at work
i sit down at my desk already pissed off. asshole grayson, mR aRlOw Had already gave me a bunch of work. and he made me deal with this idiotic new intern. who has a crazy crush on my boss. i had to show her around. "and here's your work spot. if you got any questions. use your brain first, then ask lydia, our receptionist, and she'll send you to where you need to be. your break starts at 11.30 till 12 sharp, this elevator. is for boss and me only. clear? great, let's get to work" i walk back to my office leaving selina stunned in her little box
i start rummaging through all the emails mr arlow had received the past 45 minutes i was showing the intern around, and lord it's alot
it's mostly spams on how girls shoot their shot. it's insane. i get up at 11. i plan in my own breaks. i walk to the cafeteria and prepare some coffee for melinda benjamin. or mel and benji as everyone calls them. and for myself and mr asshole. that's how me and my friends call him. mel and benji work down in human resources and i am assistant. so we don't see eachother all day. "my favorite humans i got you some coffee" i say placing down the cups and head back upstairs knowing mr arlow would have returned from his meeting.
i sigh and walk into his office unannounced, i don't care anymore. just 8 more months. i place his cup down harshly and the cookie i got him next to it. he looks me up and down and looks back at his computer. jerk. his hair perfectly pulled back. a layer of gel shining. his jaw sharp as a knife and his eyes greener than a forest in the morning sun. "stop staring. get back to work" he says. i roll my eyes. "i wasn't staring. and you got a meeting in 20 minutes with Mr Arlow" i tell him and turn my heel to walk out. as i'm about to close the door to his office he calls me back. "Ms Vienna" he starts. i roll my eyes and turn around. "yes sir?" he eyes me up and down and licks his lips. "cancel it" he tells me.
i walk back into the office. "Mr Arlow. you have canceled 6 meetings with your father and he has been calling my phone distracting me from my work, for months, maybe it would be smart to have the meeting" i tell him. grayson gets up and smirks while buttoning his suit jacket that matches perfectly with his slacks.
"fine, don't cancel it. you deal with it. i have got some business to take care off." he says and opens his door signing for me to leave. i roll my eyes and sit down in my office. finishing the documents he wanted to have by the end of tomorrow afternoon. before i start working on some files he had rudely dumped on my desk. ugly bitch. "that's a lie, he has the body of a greek god" i mutter to myself.
"Ms Vienna, where's grayson" i take a deep breath hearing the familiar voice and get up. "Mr arlow i am sorry to inform you Mr Arlow is out for business meetings. i could take a message for you" i tell him. his dad is even worse than the devil himself. no respect, no boundaries. just an arrogant jerk. he grabs my arm "tell him i expect him at the gala on sunday evening." he releases my arm from his tight grip and storms out.
