The Secretary

Being a Secret

After that night me and Carson became official. And it was the best decision I have ever made. Even though I made him promise to keep our relationship a secret for now it was still amazing.

I didn't want everyone to know of our relationship just yet. I mean, I was his secretary still after all. I didn't want people thinking that he's only keeping me around because I'm his girlfriend. Plus, there was a more bigger reason I didn't want us to go public just yet. He was one of the most richest and powerful CEO's there was. Which meant he's on magazines. And if we go public then paparazzi will somehow find me and my picture could be everywhere. Which makes it easier for Brandon to find me. And if he finds me knowing I moved on to someone else it'll be even worse then him just finding me.

Brandon was always possessive and wouldn't let me have any sort of contact with a guy. If he found out I talked to a man he would go into a rage. And if he found me my finding out I was dating someone that wasn't him...I was scared to find out what he might do.

I walked into work today with a smile on my face. I loved coming into work now since it meant I got to see my boyfriend. And ever since we started dating people have been wondering what was going on with him. I forgot that he acts cold to everyone else but me. But now that cold man everyone saw was smiling every time he came into work. And everyone in the office was wondering what was making him so happy. Or should I say, who was making him happy.

Maybe one day I would be brave enough to come out about our relationship. But we just started dating anyways so it was too soon to come out anyways.

I walked to my desk and was greeted by a pink post it note that read, come to my office.

I wonder who this could be, I thought sarcastically. Who else would ask me to come to their office? So I set down my purse then walked to Carson's office. I knocked on the door but no one answered. I opened the door and looked around the room for him.

"Carson?" I called and almost jumped out of my skin when I felt someone's arms wrap around my waist. I knew who it was by the laughter that came out of them.

"You scare easily, darling." Carson said from behind me before starting to kiss the back of my neck.

"We're supposed to be keeping our relationship lowkey. Kissing my neck in your office is not what I call lowkey." I said but my voice failed me as it came out shaky.

"The door is closed. No one's going to find out if they can't see or hear us." He whispered against my neck.

I couldn't help but smile as I turned around and pecked his lips. "You're cute. Now, is this all you called me here for?"

Carson rolled his eyes. "Sadly, it's not. Well part of it was but the main reason was to tell you that we have to go to Italy to meet with someone. So we will be leaving tonight."

I nodded. "Italy huh? I'll make sure to be packed and ready. What time will you be picking me up?"

"At about seven." He pecked my lips before handing me a stack of papers. "And have fun with those." He smirked at me before walking to his desk and sitting down.

I let out a groan. "These are gonna take me all day." I whined and gave him my best pouty face.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Myers but I do remember you saying to treat you like any other employee." He said with that stupid smug smirk.

I rolled my eyes but that only earned me a chuckle from Carson. I walked back to my desk and just like I imagined, those papers took me the whole day to do. Carson wanted to drive me home but I was able to convince him to let me drive home by myself. If he came home with me there would be no way I would be able to do any sort of packing.

Carson said it would take two days for us to complete our business up there but insisted we stayed an extra two days for us. He said he wanted us to be a normal couple for at least two days.

I finished packing by seven and walked outside when I saw Carson's car pull up. He pecked my lips as a greeting then helped put my bag in the back. Like usual he had someone drive for him to the airport so we were able to sit close to each other.

"I'm so glad we're getting away from here. I can't look at you all day in that skirt and keep my hands to myself. You're too damn hot." He whispered and kissed my cheek.

"Well you'll have to keep your hands to yourself in front of the client." I whispered back before kissing him softly. Our kiss only lasted a little bit and just as it was starting to get heated the car stopped and our door was opened.

Carson let out a frustrated groan as I laughed and got out of the car.

"Relax. We'll have a lot of time to ourselves on this trip." I assured him as we made our way onto the airplane. I looked back at him and saw a very pouty look on his face. Sometimes I swore he was actually five.

We got onto the airplane and I was about to sit down but apparently I was too slow because I was pulled into Carson's lap instead of the chair.

"Am I not allowed to sit in my own chair?" I asked but didn't put up much of a fight.

"Nope. See you in Italy." He said before closing his eyes and somehow falling asleep just a few seconds later. I smiled and kissed his head before eventually falling asleep after him.
