It's Monday! My first day. I am so excited! On Saturday, I saw my office and decorated yesterday. Drago even came to help. Y'all, he looks good when he lifts things. Trust me.

After I shower, I lotion up and find some clothes to wear.

I finally decide on a red long sleeved crop top and a black skater skirt. A pair of chunky heels with gold buckles and a huge black sun hat later (oh, and a black fur vest) later, I'm ready for makeup.

I keep it really simple: brows, neutral eye makeup, winged liner (my signature), foundation, and red lipstick. That is all.
I grab my phone and put it in my black and gold clutch before I head out of the door.

I am so nervous for Mellie's first day. I brought her an iced green tea latte and wait for her in her office. A few minutes later, she walks in.

"Oh! Good morning, boss," she says happily. I smile. She eyes the latte. "Sooooo, is that latte mine or yours? Cause if it's yours, I have to figure out how I'm gonna steal it from you."

I chuckle and walk up to her, latte in hand. "It's yours, Mel," I say seductively. "Amongst other things." I wink when I see her bite her lip.

She takes the latte and walks away to her desk.

"Uhh," I clear my throat. "I think we should keep it professional."

He laughs. "Professional? I just got you Starbucks! I think that's grounds for a date, at least. Don't you think?"

I take in a deep, but shallow, breath. Y'all know what I mean. "Um, what if I don't drink the drink?"

"Now, we both know that iced green latte is one of your favorite Starbucks drinks. You'll drink it. Just one date," he smirks.

I take a sip of my drink. "I don't know."

"Come on. You know you like that latte!"

I laugh. What do I do?
