The Assistant's Dilemma

Ch.19

(Next morning) (Courtney)

I wake up not in my bed and not even in my house. Instead I'm on the leather couch that is in Giovanni's office. I slowly sit up and stretch to look around. There's no sign of him anyway.

I have nothing on but one of his suit jackets. I don't even know where my phone is. I stand up holding the jacket shut as the office door opens. I gasp and tightly hold the coat closed.

"Oh it's you" he closes the door.

"Don't seem so sad"

"I didn't mean it like that , I was worried it was someone else and I'm kinda naked"

He chuckles and walks up to me. "The only people allowed in here without permission are me and you. No one was coming in here" He grabs my hands before planting a sweet kiss on my lips. "Last night was amazing"

"I agree"

He puts his hand under the jacket to grab my ass. "Still hurt?" He smiles

"just a little bit" he starts rubbing my ass as I put my arms over his neck. "What time is it?"

"10:30" he answers

My eyes widened as I remember it's Monday morning. "How am I supposed to leave the building with no clothes?" I break apart from him

"Put your dress on"

"I can't do that , people will know I never left the building and they'll start thinking we fucked"

"Well we did"

"That's not the point!"

"It's okay . We can just pretend you called off today and you can leave after everyone else does"

I sigh "okay yeah that's fine"

"Which has me thinking . I wanted to tell you yesterday but with the dinner I didn't want to put too much on you" he makes his way do his chair
"Come here"

I walk over to him and he seats me on his lap.
"What's this" I ask him as he type on his laptop

"Remember that paper you wrote for me?"

"For the company downstairs?" He nods in response before smiling at me.

"They loved it and I ended up telling them that you wrote it"

"Really? Why?"

"Well because they wanted the person that wrote the paper to write them an article" he tells me "I wasn't gonna lie or even attempted to write it"
I giggle at him "I think you'll be great though"

"The article is on?"

"That I'm not sure about but you have a meeting with them in the morning and you'll get all the details"

"Well I wasn't expecting this , kinda nervous"

"Don't be. maybe you'll even get a writers job for them" he smirks

"I know you're the big boss and all but don't pull any strings to try and get me into a job"

"I'm not . I just like to help the people I care about"

"I appreciate it but if I'm gonna get a job like this I want it to be because I'm good at it and they actually want me"

"You are good at it . Thats why they want you for the article . "You Trust me"

"Sure fine" I shrug.

He grabs the back of my neck to bring me to his lips "how about with a little less sass" he says inches away from my lips "you trust me?"
