These 3 words are enough for me, just say them, say them like you mean it 

"Yes. Truly, madly and deeply. "

~~~~~~~Kelly's POV~~~~~~~~~~~

Today i'm meeting Zach so I figured I should look presentable. I decided to go with a black pencil skirt and a pink top. Simple but cute. I mean it's not like I've been standing here trying to decide what to where for the last half an hour. Nope, not all. I took a long hot shower and brushed my teeth at the same time. I know weird but why not, I mean if I can do both why waste time.

I got to the office on time and since our appointment was at 10:00 I decided to get a bit of work done.

"Where is it?" I snapped at her "I don't know I left it on your desk last night" "stop lying it's not like it has legs to run by itself, that file has a lot of documents so think, think well or I won't just fire you but also sue you for Goddamn  stealing" she was literally shaking"I swear it was there, I remember putting it there, right next to the paperwork you were suppose to sign for the charity event" she said between sobs. Pathetic. I was about to call Emma when I heard a knock, great she's here. I told her to come in and continued without glancing up "I need you to escort this young lady out of here, and I want you to tell my lawyer that there has been a new file stolen. The one she was in charge, of course. After that make sure that security is with her while she cleans up her desk" she started crying a bit louder so I finished up with her "Crying won't get you anywhere, now if you will excuse me please leave my office. Oh and if find anything pointing at you for the missing files, I will make sure that you've wished your mother kept her legs closed."I waited for Emma to take her out but nothing so I glanced up while saying "Do you need...." I stopped.Fuck. Why does this guy always show up on bad timings? "I'm sorry, I tried to stop and tell you I wasn't your secretary but you wouldn't stop talking so I figured I should let you finish." Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. This guy is going to make me a professional in cursing. "Right. Can you please leave now miss as you can see I have work to do." She was still sobbing but nodded anyway and got out. "Would you like to sit" he was avoiding eye contact "Actually we should get going, if we wanna find the architect" I nodded "OK just let me get my bag" I came back and we started heading out until he  asked something unexpected "Are you like that to all your employees? " I frowned "I guess, why?" He shrugged "I don't know, what if it wasn't her?" "Either way she lost a file, a very important file, she shouldn't have been careless" he frowned and put his hands in his pockets "people make mistakes, its our nature. Don't you? " my jaw started clenching, I was clearly annoyed about this "I'm sorry but no I don't, I take my job seriously and think twice before acting, so her mistake will cost her, her job. Now can we please move on to the next subject." He wanted to say more but decided it was best not to so he simply nodded and we went to the architect John Derry's office.

After we talked and agreed with John we went out of the building and started heading to my car. Just as we were about to enter Zack held my arm and "Can I buy you lunch?" I frowned and he rapidly continued "it's not a date or something, just two new partners getting to know each other" "I apologise but I have to do something" he smiled. Definetly not giving up so easily. It's pretty weird that he changes moods so quickly, I mean in the ride over here he was silent like he was mad at me, then in the meeting with John he was serious and now he's being sort of.... I don't know, playful I think. "I can't I have to buy a gift for Meg, for her birthday" his grin just got wider, okkkk "great, because I have no idea about her likes and dislikes so, I guess we could help each other" I raised an eyebrow "Really? and what sort of help would I need from you?" "well there are a few thing's I can think of but for now, isn't free food acceptable?" The corner of my lips were turning up a bit but I tried to hide my smile. He was so cute. Wait, what?!? did he just meant that in a.... Oh no it's probably me. I was gonna decline his offer but looking into those bright blue eyes and puppy face I just couldn't resist "Fine" I said and got in the driver seat while he got in the passenger one. I started the engine and asked "Where to?"
