I sat at my desk, heavily typing away until my boss' voice rang through my ears.
"everyone, the office is going to be having dinner at la porchetta in Seaview Avenue, tonight at 6:00pm. it would be much appreciated if everyone could come! thank you!" I really didn't want to go and be bothered to socialise but the thought of free dinner was too good to pass up.
4:30pm was the time I finished work, I packed my things and didn't bid anyone goodbye and drove my way back to my apartment, took a quick shower and changed into a white button-up and rolled the sleeves up to my elbow and unbuttoned a few of the top buttons. I also wore black suit pants and added a watch and spritzed some perfume before grabbing my phone and leaving at 5:30pm.
the first thing I noticed when I walked inside was venus seated next to finn in a skin-tight red dress that fit her like a glove. I couldn't be bothered to deal with anyone's pda tonight so I just turned my head and headed for a table in the other direction. I searched around for an empty table or at least one with a spare spot but none was to be found, the only one being there was a spare seat on a table of three with venus and finn.
what are the chances?
I huffed before heading to their direction and pulling out the chair, taking a firm seat and instantly flipping out my phone to avoid any interactions.
"shawn, nice to have you here man," finn raises his whiskey glass to me.
"yeah," I took a glance at venus who gave me an annoyed glance before i raised my own glass that had already be filled with some alcoholic beverage and clinking it with finns before chugging it all down.
"foods out guys! help yourself," the boss shouts to the people.venus picks herself up the same time as I do and we both head to the trays filled with heavenly food together, unintentionally.
venus strutted infront of me with her plate infront of her hands, "why do you hate me," she asked out of the blue.
"I don't," I scoffed. venus turned and gave me a pretty deadly glare.
"that's bullshit, you don't even try to communicate with me and your just straight up rude," she frowned at me before grabbing some food.
"maybe I go to work so I can work so I can get paid, I don't go to get fired," I grunted in sass, picking up the rest of food and leaving her to head back to the table. _ au note: dean is amazing.
