Leigh
I went to the office today. Brahms keeps on bugging me about my relationship with Jimmy.
"You called for me?" Derek opened the door. "Yeah. Jimmy wants you to be his secretary." He stared at the floor for a minute. "Is there something wrong?" He shook his head no. "I'll take an off tomorrow, to apply at 30 Rock." I gave him two thumbs up. "You got this!" I stood and patted his back. He nodded and left my office. What's wrong with Derek?
"Leigh Pixton!" I don't really feel his charisma right now. He's annoying right now, really. "Matthew, what brings you here?" I see that he brought a friend. "This is a new employee. Here's Carl." I shook his hand. "Nice meeting you." He nodded.
"So, when can we meet your boyfriend?" I really was expecting that question. "He's busy you know." He cancelled the hiatus this week so I guess he's here in the city. "That's fine. Just give him a call." Okay.
I reached for my phone in my pocket and dialed Jimmy's number. After a few rings, he picked up. "Hello?"
"Hi honey! Maybe you could pick me up here?"
"Sorry. I think you got the wrong number." He hung up. Oh, that man.
"He's busy you know." They shrugged. I called him again. "Hey honey! It's me Leigh Pixton!"
"What do you need from me? I'm in a meeting." He sighed.
"My friends want to see you. Maybe you can drop by here?"
"No." He hung up again. I turned to face these two fuckers who was listening to the convo. "He can't do it."
"I bet your relationship is fake." Carl said. "No. It's not! We love each other!" He gave me a face that says "Really?"
"I'll get going." I said as I reached for my backpack. I quickly left my office and rushed to the elevator. "Wait!" I saw an arm reach to close the elevator. "Pixton, we'll go with you downstairs." I remained silent when they got in.
After a few minutes of them murmurring to each other, it's time to go home. "I guess I'll see you tomorrow." Matthew snapped at me. Wow, bitch. "How would I believe that Jimmy Fallon is your boyfriend? Liar!" Right now, I don't know what to answer. How? I don't know. He is not my boyfriend, I don't even know him for a long time! "Go call him right now. Make him pick you up." This bitch is eager. I reached for my phone and dialed Jimmy's number.
"No need, Leigh Pixton. Are you looking for me?" I turned to look at the back and saw Jimmy, still wearing his suit and tie. "Why are you here?" I mouthed. I looked again at Matthew and Carl and saw their jaws dropping. What a blessing.
"We'll get going. It's nice to see you two." Jimmy smiled and the two were just standing still.
Jimmy wrapped his arm on me and he ushered me to the car. I looked at the back and the two were still standing at the same place they were. "What makes you pick me up? I'm about to drive my car!" He crosses his arms. "You should thank me for doing that." He said with a straight face. "You don't have to do it! I thought you were busy."
"I'm not an idiot to let them smell something fishy." He yellingly whispered. "Don't shout, Merlin doesn't know." Oh. "Why won't you let him know?" I whispered back.
Some day, when I'm awfully low,
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight.Jimmy and I looked at him. "You can now talk. I was thinking that you can't talk because I'm here." Jimmy shook his head no. "Turn it off, Merlin. There's no need." Merlin turned off the radio. Now, the tension is heating up between me and Jimmy.
"Jimmy." I called him. "What?" He said looking at the window, watching the ride home. "Derek said he would be coming tomorrow with his resume." He nodded. "Tell him, I'm ready to hire him. He just needs to resign and he gets the job at my office." I just simply nodded and returned watching the cars pass by.
I looked at the rear view mirror and saw that there was a car following us. "Why? What are you looking at the rear view?" Jimmy asked. "My colleagues are following us." Jimmy tapped Merlin. "Merlin, turn right at the next intersection." Merlin quickly turned and I fell to Jimmy's side. "Get yourself off me! Turn left." Now, Jimmy fell on my side. "Get yourself off me!" I said imitating him. He rolled my eyes at me and he buckled his seatbelt. "Turn left and go to the hotel I said earlier." Hotel? What?
We lost the tail and Merlin parked in the hotel. I don't know what to do. I think Jimmy is serious about this relationship. "Please don't bring me here!" We entered the elevato and hw clicked 10.
As we gpt out, he held my hand and led me to a room. "I'm still a virgin! Do not do this, Jimmy!" He left me alone in the room. I broke down crying on the floor.
If my Dad knew about this, he'll surely beat out Jimmy's ass. "Jimmy! I don't want to be pregnant!" I heard people laughing at the other of the door. "Pixton. I'm here meeting with my staff. Can you please tone it down? And, what are you saying you're virgin? I don't care, because I'm not taking it. He glanced and closed the door.
Now, I'm breaking down because of shame.
