CHAPTER 4

It was the last day of the week, and I was really glad. Being Xavier's assistant wasn't an easy task, especially with the paps and his mood swings. They are the worst. I spent most of my break time with Damon, and a new friend I met, Becky. She's quite smallish, but really funny. Xavier had been a little outgoing this week, which was good. Damon, Becky and I were all sitting in my office as we ate lunch and chatted.

"I heard there will be no annual charity event this year" Becky announced.

"What's that?" I asked.

"Oh, it's this thing, like a party, where donations are made, and Xavier and his team ships off the items to orphanages." Damon replied.

"That's sweet of him." they both turned to look at me.

"Come on. Now I can't compliment him?" I asked.

"You seem to be fond of Xavier, Mia." Damon teased.

"Well, I am supposed to. I'm his PA." I replied.

"You know what we are talking about" Damon said in a teasing tone.

"Oh please, for Christ sake. He's a player.And so not my type."

"Well, he's really gentle with you as compared to everyone, and he asks about you every now and then so yeah, you two are even" Becky said, which took me by surprise.

"He does?"

"Yep. Tuesday when you arrived late, he said he wants his coffee made by you, and nobody else. He even fired Sasha for not preparing coffee as good as you" Damon said. Now I was angry. You don't just do that. I put my food down. What if Sasha was in a situation like mine?

"He doesn't get to do that." I said angrily.

"He's the boss, he actually gets to" Damon replied.

"Tell him that and he will fire you too"Becky said.

Just on cue, Xavier opened the door, once again not knocking. He stared at us for a moment, till his gaze landed on Damon who was sitting in my seat, as I sat with Becky on the couch. His lips drew into a tight line and he turned to me.

"Can I speak to you?" he asked.

"Yeah sure "I replied as I got up and approached him.

"In private?" he said, looking at Becky and Damon. They both got up and left the room.

He waited for them to go out, then he shut the door.

He calmed down a little, and looked at me from head to toe and smirked. I'm quite sure he's imagining me naked. Typical Xavier.

"You look beautiful today by the way. Congrats, you have shoes on" he said playfully. A side of him I was still getting used to.

"Ouch "I said sarcastically with a smile.

"By the way, we have a meeting to attend tomorrow in the evening. Dress beautifully, as usual, because this is one of those meetings that I can not afford to leave without making a good deal."

My cheeks flushed red, and I bent my head down in embarrassment. He raised my head up with his index finger, which made me blush the more.

"You look really beautiful when you blush because of me"

Without my knowledge, his head was oh so close to mine, I could feel hi breath on my lips, as well as his gaze.I'd fantasized about this moment, and now that it was here, I was mesmerized by his eyes. I pulled back at the sound of a knock on my door. It was Becky.I stiffled a curse.She looked from me to Xavier, then to me again, then she cleared her throat.
