“As if you’ve just cost me “26!” I rolled my eyes at his remark and placed my hand on his leg. He paid and rolled the car forwards to collect the food. “Av don’t not while I’m driving.” His voice faltered as I ran my fingers up the inside of his thigh. “I swear to God Av stop it or I’ll pull over and fuck you in the back of this car.” My eyes widened, my hand stilled and I felt my heart pounding against my chest.
“Oh?” My eyes met his and he cleared his throat and the next window opened and a young girl handed him the food. He placed it on my lap and drove off the car park. I sat and admired him the majority of the way back. Occasionally he’d steal a chip from the bag that was resting on my lap. I loved the way he was able to shut me up within seconds. I loved the way he made my heart race quicker whenever I looked at him. “What have you done today?” I questioned as we drove
“Just the gym and helped Jay out with his paperwork.” I frowned to myself and began to sip my fanta. “I’ve also been thinking about the slimeball you work with and how close he’s been to you.” I laughed slightly and shrugged.
“He hasn’t been that close and I kind of agree he is a slime ball.” I watched as he relaxed slightly and as we drove around the final road that was in the direction of Alfie’s.
“You ready to eat?” I winked at his question and watched as he grinned and shook his head. “You’re filth today Miss Holt.” I chuckled as we pulled up on the drive and I handed the food bags to him before I gathered my flowers from the back of the car.
“How many roses are in here?” He juggled the keys, my bag and the food and I shook my head as I offered to help him out.
“24 I think?” I smiled as I sniffed them again. They smelled so sweet.
“They’re lovely.” I opened the door to see Jay laughing at us.
“You pair decided no fancy lunch then?” I smiled at him broadly and shrugged.
“I didn’t want to go out I just wanted food, bath and to go to sleep and somehow I’ve ended up here.” I watched as Haz made his way towards the kitchen and glanced up at Jay who was in more relaxed wear, his brown eyes looked tired and I reached to hug him. “You look tired?” He nodded and glanced at Haz.
“How was your first day? Freddie Behave?” I snorted in response to his question.
“If by behaving you mean asking me for dinner then yeah, sure he behaved.” I watched him roll his eyes and I followed Harry into the kitchen. He handed me my fries and I began to eat, kicking off my heels and I moaned.
“He asked her out for dinner?” Jay’s voice was tinged with annoyance and I heard Haz huff.
“That he did. But now he knows she’s with me I think he’ll back off.” I turned to face him grinning as he piled yet another load of fries in his mouth and heard a laugh escape Jay’s lips.
“I’m just hoping he doesn’t start being a cock to her.” I took a bite out of my burger. I ran my fingers over the buttons on my shirt and began to undo them. My feet were throbbing. I pulled my blazer off my arms and placed it on the kitchen island.
“You know I am here? I can hear this conversation.” I rolled my eyes and looked towards them both who were now staring. “What?” Jay smirked and shook his head.
“Nothing.” I watched as Haz smacked his chest hard and frowned.
“Stop fucking gorping at her.” I chuckled as I took another bite of my burger and picked up my shoes to take upstairs.
“I’m not gorping!” His innocence wasn’t sinceer and I made my way up towards the bathroom. Where I planned on staying for at least another hour or maybe two.
Friday
The rest of the week had been hell. Freddie had been in a foul mood since he'd been made aware that Harry and I were an item. I got the feeling I was only hired because he wanted to fuck his PA. It wouldn't have surprised me. Mum had been in numerous meetings and my paperwork had been sky high, literally piles of paper on my desk and I was looking forward to not doing much the weekend. I missed Uni. I sighed aloud. Freddie waltzed in my office and dropped a piece of paper on my desk. He was on his mobile phone and was now blocking the wonderful sunset view I'd got out of my office window. I frowned a little as I continued to tap at the keys. He said his goodbyes and watched as he relaxed back in the chair opposite my desk.
"There's a meeting in Manchester next week."
"Who's going?" I instantly questioned.
"You, Della and myself?" I raised my brow.
"I'm surprised the board aren't going if it means we're meeting with another branch?" If I had to go up there with him Haz would have a fit. He wouldn't allow it.
"It's to meet with one of our largest clients, I expect you to be there." He leant forward slightly in his chair and pushed his blonde hair from his face. My stomach churned as he stood up and gave me a wink before he went to leave my office. I didn't trust him. Not for one minute. "Are you up to much the weekend?"
"Not really. I have a dance class at 6 and then I don't think I'll be doing much. Are you doing anything?" I smiled politely when realistically I wanted the throw up in my mouth just looking at him. Fucking slimeball.
"I'll probably go out on Saturday." I smiled and nodded before I collected my
