I was paranoid of leaving things behind, or begin unprepared, I like to keep things very organized, because if not then I slowly start to fall apart

Like in this case, only im hastily falling apart

"Hey , hey," Lucas called, as he took my hands in his "dont stress, I take it you have a certain way of getting things ready?" He asks

I nod slowly trying to calm my nerves "I get it I'm like that too, why dont I help you after we eat" he suggests, as he smiled at me reassuringly

If it was anyone else, I wouldve pulled away and returned to preparing my things, but instead I let out a sigh of defeat, I was hungry, and honestly I could use the help, and I was also a bit embarrassed of my reaction

So much of being a mature person

After I calmed down a bit, he brought our food, which happened to be Chinese takeout, which I happily ate, I didnt realize how hungry I was untill the aroma hit my nose

"I didnt realize how prepared you like being" he commented as we ate our food

"Its not about being just prepared but also organized" I corrected "when everything is jumbled up it becomes really hard to find and overall just tedious to deal with, so I like to organize my things beforehand"

"I get it, either I organize my calendar, things, papers, or my secretary does" he replied letting out a low laugh "I probably drive her crazy, I give her a index, a strict rubic to follow, to rearrange everything just as I prefer"

I couldnt help but let out a chuckle "really? All that?"

"I organize my work the way I organize everything I could possibly organize in my life, and if I have a different system for something than everything starts getting mixxed up, and messes with my day"

I nodded in understanding, I was impressed that he cared about how his life his organized "I'm sorry for the way Ive been treating you ever since you got her" I say sincerely, looking up at him to watch his reaction

He stared at me baffled "you dont need to say sorry" he said with a smile "whats with the sudden apology though, out of curiosity"

"Since we are to be working along side one another, I think it's important that we establish a relationship that doesn't include any bad vibes"

"A relationship you say" he smirks, grinning to ear to ear, my eyes widen in shock and embarrassment, heat rising to my face, but I quickly blinked it away

"A friendship" I corrected, glaring at him coldly, trying to keep any snark remarks I wanted to say "Im sure as someone like yourself can remain professional during our time together?" i asked him with a raised brow, crossing my arms

With an enigmatic smile he replied "Im not the one you have to be worried about not being professional"

"What that suppose to me" I asked cooly as I glared

"Who knows" he teases "now lets start getting you packed and ready"

I decided not to pry on the comment, we were to leave in a few hours so I needed to get packed and arguing with him was just wasting time "Do you mind organizing my folders by colors, and words documents by alphabetical order, portfolios by date, and untitled documents in just a plan brown folder"

He let out a low laugh shaking his head

"what?" I asked hotly crossing my arms

"We have the same system that's all"

"And how is that funny"

"Thats my little secret" he replied with a wink "if the way u organize your clothes is the same way you organize your work I will be more than happy to do your clothes too"

"Perv"

"Its your effect on" he gushes

What game is this man playing
