Day 6: "Drinks With The Boss"

Jenna's Pov:

This had to have been the most random day ever, They day had begun with Jenna waking up late she'd never slept in before and she struggled to get her morning routine finished before she had to rush to work. To make matters worse on the way there someone crashed into her spilling her freshly made hot coffee all over her work clothes she groaned internally as the person walked away not giving a flying fuck about what he had just done. Jenna walked into work frustrated and the day had just begun her best friend approached her as soon as she had gotten through the door 'Mr. Carlson wants to see you Jenna' She whispered with a frown noticing the stain across her friends blouse and outer jacket she cringed 'You cannot wear that into his office!' She hissed pulling Jenna toward her desk and shoving a new shirt at her that she'd pulled from her desk 'Always be prepared' She said with a gentle smile. Jenna gave her friend a forced smile trying her hardest not to lead on just how unhappy she really was and having to go in and see the boss only made things worse he was a perverted old man and whenever someone went into the office they came out complaining of being groped or hit on and Jenna did whatever she possibly could to avoid going in there... Until today that is. She changed into the shirt that her friend had given her in the restroom before she headed to his office she took a deep breath mentally preparing herself before she finally knocked. 'Come in' Mr. Carlson called from the other side and she twisted the knob pushing the door open and stepped inside 'Shut the door behind you' He stated and she hesitated, But complied with his order before she turned to him and she was jaw droppingly surprised that he wasn't alone. 'Sir?' She asked seeing the other rather attractive man standing beside Mr. Carlson who was sat in his desk chair his hands perched on his desk where he rested his head looking her over. 'Sit' Mr. Carlson stated and she moved slowly taking a seat in the chair across from him and she looked the new guy over he seemed to be doing the same to her and she flushed red. 'What's going on sir?' She asked switching her gaze to Mr. Carlson who sat up straight fixing his suit jacket.

'This is Dakota Edmond. He is my boss's son and he is fixed to take over the company when his father retires. I was requested in finding him a personal secretary it seems his father took to you last time he was here and wants you to fill this position' Mr. Carlson explained, But he did not seem happy about any of this. Last time Mr. Edmond had come for a visit which is something he did monthly assuring everyone he was still here for the company and the people who worked here. Jenna had met him by accident running into him when she was rushing to Mr. Carlson's office with his morning coffee something her best friend usually did, But she had been out sick that day. She had nearly spilled the coffee all over Mr. Edmond, But had managed to come to a quick halt before this happened she was surprised to see him and even more surprised by how kind he had been the two spoke a while and neither noticed the time pass until Mr. Carlson had come looking for both his coffee and Mr. Edmond he was surprised to see them both in the same place and semi upset about this. He had ushered Jenna back to work taking his coffee and urged Mr. Edmond into his office she wondered if Dakota would be as kind as his father? 'So I'll be working for him now?' She asked looking up at Dakota who looked down at her and she couldn't read his expression. 'Yes. You will be moving to his office and you'll no longer be working for me' Mr. Carlson stated looking rather stiff clearly he was upset with all of this, But Jenna was honestly excited to get the hell out of here. 'Where is his office?' She asked tilting her head 'In my home' Dakota stated meeting her curious gaze which soon turned to surprise 'Y-Your house?' She stuttered and he smirked at her reaction he found this amusing 'Yes, My house. Will that be a problem?' He asked pointedly 'I-I Uh no' She stuttered even tho that was far from true she wasn't sure how she felt working from this guys house she'd just met him and ugh she tried her best to keep it together, But somehow he saw through her still he looked amused with her discomfort and she knew now that he wasn't nearly as nice as his father.
