OVERWORKED

The Transfer

Michaels POV
My long argument with corporate did nothing. Well I guess they're just going to have her move 2 hours away at another building, which is somewhat better. Dating the manager, on the low is unfortunately breaking the code of conduct. Of course Bridget is the reason everyone in the office knows, and corporate. I don't give a fuck about the people in the office knowing. I am still their manager.

They threatened to make it harder for (Y/n) to get a job which I'm pretty sure they can't do, but I don't want to risk it for her. She too intelligent and I don't want to hold her back. I just have to hope we will still communicate with each other.

(Y/n)'s POV

I leave in 1 day. Most of Corporate helped me move over to a closer building. I don't understand why it was that serious. People just don't want to see me be great. I sign while rolling my eyes. Before I pack my stuff, I have one idea still in mind. I made a few calls towards corporate and the building they were going to have me transferred to. All of this felt too forced. Someone was behind me moving and needed me to do it quickly. They were so desperate for me to change buildings as if it benefited them, which anything that included me benefits them...obviously.

After contacting the higher up, I scheduled a meeting with a guy named Danny Schmitz. I didn't want Micheal to know about any of this until I had it confirmed and handled. I also didn't was him losing his shit.

***************

We met up at a small office building that the company owns.

"Take a seat." Danny smiles at me, after shaking my hand.

I shuffle my phone to stop buzzing in work pants.

"Your coming to talk to me about the transfer?" Danny questioned, relaxing himself in his seat. The office smelt like mint, and it's very bland. I don't think he comes here often I assume.

"I don't understand why switching to another building 2 hours away is necessary, why not just fire me?" I respond.

"Well we were giving you the benefit of the doubt for breaking the code of conduct. We assumed it was better than finding another job, plus your intelligent." He replied, his eyes staring right into my soul.

"I'm not switching, so your going to just have to fire me. You also can't threaten me, and tell me you're going to be harder for me to get another job." My voice stays stern, but calm. I cross my legs after i notice his eyes getting distracted at my body.

"I dont believe I threatened you, but it would just be on your record. That's how things work. I could possibly make accommodations, if your relationship with Michael does end." He smirks.

Ew no fuck you.

"No."

"Excuse me?" He looks confused, then proceeds to stand up.

"You heard me..." I stay neutral.

"I see why Michael likes you...." His grin widens as he walks closer to me.

I'll admit, he is somewhat attractive, but his personality pisses me off. Not anywhere close to
Michaels looks. I give him a disgusted look, due to his comment.

"So...are you guys dating?" He leans agains his desk.

"That is none of you business."

"Well it is considering Im the one who transferring you." Danny's demeanor completely changes.

"You know...I would be nice if I get a little something out of it." He steps closer.

Feel buzzing coming from my phone and glance at it.
*25 missed calls from Michael🤍*
*10 messages from Michael🤍*

Shit
That was from 10 mins ago, he is definitely going to be crazy.

"Thanks for the offer...but no." I say sarcastically standing up.

"I wasn't quite giving you a choice actually...I will make things a lot harder for you. If you want to fuck your manager so badly, maybe have some fun with your new one from now on." A devilish smirk erupts on his face.

"I don't know who the fuck you think you are...but you are not my manager." My body moves back as he grabs my wrist.

Danny pins me up against the wall and his body gets closer to mine.

"Get the fuck off me." I fight him back.

"Since you wanna be such a fucking slut, show me how good you can be." He inches his lips toward my neck and kick him in the groin.

My phone lets out a beep as if it just finished recording something. He didn't hear it over all his groaning.

"Shit shit-"

I give him another kick but in the leg instead, making him collapse on the floor.

I hear footsteps coming inside the building, and I begin to speed walk towards the door and completely run into Michael.

"Oh-" I analyze his face and I just feel the anger radiating from him.

"Are you okay?!" He tried to look behind me after hearing the groans from Danny.

"Yeah...he was being a fucking pervert...." I say while Michael pulls me out of the building, "How did you find me anyway?" I ask.

"Why didn't you tell me you were going to have a meeting with him. Also...you shared your location with me and never turned it off." Michael looked at me trying to contain his anger.

"I'm sorry...I was just trying to fix everything, I was trying to see If there was another way."

He calms himself down and pulls me in for a hug. "(Y/n)...just please don't do that again without telling me. You had me worried when you weren't returning any of my call or texts."

"I'm sorry..." I repeat softly into his shoulder.

We then let go, and I pull out my phone to see a notification of me saving a recording.

Uh what

I see a recording of everything Danny said to me. I begin to smile until Michael looks at me.

"What happened?" He looks down at my phone.

So I feel a little stupid I didn't even think to do this before but I'm glad I accidentally did.

"It's a recording of what he said to me."

"Okay, let's go in the car, we will see what to do with that in a second. If I stay here too much longer I'm going to go back in there a beat his ass." We both head into the car, driving back to his place.
