Chapter Twenty Five - Strange behaviour

It has been a few days since yet another bust-up with the boss, but he has been overly pleasant since then. Not only to me but to everyone, and I think they were all wondering what was going on with him. But I am sure they prefer Gabe being this way than a total dickhead!
He and I had been spending nearly every night together outside of work. I mean hanging out, nothing more. We have dinner, chat, watch a movie, and then he leaves. I wasn’t sure what I thought about it all. We haven’t even had sex, and he hasn’t tried, neither have I. Things have turned a little strange, for sure, but we still seemed to be enjoying our time together.
I was currently in my office doing some work. Gabe wasn’t in today, so it gave us all a chance to catch up with some other work other than the MV campaign. Gabe had meetings today, but he would be back tomorr

Gabe “Gabe, I need to get back to the office,” Aubrey giggled as I attacked her neck with kisses.“Call in sick,” I huffed.“Yes, because that wouldn’t look suspicious at all,” she laughed.It was true. Her lunch break was nearly over. I had to get back to my meetings, but I would rather stay in bed with Aubrey for the rest of the day.“Fine,” I pouted.I pecked her lips and removed myself from on top of her. Aubrey pulled herself out of bed to get herself cleaned up, not wanting to go back to work smelling of sex and shame. Not so much shame, but if anyone found out, there would be shame attached to it.“Are you just going to stay naked in my bed all day?”Aubrey chuckled as she came back through.

Aubrey Tonight was dinner with my cousin and husband. I was starting to regret asking Gabe to join me. This was a terrible idea! My cousin was a gossip. What if she mentions it to the rest of the family? How do I get myself out of this one? Maybe he shouldn’t come.I grabbed my phone and called him. He would be here in about an hour. It only rang a couple of times before he answered.“Hey, gorgeous,”“Hey, so I have been thinking. I don’t know if tonight is such a good idea,” I said softly.“How come?”“Because my cousin has a big mouth. She will end up telling the rest of the family, and then any family even they will expect me to show up with you,”“So, what is the problem?” he chuckled.&ldqu

Gabe I became a little nervous as our cab arrived at the restaurant, but I wasn’t going to show that to Aubrey because she was worried enough right now, without me adding to it. I paid the fare, and we got out of the cab to head inside. I slipped my arm around her waist. “You ready for this?” Aubrey asked. “Hell yeah,” I grinned. Her cousin Isabella and her husband Tobin were already here. We glanced around when we entered. Why I found the need to do so, I don’t know because I have no clue what they look like. “There they are,” she said. She nodded in the direction of where they were. I looked over and saw a well-dressed couple, her cousin was a pretty blonde woman, and her husband was a good-looking guy. They seemed to match well. Aubrey led us over to the table. “Aubrey!

AubreyGabe and I arrived at his. I was drunk! Isabella was the same. She was worse than me. We called it a night because she was sick. Up until then, it had been a good night, and we had arranged for us all to meet tomorrow for lunch before they go back home.“Do you have any drink in the house?” I asked.“I think you have had enough, babe,” he chuckled.“Why do you always call me that? I don’t know if you even realise that you are doing it?”“I had to play my part,” he replied.“But you have called me it multiple times before tonight,”I was curious, and because I was drunk, it made me more curious than usual.“Dunno,” he shrugged.“I d
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Thirty - Did I do the right thing?
Gabe I had been lying awake for the last half an hour, staring at my ceiling. Aubrey was sound asleep and snoring next to me. I wondered if what I said to her last night about officially dating was the right thing to do. Yes, I was a little drunk, but not wasted enough to blame what I said on my drunken ass. I turned my head to look at her and sighed. She was beautiful, and I liked her more than I should, more than I ever believed I would. But for us dating? Would that even work? I don’t know if working together and dating would be too much.Ahh, I don’t fucking know! I need to work it out, though. Aubrey may not even remember me suggesting it. She was way drunker than I was. She began to stir, so I swiftly diverted my attention away from her. I was expecting her to wake, but instead, she rolled into me and snuggled in. She wrapped her body around mine. I did plan on getting up
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Thirty One - I am an idiot!
Aubrey I don’t know why I got as pissed at Gabe as I did. I should have known he didn’t mean what he said last night. If he never opened his damn mouth, things would be different right now. I would still be in bed with him. I was up for trying to date, and I thought he was too, but now I wonder if this is still all a game to him? When did I even start liking him like this? I know I liked him a lot because if I didn’t, what happened at his wouldn’t be getting to me as much right now.I need a shower, coffee, and more sleep. The cab arrived at my place. I paid him and rushed inside. I stripped down and went straight for the shower. I switched it on and stepped into it. I rested my back on the wall and closed my eyes in the hope that the shower would wash my worries away. I ran my fingers through my hair over my face.We had such a good time last n
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Thirty Two - Lunch date
Gabe I was in a great mood as I made my way to the office. I usually hate Monday’s, but today I was feeling good after the weekend. I sure didn’t expect the weekend to go how it did. I am happy that I grew a pair and went after Aubrey.I came in early on purpose to see Aubrey because she left early this morning. I came with coffee. I knew she was here because she texted me to say. I smiled at everyone as I made my way through the building. They all seemed taken back with it but smiled back.I chuckled to myself and went in the direction of Aubrey’s office. I glanced in and made sure she was alone. I knocked lightly and waited for her to tell me to come. I grinned, opened the door and stepped into her office.“Good morning, beautiful,” I chirped.“Hey, handsome,” she beamed.
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Thirty Three - Distraction
Aubrey I was trying to get ready for my and Gabe’s date, but it wasn’t going well. Why? Because he decided to show up an hour and a half earlier than planned, he won’t leave me alone in the best way possible! “Gabe, how do you expect to get ready with you harassing me?” I giggled. He had been overly needy. I don’t know if that is the right word I am looking for, but he has been sweet and affectionate since the weekend. It was strange seeing him that way, but I liked it. “Sorry, I will behave now, well, if you give me another kiss,” he smirked. “You said that half an hour ago. Then kiss led to us falling into my bed naked, and I had to take another shower, so I am not sure if another kiss is a good idea,” “I promise it will only be a kiss, and then I will go and sit the living room out of your wa

All the desks were in one large open area so everyone could work in the same space. Gabe and I had our office. We had a food bar set up with everything from cereal to candy, plenty of drinks, and there will be fresh food every single day. We wanted to make a space where everyone would be comfortable. Our staff will consist of forty people in total. I couldn’t wait to get started. The place is decorated with blue and white. It was modern in style. It is everything we pictured it to be. Ga

Gabe “Will you please tell me where we are going? You can’t ask a girl to dress up, take her in the car somewhere and not tell her.” Aubrey huffs from next to me. “No, you will find out soon enough. It doesn’t matter how many times you ask. I am not going to tell you.” I reply firmly. “Fine!” she groans. I laugh and shake my head. The woman had no patience. I know once she realises my plan, she will forgive me. I had a special night planned for us. I enjoy spoiling my stunning fiancée. I am still trying to get used to calling Aubrey that, but we have only been engaged a week. I was eager to make my wife, but we didn’t want to hurry things. “We are here.” I smile, finding a parking spot. Aubrey looks around, a confused look on her face. “Why are we at a hotel?” she asked, c

Aubrey “Marry me, Aubrey….”Wait, did I hear him right? Did he just ask me to marry him? I stilled and lifted my head to look at him.“What? Did I hear you right?” I asked, surprised.“Yes. Marry me?” he repeated.Oh My God, I did hear him right. I stood there, just staring at him. I needed a moment to process his words. Where did that come from? I was not expecting it.“Are you being serious?” I stammered out.“Yes. I love you, and I know in my heart you are the one for me. I don’t ever want to be with anyone else, only you, my love….” He trailed off, the nervousness evident in his voice.I love him too, with everything I have in me. I was ready to spend the rest of my life with him, bu

Gabe Aubrey and I had just arrived at the launch party in the limo.“Are you ready for this, my love?” I asked, looking at her.“As ready as I can be.” She smiled.I nodded and kissed her softly. She looked stunning tonight, and a part of me couldn’t wait to show her off to everyone. The limo door opened, and I stepped out first. The place was swimming with the pressed guests walking in, stopping for photos. The place was crazy. I knew it would be a big deal tonight. I just didn’t realise how much of a big deal.I turned around, offered Aubrey my hand. She smiled widely at me, took it, and I helped her out of the car. The moment she saw what awaited outside, she was like a deer in the headlights. She wasn’t used to all of this, not to this extent.“I am right

Aubrey I had dragged Gabe out shopping with me. I was supposed to go with a friend, but she was sick, so I decided that Gabe would take her place, much to his dismay. I was looking for a dress for the launch party next week. Gabe had his outfit, and it took him like ten minutes to find it online. By doing that, he believed he would get out of shopping altogether, but that didn’t go as planned for him.“Please don’t take all day, my love,” he pouted.“I won’t, promise, then maybe we can stop by the lingerie shop,” I smirked.“Mmm, yes, please…” he groaned.I would say that was a good compromise. I knew he would like that idea.“But there is a catch to it,” I smirked, “You can’t complain again about going shopping with me, or

Gabe Aubrey and I have been living together for a couple of weeks now, and it is going great! I love having her there, and I have been happy non-stop since she did.I was at Aubrey’s work today for us all to finish off the project for MV. They were pleased with everything and had won the bid to advertise for them. We only had a couple of minor things left before it went live. It was going to be incredible. I am proud of the team; with us all working together, it had turned out perfectly. Everyone was happy, which was the main thing.I was currently heading into the break room to get a coffee. I noticed a few women who work with the company, but they didn’t notice me coming in.“I still think that is how Aubrey got to work on the project because she is screwing the CEO,” one said.I can’t remember h

Aubrey I was eagerly waiting for Gabe to get back. He should be here soon. I had missed him these last few days. As I thought about him, I heard the front door open.“Hey, sweetness, where you at?” he called out.I grinned to myself, got up from the sofa and went to greet him. He smiled brightly when he saw me approach him. The second I was within arm’s reach, he grabbed me and pulled me to him, kissing me passionately. I moaned, slipped my arms around and kissed him back. He held me tight to his body.We parted after a minute.“I missed you, my love,”“I missed you too,” I replied and kissed him again.He didn’t seem to mind. I missed not only him but his kisses and bedtime cuddles. When we stopped kissing, he pulled me to his chest and h

Gabe I woke with a pounding headache and the hangover from hell! We got back to the hotel at six a.m., and most of last night was a blur. I checked my phone and saw I had called Aubrey in the early hours. It took me a moment, but then I remembered why I called her and that I told her I would call her first thing.I hit the call button on her name. I wasn’t sure if she would answer because I knew she had plans with her friends today, but I wasn’t sure of the time she was leaving. It rang only a couple of times, and then she answered.“Good morning, love. Are you rough?” she giggled.“Morning, sweetheart. Yes, very,” I groaned.“Aww, my poor baby,” she teased.“Come and look after me,”“Nope! No one to blame but yourself, s
Clashing with the CEO Chapter Forty One - One day?
Aubrey Gabe was away for the weekend with a few of his friends for one of their bachelor parties. The wedding was in a couple of weeks, and he asked me to go as his date, to which I agreed. I had plans with my girls tomorrow. We were going for a spa day which I was looking forward to because it has been a busy week.As for Gabe and me, we were keeping it on the down-low for now, well, to the people at work anyway. It is none of their business. The most important people know, and I am sure the time will come everyone at work will find out. But I don’t care. The fact doesn’t even bother me now. What is the worst that can happen? They judge. What is new in this day and age? I have another job to go to if I need to. My personal life has nothing to do with anyone.I was currently in bed, reading. Yes, it sounds boring for a Friday night, but I enjoyed it. I had
