Helpless, Scared, and alone. Three words to describe 13 year old Magnolia Carter after a traumatic event in her teenage years that took her the only person she'd ever loved and trusted away from her in a matter of minutes. Years later Flora works as...
If it's an appointment set up by an email then it should automatically put it in.
Maybe it's something Elena put in
There is a knock on the door
"It's open!" I yell scrolling back through my emails as the door opens then shuts
"Nice office Ms.America"Charles says as my eyes dart up and my jaw drops
"No no no, this is not happening" I say and back my chair out
He smiles as I walk i over to him
"You can't be here, it's one thing if you show up at my apartment but showing up at my place of work. This can't happen" I say a point at him
"Well I'm here. So it's happening" he shrugs and walks over to the couch not sitting down though
"You have to go Charles, this is unprofessional." I say as he chuckles
"I'm not leaving until we talk about what happened between us" he argues as i groan
"Your really persistent you know that" I question as he nods
"My best Quality actually" he smiles as i slouch onto the couch
"5 minutes" I sternly as he nods
"How do you feel?" He asks
"Not good, I'm not like that. You were drunk and I was tired and confused and vulnerable and I wanted an escape so I let it happen and I shouldn't have" I sigh as his face drops a tad bit but he changes expressions immediately
"You know, I think I needed an escape too" he softly says
"Look whatever it was, it's behind us. We just need to leave it in the past. It was a mistake and we need to just not" I explain
He nods and stands up
"Well, I'll see you next week Ms.America" he says quietly as i nod walking him to the door
"I'll see you Charles" I say quietly as he walks out
Once I close the door after him the feeling in my stomach was gone.
But it was replaced with a new feeling another one all to familiar to me and I knew it was something I needed to shake immediately if I wanted to maintain a work relationship with Charles
"Ok I just saw Charles walking to the elevator" Paul says walking In without knocking
"Your lucky I don't report you. It's a building rule to knock before you enter" I tease as he waves me off
"You know there is probably some rule against sleeping with clients" he jabs as I roll my eyes
"Not funny" i hiss
"Was he in here?" He asks coming and sitting on the chair across from mine at my desk
"Yeah." I say quitely
If I ask why will I regret it?" He asks
"No he made me talk to him about what happened, and because I'm literally a girl boss I had to keep it professional" I explain as he nods
"So it's going to be awkward next week in the meeting" he assumes as I shrug
"I will do my best to save you second hand embarrassment I joke as he laughs
