Robert has been called a misanthrope, to some extent. And it's true, for the most part. He prefers to stay at home with his two cats and only go into work when he has to. And at work, he works as a lab assistant. He does this job because he claims to like the organization and quiet. However, it's more that he prefers to be away from people. He makes all of his meetings virtual and works hard to avoid people. 

But he enjoys experiencing different fresh drinks. Which is how he happens to meet a very extroverted and peppy, though scatterbrained, young woman named Ruth, who is always on the hunt for the best oranges for the best fresh-squeezed orange juice. Not sure why she is quite so alluring, though troublesome, Robert decides to try to help her, for no reason he could explain to anyone... even himself.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.

"Look, you've been vetted by my family and are probably nice enough with your reasonably decent lawyer or whatever job, but I'm not looking for my next year's Thanksgiving date." I sigh and, almost as an afterthought, ask, "What are you looking for then?" Ally's eyes, off in the distance, veer back to me. They dance alive with fire, or something else? "Honestly?" she asks and looks me up and over like accessing some kind of Thanksgiving ham at the store. "Someone that'll let me sit on their face for a night so I can blow off some steam and then never have to deal with them again." I, by the mere blessing of every angel and god, don't react by spitting out my beer. I just pull it from my lips and with all the casualness I can muster and put forth with the civilized and chilled guise of the amazing lawyer I am, say "Well, I'm not particularly full." In the modern era of commitment phobia, fed into by celebrated self-proclaimed independence, love still finds a way. Or at least 27-year-old lawyer Lenox Letsky has to hope, because he's invested way too much time of his obnoxiously high hourly rate into the pursuit of 25-year-old wannabe artist, Ally Waltin. She is by all accounts, the easiest girl he's ever met. The first time they met ended in a raunchy sexcapade after an easy win in an intense cornhole tournament. And they had the kind of effortless banter and natural chemistry that had him smiling days later. So why when everything was so easy, did she have to make it so hard? Ally is adamant that her defined terms are not to be ignored or changed. She will only accept something so long as it's nothing and Lenox is forced to comply or lose her. Though he has a plan. It's ripe with dumb stupid courage, childish games, and psychological strategies. And he's not above using any and all of them to win over the girl of his dreams and/or nightmares.

[ON GOING] [Fantasy] [Rivalry] [Romance] [Humor] The State only kept those who were fit to stay. And for as long as I have lived, I was as perfect as a Perfect can be. It takes becoming a traitor's daughter and a not-so-stable mental state to become anything but perfect. But I stay, and if I can't, then I think it's time to change the system. (First draft of this story)
