i walked into the doors of the use business building and didn't even wait for the elevator. i bolted up the stairs to the floor that im one and immediately took a seat in my cubicle.
my boss, tyler, came over to my area. "connor, why are you late?"
you see, tyler isn't a very.. typical boss. he's really clingy and can get a little too personal. sometimes, he'll ask about my house or where i get my coffee and it's honestly a little creepy sometimes. so, whenever he asks me to answer a question, i try to give as little details as possible.
"sorry boss, i just ran into someone on the street."
"and who may this someone be?"
i knew it. why wouldn't he ask? sometimes, he can just be so annoying. more annoying than ricky when he gets excited about something.
"you don't know them." i answer short and quick, and make sure i get to the point right away. i really don't want to answer anymore of his 'tmi' questions. i mean, who knows? maybe he has all of my personal information that he somehow figured out locked in a secret draw in his office. i would believe it, although i don't want to.
"well, what if i want to know them. if you even know him? are you seeing them after work? maybe i can tag a long with you guys." he throws his devious little smirk at me, his eyes glaring into mine.
here's the thing about my boss, tyler oakley. he has these eyes that can literally trick you into thinking anything he says, or believe any lie he tells. it's amazing to me, honestly, how someone so internally evil can come off as so harmless to the people around him. i don't even think he realizes he's acting like that, it just happens. and that's the really weird part.
"i don't know if ill be seeing him, but if i do, ill make sure to give you a c-call." my voice stuttered at the end of my sentence. i didn't like lying, i never have. and i totally was not going to give tyler a call if i saw 'troye sivan' again.
"okay, connor. now get started!" he winked at me and flicked his leg as he walked away.
he's such a creep.
•when work is over•
i pushed my swivel chair back and stood up in my seat. it was a rough day.
i couldn't get my mind off of that boy, troye. everything about him, was just, perfect.
i barely even know him and i think im already falling for him. but, no, i can't. i do that to myself; ive always fallen in love and have been into one sided relationships because of it. i can't let that happen again, not with him. not with anyone.
i prayed that i wouldn't run into tyler, he would probably bring up troye. i wasn't planning on ever letting him even near troye; they would hit it off for sure. i don't want that. i want him; even though he deserves way better than me.
i creep out into the long hallway trying to step as quietly as possible to be as silent as i can. i sigh triumphantly as i successfully make it down the hallway without a sound. but, of course, me being me, i had to drop my pen.
now, as you probably know, dropping a pen isn't very loud. but i swear, tyler has bionic hearing or something. he can literally hear you whisper from two rooms down. i have an ongoing theory that he's a mutant that was accidentally created by his father; and now he has this weird power of crazy hearing.
almost on cue, tyler's perky little head sticks out from his office door. "connor! you weren't leaving without me, were you?" he raises his eyebrows, and gives me a look that says, "if you leave this building without me i promise you that you will be fired and ill make sure you'll never get a job again."
i slightly roll my eyes. "no, tyler. i was just heading to the bathroom before we headed out." i try to sound as believable as possible but unfortunately, im not the best liar.
"okay! ill grab my cap and we'll be on our way!"
once i pretend pee and get my stuff in order again, i meet tyler at his door. "alright! let's go see troye!"
this is going to be harder than i thought.
