The Assistant's Dilemma

Ch.21

(3rd person)

"You fucking asshole!" Courtney barges into the office causing Giovanni to snap his head towards her "what is wrong with you Giovanni!" She points at him and he stands up

"Woah woah what are you talking about?!" He starts walking over to her

"I'm just another one of your fucking assistants!?"

His eyes widened as she shouts "Courtney what are you talking about?"

"This is what you do! I should have known! Of course someone like you would do this!"
She runs her hands down her face in frustration as he gets closer to her.

"Courtney you gotta talk to me" he goes to grab her hands but she quickly pulls them away

"Do not fuckin touch me!"

"you need to relax seriously"

"ME?"

She laughs in disbelief before looking up at him as tears fill her eyes. He tilts his head "what's wrong? What happened? What did I do?"

"or maybe what have you been doing?!" Courtney says "you .... You get some new assistant, grow some type of romantic relationship with them , maybe even try to fuck them and then you're just over it? You're sick!"

"I don't know what you're talking about"

"Really? Does your ex assistant April ring a bell? Or maybe ummm Sabrina or hell even your ex fucking wife!" Courtney shouts "this is some big plan you take part in every time!"

"Listen-"

"NO , you listen to me! You just play with people's feeling, and for what? Enjoyment? A fuck buddy? Some attention? What is it?!"

"Please we can just talk about this"

"There's nothing to talk about. Don't act like you care you never did , you just wanted to fuck me? Right? Was that it? Well guess what you did! And let me guess you're almost done with me?"

"Courtney it's not like that"

"Giovanni yes it is! You talk a good game. You're telling me you care about me and I make work easy and all this bullshit that you probably told every assistant you ever had!"

"Can we please just sit and you can let me explain"

"No .... No no no" she shakes her head and begins collecting her things

"Courtney come on" he goes to grab her wrist but she moves away fast enough

"Giovanni I swear to god do not touch me , get away from me" she grabs her stuff

"You're overreacting right now" he says to her making her whip around to look at him

"I can't be here any longer"

"Really Courtney? Grow up! Act like a fuckin adult and actually talk to me!"

"You're must be out of her damn mind. You can't talk to me like that. You can't be upset" she says "this is what you're used to , don't switch shit up now"

"I'm trying to be professional and actually have a grown up conversation"

"Professional? This isn't about work, this is about how you played with my feelings knowing damn well you didn't feel the same way"

"come on , you know how I feel about you"

"Now I do! Now I know how you actually feel, you feel nothing me! You don't give a fuck about me or how I feel"

"Courtney I do care about you , I really do"

"Giovanni you're caught! Except it! You got what you wanted! You got me , I even let you fuck me! All of that and I meant nothing to you!"

"that's not true"

"We had sex, I gave myself up to you. I trusted you and you didn't even care about me"

She tries her hardest to keep the tears but it becomes to much for her.

"Courtney" his voice goes soft as well as his eyes when the girl begins to cry.

"Fuck you Giovanni, fuck you"

(Courtney)(that night)
"I feel so dumb" I sit on my couch with my face in my hands. "Why did I do that? I mean he's my boss after all"

"You can't beat yourself up Court" Angie sits next to me with her hand on my back "you couldn't have predicted this"

"I knew I should have never gotten into this , what a dumb idea?" I shake my head and look at it "how could I fall for this? My boss!"

"You couldn't have known this Court" Angelina says "you had feeling and followed your heart"

"Look what that did, he followed his dick and dumb brain"

"He fucking sucks and you don't deserve that. This also isn't your fault Courtney"

"How am I suppose to continue work? I mean she did say once he breaks up with his assistants they move to different floors"  I say "I'm just apart of some cycle of females he has played with"

"It's gonna be okay I promise, maybe you can switch job positions , I'm sure there's something else you can do"

"I can't fuckin believe this" I shake my head in disbelief. "I feel so stupid , I knew this wasn't a good idea , I did it anyways" I fall back onto the couch and sigh

"Don't beat yourself up girl. This is not your fault you gotta know that"

I prop up onto my elbows to look at her "I know but this just sucks so bad , I hate men"
