IN BED WITH THE BOSS 7
Scott just stared at her. Part of him wanted to ask her how her brain actually functioned, but he already knew the answer to that. Elizabeth didn't care about anything or anyone. She only listened to herself and whatever she thought was true, she took as fact. Nothing anyone said mattered to her. Did she really think that he'd slept with the waitress? “I do not have the time for this, Elizabeth,” he said, as he opened his briefcase, hoping that she'd just go away. His wish didn't come true. "Of course you don't, but you had enough time for her" Elizabeth fired back. Her voice was getting louder and Scott knew that he had to put a stop to it. "For God's sake," he drawled. "Do you really think so little of me that you'd believe that I would just sleep with a waitress who snuck into my room? What the hell do you take me for, Elizabeth? A man who has so little control over his body? Is that really how you see me?" Elizabeth folded her hands around her body as she glared at him. From

"Hello," Vivian said awkwardly, wondering who it was. "Well, hello to you too, Miss Sanchez" Vivian wasn't sure whose voice she expected to hear, but it certainly wasn't the deep, baritone one she heard on the other line. Even without him introducing himself, she knew exactly who it was and a shiver went down her spine. "This is Scott McCall" he continued. Vivian shook her head, trying to concentrate. "Well… urmmm… yes…. I… urmmm…. I noticed. Good afternoon, sir" she said nervously. She heard him chuckle. "You recognized my voice?" he asked, sounding as if he couldn't believe it. "Well, that's flattering. I must have made quite an impression on you, am I right?" Vivian didn't reply. She didn't know what to say as a reply because she didn't even know if the question was rhetorical. Also, her tongue was tied up in her mouth. She was thinking hard too… wondering why he was calling her. Was something wrong? Had he decided to arrest her for sneaking into his room? Her head was spinni

Scott McCall studied her for a few seconds before he replied. "You're welcome, and that's fine. The vacancy opened up quite suddenly and I need a replacement urgently. Well, you already told me that you were interested, so I gave it a shot" "I completely understand, sir," Vivian replied. "And I'm still very grateful. Can I get you something to drink or eat?" Scott looked around. "Yeah, I guess so. I haven't really been here before so I don't know what the food is like, so I guess I should trust you. What do you recommend?" Vivian actually blushed. "Ermmm, the cheesecake is really great….and it would go well with a glass of white wine." Scott nodded. "That sounds perfect" he said, "I'll have that…" "Great. I'll be back soon" Vivian said, and almost ran out of the restaurant. As she turned to leave, Scott took the opportunity to take a good look at her. Never in his life had he looked at a waitress in her uniform and thought that she looked sexy, but that was all he could think of

Vivian nodded, making a mental note of the many things she had to do. She wanted a job, and now she had it. First, she he had to talk to her manager about moving her shifts to evening. She had to go shopping for some office clothes. Get her hair done… buy groceries since she wouldn't have time to cook as much… the list seemed endless. "Yes, tomorrow is fine," she agreed. She didn't want to give him the chance to hand this position to someone else. She knew that he was doing this mostly as a favor… and why he was doing it, she had no idea. "Great. You should be at the office by 8am. You will organize my emails, my calendar and itinerary. You will also be handling some of my projects so time management is also very important. Also, please bring a copy of your CV with you tomorrow. I would like to have a look at it."Vivian nodded." I'll be there " she said,"I cannot thank you enough for this" Scott waved his hand. "That's alright," he said, "And if we're thanking each other, then I s

Vivian never knew her mother as she had died when she was little. She had been raised by her father, and when he died four years ago, Vivian had felt so alone. She had some distant relatives, but they were really far away, and Vivian didn't really feel as if she knew them. Megan had become her family and that was enough for her. She grabbed her handbag and the file which contained the documents Scott had requested to see, and said goodbye to Megan. "Please lock up for me" she said, "I don't want to be late so I have to hurry. Don't forget to keep my key on top of the light bulb outside" "Sure," Megan replied. "Goodluck" And so with her heart beating with excitement and nervousness, Vivian drove to her new workplace. —-----------Vivian drove her small car into Creative Edge construction company premises and stared in awe. She had known that it was a big company. She had even seen pictures of it when she was doing her numerous research about the company before coming up with the r

Scott's eyes scanned every inch of her like laser beams. His eyes took in her suit jacket and skirt, her handbag, down to her shoes. Then slowly, they returned to her face."You're early," he said, "And that's good. Sit down,"Vivian went to one of the chairs in front of his desk with a casualness she didn't feel. She sat down and resisted the urge to cross her legs, reminding herself that this was an office and not the restaurant she was used to. She dropped her hand bag beside her. Her ponytail hung across her shoulder.There was a brief silence for a few seconds while Scott worked on his laptop while Vivian took the opportunity to look around the spacious, expensive looking office. Suddenly he sprawled in the desk chair and rested his head against its high back. The movement brought Vivian's attention back to him. He had a very intense way of staring, she thought as blood beat against her skull. Her hands tightly grasped the arms of the chair as she waited for him to speak."I don'

"Us?" Vivian repeated, and Betty nodded. "Yeah. Just me and some other staff. There's Linda, George, and Michael. Come on, I'll introduce you to everyone." "Okay, but what if Mr McCall needs me?""Then he'll call you" Betty replied, "but I doubt he will. He knows you should be having lunch right now."Vivian smiled and stood up. "Well, in that case let's go. I'm starving." ____________Vivian had never worked in a place so big before, and she couldn't help looking around. The cafeteria was big enough to contain the large number of staff members and Vivian followed Betty as she pointed out some places and people. After they got their lunch, they moved to a table with three people already sitting in it. The lady among them simply stared at her while the young men smiled at Vivian. "Oh, who's the newbie?" the lady asked. "The new assistant I told you about yesterday, duh" Betty replied as she took a seat. "Don't tell me you have forgotten so early. What the hell do you do with that

"Oh… ermmm… I just wanted to let you know that I was leaving and I wanted to make sure you didn't need anything else" she stammered. He nodded. "Oh, that's fine. I'm good. You can leave. Good night, Miss Sanchez" "Good night, Mr McCall" Vivian replied and turned to go. "Miss Sanchez," Scott called and Vivian turned around again, her hands on the doorknob. "You did great for your first day. Well done." Vivian smiled shyly, hoping that he wouldn't see how red her cheeks had become. "Thank you, sir" she said, then hurriedly opened the door and almost ran out of the room. __________"Ohhh…. The office lady is here" Megan said playfully when Vivian came into the restaurant. Vivian smiled. "Move out of my way, I'm late" she said as she hurried past her to the ladies room to change into her uniform. Her shift would last only four hours, before they closed for the day. She was tired, but she still needed to keep this job. When she finally came out, Megan was waiting. "What?" "Come on,
