love on the brain

00:50

I sigh in exhaustion after parking the car in Alison's parking lot. It was a quarter to ten, the latest I have ever gotten home after a day of work. Usually I'd be home around four or sometimes even five.

Who am I kidding, I'd usually be home before 3 if not 2. Because I was a lazy bitch who thought I would never get in trouble for leaving working so early, not that I ever did but I felt this was my punishment.

For taking advantage of my job and now look at me, an assistant to an asshole who only wants to tortures me to bother Alison.

I should've been home before 3, right?
But today was different.

Vince worked the hell out of me, from answering calls, to making copy's, to following him to boring business meetings, to getting everyone coffee.

And if the coffee wasn't right, meaning didn't have enough sugar, creamer or wasn't a certain temperature, I'd have to go back to get a new one.

Luckily there was Starbucks nearby the new office so it wasn't much a hassle but it was still annoying to be his slave.

I could tell I was going to drop dead before I could even quit this stupid position. I mean my body was literally aching, and not the the good kind.

My body hasn't felt this sore since I training for a swim meet back in high school. I sighed before forcing a smile, Alison was inside probably expecting me and wondering where I was.

I refuse to let her know about this, not that I was keeping secrets or anything but I knew alison, she would make a way for Vince to either disappear or lose his company or make me out of a job.

I got out the car and my knees immediately felt weak, causing me to lose my balance for a second but luckily it was regained.

I looked down at my heels to notice that my feet were swollen, of course they would be... theses are 6inch pumps that I had been standing in all damn day.

God.

I grab my purse and shut the door open, slowly approaching the front door. The door opens and Tyler immediately greets me, "good evening, Miss Fields" he says before taking my purse.

"thank you"
I say before entering the house, "Ally has prepared your dinner for you, are you ready to eat as of yet or do you want to eat after your shower?" he asks.

Was I hungry, yes. But I think sleep for me right now is more important than anything, especially when Vince wants me to be at the office at 8'clock in the morning.

"umm.... did Alison eat yet? I can wait to eat dinner with her" I tell him sitting down to take off my heels.

"Well..." I cut him off, "did she already eat without me?" I ask with a little shock as I took off the heels, in my voice hoping not so. I think for the next couple of days most of our conversation would be at the dining room, discussing how our days went.

Especially because I'm getting busy and because she is Alison. She's always busy.

"No, Miss Fields. The thing is Ms. Dilaurentis is still at her office..."

I stop immediately and face him, Alison's been there since yesterday night. Why hasn't she come home yet?

"What do you mean?"

"Well, she informed the staff that she was still stuck at the office and wanted us to make sure you got home safely and your dinner was ready" he explained.

That's another night of being without her.

"When did she say she was coming home?" I ask him seriously.
