Living Next to the Boss

Chapter 5: Deal

Why can't guys like this exist in my life? 😭😭😭

          I finished chapter four if I wasn't finished when you read it.

Btw the way I'm structuring the workplace like how they have teams and team leaders and such is coming from my dad's IT structuring. So sorry if this is incorrect in journalism.

After I've done most of my research, I decide to call it quits for today. Nathan's been waiting in his office sitting on his phone until I finished. I think it's almost eight o' clock. It's definitely been more than eight hours which is all I get paid for. I'm going to have to talk to him about that, too.

          I knock on the window of his office and he jumps up like he couldn't wait to get out of here.

          "How do you sit there for so long? You're working way more than you should be." He looks at me skeptically.

          "I actually wanted to talk to you about that. Mr. Waldorf never paid me for all the hours I put in and I was wondering if you could put in my hours so I would actually get paid.

"He really did thy to you? I'll make sure you get paid. Don't worry." He gives me that smile again and I force myself to ignore the fluttering at the bottom of my stomach. "Come on, we can talk more in the car," he tells me, placing his hand at the small of my back to guide me. Sparks shoot out from where he touches me making me wonder would it would feel like if there wasn't a layer of clothing between me and his hand.

I walk a little faster making him drop his hand. I need to distance myself from him as much as I can. Right now, my job is my main priority. I don't want a stupid relationship with my boss to ruin my career.

          "This is your car!!" I stare incredulously at the beauty in front of me. "You have a fucking Bugatti Chiron?!?" I struggle to breathe. "You do know that this is, like, the fastest car in the world, right?!?"

          He looks at me in shock.

          "What? A girl can't know her cars?"

          "No, it's just not many girls get that excited over it. They mostly think it's just an expensive car so it must mean I have money. This baby's gotten me a lot of ladies." He chuckles to himself after that last part and runs a few fingers over the hood of the car.

          "I've wanted a Chiron ever since it came out!"

          "Would you like to drive it?"

          "What?!? Really!? You would let me drive it?"

          "I mean if you know cars, you probably know how to drive them right?"

          "What if I wreck it?"

          "I trust that you won't," he says, dangling the keys from his finger.

          I snatch them from his hand and gleefully jump in. I probably look like a maniac but I don't care. The car is so beautiful I wish I could just live in it. I mean it doesn't compare to an Aventador S. Driving that car would be orgasmic. But you can't really compare the two with how different they are. Nathan hops into the passenger seat and looks at me, smiling to himself.
