As I stand gaping at this gorgeous hunk I've just bumped into I think to myself why did I decide to get out of my comfy double bed this morning? Oh that's right because I need to keep my job in order to be able to keep a roof over my head and food in my stomach. "Are you just going to stand there or are you going to get out of my way?" A deep voice cuts through my thoughts I glance around and come to the realisation that The Reaper is speaking to me.
"I-I'm your n-new personal assistant Mr R-Reaper." Damn I wish a hole would just open up and swallow me right now! how is it possible that my voice sounded so small when I needed it to be strong.
"You are my new Personal Assistant? Couldn't they get me one that isn't about to piss themselves?" He says glaring at me. I take a deep breath and look up into his light green eyes.
"Excuse me I'm not about to piss my pants, I'm your new PA wether you like it or not and she- I point to Janine who's currently still ogling Mr Scar face, is your new nutritionist." Turning back to face The Reaper I say forcefully "How about we start over, my name is Talia." I offer him my hand to shake he stares down at it like I have offended him. "I don't shake hands espesially not ones that look like they will snap." He spits out in detest. "Ok, and your name is?" I fire back to my horror he throws his head back laughing sarcasticly and storms towards Sid.I take this moment to properly get a complete look at the giant of a man stood now across the room I begin with his face, I've already became lost in his green eyes and gazed upon his sharp chiseled jawline his hair is short at the back but long and floppy on the top every few moments he wafts a small piece of dark brown almost black hair from out of his face, his hand has calluses on due to training and fighting for so long his long pianist fingers glide across his forehead as small beads of sweat drip down, a medium size tattoo in the shape of a grim reaper is inked into his skin on the left side of his chest which must of hurt I say that but he has thousands of tattoos that litter upon both of his arms reaching up past his elbows, my eyes wander a bit further and I catch a quick glimpse of his perfectly chiseled 8 pack. "Like what you see there Talia?" My sneak peak at The Reaper is rudely intturupted.
"Huh?" I turn and look towards the voice that spoke only to notice everyone is looking at me Janine stands her hand sits upon her hip as she looks at me all to knowingly I quickly look at Sid who looks like he's about to combust into fits of laughter, then my gaze lands upon The Reaper who's smirk says something different to the smouldering look he's giving me. he's currently pointing my way.
"I don't have time for this do whatever but don't touch any of my shit in here and don't bother talking to me I don't care if it's important or not." He shouts at me turning to Sid he grunts out "A word outside now!" His anger rolls of off him in waves as he storms toward the door slamming it open and walking out, Sid begins to follow but not before turning to me with some parting words "Great, thanks now you got my ass in trouble but if I'm in trouble so are you"! he slams the door shut behind him. I look at Janine and say "Well for a man that was almost laughing a minute ago he's really quite an asswipe".The room is now silent Janine seems to be in shock as the echo of the door slamming bounces around the room. "Well that went great didn't it?" I say to her but she still seems to be in shock from the what the fuck just happened expression that's now on her face. You know what forget this I'm out he's rude, cocky, mean and a down right asshole." I finish stamping my foot hard against the hard wooden floor.
"You do realise I can hear you right? the room isn't sound proof and don't ever call me an asshole cupcake." A voice snaps from behind the door I instantly know it's The Reaper and he just gave me a nickname. "Oh crap." I jump behind Janine using her as my human shield. "Great, way to go Talia piss him of some more and we might end up thrown out on our butts." Janine states whirling round to face me.
"I know but-" I get stopped as Janine puts her hand on my mouth.
"Look Talia I know they are both mean but we need to at least try to ignore it and maybe just maybe we can actually pull this of. Now go put on your big girl panties, we need to go out there and study his fight I need to get started on a nutrition plan and you need to figure out what the plans are for his next fights and for his daily life ok?." She whispers removing her hand from my face, there is one thing I love the most about Janine and it's that she really knows how to give a motivational speech I think it stems from her being a personal trainer but it's really what I need right now.I whip out my note pad and grab the pen from Janine I begin to write a small entry about what has just occurred as my hand flows across the page I begin to day dream about the arrogant man I just met.
My thoughts race and I'm starting to wonder why he's so angry maybe that is one of the many things I need to delve deeper into. The Reaper is beginning to intrigue me.
