      I'm obvious that I'm late. Like really super late .Thanking the cashier guy , I grabbed my coffee and exited Starbucks. I jogged to the entrance and ran towards the lift when suddenly I banged into someone making coffee spill on their white shirt.

"Shit I'm so sorry! I didn't I-I to do I wa-" I stuttered and looked up and saw Harry. Shit. I closed my eyes waiting for his outburst. Ding! The lift's door opened and I got in after him. "It's fine no problem." I opened my eyes and stared at him with my jaw wide open.

   Taking a step closer to him, I placed the back of my hand on his forehead and on his neck." Are you fine? Do you have fever or something like a flu? Did you swap personalities with someone?" I rambled on ignoring the heat and electric feeling on my hands.

   He chuckled before removing his coat. His shirt was sticking to his body. His tattoos were clearly seen through his wet white button down shirt. His body was defined like a Greek god. He coughed "Take a picture it lasts longer" he spoke sending a wink. I rolled my eyes and got out of the lift.

    I go to my desk and sit at my desk when all the three look at me weirdly. Like always, I write down what I'm going to do for today and I feel their stares. Giving them the 'what' look, they all speak together "Why so gleeful ?"

"Gleeful ? Oh happy. Who even uses that word? And what no no oh yeah its just that yesterday..." I go on telling what all happened when I'm suddenly cut off by my office phone ringing. I ask them to keep quite.

  "Hello Styles Enterprise."

  "Office now!"

Oh no! Devil's back!

  I excuse myself and rush and enter the lift. I dust my jeans and put my hair in place. Buttoning my top button I knock on his door. I see him walking left and right, running his hand through his hair. He's wearing a black tee which is clutching his body.

He looks at me and chuckles when he realizes I was staring. "Umm.. " I cough not yet over his body. "I need your help." I stare at him. He needs MY help? Why! I nod my head and wait for what he's going to say.

"I need to find a perfect gift. Tell me what do girls love the most? Make up? Dresses? Shoes?.." he keeps rambling moving his hands up and down. "Wait. It actually depends on who you are giving the gift to." I cut him off.

He looks at me kind of pissed because I interrupted him."It's my si-" his phone started ringing on his table. He signals me to keep quite while I stand there, hands crossed on my chest.

He clears his throat and speaks through the brand new iPhone "Hellow. Yes?"

"No I didn't forget."

"You're coming to the office?!" He raises his voice slightly.

"OK uh..umm.. you are already in right?"

"OK bye." He speaks through his gritted teeth. He turns towards me looking all flustered, eyes wide "Fast she coming here don't allow her to enter and buy me a gift by today before five. Tell her I'm busy and I'll meet her at six thirty for dinner." I nod my head . I was about to head out when he tells me to wait. He hands me his credit card which I quickly deny and get out of his office.

"Excuse me move I need to go in." I turn around and come face to face with the model who he hangs out with every time I see him out.

"Umm.. you're not al-alowed to go in?" I flash my most innocent smile. "Listen girl, do you even know who I am?" Her voiced laced with annoyance. I shake my head mockingly "Um.. no I don't. Who are you?"

"I'm Vanessa Sparks. Victoria Secret top model." She smirks and places her hands on her hip. "Am I supposed to care or....?" I ask her mockingly.

She stamps her feet and the ground with her high pencil heels and points her so long manicured finger at me." Get put of my way I need to meet him. He's my boyfriend so please move." My heart drops and I move aside letting her in.

I feel this weird feeling in my stomach. I ignore it and go down to finish my files.

.......................

"No Nat I can't talk in here. He'll murder me!" I massage my temple when suddenly Harry comes to my desk."Office now!" "I-I'll call you back." I whisper through the phone and hang up. Oh no! What did I do now?!

Niall and Perrie raise their thumbs as I sign of best of luck. I glare at them while the give high five to each other and laugh. Harry turns and they go and act to do their works. I poke my tongue at them while they salute at me.

   I try standing as far from him in the lift. He is angry. Beyond angry. He keeps on running his hand through his hair. Like you can see fire radiating from him. That pissed he is. I let him go out of the lift and then go follow him.

I look at the time and notice its five thirty . Shit! I forgot about the gift stuff!! He slams the door close . "What is wrong with you! I gave you one small work that also you couldn't do properly?!" He blasts and I move backwards not ready for his outburst

"I umm .. what did I exactly do wrong?" Asking him with the little courage I had. His head turns sharply at me, glaring. If looks could kill I would be dead my now. He takes a step closer " Tell me what you did correct?! I told you not to let her in. Right! Couldn't you do that small thing?!"

"Umm.. she's your girlfriend so I cou-" he grabs my arm and pushes me towards the wall." I don't care who the fuck she was ! You could at least do that small thing!" He voice echoing in the office.

"You- you are hurting me." I whimper. His hands are roughly gripping my arms and I'm sure there will be marks."I don't give a shit about your hands now." He replies back

This guy is ruining my life! First he's bad. Then he's good. Now he's worse! His phone rings and he still doesn't let me go. "Umm.. yo- you're phone's ringing." He blinks and let's me go. I've never been so thank full for a phone ringing.

   I gently rub my arms where he had held. I was about to leave when " Oh and Emily?" I turn as I see him smirking " I was honest when I said I'm going to make you quit this job." I stare at him through my eyes in slits. I bang the door after I leave.

Let the game begin!
