I was sitting on the plush leather couch using this bloody tablet to go through more emails and then re organising Flynn's schedule for the next week while he went to the conference room to sort out some huge conflict between two co workers, apparently one of them slept with the others wife, and yes a massive punching fight started up in one of the guys office, a chair had been thrown threw a window, shattering it everywhere and I was also left to organise someone to replace it and write up written warning, Flynn had a strict policy on fights at work.

I was still working or well trying to when Flynn busted through the door so fast it sent the door flying backwards and the handle pushed through the wall, great now I needed to replace that as well.

“John” he breathed out sinking down to his knees in front of me, he took the tablet out of my hands placing it aside next to me on the couch, he was breathing heavily by the second and looking like he had just saw a ghost.

“Flynn take a deep breath” I said calmly “you look like you're about to have a heart attack”

He took a deep breath but when he went to speak he couldn't get the words out, so I started panicking, he was really scaring me and he never scares me, all I could do was think the worst, what if John knows I'm the one who filed against him, he was going to come after me and hurt me or even worse he's going to hurt Flynn, and then he would know about Evan and I so then he would try and hurt him too.

“John's lawyer just called” he blurted out loudly but that just made me feel worse than ever, that was also the last thing I heard right before I covered my mouth and hurled up my breakfast.

Flynn didn’t say anything his facial expression was enough to tell me he was not impressed with me throwing up my cornflakes and milky coffee all over his freshly dry cleaned shirt and all over myself, I on the other hand burst into full blown hysterical tears from that being the single most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to me in my entire life, even worse when I slipped on my ass in a room filled with people at a work dinner.

“well fuck I didn’t expect that to happen” he burst out laughing as he stood up closing the office door and locking it, he stripped off out of his jacket and shirt throwing the shirt into the bin then opened up a large cupboard behind me pulling out a new clean crisp white shirt, I looked down at myself and wondered what the hell I was going to wear.

I wiped my tears, as Flynn came back next to me “don't cry I shouldn't of panicked you, let me get someone to go grab you another dress” he whispered handing me a water bottle and a towel to wipe the mess off my dress.

He called the front desk and sent someone to pick me up a new dress, an exact same one from the shop down the mall where we brought this one from, when I stood in the his office practically naked to put the new dress on his expression changed and he looked up from his computer “your not pregnant are you?” he asked in a more serious tone, leaning forward slightly on his elbows.

I shrugged looking down at my stomach, I hadn't had a period but I knew I wasn't due yet “I don’t know Flynn” I sniffled wiping my eyes before I pulled the dress over my head.

“well that was quite convincing Em, just tell me when you get your period or if you don't so I can start looking for a bigger place” he laughed lightly leaning back in his chair and throwing his arms up letting out a loud yawn “are you ok to talk about John now?” he asked quietly.

I held my hand up as I took a mouthful of water and swirling it around my mouth before spitting it out in the empty coffee mug that was on his desk, nothing worse than an acid taste in my mouth.

“I'm really sorry Flynn, I didn’t mean to throw up over you, I'm so embarrassed I did something like that” I couldn't even make eye contact with him.
