Tempted By My Boss{Complete}

Chapter 25~Like it never happened

She slowly opens her eyes and there is a bit of sun that is streaming in, even on weekends it was hard to enjoy a full hour of sleep. She looks at her ceiling for a couple of minutes, she had moved back to into her apartment as they were no more threats. And living with Matt was a bit hard, he was always inquisitive ever since she had gotten back from France, as she remembers their previous conversation that nearly turned into a fight.

"Hailey, what is it that happened in France that you don't want to tell me about?"

"Matt I already told you the details that happened there, I don't know what more you want me to tell you."

"You damn well know that you aren't telling me the whole truth."

"What other truth could there be? I don't know what more you want me to say."

"Hailey you have been acting differently and you have been preoccupied."

"I told you that it is work."

"Stop lying to me! What did Valerian do to you? Or do I have to go ask him myself?"

"Don't you dare Matt, it is none of your business what he and I do, He is my boss and that is all that there is to it. So drop it and whilst we at it I'm moving back to my apartment."

"Look Hails I don't want to fight, I'm just concerned about you."

"I need my own space, Matt."
She is drawn out of her thoughts as her phone beeps, she quickly checks it and sees it's just a spam message.

She lays back, things just seem to get more and more complicated. Valerian was another issue that had to deal with when she saw him at work.

She remembered the morning after, she had woken up and showered. She took her luggage and had waited for him in the car where she fell asleep. She had slept half of the journey back and the half of the time she had pretended to have been asleep.

She spent half the day laying in bed, then she finally decided to get up and shower.

Monday morning came, and she went to her work station, where she hid the whole day. As soon as the time to go home hit, she decided to pack her bag and head out. "Where are you planning on leaving without seeing me?"

She looks up and sees Valerian by the door.

Her heart starts beating wildly.

"Is there anything you need sir?"
"You," he responds.

She continues to clear her desk without looking at him.

"Talk to me, Hailey."

"Is there work that you need to be done sir?"

"I want to talk about what happened in France." as he rakes his hand through his hair.

"Is there a meeting or business proposal that happened that you want me to look into, Sir?"

"STOP IT HAILEY FOR FUCKS SAKE, YOU KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT."

"No, I don't Sir, if you have nothing for me to do then I will take this as my cue to leave."

He turns, and he walks out slamming the door, she sighs as he leaves. She had to keep things professional if people found out that she had sex with the boss they would automatically assume that is how she got the job, she wasn't going to compromise her work. The other staff was finally leaving her alone and she didn't want to stir up drama again.

The week was going by slowly, it was only Wednesday, and she was doing a fine job in ignoring Valerian. Yet sometimes she would zone out and remember that one night in Paris, how it felt to be in his arms. She would also start heating up a bit and then come back to her senses.

If she had to act as if nothing happened she couldn't be daydreaming about him, she had to get him out of her mind entirely.

Clara barges into where she is working "Sir wants to see you in his office now."

She gets up and walks to his door, she knocks.

"Come in."
She walks in timidly to see him standing by the window facing outside.

"You called for me Sir."

He turns around and he gazes at her. She looks at the floor.

"Just tell me why you're doing this Hailey?"
"Doing what Sir?"

"Stop bullshitting me, you know what! Why are you avoiding me and why are you acting as if nothing happened?"

She doesn't say anything.

He walks up to her and he cups her neck and tilts her head upwards. "what did I do so wrong Hailey?"

She tries to avert his gaze. "Look at me."

She looks at him tentatively. "I want you so much Hailey and in so many ways."

"In what ways do you want me to help you, sir? So that I can make your job much easier."

"You know I'm not talking about that, why don't you want to talk about the night we."

"If this does not work related then may I please leave sir?"

"Why are you doing this?"

"Doing what sir?"

"You may leave." As he lets go of her.

With that, she turns and leaves his office. Why did he want to talk about that night? She knew that he was her first but to him, she was probably his millionth girl. Hailey felt sad at the thought that she was just one of his other girls. That this didn't mean as much to him and it did for her.

She went to her office and when it was time to go home, she went and changed into her night shift uniform.

When she got to her apartment, she found Valerian waiting for her.

He leans off the door, "I have been waiting for you."

"For what sir? Work hours are done, and you shouldn't be here."

"I can't help myself, Hailey, please hear me out."

She looks at him, waiting for him to go on.

"Are you angry with me about what happened that night?"

"No, and I don't want to talk about it!"

"Why?"
"Sir, that's none of your concern"

"Dammit Hailey, I know that I am your boss and you don't have to emphasize it all the time."
"That's what you are, my boss and nothing more so if you don't mind I would like to go and rest. I have had a long day."

"I want us to go back to normal Hailey."
"But we are sir, as it should be. You as the boss and me as your worker."
"Don't do this Hailey."
"Are you done, Sir?"

"I will leave." as she watched him walk away.
