How could this day start off so good and go to hell in just a matter of minutes? Seeing Holden and Mayson walking in together holding hands, makes my blood boil. She should be out of the door on her ass for the mess up with the files. Why can’t Holden see that it is all her fault? She has cost this company a lot of money. I hope I don’t have to get down on my knees with Councilman Jordan again to get Mayson thrown off the project. I am tired of having to give him blow jobs to get what I want. The thought of it makes me sick, but I will have to make that sacrifice if my plan is going to work. There isn’t much work for me to do today, so I am getting bored. I guess I will go and find Seth. I can mess around with him until lunch time. When I walk into Seth’s office, he isn’t there. Where could he be? There are only so many places he could be. I didn’t see him leave, so he is in the building somewhere. I pass by Holden’s office and he has his back to the door working on the computer. I
Now that we are back to the real world, the three of us have a lot of work to do. There is months worth of work that has to be recreated. I hate that this is going to set this project back. It is going to not only cost our company money, but there are going to be waiting to start work. If they do not want to wait until the project starts they will go to work elsewhere. I can’t blame them if they do, but it will result in having to hire other workers. I am hard at work when Seth walks into my office. By the look on his face, he is up to something. He always knows when someone needs some comedic relief. “So, Mayson, how are things going in here? You look a little worn out this morning.” He is so fishing for information, but I am sure that he has already figured out what happened this weekend. Holden had told me that Seth had sent him several texts over the weekend and he didn’t answer them. We were kind of preoccupied with very intense and mind blowing sex. “You are such a troubl
Seth comes into my office and he looks like he is worn out and it’s almost noon. “Holden, can we take an early and long lunch. I need to get out of the office before I completely lose my shit. I need to talk bud, it’s getting a little too tense around here.” I wasn’t sure what exactly was going on. I know Mayson was working on the data this morning. “Okay, man, let me finish up here real quick. Go get us a booth in the back of Fred’s. Order our normal club sandwiches and fries. We can take as long as you need. I will be there in about fifteen minutes. I need to talk to you too.” Seth walked out and I finished up what I was doing. He was never this tense, so I needed to know what was going on. Before I left I went to sneak a kiss from Mayson. She looked upset and that of course gets me worried. “Baby, what’s wrong? I can tell my your face you are a little upset.” Just then I see tears forming in her eyes. I hurts my heart to see her upset or cry. I need to do what I can to make it
I doubt I will ever know the real reason that Amelia hates me. That is something I let bother me to no end when I was in high school. It has gotten to me somewhat since I have been here. It took me a few days to get over the confrontation that happened in the bathroom. She never knew about my panic attacks and I didn’t want her to know. She would try to use that against me. When we would all double date, she never made me feel like I belonged. She viewed my class of people, poor is what she actually called it, not worthy of being around people that had money. There were things that I wished I could have that the other kids did, but I knew that my parents did the best that they could. I was taught at an early age to work for things I wanted, Amelia only took what she wanted and be damned with the consequences. Holden said that he was going to have a talk with her about her behavior towards me in the office. I told him not to because I think it will stir up more drama that we just don
I was going to have to talk to Amelia today about what happened. I cannot tolerate this going on anymore. I protected Mayson when we were teenagers and I will protect her now. This animosity is also affecting the business. Seth and I had decided that it would be best to leave him out of the conversation. He would have to be on the receiving end of her wrath if things did not go well. Also, Mayson would not be in the building when we talked. It was going to be the two of us. That way Amelia had no back up with Seth and no one to lash out at, like she always does with Mayson. Seth and Mayson both left at four-thirty. I sent Amelia an email and asked her to stay back for a meeting with me. I was hesitant to do this today since it had started out so well this morning. Waking up next to Mayson this morning felt so right. I would have loved to have stayed in bed making love to her. I should be home with her right now, but I have to handle this situation before it gets more out of hand. I
I am glad that Holden gave me a heads up that Amelia had left the office. I am sure she is going to be in rare form when she gets home. Now do I want to be here? The answer is a big NO. But it will be better if I am here, because instead of her calming down if I am not home just isn’t going to happen. If I am not there for her to vent to she will just get even angrier than she already is. If her behavior continues like this, she is going to have to go to a counselor or we are done. There is no way I am going to marry her and these issues continue. I saw my parents do nothing but fight and they ended up with separate lives. They stayed married because it would have cost them a small fortune to get a divorce. So dad had his women and mom slept around with both men and women. I just stayed in the basement of the house like it was my own apartment. It was easier to not see them. It was a God send when I was able to go to school at Penn State with Holden. Without Holden, I don’t know how I
The clock is ticking for us to have these numbers to the Board of Supervisors and the Zoning Commissioner. We have been working what feels like non stop for the last two weeks. If this doesn’t get done we are screwed. The project could possibly go to another firm. The board has threatened to seek a firm from New York if we don’t meet this deadline. Seth is working on finalizing the interior design plans. Mayson is working on the internal architecture of the building. She wants to stay true to the architecture of some of the older buildings in the town. She has a vision that this building will fit in with the rest of the buildings instead of standing out. Mayson is very into the history of the town, she always has been. She could probably tell you more than the local historian could. She was always curious about anywhere she went. If we ever went on a school trip she would read everything she could get her hands on before the trip. She was a little book worm - a sexy little book worm
Today is the day. We are finally going to be meeting with the Board of Supervisors and the Zoning Commissioner. Myself, Seth, and Mayson have put in long hours on very little sleep to get this presentation ready. The IT person Seth hired, still can’t figure out what happened to the files. That is a mystery for another day. We have run through this presentation so many times, I think we could do it in our sleep. This has to go well or we could lose the contract. The company will take a huge financial hit if that happens. Seth and I have been planning on this revenue to expand the business. We want to keep it here in Chance but want to branch out to some of the larger cities. With this large of a project in our portfolio we can expand and even have Mayson as a partner, if she will agree to it. I don’t want her to think I am offering her the job because were are a couple. Seth and I have both talked about this and believe that she will be an asset to the firm. Seth said he would deal w
