Oooh, okey. This one shot has gotten a resurrection with some help from the wonderful k1nkforlove. If you haven't already, check her stories out!

As you saw, this is another chapter with the one and only Irish flower, Rose Weil.

Also, this will be the 40th released chapter of this book! How crazy is that!?

I chose to do Rose as a version when she has fully regained her confidence and dominance, she's not really shy in this one ; )

This is not related to any of the other one shots!!

Let's get into it!
_______________________________
Shit shit shit... I had overslept my alarm and was incredibly late for my work, not to mention in deep trouble with my boss, Ms. Weil. My luck with the car was brutal, red light after red light, they just never seemed to stop coming.

Not even two minutes passed between the times I checked and re-checked my phone. This is a disaster! I haven't even worked there for a month yet and I'm already screwing up, though my lace and ruffle piece seemed to make some progress in what Ms Weil thought of me.

My desperation to prove myself is extreme, and if this occurs again, I'm surely out of the game. Okay, okay, almost there, thank god for employee parking!

I run from my car, not looking back, for all I need to hear is that little 'click' to know that my car is locked. In a hurry I say 'hello' to the doorman, Oliver, who has been working there way longer than me. He smiles as he always does and swiftly opens the door as he sees that I'm in a rush.

Right, just straight through the reception, to the left and then we have the elevator, AKA the fastest way to get into my office. Maybe if I'm lucky, Ms. Weil won't notice my late arrival
(Yeah Right..)

I press the summon button quite harshly, as if the force will make it go faster, which it did not. In my head, I counted down the numbers as they appeared on the screen above. 4.. c'mon.. 3.. Can't this thing go any faster? 2... almost 1... aaaand E. Thank god.

The elevator was luckily empty as I stepped in, and I could feel myself getting more nervous as I was soon about to meet my dooooom! No, I might get away with it, maybe it's not that bad. (Again.. Yeah, right..)

With each level the elevator passed I could feel my heartbeat quicken. Why couldn't this elevator have any music or anything so that my nerves wouldn't blow me out of the roof? Simple, the Weil brand was to grand for elevator music, but oh it would help.

Okey.. breathe, it's only 24 minutes... that's not that bad, though some breakfast would help with my stomach shouting at me.

'Level 6'

Okey.. Only two more levels, we got this.. The elevator appeared to be stopping here so I quickly readjusted my jacket that I had so hastily put on this morning, thank god I had picked out an outfit ready for today. The last level was close, only two encounters left.

I closed my eyes to recollect myself while waiting for the doors to open. Once I opened them again I could hear the mechanism start. My eyes locked on the little line of air in between the two doors, but were soon locked with the one I had been dreading to run into all morning, Ms. Weil herself.

Her eyebrows had slightly risen upon seeing me here, though one side of her lips curved slightly upwards into a side smirk. She walked into the elevator and looked at the already pressed button, then back at me.

"Fancy seeing you here, any business downstairs?"

She knew, of course she knew. I just had to be honest, otherwise I'd just make it worse for myself.
