Fall ~Grant Gustin~

Chapter 8

"Mr Gustin, I want your assignment handed no longer that the 22nd of September" Mr Davis ordered Grant.

"I won't let you down Sir" he shook his head as he played with his fingers under the table.

I could clearly see that he was nervous.

I reached over under the table and placed my hand on his fidgeting fingers, giving it a slight squeeze.

I could tell that it calmed him down a bit.

My hand remained there for the rest of the time till we were dismissed.

We walked into the lift as it took us down to the cubical room.

"It's so warm in here" I heard Grant whisper, making my laugh a little.

"So this is your cubical, make yourself at home" I grinned as I leaned against Grant's desk.

"Where's your cubical?" Grant asked.

"Right there" I pointed at the cubical on his left.

Just then the telephone on my desk started to ring.

I walked over to my cubical and took a seat as I answered the phone.

"Hello, Davis Industries. Eleanor speaking. Could I please take your name?" I spoke into the phone.

I heard Grant get up from his chair and take a seat on my desk.

"Mr Lennard, how may I help you today?"

I looked up to see Grant smiling at me.

"Sir, we won't be about to give you a check till the end of the month"

I looked at Grant to see him pulling funny faces at me, making me smile in amusement.

"Mr Lennard, I understand that you need a new ceiling for the school, but I can't offer you a check that early" I signed into the phone.

"You could maybe plan a fundraiser to pay for the ceiling" I offered.

"Okay, thank you for you call Mr Lennard. Have a good day" with that I hung up.

I looked up to see Grant looking at the picture frame I had placed on my desk.

"Who are they?" He asked pointing towards the lady and the two babies.

"My mum, me and my twin brother" I whispered with tears brimming my eyes.

"Hey are you okay?" He asked as he bent down placing his elbow on my knees.

"Yeah um, I'm fine" I whispered.

"What happened, if you don't mind me asking" he asked.

"My mum was nude red and my brother is in jail for accused murder" I murmured.

Grant nodded as he pulled me in for a tight hug.

His hugs felt so warm.

I felt something indescribable. I loved that feeling. It felt like electric jolts zapping throughout my body.

We pulled away as Sandra walked towards us.

"Who's this?" She winked at me.

"Grant Gustin" Grant put his hand out for Sandra to shake.

"Sandra Bynes" she shakes his hand.

"New here?" She asked.

Grant and Sandra spoke for a while as I completed my assignment.

Might as well finish it so I have more time helping Grant.

I printed the papers and put them all in the folder.

"Be right back" I smiled at the two who were quietly conversing about God knows what.

I walked into the lift as it took my up towards Mr Davis' office.

I was looking through the paper, checking if I have everything as I walked into Mr Davis' office.

I looked up to see a blonde haired lady sitting on the table topless while making out with Mr Davis.

"Oh my gosh, I am sorry. I forgot to knock. Sorry. I'll never walk in again. Oh gosh. I'll give these to you later" with that I ran out of the room shutting the door behind me.

I could feel my face becoming red in embarrassment.
