"If you really keep your hands to yourself then sure sir"I said and he chuckled, if he wasnt my boss I could say boldy that I had a crush on him but reality check, I really dont have a crush on him. He's hot but he's my boss, cant do that. And I knew nothing about him, only that he's a ladies man, a perv who finds out to control himself.

"You dont have to worry anymore Miss D'Souza, so shall we go?"He asked as he got up from the couch . OMG he was so tall, especially compared to me.

"We shall Mr Styles"I said in my best professional voice I could and I followed him out of my office taking my purse.

Cant believe Im actually doing this.

"Oh by the way, thanks for the sandwhich, tell your mother thank you and she's the best sandwhich maker"He said nicely as we were walking to the elevator. I smiled a lot than usual, I didn't expect him to remember my mom's sandwhich and certainly didn't expect him to say thank you. Was he really changing?

Mr Styles swiped his keycard to call the elevator and it luckily came quickly so we both got inside. I just had a sudden doubt, will I have to drive him in my cat? Because there was no way I was gonna leave my car in here, Im going home with my car. My baby will be with me.

"Melanie?"Mr Styles called me interrupting my thoughts and I looked at him innocently.

"Yes sir?"I asked him.

"Its a very pretty dress you're wearing. Not in any dirty, you wear it well"He said nicely and that was the first time Mr Styles, my boss has made me blush. Calm your tits girl!

"Thank you sir"I said shyly.

We came out of the elevator when it reached the parking, I was going to my car spot but I felt a wrist hold me back. What?

"Sir im going to get my car"I told him and he shook his head for no, I smiled because when he did that, his hair was flying , wow.

"No missy, you're coming with me in my car."He said as matter of fact tone. Really sir really?

"But I cant leave my car here"I said and he chuckled as he took out his phone from his pocket to call someone.

"Hey Matt could please come down in the parking quick?"He asked to someone I presumed Matt on the phone and he put his phone back to his pocket. Quickly after, a man came to us and shook Mr Styles'hand.

"Matt could you drop Miss D'Souza to her place please?"I couldnt believe what he asked, he gave my car for someone to drop it at my appartment. Seriously?

"But he doesnt know where I live"I said and both smiled at me. What? What did I miss?

"Here's your address"Mr Styles showed me his phone and I had my eyes wide opened when I saw he saved my address in his notes. Not only mine, everyone that worked in the company.

"Oh"Was all I could say and I gave my car key to the man named Matt and he went to get into my car.

"Don't worry, he drives safe. Now lets go"My boss assured me and now he opened the door of the passenger seat letting me get in, I didn't know he could be the gentleman type. I got in and he closed the door and quickly got in the driver seat. We both put our seatbelts on and he started driving.

"Where are we going?"I asked him and he smiled. What a beautiful smile! Ok that's enough.

"You'll see"He said and I rolled my eyes . It wasnt a date or anything so why a surprise. Maybe he was a Mr Surprise, well he was full of it that I agree.

"Please tell me not a nightclub"I said and he laughed a lot.

"I would love that but its a little too early for that, its only 4:30 pm. And dont worry I wont take you to such places, even if you're very much tempting"He said and I covered my face with my hand as I started blushing.

"Good"I said as I was out of words. Later, he stopped the car in a corner, we both got down the car and I followed him to a very classy french cafe. Oh no, you know what this means, it was expensive. He was not gonna spend so much on me. I would enjoy it if I would come here with whoever was my boyfriend, that would be nice but definitely not my boss.

"You coming?"He interrupted my thoughts as he walked in front , I showed him a normal smile nodding and walked with him in the french cafe.

We sat at a table for two, I looked around and it was only people as rich as Mr Styles, I started to have that inferior feeling but I forgot about it when I remembered I just graduated as an honourable student and I was now working at the world's best company.

One day, mom and I will be like them.

"So tell about you"Mr Styles said as he was opposite of me.

"What do you want to know about me? You have my profile with everything"I said and he smiled more. Can he stop doing that please?

"I dont want to know you from a paper, I want to know you through you, the real you"He said and I froze for a second.

Trying to be cheesy now?

"Well as you know Im Melanie, I just graduated from Oxford as an honourable student. I live here with my mother. I love chocolate, red roses, Im a very girly girl..." I said casually not knowing what to tell my boss, I didn't expect him to smile widely like he was really interested.

"What about your father?"He asked softly and my small smile faded hearing about dad.

"He died when I was 10! Flight crashed. Mom is my only family I got left, she's everything to me"I said and he looked sad.

"Im sorry. So you're taking care of your mom, paying the bills..."He said and I nodded slowly.

"You could say that, but Im still a baby, mom takes care of me , she cooks, she prepares everything to me, I do help her but sometimes she insists me not to do some chores. Im still mommy's baby"I said smiling a little and he chuckled smiling more than me.

"Good girl, stay strong Melanie. Im here for you"He said and I raised my eyebrow making him laugh. OMG that laugh, stop it!

"Hmm thanks?"I said nervously. Since did he care? Wait did he care? Really? Could he?

"Excuse me can I take your order?"A waitress came and asked while giving us two menu cards. What was the lowest price?

"Black coffee and a blueberry muffin please. Melanie, choose anything don't feel shy, its on me"Mr Styles said and turned to me. On him? Woah woah woah Im choosing simple then, plus Im not really hungry.

"Just a black coffee please"I said and the waitress noted down in her small notepad. Mr Styles looked at me surprised.

"Thats it? Are you sure?"He asked me and I nodded.

"Yes sir"I said confidently then the waitress left to the counter.

"Except my innapropriate behaviour at work, do you like your job here?"He asked me and I laughed a little.


"Yes and glad you knew the one thing I didn't like."I said and it was his turn to laugh.

"Well be glad that I wont do that anymore. "He said and I smiled. He better hold on to that.

"If you don't mind asking, do you have a girlfriend?"I asked nervously the question which I needed the answer desperately. When I asked that, I wasn't the only one who was nervous.


"Hmm no, I don't date Melanie. I just don't, my company is everything. I screwed with my assistants but it was purely physical. But dont worry, you're an exception."He said and I was frozen in place , he didn't date, oh oh my chances with him was gone. Oh shut up.

"How am I an exception sir?"I asked him and he held my hand in his large one looking at me intensively in the eyes.

"One, you're special and two, out of work call me Harry, beautiful"He said.
