Shit....
I was going to be late I told myself as I slid into my black stilleto. This was bad, very bad. Not a good first impression for my new boss and from what I had heard he was a real pain in the ass. I slipped on my blue blazer and made my way downstairs and out of the building into the busy street of New York.
I hailed a cab and jumped into it, I didn't wait to get my change from the cab driver as I rushed into the office building. I raced to catch up with the elevator and saw a guy in it, I didn't bother to look at him much as my mind raced back to why I had woken up late.
My name is Grace. I had worked hard to get to where I was today, so you could imagine my shock when I found out the company I had worked hard for all these years hadn't chosen me to be the branch director instead they had given the job to another jerk whom I was going to be meeting with today. Being in my position wasn't easy and I knew a number if men at work who would agree with that, but this isn't a mans world and besides I was capable, that's why I had been chosen. Yesterday my friends had decided to come over to my place for a girls night. I had taken too much alcohol even stayed up late, so when the alarm rang I hadn't heard a thing so here I was now, late for work. And my new boss was going to be around today and I didn't want to give him a bad first impression.
I turned to look at the guy next to me and caught him staring, not at my face but my chest. I coughed to let him know I was watching and he didn't bother to look at me "excuse me" I said angrily and this time he responded by turning to look me in the eyes.
I almost swallowed my words when I looked him straight in the eyes, he had this deep brown eye that intimidated you. But I refuse to be intimidated especially by a guy.
"What are you staring at" I said
"Your breast. You have very beautiful breast" he replied as he turned his attention to his phone. I looked at my chest in shock and was surprised to see the first four buttons of my shirt open. Fuck.....I had practically walked out of the house half naked. This was the reason I didn't drink.
"Well you shouldn't have stared, you should have said something asshole" I said angrily, I didn't wait to hear what he had to say as the elevator door opened at my floor and I got out

I was in shock. She had just called me an asshole, I stood in the elevator with my mouth open.
I had a rough night. I had stayed up all night preparing for today's meeting, and my flight this morning from California to new York had been stressful. I'd love nothing more than a cup of coffee. I was just thinking of my coffee in the elevator when this black haired girl walks in. I hadn't been able to look at her properly as she had practically all her shirts buttons open, she had very beautiful breast. I was about to say something when I heard her coughing, I waited wanting to hear what she had to say. "Excuse me" she said. Her voice, soft and sweet and I wanted to see the face it belonged to. I looked up at the face and was shocked to see I had been standing next to a very beautiful woman. She had long black hair that seemed to stop in the middle of her back, I was suddenly tempted to run my hands through it. Her oval face was beautiful, she had very big Brown eyes and a nose that fit her face perfectly. The real temptation was her lips, they were perfect, not big not small and full. I was shocked when that same mouth called me an asshole. I sighed and stepped out of the elevator. I hadn't slept last night and here I was about to meet my new co workers. I almost hated my dad for sending me down here. I just hope my co workers didn't go around calling people assholes

I had raced to the restroom when I got out of the elevator. I still had a few minutes I told myself as I quickly did my make up and packed my hair in a ponytail, I had to look as business like as possible. I didn't want to be giving the new director the wrong impression. I looked myself one last time in the mirror and made sure my buttons were all closed before leaving the restroom. I headed straight to the office greeted my Secretary.
"Good morning ma'am. Mr Richard wells is waiting inside"
Oh shiit. I was late, that wasn't good at all. I smiled and thanked her and opened the door to the office. I saw him standing staring out of my window with his back to me.
"Good morning Mr wells" I greeted as I moved closer so as to offer him my hand for an handshake. He turned to look at me. I stood there staring straight into the same eyes I had been mesmerized by in the elevator. This time they looked amused.
"Good morning Miss Brooks" he said as he took my outstretched hand.
Oh shiit, shiit....... I had called my new boss an asshole
