo made of it while she tried to mentally get herself in check.

This couldn't keep happening...
Cammy would kill her.

"Car!" Ignore him, ignore him..

The sound of his sneakers slapping the payment as he tried to catch up with her became louder and louder. She was holding up his key fob to unlock his car when she mentally cursed. His slender fingers wrapped tightly around her wrist, snapping her around to look at him.

"You can't just run away every time you don't want to admit something to yourself!" Milo gritted out between his harsh breaths.

Carson tried ripping her wrist out of his grip but he wasn't having it. She sent daggers his way, her anger wining out against all the other emotions clashing inside.

"Admit what?!"
Milo dropped his grip, his face falling as a disgusted look appeared on his assistants face.

"Admit how much I fucking loathe babysitting you?" He gulped and recoiled, half expecting her to walk away again. However this time, much to his disappointment she continued tearing into him. "That I haven't been happy since your mom forced me to take over for you? That I fucking despise your spoiled ass?!"

Carson was panting not even understanding where all of the sudden fire raging inside her was came from but it didn't even matter. She couldn't stop the words from tumbling out of her mouth.
"I hate you."
