chapter 9

"so i was thinking," niall starts. "it's been two months since you started this internship thing and although you came late a couple of times and even forgot my files before i went meeting, i still like you. hence, you're officially my assistant." he finishes.

my eyes went wide and i can't believe that i got this job after waking up in the morning everyday just to do job mostly from harry instead of niall! i even got yelled two days ago from harry because i accidentally ripped his folder on a machine! of course, i had to be up all night to re-type and printed all of those "those worths more than your fucking college institution, scarlette!" papers so he could do the postponed meeting the next day.

"so...? do you not want the job anymore?" niall asks, breaking my thoughts.

"n- no! it's just, it's really unbelievable," i gawk, "thank you so much for the chance, mr. horan!" i smile at him widely.

"you're welcome." he smiles back at me. "now back to work, and don't forget to come to our meeting!" he reminds me. i dismiss myself and exit the room.

seriously, being niall's assistant is actually the best job in the world. he takes so many thing easily and done it at the same time. he doesn't accept a lot of people invitation for doing business. he only works with the big one so they both can work more professional without so much ruckus. and me, i just have to take a few phone calls and arrange his meeting.

at 3 o'clock, i went to the top floor to join the meeting. only a few people come including harry. we are here to talk about expanding the hotel and make another brench. well, them. i just sit in here to help niall explain a couple of things such as the money that we're going to need and the architect that niall has chosen.

after the meeting has done, i gather all the papers on the table and turn off the ohp. i call one of the bell boy to clean the table and get myself out of the room so i can get back to my office to take a couple of things then go home. i have a rendezvous with my friends today to have some drinks since i didn't talk with them so much because of the amount of works lately from harry.

"scarlette," harry says, once i step out from the meeting room.

"yes, mr. styles?" i smile. i'm too happy since niall told me that i get the job.

"heard you got accepted?"

"yes," i grin. "you need anything, sir?"

"wanna grab some dinner?" he asks with a fucking straight face while i got confused with his offer.

"i, i have an appointment with my friends, sir, sorry." i answer.

"when?"

"tonight."

"good. tomorrow at seven. i will be waiting inside my office." he says sharply before leaving.

"he's like, scarlette this, scarlette that! and he's not even my boss!" i protest to my friends while holding a cigarette on my fingers and another shot of chivas.

"but he's hot, right?" my friend, ashley asks.

"he's a fucking eleven from one to ten!" i shout. the music is really loud in here and my head is getting dizzy by the lights. "he has the most beautiful jawline and you should see his friends! they're as hot as him! except for louis, he's a bugger." i swallow the liquor.

"don't you remember?! he's the guy i was telling you back in high school!" kyle screams to me. kyle is gay and always has a little thing towards successful guys around our age such as harry.

"he is? now i got the job and got to see him everyday!" i smile to him feeling giddy, taking another shot.

"fuck you!" he laughs and i giggle.
