The CEO's Obsession

Chapter Three

Kate
I woke up to the sound of my phone ringing. Is it just me or am I the only one that finds the loud blaring of an iPhone annoying.

"Hello?" I said groggily, sounding more like I was asking a question than making a statement.

"I'm coming over in twenty minutes".

"Good morning to you too" I said to Kim.

Kim and I had grown really close since we met at the grocery store that day. I found out she was a really outgoing and bubbly person but she was also on the wild side. She had a job as the manager of a really fancy restaurant.

"Shut the fuck up".

"Hey, don't talk to me like that, I didn't do anything".

"Yeah right, you didn't call yesterday after your interview".

"Ohhh.. I'm so sorry, I was really tired an--". I didn't finish my sentence before I heard the dial tone.

'Wow, she hung up on me' I whispered to myself.

I decided to go brush my teeth and make myself presentable before she gets here. I walked into my bathroom and I take a look at the mirror and see my hair which resembled a bird's nest and my makeup from the day before smudged. I was still wearing the clothes from the interview. Wow, my mum will be so disappointed if she saw me like this.

I ran my hands through my hair in attempt to tidy it up a little and threw on a baggy shirt that reached my knees.

So I buy some men's clothes. Sue me.

I heard a knock on the door of my apartment and walked out of the bathroom to open the door. Before I got to the door the door burst open and in came my one and only best friend.

"Mama bear is home" Kim said.

"You are such a geek".

"Why thank you. Wait, you just woke up?".

"No shit Sherlock".

"Oh I'm sorry, I didn't know you were still asleep" Kim apologized but I knew she didn't mean it.

"You didn't know or you just decided to ignore that fact and disturb my sleep by calling me by six in the morning?".

"Maybe??" she said sheepishly.

"Whatever, so what brings you here this early morning".

"You didn't tell me how your interview went and you promised to call" she said looking offended.

"Oh, I'm sorry. But guess what?".

"You got the job, yeah I figured" she said still looking offended.

"So, I met my new boss and he was... Oh my gosh, he is so hot".

"Yeah I know, won't you offer me a seat". Kim has this weird rule where she doesn't sit until told to.

"Oh sorry, have a seat".

"Whatever".

"What's got your thong in a twist?" I said, as I mentally high fived myself for my smartass comment about her underwear.

"First, you're so silly but I won't deny I'm wearing a thong and secondly Callum broke up with me" she said without batting and eyelid.

I looked at her doubtfully because I knew she wanted someone to talk to because she always talked about him and she was always going on and on about their awesome relationship. They had been dating for a year and she looked like she was in love with him.
