Paula pov
I looked up and saw the same guy I met at the interview."Oh my, Mr Daniel. Its such a surprise to see you here." I smiled at him." same here , so you got the job" he said with a warm smile." well yeah , obviously. But how and why are you here? I mean. It was only one spot we all applied for,” I took a sip of my coffee.he puts his hands in his pockets and was grinning at me."I got offered another job in my field of study. It turns out the bad boss isn't as bad as they make him out to be.""Ah, I'll disagree there, I work for him. He is as bad as they say and this is my first day." he chuckles. I noticed he is really boyishly handsome.I could get used to his smiles, damn it"Well, you work for him. And you have the final say I can't argue with you" he said helping himself to a cup of coffee."Well, Mr Daniel. What's your first name? That day at the interview I didn't catch it" I turned to him with my coffee in hand." Cole milady, Cole Daniels" he reached out for my hand and I accepted the his hand." Paula rayes, i would love to catch up with you. But I got a very blue boss upstairs." We both laughed." see you around paula" he turned and left with his coffee.Now that's how you call my name. My arrogant boss should take lessons from him.I walked back to my sad space. I was humming as I usually do when my spirit gets lifted a little bit. My coffee, donut and cole did just that.I was shocked to see my boss sitting on my desk with a file in his hands. What got me more shocked was how amazing he looked. Christ somebody get this man an air conditioner, He's just too hot.Right now I think I need it more. I'm so red from being hot. And I literally mean my cheeks. He gets me so flushed."What are you holding paula , coffee and donut? This is not a restaurant stop eating and stop humming its annoying. Less pleasure more work, get things done around here.""I'I'I j'j'just w'went to get coffee" there I go, scared of him. even after all this years. I still stutter. ."I'I'I' don't care paula." He mocked.And it stunk like a bee."This are the papers Mr Rex is supposed to sign giving the company permission to display the paintings. I don't care how you do it but I want his signature on them. First thing on Wednesday I want it on my desk before I arrive" he stood up from my desk."But sir, I don't know this painter. I haven't even met him, I don't know his reasons for refusing to sign , how can I just make that happen? With such short notice too" I said breathlessly. He is being unrealistic, how will I get someone to sign something he has been refusing to sign for months?"The faster you get to work the better, if you can't get that signature then don't bother showing up at work. I suggest you start looking for a job since you are not competent enough" he walked past me and went down the stairs.I couldn't believe my ears nor eyes. He's just trying to fire me. I walked back to my desk to gather myself. I sat on my chair and rested my head on the desk. Its just my first day .I just got this job , I need it, my fashion house. My parents . my apartment with Olivia. There's no room for weakness right now. How do you get tired after just a day?I'll let him win if I don't try. I lifted my head from desk and got prepared to prove him wrong. I am competent.Even though its impossible , I have to give it a try. I had to do some investigating on this painter guy.I checked through the company files , histories , g****e and boom. I not only got his history in details but also his address. Let's pay him a visit tomorrow.I don't know how I'll ever pull this but I have to try.I only have one day. Just Tuesday. That's tomorrow.I got back to work, desperately waiting for my closing time , which is by the way 8pm. He makes us work like hell but the pay, now that's great motivation. The pay will keep you going though.I packed my bag once it was closing time and headed out. I didn't want to spend a second there.I needed home . he didn't show up after dropping the bomb on me and frankly I don't care. He can go jump off a cliff for all I care.Okay not literally but whatever.I got home and literally fell on the couch."Olivia , I need a massage. I'm gonna pass out girl" Olivia came rushing in from the room."Smile!" Olivia screamed. I looked up to see what she was up to and the crazy face took a picture of me with her camera."Oh my God, Olivia you better delete that I look like hell right now."She giggled. " no, no girl, first day of work. We gotta have a picture. But you do look like hell" she came and started massaging my neck and I adjusted myself to lay my head on her lap."Work was shitty" I sighed in pleasure. God Olivia was good with this massage thingy."Fill me in pea" Olivia laughed.And I did just that. I filled her in on my whole day starting from the girls at the elevator."Those girls should thank their stars, I would have broken one in two. Some girls can be so rude. I'm no saint but I don't go around bullying people and you certainly don't" she was annoyed now.She never disappoints."And your boss you should have shoved the papers up his ass. Making you do something he can't even do. He's just a jerk. I like the fact you not giving up though, ethan is still the same horrible goblin. " she smiled at me."I know right. I just hope I do it right. I would love to see the look on his face." We both laughed.Thankfully Olivia made my favorite for dinner , spaghetti and meat balls with salad. I literally rushed to take a shower so I can have my one true love in my mouth.I tossed and turned all night thinking and thinking. At this rate I'm gonna come down with a fever. God I hate him so much but it's all in my head. I fell asleep thinking of him and woke up to oli tearing my head with her screams."Get up paula, you'll be late" Olivia screamed yet again. I should just muzzle that girl but I can't I need her."I'm coming" I dragged myself up from bed , took a shower and got dressed.Dressed in a brown long skirt , paired with a white turtle neck. Brown two inches boots and a white bag. Soon enough I was in the kitchen with paula having breakfast and off I went to my doom.I took the elevator to the last floor, which is the top floor. The usual stares , which I honestly don't get."Morning beautiful" Cole smiled at me. God he is really cute. One new friend , maybe this place wouldn't be so bad after all."Morning cole," i smiled back still walking but slowly now."You really look great, you got a personal stylist or something?" I rolled my eyes."Is this some old pick up line?" I said jokingly."Well , what if it is" he said winking and walked back to his office.I smiled sheepishly.Honestly that made my day.Well, focusing on the task ahead. I have to fix some work here then head out in search for Rex , in hopes of him signing the papers. God help me.I started to put some work in place when my high and mighty boss arrived.I stood up to greet and l know he'll ignored but I can't just let him go without greeting. He is the boss after all."Morning. Mr Andres." I said calmly.Today he was wearing a grey suit and he is looking as dashing as ever. He just walked into his office as usual without even nodding. Its the least of my problems now though .I stood up to go tell him I'm leaving to go meet Rex.Which is a total bump move, I don't even have an appointment with Mr Rex. I'm just going to show up at his house and literally beg him to sign. That's the plan.I knocked on his door lightly. "Come in"I stepped in. Walking slowly stopping my boots from making a sound.He makes me so scared. I stood meekly inches away from his desk."Sir, I'm headed out to go find Mr Rex , so I can get the papers signed."He just nodded and waved me off with the back of his hands , like I was trash.I just walked quietly out of his office grabbed my bag and headed out on a stupid plan that was meant to fail from the start.Ethan POVWatching her walk away from my office made me hard. That beautiful ass walking away , its just the highlight of the day.She's just so beautiful, blonde beautiful hair, brown almost golden eyes, curvy body , perfect small face. She's a goddess that's the only way to describe her.She has me wrapped around her fingers,Throughout highschool she had me . but she doesn't need to know that. She'll never know.I have to believe I have enough self control but watching her today. Its a bad idea letting her work here.Paula POVHonestly, If I don't get rex to sign this papers. I might just kill my boss if he fires me. This is totally stupid. I had to go all the way to the Bronx and in this unpredictable weather. Thank God I got my umbrella it might just decide to pour at any time. I got to Mr, Rex apartment or so I think. After much running around I think I got it. It was a tall building with apartments , much like the one me and Olivia occupy in Brooklyn. I got in and headed to the front desk. "Morning , can I please know the apartment Mr rex is staying in. I'm here to give him some papers" I said. I made it seem like I knew rex. Well you have to make it seem that way or else, she's going to ring him and I might just be thrown out." She smiled. "Fifth floor , the first door to your right." I smiled back. "Thank you kate" she looked surprised. I pointed at her chest at her ID card. Realization washed on her face and she nodded with a smile. I took the elevator to the fifth door. My palm was
Paula POVIts been two weeks working for Ethan. I managed to ignore him all through, but it didn't stop my heart from jumping whenever he's close to me. My heart flutters Evey time I stare at him and it's unhealthy. We've been frequenting the site for over a week now. It turns out they are planning on opening a mall. The car ride with him is just unbearable, I can tell even the workers can't wait to get him out of their hairs. A crazy incident happened last week and it left the workers scared of Ethan. The engineer was flirting with me during work hours, it was so little; just hinting I was beautiful and Ethan tagged it as inappropriate. Fired him on the spot. He was willingly to pay money to buy the engineer out of the contract. I felt guilty because he was fired because he was complimenting me. For a chubby girl that is like catching lightening. Someone getting fired for admiring you; crazy. Olivia travelled to Spain for a movie shoot leaving me all alone at home with my thou
Paula POVI woke up extremely early which is actually a first for me, thoughts of Ethan made me restless all night. I hate the jerk for affecting me so much. Every thick girl has to have a thick skin. But with Ethan I don't think I got any skin at all.What was his trauma, curiosity almost killed me because I landed the worst headache; after thinking for so long. Ethan was perfect, I mean he appeared to be, so what is it? I decided to video call Olivia, I missed her so much , it gets lonely around here. I don't have friends anyway except from Clara and I don't need a gym instructor right now. I grabbed my laptop and made my way to the kitchen counter. I ringed her up a few times and she finally answered. She was holding her bed sheet up her body and slightly running with the laptop. "You hooked up with someone right?" I giggled. She just kept running like a ninja and nodded mischievously. "The dildo wasn't doing the trick anymore, I needed the real deal" she winked and I fake gagg
Ethan's POV I thought I could handle working with Paula, I thought I could control myself but its impossible. Everything about her turns me on. Her walk, her smell, her sexy eyes. I have to push her away and I feel terrible. I didn't care what anyone thought of me before , I still don't care but with Paula I care. I left her in one of my rooms, totally wet and inviting. She was so delicious to look at . I imagine myself fucking her every time I see her, feelings never change. Everything I felt for her in highschool just got intensified. I grabbed my sweatpants and a shirt. This should fit her. I walked back in the room and knocked on the door.A faint voice invited me in. Oh Paula how that voice would sound screaming my name or moaning. I shook my head getting rid of those dirty thoughts as I opened the door. She was standing staring at me with her hands by her side. She was like a little girl who was caught doing something wrong. I loved how I towered her. I affected her I know
Paula POV"Honestly it was crazy oli, my lady was really wet and he just bolted away from me. Like, like I was some kind of disease" I sighed sitting on the couch. I had a long night thinking about yesterday. A long shower and now dressed for work I'm still talking about Ethan. "This is some juicy news, Ethan kissed you?, romanced you and all. I think the world is coming to an end!!!!" Oli screamed through the phone. I shifted the phone away from my ears while she continued talking gibberish. "He totally likes you," " slow down oli, he doesn't like me, maybe he just needed a way to pass time, or maybe he was high on drugs. He was sick after all. " "Well true, and he left after the make out. He is a total douche bag " oli fired. "I know right, and I have decided to stop my heart from racing so hard when he is near. He can't treat me like a slut. I will try to shut him out." I grabbed my bag and left the apartment. "Ouu, my baby is in love" oli mocked me. "Oh please its not love
Paula POV "Oh please , she will look good in anything. Paula is a queen.”Olivia shouted. "I am not saying she’s not ;what is wrong with you Olivia? What is your problem?" Clara fired back. "You. you are the problem, my problem. She can attend the party with a bikini, its a pooool partyyyyyy" oliva stressed. I sighed watching the both of them go back and forth picking the clothes I'm going to wear to the party. Its exhausting, this past few days has been terrible. I have bags under my eyes. Literally. At home I had to deal with this two and at work I avoided Ethan like a plague but it still didn't help I wanted him in every way. "Okay okay, let's say she doesn't wear the bikini but then this sexy white dress should do" Olivia held up a dress she bought for me recently. Clara sighed in victory and nodded. Smirking Olivia picked up a black jacket she wanted me to wear " then she'll top it up with this" she wriggled her brows at me , earning a smile from me. Clara nodded in appro
Paula POV I don't know how my body did it but I slept despite the thunderous thoughts that plagued my mind. Last night was everything I never expected and more , it was still wrecking because I was still confused and battered. I rushed home after the confusing collision with Ethan. My cheeks heat up just thinking of what he did to me last night. I wanted more and it freaked me out! He is engaged for crying out loud. And a total jerk for messing with my head. If he does feel something like he hinted about then he wouldn't still be engaged. I'm so frustrated!Thank God Clara was asleep when I arrived yesterday, so I easily told Olivia the story. I would tell Clara but it would be so much stress explaining to her from the start. Olivia totally waited for me to arrive. She was however excited; saying he has feelings for me and I got a headstart but I just don't see it. Although she couldn't figure out why he was acting this way towards me; the kid bullied me before. Its clear I'm into h
Paula POVHe did it.He announced his engagement, I felt my heart skip a beat as soon as the question was asked, after he confirmed it tears welled up in my eyes causing my vision to go blurry. I felt my cheeks burn immediately he walked into the mall, I hurriedly joined the crowd as they rushed in controlling my tears, I knew they were engaged but knowing its official makes my lungs hurt. I had to control myself talking with some board members and Rex, I couldn't afford to break down in front of them.Now I'm in his car headed to his home and I was still clueless. What's wrong with him?, why are we going to his home?,I know I did nothing wrong , so why was I going to his place. I stared at him using the side of my eyes, he was looking straight ahead with his fist clenched on his laps. He was surprisingly calm with a dangerous aura around him, making me shiver. He looked like he was trying to restrain himself , I wanted to ask why I was going to his house but I stopped myself when
