I'm lying on the soft bed in my hotel suite staring at the ceiling.
His face was so close to mine, he was biting his lip while looking at mine. The way he looks at me makes me tingle, as if a river is flowing thru my body.I can feel my face heat up, he smiled at me before we went our separate ways. What does this mean? Ugh I need girl talk. I reach for my phone and text Michelle.
Omg I need help SOS - A
With? - M
I don't know - A
Well that's helpful. Ring me -M
She picks up after the 2nd ring
"What bitch I'm hung over and your brothers giving me shit again. What do you want?"
"I think he likes me but I don't know and I think I like him but I'm confused and he's also my boss an-" I whisper
She cuts me off
"Okay hang on a minute your rambling is not good for my brain"
After a few seconds....
"So tell me everything, don't leave out any details and start from when you started to discover these feelings! Okay go"
I tell her everything in one breath
"Okay. Calm down, do you know what its called?"
"No, what what's called?"
"Hon its called flirting! He is flirting with you which means he must have some interest in you"
"Oh my gosh, what do I do?"
"I'll tell ya my plan boo but you have to go thru with it. Okay?"
"Okay I hear ya"

So Michelle told me what she wants me to do tomorrow especially since I will be at the meeting with important clients and to also let her know how it goes so she can plan the next stage.
Step one: I go down stairs and ask the lady at the desk to point me in the direction to town so I can shop for my outfit. Michelle has a strict list of what to get.
After almost 3 hours I make it back to my room and put my things away, I immediately grab my phone and dial a number
"Hello?"
"Michelle... I..I did it" I whisper
"You got the stuff? Like everything on that list I told you to write down?"
"Yes I got everything I swear"
"Good girl. Now let me tell you what you will be doing tomorrow"
*
I couldn't believe what she wanted me to do. I rejected her plan straight away but she threaten to come to Italy and do horrible things to me in front of a huge crowd.
One thing I will not do is cake my face in tones of makeup! No thank you

I wake up the next morning with an extra kick of determination, rolling out of bed I jump in the shower.
I make my way into my room as my phone goes off
Hey, I'm going in early to check on everything, a car will pick you up and bring you to me at 8 ;-) - W
For some reason I blush at his stupid text. I reply with a simple okay and smiley face.
My phone goes off again only this times its Michelle and she wants to video call.
"Hello?" I whisper
"Hey slut" Michelle says and I can't hear faint noises of laughter in the background
"Is tha-"
"Hi New Zealand" Megan says and Lucy just waves
"Hi ladies"
"So down to business, show us what you got!" She beams
"I..I..but I've never worn a lady suit before"
They crack up laughing
"Lady suit.. girl its just a suit and besides its professional and he will be shocked, I swear he will turn caveman now stop complaining and hurry up. I wanna see my master piece"
I pull a face and put on my new suit, I decided to go for simple yet elegant
The girls gasp in awe"If he don't want you after seeing you like this then come back and I will have you" Lucy says with her mouth still wide open
"I'm so proud of you. Now go or you'll be late! Ring us after"
Forgot to say... knock em dead - M
I grab my things and rush down to the lobby
I'm ready
