It was 3 am when mission control called my apartment. That's never a good sign. I groaned rolling over onto my side grabbing for my phone. I clumsily put them on speaker before resting my head back on the pillow.
"Is this Charlotte?" Asked the voice curtly.
"Yes sir." I said trying not to yawn.
"We're going to need you to report to your station immediately. A problem has come up with flight Venus II and it is imperative that you come as soon as to you-"
"I'll be there in ten minutes." I said, my heart pounding as I sat up, flipping on my lamp.
"That's our girl!" The man said hanging up. I pulled on my favorite tee shirt over my tank top and grabbed my keys off the bedside table. I dashed out of my apartment room faster than I should've been able to. I ran out into the rain, and didn't even try to dodge puddles as I ran to my car. Please start. Please start. Please start. I thought to myself jamming in the keys and flooring the pedal. The car vroomed to life, whizzing down the street. I slowed down until I was going just over the speed limit, making what would've usually been the ten minute cheery one singing to the radio into a five minute, prayer filled one that seemed endless. When I finally clocked in and ran into the control room I found that it was only me and Theo, my boss.

"Slain, take me to Campus now!" "We're going to Campus." I sighed in relief, "But later." I gaped, ready to open the door and jump out of the car but I decided against it. "Slain, please. We're not going anywhere, this, is not going anywhere. So how about, we forget the whole, I sleep with you thingy and just move on." I told him as if it was simple, but it wasn't. What we have is beyond sex and we both knew it. We just needed each other, to be close. We could just go in for sex but at the end just lay there with our clothes on just in each other's embrace. We were complicated, we both don't want commitment, we get jealous easily and we don't back down for each other. That's why we're not going anywhere.Complete

Lucas was beyond annoyed. "Why'd you press that button?" He said, angrily. "It was an accident." "Well, we're stopped now. You pressed the stopping button." "Ok...can you undo it?" "Do I look like elevator maintenance?" "Fine!" She said with the same tone, as she pressed the red button on the elevator key. She assumed that the red button was for elevator maintenance. "What are you doing?!" Lucas exclaimed. "What?" "You just pressed the fire button. Now the fire department is going to show up!" "Well, how am I supposed to know?! I thought it was the help button." All of her tiredness went away in the heat of the moment. "Maybe open your eyes and read what it says." "Open my eyes?!" She was livid, so she let him have it. "I had two hours of sleep last night! Two! Because someone decided that they want to have a nightclub in their pent house...in the middle of the night! Oh and to add on that...I've been at work for the past eighteen hours! Eighteen! So don't start telling me to open my eyes and read what it says when you're the reason I am so sleep deprived and making mistakes!" Lucas just stared at her with a straight face and asked in the most serious tone, "Are you normal?"Complete![My Boss [COMPLETED]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/82215221-256-k439832.jpg)

Bed of Nails
"Get out," I said in a firm voice, but it shook a bit at the end. The muscles in his jaw tensed when I said that. Instead of getting out, he closed the door and started taking calculative predatory steps toward me. His eyes moved all over my length. My heart started to drum fast. It made me take a step back until my back was flat against the wall. "I said get out," I repeated, trying to sound firm when he was only a step away from me. He stood in front of me with his hands in his pants pocket. "Last time I checked, I still own this place," he said arrogantly in his deep voice, which made me want to sink into the wall. He stood in front of me. "But it's my workplace," I breathed out when he cut an inch of distance between us. His body was not touching me, but my body still twitched as if his calloused hands were moving all over me. I lowered my eyes and took a deep breath to calm myself, but my heartbeat raised when I heard steps coming towards us. "Someone is coming. Go from here," I found myself pleading. The steps became louder as if the person were just a few steps away from opening the door. I don't want rumours to be spread here. An evil smile formed on the corner of his lips looking at the distress on my face. "I'm not afraid to be seen with my wife," he said in his deep, low voice, sending shivers down my spine. My eyes snapped towards him in anger. I know he was doing this on purpose because no one here knows we are married. Why is he breaking the deal?
