Not even two days later, I find myself joining Scarlett on her way to The Outset HQ.

I'm very excited to get to see all of the rooms that I have been seeing on various videos for their Instagram already.

Walking down the street, I've got my arm around her shoulders, while hers rests on my lower back as we walk close together.

Asking me, Scar and I got used to be close in public places or at events. Even sometimes our small kisses feel like we never did anything else, but kissing.

I can't put my finger on what I'm currently feeling about the arrangement, but compared to the first times I really enjoy her company.

We arrive at the headquarters of The Outset and I hold the door open for Scarlett, letting her in before I follow her to the elevators.

"On a scale from one to ten, I'm excited like twelve." I admit and my eyes sparkle in anticipation, as the elevator makes its way further up the skyscraper.

Scarlett chuckles warmly and looks up at me with a heart-warming smile. "I love your excitement. But you have also no idea how excited Kate's gonna get."

"I bet I have a small clue about that already, especially after the video you've shown me of her dancing to my song." I remember and can't help but laugh.

With a bing, the elevator stops and the doors slowly open, revealing a very modern yet cozy looking floor.

Scar and I walk along it and I can't stop smiling from excitement. "This place is so much more inviting than in the clips already." I admit as I look around.

"Yes, this office is pretty much a comfort place of mine." Scarlett tells and I can see her eyes sparkle with happiness and joy as she shows me to the first room.

"Here's Kate and I's cozy office, where we make up decisions and everything else for and about The Outset. This room rarely gets shown in the videos." She explains to me and I listen very closely, my eyes wandering around the indeed cozy looking room with two desks, a couch and apart from all the shelves a few plants.

"It really looks like a working space to go motivated to." I say, when my eyes meet hers again and we both smile big at each other.

Just as Scarlett is about to speak up again, the door opens again and reveals another blonde woman, blue eyes that sparkle with excitement.

"Is that..." The woman gasps out and looks in between Scar and I, like she has seen a ghost. "Oh my God! That's you Y/n!!" She then squeals with excitement and comes up to me, at which I open my arms to.

"Yup, it's me Sherlock!" I jokingly say and chuckle, as the older blonde smiles like crazy, which also gets Scarlett chuckling.

"Oh my, oh my! Can I hug you? Oh this is rude to ask already, no? Can I still?" Kate rambles along and I just start to nod my head. The second I nod, her arms are wrapped around my body tightly.

I reciprocate the hug with a firm grasp and smile happily. "Of course you can. I don't mind people being straightforward about what they'd like to do."

"That, she is." Scarlett points out with a giggle, making Kate give her a look.

"You can't blame me, right?" Kate asks rhetorically and I just nod with a chuckle.

"Right, I can't blame you. I really can't." Scarlett sighs content as she puts her arm around my waist, while her other hand rests beneath my chest and she smiles happily.

"I knew it all along, Scar." Kate says as she gives Scarlett another look, that leaves me completely out of context at the moment.

I look at Scar questioningly and she just laughs softly, while shaking her head.
