Brianna

After spending the night with my best friend, I felt ready to take on Michael. I wasn't about to let him mess with my head. I video called my son before I went to work telling him me and his godmother were picking him up this afternoon.

I decided to wear my red pantsuit with a gold charm necklace I got from my mom adding my signature Victoria's Secret Warm Vanilla Sugar perfume on my wrists with a pair of black red bottoms.

I guess this would be okay. It's just Tuesday.

Girl! I said impress him not make him suffer! All the men are gonna be all over you today. I'm jealous bitch! I got good news though! CeCe said.

What chick? I said

I can come but I still have one more day of maternity leave. So I'm coming with you today!

Michael

At the office I found myself looking forward to seeing HER. I heard one of the guys saying how sexy the new girl looked today and had to do a double take. She walked in the office like SHE owned it and not me.

How is it possible to look sexier than she did yesterday. I didn't know she knew CeCe. How did she know CeCe? I've gotta talk to her.

Good morning Ms. King. You look...stunning. You've caused quite a stir this morning. I need you to come to my office in an hour please.

Yes, Mr. Jordan, she replied looking suspiciously at me.

An hour couldn't get here fast enough.

Ms. Barlow, don't you have one more day on maternity leave? Why are you here?

My best friend is here and she needed my guidance. That's why I'm here sir.

An Hour Later

Brianna

I knocked on the door to Michael's office right on time.

Come in Ms. King, I heard his baritone through the door.

Why am I so nervous? He's just a regular man. Fuck that! He's not a regular man. Not with those biceps he's not.

I walked through the door and paused as I saw him leaning on his desk looking at me.

Y-you wanted to see me sir? I asked. I cursed myself for stuttering.

Close the door Ms. King.

I closed the door and took the chair he offered me.

Michael

First off, I understand you not wanting to overstep boundaries in the workplace. Especially with calling me by my name. However, when it's just me and you... Call me Mike or Michael, I told her.

Okay Mike. Why am I here? She asked.

Hearing her say my name hit me in ways I didn't understand. I needed answers.

How do you know CeCe? You two looked rather close today.

She's my best friend and my son's godmother.

So you have a son? How old is he?

That's a little personal don't you think?

It's something about you that I find intriguing Brianna and I'm intent on finding out what it is.

Yes I have a two year old son.

You should bring him to LupusLA next weekend.

Excuse me? I don't think that's a good idea.

It's for a really good cause and I would really love it if you came. It means a lot to me.

I will think about it okay? Can I get back to work now?

Yes Brianna. Thank you for considering.

Why do I have a feeling she's into me? Nah my mind is playing tricks on me. Hopefully she says yes. Let me get some work done.
