*RECAP*

Apparently, I was in my own world just a tad bit to long, because someone practically shouted my name. I looked up and my mouth dropped open in shock! No, this can't be happening. This is not happening. Sitting on the reddish brown desk, a pair forest green eyes stared back at me.

Those green eyes belong to Ethan, the guy from the elevator. He smirked at me, oh my GOD! this is happening!

CHAPTER 2

"Are you going to close that sexy mouth of yours, Rosie?"

I frowned.

Did he just call my mouth sexy? No, this is not going to happen again.

I dated my last boss. He knocked me up and then decided he didn't want the baby or me. He then had the nerve to give me the money to pay for an abortion. I completely refused, so he fired me.

I'm too smart to let that situation repeat itself.

I laughed humorously.

"You know, I find that comment very inappropriate especially since it has occurred between an employer and a not so potential anymore employee."

I smirked back at him, grabbed my things and turned towards the door. I shook my head in disbelief.

"Finally! You're hired, Rosie," he whispered with relief.

"Huh?" My eyebrow rose in confusion as I turned around with my head cocked to the side.

"You have the job."

He rose from his desk with a satisfied smile.

"You have no idea how hard it is to find someone that will work for you without trying to get in your pants." I frowned, a little confused.

He has got to be kidding me.

"Is that why you flirted with me in the elevator?" I snorted finally understanding.

He nodded and I let out a breath that I didn't even know I was holding. Some part of me was hoping that he would say no. I stared into his amazing green eyes looking for a lie, but there was only honesty.

"Glad you found what you were looking for." I started for the door once again with a smile on my face. I got the job!

Now I get to go and rub it in that loser's face downstairs.

"Your first day is tomorrow. I will email you the details. Bye, Rosie!" He called from behind me. I left his office with my head held high and kept it like that all the way downstairs and to the front desk.

With a huge satisfied smirk on my face, I stopped in front of the strawberry blonde witch and leaned on her desk casually. She looked at me, disgusted at my sight.

"What do you want?" she spat. I burst into laughter, unable to stop for a second before imitating her shrill voice.

"So it seems that your skank of a sister didn't get the job. But good news..." I paused for dramatic effect. "... I got the job, so I will be here tomorrow, seven thirty a.m. sharp, and since I'm your new boss, I'll be expecting a double latte with extra whip cream," I laughed evilly at the sight of the mask of horror on her face. I gave her a wink, turned and strutted home.

*ETHAN'S POV*

After Rosie left, I closed my eyes, trying to get a grip on my thoughts. Why was I thinking of her so soon? All I could think about was the twinkle in her eyes when she smirked and the sexy pout her red, succulent lips made. I had never thought of a girl that much since high school. Sadly, that's when I realized girls only wanted me for my money.

Ashley Carson was the high school queen bee. I was absolutely mesmerized by her beauty, but I was a nerd and I knew she would never want me. And yet one day, out of no where, she comes to sit at my lunch table. I was in complete and utter shock. I couldn't utter a proper sentence. She told me she had always liked me and asked me out on a date. Of course I accepted, and the date went amazing, so I asked her out on a couple of more. After a while, I asked her to be my girlfriend and she happily accepted. I then forgot about all my friends and became a part of her little group. I fell helplessly in love with her and she claimed to feel the same way, so I showered her with lavish and expensive gifts.

Our one year anniversary came up and Ashley began talking about having sex, which made me extremely nervous because it would be my first time, but I happily agreed to give her anything she wanted. Before we had sex, she begged me not to use a condom because she loved me and wanted it to mean something and again I complied. About a month after we did it, she told me she was pregnant. I was terrified, thought my love for her meant a lot more. I told my parents and we spoke to hers, and everyone became accustomed to the idea. When Graduation Day was near and I had a surprise proposal up my sleeve.

One day after school, I was searching all over for her, but failed to find her. So I went to the football field where she normally sat to hang out with her friends or study, and there I discovered her under the bleachers, making out with a football player. I remember my heart dropping to the pit of my stomach. All I could do was stare at them. After some time, the guy pulled back and whispered to her.

"What if our plan doesn't work out? What if he finds out the baby is mine and you are using him for the money?"

At that exact moment I blacked out. I beat the shit out of him and I ignored all her attempts to talk to me. I told my parents what happened and I finished the rest of my senior year being home schooled. I couldn't bare the embarrassment.

I didn't know why I was so fixated on Rose. I was aware of the rumors about her in the business world. From what I heard, she was nothing more than a skank who

slept her way to the top and I didn't need anyone in my life like that. Women were all the same. They only wanted the money and when it was gone so were they.

I shook my head forcefully to get rid of the wretched thoughts and concentrated on the stack of paperwork before me.
