The Boss

Dinner at his house

"I have three white and three black tees, four blouses, two long trousers and a skirt, a coat and a pullover. Damn it, I forgot the shoes, what is your size?"
"Forty, I think that is a six in the uk?"
"Correct, be right back." And she ran off again after placing the clothes on the bed and I laughed, she reminds me of me to be honest "I'm back! I have a white and black pair puma's for you. If something breaks or tares or gets lost, call me and I will send you new ones." She smiled and took a deep breath
"Thank you so so much Christy, you are an angel."
"No problem, thank you, good luck in Australia and I will send the rest of your clothes to the travel department."
"Oh Christy, one more thing. I wasn't supposed to join Toto in two more weeks so I don't have any regular clothing for weather like Australia here. Is there a way for me to get my stuff from home?"
"Yes, you can ask your family or friends to send them here and we can store your clothes at the house or in this room. You can also buy a wardrobe for here so you have your clothes here and at your home. They won't be here when you are leaving for Australia anyway, so anything you want you can do." She explained
"Okay great, thank you so much for all of your help."
"My pleasure, good luck and I will see you around."

Christy left and I planted myself on the bed next to my new clothes. I obviously have my suitcase with clothes with me for my supposed to be holiday here so that helps but Australia is hella hot. Maybe I can go shopping in London tomorrow for some summer clothing or order some online. I'm glad I brought my good bikini so I don't have to replace that. I hanged the items in the closet and changed into the white pair of puma's, relieving my feet from hellish confinement. I grabbed the keys and my phone and locked the room and walked back towards my office.

"I was about to file a missing persons report, where is your new phone." Toto stood in the doorway with his arms crossed and frown forehead
"I was collecting the keys to my room and I got some cool clothes from Christy." I showed him my sneakers
"Did she overload you with information?" He laughed
"Yes, but she is so sweet."
"She is okay, I wondered why you became so small though, but it's the sneakers of course." He towered over my five foot ten with his six foot five and I wanted to melt into him, cuddle for days.
"Yeah, well, I'm not good with heels and heels are not good with me. We hate each other but sometimes we need each other." I shrugged my shoulders and smiled at him
"That is a serious problem, how do you even cope?" He mocked and walked into my office
"Very funny Toto, are you done with phone calls and meetings?"
"Yes, I came to get you but you were gone."
"I'm here now, so get out of my office and into a car." I grabbed the room key and my phones and he just stood behind me
"You are a bit of a brat, aren't you?" He looked down at me and I swallowed
"I am not a brat, I'm just forward. And I am always joking and sarcastic, so I didn't mean any disrespect." I said
"Yes, you told me that. But that mischievous look in your eyes is telling me otherwise. But I will let it go, for now. Let's go to my house." He winked and walked away.

For the love of god, just pull my hair and I will call yo....

"Romée, let's go." Toto added and I ran towards him
"Do we need to get groceries?" I asked
"No, I have everything at the house. Do you have everything?"
"I have both of my phones, that's all I need right?"
"Yes, perfectly fine." Toto smiled and we walked towards his car where a chauffeur was already waiting for him. We drove for an hour or so and talked a bit about the scenery. When we arrived at his home I gasped. It was this beautiful brown brick country house with a grey roof and white frames. We entered the driveway and the chauffeur brought us to the front door before taking off again. Toto unlocked the door and stepped away so I could move past him. He has light hardwood floors with high white ceilings and everything was modern mixed with countryside.

"I'm not here often, but a cleaning service comes here every month to check the place out. They do groceries for me as well." He wiggled his eyebrows and I chuckled
"What a dream." I sighed "Can you even cook?" I asked and he stopped walking and turned around with a raised brow
"Excuse me, of course I can." He huffed
"I am sorry for assuming but you travel every single day and you are always at hotels so when do you even cook?" I asked, trying to tease him a bit and he leaned forward a bit
"Are you challenging me miss Pierce?
"Maybe, I'm just wondering if you can live up to the expectations." I shrugged but my heart was hammering inside wondering if I am overstepping
Toto straightened his back and turned me around by my shoulders and walked us over towards the kitchen.
"Sit." Toto pointed at the barstool and walked towards the fridge "Do you care for some wine?" He asked and I nodded my head
"Romée?"
"Yes?"
"Do you care for some wine?" He grinned
"Yes, please, white if you have it." I blushed
"I have a Pinot or a riesling."
"What do you recommend?" I asked
"When we are in Germany or Austria I will let you taste the best riesling you have ever tasted, so let's go for the Pinot now." He opened the bottle and poured two cold glasses. "To your new job." He held his glass up
"To our new partnership." I said, regretting the choice of words a bit
"Yes, to our partnership." He winked and we toasted
