Hannah

Today I didn't have to rush to get up because last night I set my alarm for six-forty-five so when I woke up I could do one of the few things that calm me down. Running.

I threw on sweatpants and a sports bra. Once I stepped outside, it felt like heaven. The wind was just right, not too cold and not too hot. As I ran around the neighborhood, I felt my hair blowing in my face. Normally I would've got mad, but today it just felt good. Once I started getting tired, and it was getting time for me to get ready, I headed back. After I took a shower, I wore another light pink pencil skirt. I didn't want to wear another blouse just in case I fell again, so instead wore a white tank top and a black sweater over it. After I tied my hair in a low bun, I was ready to go.

When I left at eight-fifteen, that gave me some time. The drive only took about twenty minutes because there wasn't any traffic. When I stopped to get the coffee, I didn't spill any and could get my coffee. The only trouble I had was the minor things that usually happen, like bumping my head or stubbing my toe. I didn't need to ask the receptionist for the directions again, since I had written it down on a sticky note.

''Come in!'' He shouted gruffly after I knocked.

"Good morning, Ms. Brown. I have already placed your work on your desk. And thank you for not being so late." He had a small smirk at the last part, but just as I caught him, it vanished and was replaced by his original unreadable expression.

I sat down at my desk and got to work. I think I had worked for a little over four hours before Brick told me to get his lunch. When we work, he says nothing to me. I'm not complaining though, it's better for me. I don't enjoy talking to people, anyway. The rest of the day went the same way.

When I went home, Jules still wasn't home. I was a little suspicious, but didn't want her to get mad at me, so I didn't call her about it.

The rest of the week went by the same. Every day I would show up with his coffee, he would have my work already on my desk and the day would be filled with orders and commands. I quickly realized that his favorite food was Chicken Tacos, and I halfway thought he was obsessed with them. The man ate them every day, all day. But I didn't dare say anything about it for fear of my life. Hell, I couldn't even look him in the eye. But I didn't look anyone in the eye. Jules was just lucky.

Al also mentioned nothing about the lingerie. He either just totally forgot about the whole thing, or he is excellent at hiding it. I was getting used to this job.

I think I might last after all.

    Hannah It has been two weeks since I have started working at Capone Industries, and I was already in need of a break. Mostly stressing over brick. I believe he either just forgot who I was and left the lingerie on the sidewalk or is remembering who I am and still left the lingerie. Pushing my paranoia away, I thought about what today was. My off day. Yes, he only gives me one-off day every two weeks. But it was better than my previous job as a waitress. I never received any of days. Ever since Jules dropped me off the first day, I haven't seen her. In the beginning I thought she was in trouble or something close to that, but then she started messaging me, saying she was at her parent's house or at the mall, or some lame excuse. I have an inkling she got bored with me and just didn't want to be my friend anymore, but I pushed that aside because maybe she wasn't lying, and I was just overthinking as usual.

    Michael When David and I arrive we go to the VIP lounge. Now I regret coming out tonight because as soon as I sat down all of them began talking to me. I never actually wanted to hang out with them. I only did it most of the time to close a business deal. In order to get that, I needed to get them to like me. So most of the time I just played it off until I got what I wanted. We sat there for at least an hour before I told David I was going to get a drink. As I went to the bar, I saw someone who looked exactly like Hannah. At first, I thought I was just going nuts and that I was hallucinating because I was so stressed out. Dude get a grip. But I just couldn't. I had to just see a peek. If it was her, at least I hadn't completely lost my mind. If it wasn't, I was going to the loony house as soon as possible. The lady was sitting on the other side of the bar. I had put two sections for the bar instead of one big one because I w

    Hannah Oh God, please just kill me, just this once. I am so pissed at Jules. How dare she?I only came so I could know why she was barely talking to me, but here she is bringing my boss slash brick to talk to us. I knew I was probably red as hell so I had to find some kind of excuse to get out of this. "Jules, I'm sure Mr.Capone would like-" He cuts me off, "Michael. It's Michael." I didn't want this to start a conversation as I was already freaking out as it is. "Yes um I'm sure Michael has plenty of other things to do other than speak to his assistant." I reply, giving a death stare to Jules. "If that's true why don't you just ask him yourself?" Jules asked with a smirk. Why couldn't she just mind her own business? I knew I shouldn't have came out here tonight.

    Michael "Wait what?" I ask, taken aback. Had I heard her wrong? She actually said yes? I was for sure she was going to say no. "Yes, I will go," She whispers "Alright, great. Awesome! I'll call my driver and go handle some stuff. I'll be right back." I start walking but turn around quickly. "And don't run off, again." She smiles and sits at the bar. "I won't, just hurry up," When she says this, I hurry off. I get to the table and only see a bunch of drunk people. Only one man sitting on the sofa awake. What the hell? These were supposed to be the people I was going to settle a business deal with. I was gone for about an hour, and they were already passed out on the sofa. "What the hell happened? I wasn't even gone that long."

    Hannah "Oh, that feels so good," I say groggily, placing my head on my pillow. It was so freaking soft. I was about to go back to sleep when I heard someone next to me say, "You're absolutely right." At first, I thought I was going nuts due to my aching headache, but I felt their arm shift slightly. I instantly panic and try to jump off the bed but trip on the blanket. When I am about to fall to the ground, I try not to hit my head on the nightstand but fail majorly. "Yep, that's going to leave a mark," I say to myself, or so I think. "Yeah it is. How the fuck do you manage to fall about ten times every day?" I hear someone reply angrily. "What the hell are you doing in my bed?" I ask, taking the blanket from around me and try to look for the nearest weapon. I guess the person had woken up when I fell. I st

    Hannah I woke up this morning feeling a little better than before. At least I didn't have a raging hangover and a man in my bed. I had no idea how this day would go. I was going to try to apologize, but I didn't want him to get even more mad at me for bothering him. My plan was to just avoid him for the rest of my life. That way, I didn't have to see his gorgeous face, and he wouldn't get mad at me. It was a win-win. So after I took a shower, put my clothes on and makeup, I went downstairs to grab something to eat before I left. I was wearing a black dress that stopped at my knees with black heels and a pair of slides in my bag in case I stubbed my toes. I also kept a shirt and a pair of pants on my desk at the office. After what happened the first day, I was determined to be prepared every day. I got in a cab and went to my office, which was in his office. To activate my plan to avoid him, s

    Hannah "So you'll be here around five, right?" I asked Jules over the phone. I was in a cab on my way home. We had a lot to talk about and today I had finally told her what I thought and forced her to tell me the truth. This was the first time she had listened to someone beesides her parents, and she barely did that. I think she most agreed because she felt bad. But I didn't care. I just needed to talk to my best friend. "Yes, I will be there by five or like five five- fifteen. Either way, I'll be there soon." "Promise?" "Yes, Hannah I promise. I'm never going to leave you hanging again, okay? I have to go. I will let you know when I'm here, or I'll probably just walk in without warning. " Yep, she wasn't going to tell me and was definitely just going to walk in suddenly, as usual. When I arrive home,
