All Chapters of Just My Type: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

Our company had just brought in a new boss.He kept us working late every single day.As his secretary, I could not leave until he did, so I always stayed back later than the rest of the office. I bought a brand new keyboard and mouse set to cheer myself up. They were both limited editions!I gently ran my fingers over them before starting to type like crazy. I was going to pound all my frustration into those keys!I wanted to beat the keys into submission!Out of nowhere, a message popped up on my screen from my boss, Shane Lawson.Shane: [Bring me a pack of tissues.]I clenched my teeth.'Can't he grab his own tissues?'Is he actually incapacitated, or is he just too lazy to move?' I wondered.Biting back my annoyance, I grabbed some tissues and headed into his office.Shane was half-asleep at his desk, looking all hot and bothered.Was he sick?Was he feeling bad?I set the tissues down on his desk."Mr. Lawson, you really should look after yourself."I was about t

I was stunned by what I was seeing.No, this could not be happening!"Mr. Lawson, you seem a bit overwhelmed."I was getting pretty overwhelmed too, honestly."Be quiet!"I finished the document as fast as I could.When I looked up again, Shane had given in to exhaustion.He was crying.Even though he was always so demanding, it was hard not to feel sorry for him as I watched him sobbing.I held him gently. "It's okay. Everything's going to be alright."His voice was strained.

I planned to take it home.Maybe distance would make him unsync with the keyboard.If I kept my distance, Shane would probably be all right.Shane fell asleep the moment he got in the car, exhausted from a long day.He slept soundly while I wa

"He can't do much, but he can come to the party with me."I banged my hand on the table. "No, I'll go. Why change your plus one for no reason? I was busy before, but now I'm free."Shane looked at me and gave a small smile. "You don't really mean that."I turned away, silent.At the party, Shane barely touched his wine, so I drank most of it for him.I always drank for two when I was with him.He had never been great at handling his liquor.Some people just did not get it.They had to come over and stir up trouble."Mr. Lawson, do you not like the wine you're being served?"I smiled and gently dismissed the guy. "Mr. Lawson doesn't have a problem with the menu. He's not great with drinks, so I'm drinking for him."However, the guy would not back down."Who do you think you are? I want to drink with Mr. Lawson, not you."I clenched my fists.Why
