Sparks Fly

Chapter One

Bella sat there in the office where she worked. She worked for a law firm as an assistant to one of the law partners. Her three best friends also worked there as assistants as well. There were four guys in the firm and she and her best friends were assistants to each one of them. She took some files into the office of her boss, Nick Stone.

"Mr. Stone, I got the files you wanted," Bella said.

"Bella, how many times do I need to tell you to stop with the Mr. Stone, how long have you worked for me?" Nick said.

"Three years," Bella said.

"Don't you think it's time to go by first names," Nick said.

"I'm sorry Nick," Bella said.

"That's better," Nick said.

"Hey Bella, Nick, you two want to join us for lunch?" Amber asked.

"Who?" Bella asked.

"Me, Ben, Kenny, Ashley, Chris, and Sarah," Amber said.

"You guys go on, I need Bella's help with these files," Nick said.

"Maybe I want to go eat," Bella said.

"I'll call for takeout," Nick said.

"We will bring you guys some food when we come back," Amber said.

"Thank you Amber," Nick said.

"Thanks," Bella said.

"Bye guys," Amber said. She went out the door. Bella looked at Nick.

"Nick?" Bella said.

"Have a seat and let's get to work," Nick said. She sat down and they went over the files and she felt a hand on her leg.

"Nick, what are you doing?" Bella asked.

"Nothing," Nick said.

"Why is your hand on my leg?" Bella asked.

"Is it?" Nick asked.

"Nick," Bella said.

"Bella?" Alex said.

"Alex, hey what brings you by?" Bella asked.

"I saw Amber at the cafe down the street and she said you stayed to work," Alex said.

"This is Nick Stone, my boss, Nick, this is Alex, my older brother," Bella said.

"Nice to meet you, Alex," Nick said.

"You too Nick, I just wanted to talk to my sister for a moment," Alex said.

"You have ten minutes, we have work to do," Nick said.

"That's all I need," Alex said. Bella got up and walked out the door and closed the door.

"What's up bro?" Bella asked.

"I need advice," Alex said.

"About what?" Bella asked.

"Sis, I'm in love with Amber, but I'm scared to tell her how I feel about her," Alex said.

"Bro, just tell her,"Bella said.

"Can I hang out to wait for her to come back?" Alex asked.

"Yeah, just go wait at her office," Bella said.

"Okay, Mom called about dinner Sunday, sis, she wants you to find that special guy so she wants to set you up with Derek, her friend's son, she's inviting him to dinner," Alex said.
