The CEO's Contract (gojo x oc)

Chapter 16

Satoru was acting weird.

The next morning, Kenjiro had woken up to breakfast in bed. There was an unsweetened coffee on the tray on the bedside table, homemade french toast and some sliced fruits.

The man himself was also no where to be seen, his side of the bed already made and tidied up as if he was never there. Rin's work clothes were also taken out of the closet, ironed and folded perfectly for him at the foot of the bed along with a plain black tie.

Not thinking much of it, he had walked down after getting dressed, greeted Suguru who was hungover on the couch and tried to find his boss so that they could get to work.

His boss, which was acting oddly gentleman like had surprised him by already being down at the lobby, holding onto his keys with no driver in sight.

Satoru drove the two of them to work that day.

"Edit this part out, the green is unpolished and way too bright. We don't want to take the focus away from the main product." Kenjiro advised as Maki quickly wrote down his words onto her small notepad. He stared at her, slightly amused.

"You know you could also go to your supervisor for this."

Maki briefly glanced up at him as if he had lost his mind.

"You and I both know he has the reasoning and temper of a child. I am surprised he even got a place at the company."

Kenjiro shrugged, looking back at his laptop as a new notification popped up on his mail. "The Zenin sent him, there's nothing we could do about that."

"The Zenin sent me."

"Technically, you ran from them all on your own."

Maki huffed, a small smile on her face as she straightened, gathering the things in which she had dumped onto his desk in one place. "So, you and the boss? How's that going?"

Rin held in a sigh from escaping his lips, he could tell that the question had been bouncing on the edge of her tongue ever since their kiss had aired on the news though now, perhaps it was time he started feeding crumbs to the public.

"He's sweet." Kenjiro answered simply, making Maki's eyebrows shoot upwards to her hairline.

"Sweet?"

He thought back to their time together. It has been two months ever since they had gotten together and if he was being honest, Satoru was surprisingly being loyal. Never once had he stepped foot into a bar, nor has he secretly brought anyone home or sneak out of the house under Suguru's radar.

"Yes, sweet. As surprisingly as that may be, I am pretty much getting spoiled on a daily basis."

Maki's mouth formed an 'O' as she nodded slowly, trying to imagine the notorious boss acting like an actual gentleman.

"You know at first I thought it was some sort of contract."

Kenjiro almost choked on air. His co worker, oblivious to the fact that she had hit the nail on its head went on as she scooped her belongings back into her arms.

"Because there was no way you'd actually go out with him." She continued. "Not with all those years of you avoiding his clear advances."

Rin didn't meet her eyes, wary that his co worker could catch onto his schemes after all these years of working side by side.

"He grew on me."

There was a short pause in which he could feel Maki's stare at the side of his head. Acting oblivious, Kenjiro clicked on the new unopened email, starting to type away.
