BRIANNA'S P.O.V.

"Bye!"

Goodbyes and good night's are all that I can hear from this building. I sigh, as my head sunk into my pillow. I have brought one from home since I work overtime sometimes.

"Working overtime?"

I brought up my head, looking to the one who just spoke from my behind. I let out a yawn, sinking back down to my pillow. "No.. I just wanna lay my head for a few minutes before going home.."

Shaun hops on my desk as he separated his legs and smiled down to me. "Love problem?"

"Eh?"

"Connor."

I went completely red when he mentioned that name. Grabbing the pillow underneath my worn out face, I hit Shaun on the face, but he was able to dodge it. I clicked my tongue.

"Too slow." He smirked.

"It was your fault," I sighed. "You're the one who made me realize that I like that person.."

Shaun leans in, "Oh.. so you really do like him?"

I blushed. "It was your fault.."

He backed away, crossing his arms and spoke again, "Wanna grab a bite?"

"Huh?" Was the only thing I could say.

"Tell me more about him."

"Connor?"

Shaun nodded. "Connor."

I grunted. "Just when I thought I'll be able to leave work without thinking of him.."

He grabbed me by the arm and dragged me all the way into his car.

"Come on, Shaun.. there really is nothing to talk about.. besides, Connor has somebody else."

"Huh?" He yelled. "You're kidding..?"

"I sure hope I am," I laughed. "Connor is in love with another girl.. and that girl has a boyfriend. It's a little complicated.."

"You like Connor. Connor likes another. She isn't available- love triangle."

"I'm just an extra.." I sighed.

"Why extra?"

"I'm just a girl Connor bumped into three years ago, and suggested a terrible plan.."

"Which is?"

"Pretending him and I are together, so to make everyone else think he's completely over Yojan."

"That's serious.."

"Seconded."

Shaun unlocked his car as it lights up, opening up the door for me, I was about to get in when I catch a sight of the person who was the subject of our conversation. A smile on his beautiful face and bangs flying over his forehead, his eyes widened when we caught each other's stare.

"Ria!" He shouts. Even though we agreed on giving each other a nickname.. we still call one another the same.

Connor suddenly stops when he saw that I was with Shaun. Looking back over to me, he said, "You have plans..?"

"Oh? Him?"

Shaun groaned. "Him?!" He turned to the blonde man. "I am Shaun, her boss. Nice to meet you!"

He takes Shaun's hand gently with a smile. "My name is Connor. Although I think that Ria has already mentioned me to you.."

Shaun glared at me, with an annoying grin across his face. "Oh.. so you're Connor, huh?"
