Can's p.o.v

"....The sales on the new game are drastic and I would as much like a improvement on graphics a bit. The update should be up in less than a week so I expect everyone to work on that...."

The meeting started an hour ago and trust me this was so far the most boring thing happened to me. I could hardly control my sleep and I yawned loudly gaining some unwanted attention. I slapped a hand over my mouth as I mentally hit myself for doing something so dumb. Its not like I had control over my body. My body acted on its own.

Tin threw a glare at me before sighing and continuing with his boring discussion. I figured he was done with me. I didn't even bother listening to it, even if I did I wouldn't understand a word, I was confident. And useless, I may add. 

The least I could do is pretend to listen to his speech. I leaned over and rested my face on my palm supported by my elbow. I looked at him, pretending to listen while he was on and on about the new game. As usual he was wearing his black suit with a white shirt underneath his jacket. He was hot, charming and all but once an asshole is always an asshole. Believe me in this, I have a sparkling sense of detecting assholes in close proximity and that dude was definitely  on the list.

Then again I went back thinking about yesterday when he for once stopped acting like an arrogant commanding boss and though I hate to admit it he was indeed nice, I couldn't even erase his happy face from my mind. This guy was confusing, very. Or I'm simply confusing myself by thinking about him a lot more than necessary.  Both are true at some point.

As my mind began to argue on that point, I heard a faint voice calling my name.

"...Can"

"Arr.. Can!"

"Cantaloupe-"

My eyes gained back it vision as I was well aware of my surroundings now. I was about to bark at whoever dared to call me by my full name but life had some other wicked plans. Tin was right there few inches away from my face with an annoyed but a teasing smirk and  I literally jumped out of my skin so quick that I fell back on the ground along with the chair. And trust me it hurt like bitch.

I could hear collective chuckles from the others and  I wanted nothing more than the ground to open up and swallow me so  I wouldn't have to face the upcoming embarrassment. And it was all because of that one person,

T fucking in, Tin!

I lifted my ass from the chair and I ended up falling on the floor, I am sure as hell  I did something in the past to face this cruelty. I could see Tin walk over while suppressing a laugh. He bent over and extended his hand still grinning like a cheeky creep. I glared at him with all my will, if looks could kill a person, Tin would probably be on his way to hell now. I stood up all by myself ignoring Tin's extended hand still keeping my steady glare on him. He didn't seem to get affected by it at all, he instead chuckled at me.

Chuckled at, me?  How dare he?

"And That is for sleeping with eyes open in my meeting. Serves you well!" Tin stated, making me scoff. He continued "Others can leave, and quicken the working pace."

With that everyone exited, each giving me either an apologetic look or simply laughed at me.
Tin turned towards me with whole bunch of papers, he put them in my hands and continued blabbering    " as a punishment you have to do half of Techno's paperworks. After you're done arranging them, I want 5 copies of each paper. Got that?"

I nodded and as soon as he turned around to leave I muttered rather loud "asshole!"

"Heard you, Cantaloupe. Don't make me punish you more" Tin offered suggestively and I looked at him dumbfounded.
I stuttered lamely "I-...I didn't say...anything-"  There was no use speaking, he already left and I could literally see him smiling to himself through the transparent glass door.

Arrrrrr........ What a creep! I looked at the paperwork and sighed before getting into it.

*******

I sighed and stretched my body when I was finally done with the work. I headed to Tin's office room informing that I was done with the work, he gave me an amused smile and ranted something about his lazy workers which I hardly give a damn about.

I headed to the copy room, where the xerox machines usually were. I casually opened the door, I was about to enter when I jumped out of my skin for the second time of the day.  I saw something which I wasn't suppose to see. My jaw dropped as I took in the scene ahead of me, I froze for two straight seconds before turning my head so fast that I'm positive I broke my neck. I closed the door quickly. I could feel my whole body heat up in shame.

Okay, I did not  just see, Kla and Techno on the table doing some unholy censored things. Ewwww. At least, they didn't notice me opening the door, it would've been awkward, glad that they were too busy to notice my tiny stature. Oh thank god!  

I headed back to the office room still not over the initial shock. Tin noticed me and observed me for a second before walking towards me with a frown adorning his face.

"You're done making copies already?" He asked, and it most probably and definitely reminded me of the scene I've witnessed earlier and it of course made me look comical.

"I um-"

Tin leaned forward with a wary look,
"Why is your face so red?" He asked placing his hand on my forehead. His touch, somehow made my heart race, as dumb as it sounded but I could literally hear my pounding heartbeat.

"Are you sick? You don't look so nice. Maybe you should take the day off, Can." He said, moving his hand from my forehead to my cheek. I could feel his knuckles brush against my cheek and it  didn't help my red face  any better, it rather  turned to crimson .  As I always say, My body acted on its own.

He retracted his hand from my face, and I looked up speaking gibberish "I- Its not...like that. I'm not s-sick. Its just-"

I cleared my throat before finishing lamely "I walked in on Techno and Kla awhile ago and......they were- y-you know-"

I was interrupted by loud laughter, and I looked up to see Tin on the ground laughing like a maniac. Oh come on, now what's so funny?

As if he was reading my thoughts he blurted "Your face was so damn funny!!! Oh my god-"
He burst into another round of laughter. Seriously, this guy was getting on my nerves.

Getting on my nerves means death. And his death means, jail and losing my job so I decided on giving him my signature glare instead.

He stood up composing himself before speaking "So you were blushing, and here I thought you were sick. Ah seriously cantaloupe, you surprise me everyday!"

Okay, now what the heck did he find so surprising in this whole situation? If I could, I'd permanently replace his name to asshole' cause he just couldn't stop acting like on. He totally pissed me off.

"Oh Can, You should get used to my employees here. They're always so horny and I gave up on them. " Tin said patting my hair like I'm some kind of a pet. I stepped back, "I-I wasn't blushing okay? I was just shocked."

"Oh yeah  totally!" He mocked. "I should start calling you cantablush , how does that sound?" He laughed at his own joke making me groan at him. I left excusing myself, not before throwing him a glare.

Arrogant prick!

A/N : so how was that guys? It was my first time writing Can's point of vision. If you find it weird, I'd go back to writing in 3rd POV. Share your views!
