His Personal Assistant

Chapter 35

BPOV.

The last few days had been one giant lesson in avoidance.

It was like Edward and I had made some unspoken agreement to just keep everything, well – unspoken. Instead of worrying about what could have been, what is, what might

become, we worried about nothing and no one.

We spent every waking, every dreaming second together, wrapped up in a cocoon of warmth and lust and love and laughter.

Lunch on Monday was the last time Edward and I had spoken about the status of "us". I had gotten my chance to air my views then, telling him about all the special provisions I

had made so that I could avoid Jacob in London. I told him that I didn't expect him to wait for me while I was gone (something that he had vehemently disagreed with).

And I told him to forget about everything that happened on Sunday night, at, and after, the disastrous family dinner.

Though the Walking Alp (also known as Emmett) had interrupted before Edward could say his peace, I was fairly certain (judging by prior experience) that he had little or no

recollection of proposing to me. Or of the fact that I had accepted with barely any reservation, despite the unconventional manner in which he had made the offer. Instead, we

spent the last few days wrapped up in each other and our friends, keeping things light.

Of course, since Judas (also known as Emmett) had explained to my deliriously happy boyfriend that I had actively tried to seduce him, Edward had been teasing me

constantly. Things like, "baby, I think you should let me fuck you on my washing machine, considering how much you want me", or "darling, can I eat the rest of my dessert off

your chest? You might as well let me, I know how hot you are for me".

Though I had every intention of taking out my revenge on both Smugward (also known as Edward) and Gigantor (also known as Emmett), I wanted today to be a day that my

darling boy would never forget.

It was Friday; eighteen days before I was scheduled to leave for London.

It was also my last day at Cullen International Corporation.

I planned on using my remaining few hours here productively.

With so many other shitty things happening, and despite the fact that he had been acting like an arrogant ass over the seducing the boss thing, I figured Edward deserved a

treat.

So Thursday night I told Edward, considering I only had one day left in the office, and considering we always stayed later then anyone else due to his work load, that he could

pick one office related fantasy to live out with me once we were alone.

When I told Edward (who looked at me like I had just morphed into an embodiment of Christmas), I presumed he would be banging me on the photocopier, or something equally

porn related. Instead, he surprised me by giving me two very simple instructions:

1. Pretend he and I had never gotten together.

2. Actively resist him for as long as possible.

I couldn't believe out of any fantasy he could pick, any role-play, any free pass related fun, he picked a plausible fantasy that was all about me and him. Hell, if I hadn't worked
