Alexis's pov

I was setting up contacts and sending out mass emails to Harry's clients and other partnering businesses that I was now the step before Harry and any meetings and/or none essential communication was to be done through me

How well that was going to go I'm not sure, the follow through probably won't be great at least not for awhile

It was a bit weird right now with my set up I was sitting on the other side of his desk with my laptop... that was the set up

Not that I was upset to be around him he's easy on the eyes, rather quiet, and smells heavenly

"How did you sleep?" I asked hoping to spark some kind of conversation

"Well" he answered stiffly

"Any dreams?" I pressed on

"No"

I pursed my lips slightly I can get anyone to talk, I can get anyone to laugh he's just proving to be a bit more difficult

Suddenly he stood and grabbed his phone "let's go"

I hurriedly unplugged my laptop taking the cord stuffing it into my laptop case and maybe not so gently sliding my laptop in "go where?" I put that bag as well as my purse on my shoulder

"Meeting" he held his door open for me

"Thank you" I smiled at him he nodded

It was odd everyone was just talking now it's so quiet "good morning!" I greeted anybody close enough I just got some limp smiles and half hearted waves

We got into the elevator "no one talks that much around here huh?" I looked at Harry

He cocked an eyebrow "they just don't talk to me"

I frowned "Why?" He just gave me a shrug we stepped out he walked straight out the doors there was a man holding open the door to a car that I wasn't really familiar with but whatever it was it was expensive

Harry slipped in I hesitated till he patted the seat next to him I got in setting my bags by my feet I looked at my surrounds as I buckled up I noticed he didn't "seat belt" I hummed

He looked up at me from his phone he didn't move though

"Here" I leaned over him grabbing his seat belt buckling him in

"You have a tendency to invite yourself into my personal space" he didn't sound too happy

"I'm sorry... but I mean we do share a desk n all" I shrugged

The rest of the ride was silent but he did adjust himself in his seat belt

We pulled up at a big warehouse type building "what's this?" I asked

"My shipping company" his driver parked and opened the door he held a hand out to me

"Thank you" I smiled Harry got out behind me he started walking so I followed behind as soon as we stepped in a man grabbed Harry and pulled him for a hug

"HARRY!" He patted his back making a loud hollowish sound "It's been ages mate"

"2 weeks" Harry said and I swear I could see a smile start on his face (it didn't finish)

"Exactly ages" the brunette Irish man laughed he saw me "well hello who might you be?" he shoved right passed Harry

"That's my new secretary I was telling you about" Harry said

"He certainly didn't tell me how pretty you were I can tell you that" he held a hand out to me "Niall, Niall Horan"

"Alexis, Alexis Dixon" I shook his hand "it's a pleasure"
