The weekend passed in literally thirty minutes but I did find out what happened between Rose and Nick. Apparently, Nick told her that he was not interested in being with her after spending days together. I guess it wasn't right or meant to be, but it is very weird.
I tried to put my hair into a respectable bun but it would just undo itself. I thought about Brandon a lot over the week. We've only known each other for a short space of time but I can confirm that I like him. I am not sure if he likes me back. Being an orphan meant no attachments and only looking out for yourself. I've been doing that all my life. Thank God I found rose when I did. Not sure where I would be without her.
I wonder what type of family Brandon has, any brothers, or sisters? I really have to get to know him better before I get too deep. You never know what kind of skeletons could be hiding in the closet. I headed on to the train and soon arrived at work.
Mr. McCoy did keep his promise though. There is much more staff on this floor now including blue eyes, whose real name turned out to be Michael. We have lunch every day and he is surprisingly funny. It's been a long week I can't wait for the weekend. Maybe get a facial or a manicure. I feel as if I have to impress Brandon... always. I've been avoiding a real date with Micheal because I'm not sure how Brandon would feel about me dating another employee but it's just coffee and I'm single right? Of course.
I waved at Michael over his cubicle and he blew me a kiss in return. I hid my blush and headed to the boss.
"Good Morning sir, here is your morning coffee."
"You look stunning," Brandon said as he raked his eyes from my head to my feet. I suddenly felt self-conscious. This man is going to be the death of me.
"Thank You," I replied and continued. "Do you need anything from me or should I start my work?"
"A kiss" he smirked while leaning back into his chair.
"Excuse me, sir?"
"Just a morning-peck love, to start my day and yours as well." he shrugged as if it was no big deal. We are at work. Someone might see!
"I'm not sure I can do that sir, You have glass doors," I stated the obvious.
"Well, you are not allowed to leave, Simple." He twirled his pen around as if challenging me to take the risk.
I walked over to his desk, getting ready to bend over and suddenly I was pulled into his lap while he wrapped his hand tightly around my waist.
"Brandon!" I whispered yelled. "Someone might see us! Let me go!"
"No one can see us, Listen, I wanna take you on a date after work... Is that okay?" he said while running his nose alongside my jaw, leaving small kisses all the way to my neck.
