Scarlett's POV:
Ever felt something bad's gonna happen, well that's me today. I have a feeling that today's going to be a total disaster. Nonetheless, I got up did my morning routine, and got out of the shower. So here comes the hardest part of my life.
"So, out of all the things happened in your life you think that this is the hardest part?".
Hell yeah! It's so awful to pick an outfit by myself. It's been a month now that I've learned to choose a dress by myself. But, I think I've been doing great till now.
All thanks to me.
"And me".
What did you do?
"I stayed silent".
Right, thanks.
"You owe me for that".
I just rolled my eyes and started looking for a dress in my closet.
Finally, I'm able to pick a blue pencil skirt that ends at my knees and hugs my body perfectly and a white tank top. I completed my look with a blazer. I applied a little makeup and put on my heels.
"You don't look bad".
I know cause I'm always beautiful.
"Keep on dreaming".
Way to ruin my moment.
"I'll always be there to ruin your moment". I just ignored it and grabbed my keys and left to office.
When I was walking into the office I bumped into a wall. From where did this wall come from?
"Seriously Scarlett? You can't even see the walls? At least leave the poor things. What if they collapse someday by your constant bumping into them?"
SHUT UP!!!!
I was about to fall on my butt when two arms grabbed me by my waist and helped me in regaining my posture.
Hey, it's not a wall. Shit, it's not a wall but a muscular chest.
"Why do you always keep on bumping into people? Why are you so clumsy, idiot?" my inner voice snapped at me.
"Sorry," I said.
When I raised my eyes to see the face, I relaxed a bit since it was Mike, my stupid friend.
"Really? You can't bump into another guy? Why him?"
"Not you again," he said playfully "I seriously think you should consult a doctor for your eyes," he said smirking. Oh, how bad I want to wipe that smirk off his face.
"Yupp, it's me, and thanks for your stupid advice for which I don't give a shit. Keep that advice to yourself" I shot back as he gasped in shock.
Scar-1
Mike-0
Yeah!!
"Woah love, you seem pretty irritated today," he said.
"I'm just getting late Mike"
"You're not even giving me just 10 min of your time. You're so rude," he said faking a sniff.
"Don't be a drama queen," I chuckled.
"Hey look, my angel smiled," he said patting his shoulder. Mike had become a good friend of mine in the past month. He loves to tease me for some reason but is a kind and lovely friend and let me tell you a bit flirty. He is a handsome man with a fit body.
"But not as handsome as Ashton," I just rolled my eyes.
"Hey, you like Ashton,"
No, I don't like him romantically. He is just my boss and nothing more.
"Keep on lying" It snapped at me as I ignored it.
"Earth to Scar..," Mike said waving his hands in front of me.
"Huh.. what?" I asked coming out of my trance.
"What are you thinking?" he asked.
"Nothing," I said.
"Oh, Are you thinking of me?" he smirked.
"Only in your dreams," I said rolling my eyes. Just then I realized that we are very close to each other, he is holding my waist. I released myself from his grip and straightened my skirt. My face is flushed and embarrassed.
"I should get going," I said leaving not waiting for his answer.
I hopped in the lift and went to my office. I then made my way to the coffee machine and made coffee for Ashton. I went to his office and knocked on the door.
"Come in," He shouted.
What happened? Why does he sound mad?
I entered his cabin and went to give him his coffee.
"Put it on the table," he said without taking his eyes off the laptop. I kept that on the table and looked at him. He finally looked at me sternly.
"Why are you late?" He asked in a serious tone. What's with him? Why is he serious? And mostly why is he angry with me? I've never seen him serious ever since I was working with him.
"I.." I was going to say but he cut me off.
"What do you think it is? It's an office and not a club for flirting around with men" he shouted at me. Tears rolled in my eyes. He'd never been this rude to me. I'm so scared of people shouting at me. My dad never shouted at me.
"I.." I was trying to explain between my sobs but he cut me off again
"Don't try to fucking utter a word. I don't want to hear anything. JUST GET OUT" he shouted angrily. Tears flowed down my cheeks, I ran to my office and sobbed uncontrollably.
What did I do?
I didn't do anything wrong.
Why is he shouting at me not even giving me a chance to explain? I was weeping in tears for hours.
Time skipped and I didn't even notice that it was already 5 pm. I just sighed and got up, took my bag, and left. I went home and looked in the mirror.
I look like shit. My eyes are red and swollen from all the crying. My hair is a mess.
Aaarrggghh. I went to the bathroom and splashed cold water on my face which somewhat refreshed me.
I then went to the kitchen to make something because I'm so hungry. I searched the refrigerator but found nothing. I should go grocery and snacks shopping.
I picked up my mobile and ordered pizza. How can he do that? What did I do? Am I not working efficient enough for him? Did I ever be late for the office? NO! NEVER! Then why did he shout at me like that?
I went to the living room, snuggled with my teddy bear, and watched movies while eating pizza. By the time I ate my pizza and watched 2 movies its already 10 pm. So I head to my bed.
I lay on my bed thinking about today's events. How could he be so rude to me? He should have at least let me explain. But he didn't. I thought that he was so nice but no he isn't. I should stop thinking about him.
I HATE YOU MR.ASHTON MILLER!!!

Romance"I'd like you to take a seat, Miss. Cullen" he said. In response, I sat in one of the chairs as he turned to face me. My breath got hitched in my throat. Could I be imagining this or is it real? It was he who was in the elevator with me a while ago...
