Any potential there? “Should we still proceed with the one scheduled for this evening?” Rosalie sat down on the sofa in the lounge area. Ever attentive, Mandy quickly poured a glass of water for her boss.

It doesn’t matter what Ross said, they weren’t on a break. “Come, I have a surprise for you.” Holding out my hand, she took it thankfully. Her face matched her emotions of confusion. “We are going to your office?” The hesitance in her voice was clear. “It’s all locked up and secure.” Smiling at her. “Close your eyes.” Holding my hands over her eyes to make sure she wasn’t peaking, we slowly made our way inside my office.

Instead of heading to Blaze’s office as usual, I went straight to the finance department, burying myself in work and praying he wouldn’t find me. But of course, luck was not on my side. A knock on the door snapped me out of my thoughts. I snapped my head from the documents I was reviewing. “Come in,” I called before I could stop myself. Asking would have been better.

Tara laughs at something, the sound suddenly grating on my nerves along with the camera flashes, the loud shouts, and the demands. “Are you two dating?” Someone shouts, reaching out for me. I dodge the woman’s hand and carefully grab Tara by the arm. “Let’s go to my office,” I tell her, and she looks up at me. “Really?
