Starr's POV

I made my out of the elevator, walking down the hall to see a few people sitting outside of my office. I looked over to the reception desk to find it empty as I made my way to my office wondering if she was here.

I opened my door, stepping in spotting her near the file cabinet as I closed the door.

"Good morning Cassidy,"

"Ms. Webster," she replied smiling as I moved over to my desk.

"Are all of them for me?" I asked referring to the people outside as she moved over to the door grabbing a small stool.

"No some of them are for Alec, he is still on his assistant search," she said and I smiled, my gaze following her as she moved around the office gracefully, before climbing on top of the stool.

"What are you doing?" I asked alarmed.

"I'm looking for the Prons file," she replied as I moved over to her. I held onto the stool in fear of her falling, it hadn't been a secret that I was attracted to both men and women even though some people choose to ignore it.

I have always been able to separate my personal life from my professional but with Cassidy, those lines seemed to be blurred and the worst part was she was straight.

"I found it," she said and I moved back allowing her to step down, she turned facing me her light brown eyes locking with mine.

"Why do you need it?"

"I don't Alec does," she replied and I rolled my eyes.

"He needs to find his ass an assistant and stop using mine," I mumbled irritated and she laughed.

"I'm not complaining," she said amused.

"But I am, I don't like sharing," I said and she smiled walking out of my office.

Three days later

I took a sip of my whiskey, something I became addicted to because of my brother Dylan, I looked up at my screen as I continued to type. My mind steered away from my work going to Cassidy, her brown curls, her smile-

"Starr," I heard her call out and I looked up meeting her gaze as she walked towards me.

"We're ready, you coming?" She asked

"Ahh, yeah hold on," I said turning off my laptop. I have never truly been one to hide my feelings but the fear of losing her was greater than having her for myself.

"I see you've already started," she said smiling looking at my glass of whiskey.

"Yeah," I said laughing slightly grabbing my jacket, she moved closer to my desk grabbing my glass finishing my drink, the small action intimate to my longing mind.

"Come on," she said holding out her hand and I took it letting her lead the way.

"You seem happy today," I pointed out and she laughed pulling me out the door towards the elevator.

"You should be too, I mean you just secured the deal of a lifetime," she said as we stepped in, I looked down at her 5'3 figure my 5'5 height making her tilt her head slightly.

"I am," I smiled sleepily and she leaned into me as the elevator descended.

"Is it because we're going to a club?" She asked knowing it wasn't my usual scene, I didn't really like noise and my introverted self preferred to be away from people I had no connection or relationship with.
