I waited impatiently outside the office until the door opened and Alex stormed out.
He grabbed my wrist, a lot tighter than I had expected and walked down the hallway to his office. I gave small smiles as I stumbled along at the stares, trying to ease them for his sake.
I don't know what I had done wrong but I was definitely in trouble for it.
He pulled me into his office and slammed the door so hard I thought the windows would shatter. What did I do?
He paced around the room and glared at me.
"What? Why are you mad?" My voice was small and quiet. I was honestly a little bit scared. Though nothing I hadn't dealt with before.
He chuckled, the corners of his mouth twitching up for a second showing his glowing white grin.
"You're kidding right?" He glared at me his grin dissolved.
"No.." I mumbled.
"You know." He rolled his eyes.
"No I honestly don't."
"Hell you don't!" Alex yelled making me flinch.
"Alex I really don't know what-"
"Your doing it on purpose." He muttered, quitting me off. His crisp blue eyes dark like a storm.
"And my name to you is Mr. Harrison." He muttered.
"Just tell me." I mumbled trying to not make eye contact. Alex walked closer until he was just a few centimetres away from me.
"When you dress like this."
He came so close his hair brushed against my cheek as he spoke in my ear.
"I'm easily distracted by you." His hot breath was on my neck sending tingles though my veins as his hands were planted on the wall on either side of my waist, boxing me in.
I was frozen either way.
"E-everyone dresses like this though."
"Not everyone looks like you." He whispered, his lips grazing my neck, making me want to faint.
"It's very inappropriate of you Mrs. Grant. And might I add quite slutty."
He glared at me backing up. The sound of almost pleasure had left his voice.
"What? There isn't anything that says I cant dress like this!"
"I'm your boss!" He yelled, making my knees go weak. He was terrifying.
"You can't single me out because I have a set of breasts!" I yelled back.
"I'm sorry you can't keep your eyes off me!" I yelled again making his cheeks flush. He didn't look happy. He pushed me against the wall. His nose was almost touching mine as he glared at my lips.
"I'm in charge of you. You do as I say."
"And I say you can't wear that shirt to work."
"Fine." He turned around with satisfaction, thinking he had put me in my place, and I pulled my shirt off. Crazy I know. He glanced back and frowned.
"What the hell are you doing?" His jaw was clenched. Does he think I haven't dealt with nasty men before?
"You told me to not wear that shirt, I'm just doing what you want."
He pulled his hands through his hair in anger.
"Your really getting on my nerves Amanda." He muttered.
Alex walked to the back of his large office where there was a small oak closet. He pulled out one of his button up dark blue collared shirt.
He glared at me and handed me the shirt. All that and he didn't check me out in my bra once? I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. Without resistance I pulled my arms through the shirt and started to button it up. I was on the second one when Alex's hands where on top of mine which where once fiddling with the button and now frozen in their place. I glanced up to be met with his perfect colourful icy eyes. Emotionlessly his glanced back down and brushed my hands away. Without speaking he buttoned each one. I watched him as he carefully pulled each plastic button through their loop, his dark eyebrows pulled together and his bottom lip chewed on in concentration.
His eyes flicked back up to mine and he froze. I sucked in a small breath and glanced away breaking the eye contact. He had only three more buttons.
Alex was probably the most handsome man I've ever met. He had gorgeous dark brown thick hair that were paired with his thick expressive eyebrows and long lashes. High cheekbones and a nice jaw. His body was -from what I could see- was perfect. His shirt slightly stretched to fit his chest and arm muscles making him look strong and even more powerful. He was wearing black dress pants with a white button up shirt and black tie, he had rolled his shirt up to his elbows. Alex was quiet tall, I'd say over six feet.
His thumb lifted my chin the slightest.
"Get to work." He muttered, his eyes locked with mine. I nodded and quickly left his office.
I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding in. I've never been like that before. Ready to fire back. I've always been cowardly.
I walked back to my desk while tucking Alex's shirt into my skirt to try and make it look any bit fashionable, to be greeted by my friends. Their eyes widened when they saw my clothing change.
"Oh my god you had sex with our boss didn't you!" Amy covered her mouth with a gasp that turned heads.
My face heated up like a tomato. How could they even think that? Okay yeah, I could see it.
"No! I definitely did not have sex with that grumpy ass boy. He dress coded me." I whispered, Jill's eyes lit up with amusement.
"Oh course he did." She grinned.
I frowned at her,
"What?"
"He A, obviously can't control himself around you, and B, doesn't want your boobs hanging out all over the place and making his company look bad."
Ouch.
"Says the one." I mumbled and started to re read our edits on the main page. I was counting down the minutes until they were gone.
"Amanda?" Jeremy frowned walking up to my desk.
"Oh my gosh Jeremy! I completely forgot about the photos. I'm so sorry. There was the meeting and then I got.. sidetracked."
"It's fine. I assumed as much, you've been very busy lately." He gave a warm forgiving smile,
"I hope I didn't ruin your plans." I said,
"Oh it's all good, I used Jill when I couldn't find you." He nodded towards Jillian who stood beside my desk with a smirk planted on her face.
"Why did you change shirts? Who's is this?" Jeremy frowned, amusement still dancing across his face.
"It's none of your business." I smiled back jokingly.
"It's Mr. Harrison's." Amy said, a smirk growing on her lips. Jeremy's eyes widened and I panicked.
"No no! Jeremy-" suddenly everyone's eyes glanced above me and i felt his hand rest on the back of my chair.
"What the hell are you all doing right now?" Alex glared at the group- especially Jeremy. God he's so attractive, every time I see him it increases.
"Do you all have your break?" He asked with obvious irritation.
"Do you?" He raised his voice. His dark eyebrows frowned.
"No." Jeremy mumbled.
"Excuse me?" Alex glared at Jeremy.
"I don't have my break." Jeremy stared back at Alex.
"Well then get back to work before I fire your lazy ass!"
Alex pinched the bridge of his nose and frowned at the three girls infront of us.
"Why the hell are you three still here?"
"Why the hell are you getting upset with us when we have nothing to do?" Jill asked.
He scoffed and I glanced up at him with a raised eyebrow- which he noticed.
"Fine. You," he pointed at Anna.
"Can read the feedback from viewers- make notes on popular criticism." Anna nodded, leaving my desk.
"You," he glanced at Amy.
"Can," Alex hesitated, and glanced around the room.
"Learn the website codes, it will help in the long run."
"And you-"
"Jillian." She interrupted him.
"What?" He frowned.
"My name. It's Jillian."
"Does it look like I have enough time to remember every single employee. Hundreds of employees work here- full time and you expect me to remember an interns name?" He glared at her.
"Maybe it would make you seem less harsh."
"Jillian." I widened my eyes at her. What the hell is she trying to do.
"Your doing coffees now. Your also taking over Mrs. Grants work." A small smirk appeared on Alex's face. Both of us girls frowned.
"Wait what?" I said glancing up at him.
"What am I going to do then?"
"You, Mrs. Grant, are going to be learning from the best." He said mentioning to himself.
I nodded,
"Okay that seems like a great idea."
"I disagree." Jill said.
"What?" Alex frowned again.
"Your obviously favouriting Amanda. And giving the scraps to us."
"Well if you want I can see if the janitors need a hand." Alex raised his brow at Jill who rolled her eyes and ushered me out of my seat so she could do my old work.
And what do I think about all this?
I just became Alex's personal b*tch is what I think.
