Emily's POV"You look beautiful, by the way," Liam said, making me blush. "I'm sorry. I forgot to say that earlier." His words surprised me, but I didn't know what to say. I wanted to come up with a witty response, but I just stood there, blushing and smiling like an idiot. "I like your shoes, too," he added, gesturing to my feet. I looked down at my shoes. My cheeks flushed a deep red. I stammered a little as I tried to find the right words to respond. "Thank you," I finally managed to say. "You look pretty great yourself." I wasn't sure if that was the right thing to say, but it was the best I could come up with. He just smiled at me and I felt my heart flutter.I could feel my hands shaking as I stood there, trying to think of something to say.

Emily's POV"I'm going to pick out a teddy bear for you," Liam said, his tone playful and mischievous. "And then you're going to pick one for me. If you don't like the one I pick, I lose. But if you like the one I pick, I win." I thought about his proposal for a moment, and then I nodded. "You're on." A smile was on my face. "This is going to be fun." And with that, we set off to find the perfect teddy bears for each other.I started looking through the shelves, searching for the perfect teddy bear for Liam.

Emily's POVAs we drove closer to Ethan's apartment, I felt a sense of panic rising in my chest. I didn't want Liam to know where I lived, for some reason. So, when we reached a point close to Ethan's building, I decided to lie. "We've reached my destination." I pointed to a random apartment building. "Thank you for the ride." Liam got out of the car and came around to open the door for me. I wasn't expecting that, and it caught me off guard. I felt a flutter in my stomach as I stepped out of the car. I was grateful for the gesture, but I wasn't sure what to make of it. Was this a sign of something more, or was it just a friendly gesture? "Thank you for making my evening interesting," he said, his eyes meeting mine. I felt a blush creeping up my cheeks, and I looked away, trying to regain my composure. "It was my pleasure." My voice was a little unsteady. "It was nice to get out and do something fun for a change. I'm glad you enjoyed it." His voice was warm and sincere. "We shoul

"I didn't know you were awake I wanted to come upstairs to ask you what you would like for breakfast"Ethan's face remained serious, and his tone was unyielding. "So, since you didn't come upstairs to ask me, you must have decided on something for me. It doesn't matter what I want, you've already made your choice." "Yes, I decided to make Italian pasta. I hope you like it.""I've never had that before. But I'm always up for trying something new." I was taken aback by Ethan's behavior. It was so different from his usual demeanor, which was usually cold and distant. I couldn't help but wonder if something had happened that had put him in a good mood, or if this was just a fluke.

Emily's POVThe car ride was filled with an uncomfortable silence, and I wished that we would reach Ethan's house soon. I was grateful he had offered to bring me to the store, but I couldn't help but feel a little unsettled by the sudden change in his behavior. I wondered what had brought about the shift, and whether it would last. When we arrived at his house I was relieved. I carried the groceries inside, heading straight for the kitchen.

Emily's POVMy frustration was growing by the second. I was already feeling stressed about work, and now he was adding to it with his demands. "I'll be leaving now." His tone was curt and demanding. "I want you to submit the PowerPoint I asked for, and I want you to be at work as early as possible." I wanted to snap back at him, but I bit my tongue. I didn't want to make the situation worse. I just wanted to get out of there and go to work."Okay, sir." I tried to sound as respectful as possible. I didn't want to make things worse by arguing with him. "Have a good day."
