Thank you to anybody that has read this far 🥺

By the time I got to work it was after 9:00am. I was supposed to start at 8:00. Either way I'm sure my boss is going to want to see the moment I try to slide past his office. Here goes.
I clocked in and walked briskly past his office to mine right next door. Our offices were separated by a thin wall and a door. We could walk to each other's office using that door. As soon as I say at my desk, my office phone started ringing.
"Hello" I whispered into the phone, knowing it was my boss.
"V, come to my office... now please"
Oops. He sounded slightly annoyed. I grabbed my purse just Incase he decided to send me on a coffee run and made my way to his office. I knocked on our joint door before entering. Now I'm not going to lie. He's sexy as hell. He's taller than me and has tattoos wrapping around his chest and back and I assume the rest of his body. And I only know this because I walked into his office when he was changing his shirt.
"Hm, Yes Issac?"
I forgot to mention that he's been my best friend every since I was 12 years old. We lost contact for about 4 years so things are a little... awkward. He spun around with an annoyed look.

"Why are you late? Again. This is the fifth time in 3 weeks."

"Traffic was terrible" Even though I made it a lot better. I felt my face getting warm just thinking about it.

"Traffic's always terrible." He brought his hand up to rub his eyes. "If you're late again this month I'll have to fire you. I can't keep letting you get away with it, the other employees have questions" He took off his suit jacket and hung it on the back of his chair.

"Sorry" I shifted on my feet. Okay more than my face was getting warm. I might need to call my ex after work. Or during lunch.

"Don't be sorry. Be on time. Can you go get me a coffee and some Tylenol? I feel like my head is splitting open"

"Black right?"

"Yes."

When I arrived back with the coffee and Tylenol his door was locked. I went into my office to go through the joint door but that was locked too. I know when his doors are locked that his girlfriend is here. I just sat the coffee on my desk. And begin to work. I was typing the notes at took at his last meeting
I already mentioned the wall was thin. I HEARD them. I dug my earbuds out of my drawer and begin listening to Bad Guy.
——————————————
After about 15 minutes I figured they should be done so I got up to take him his coffee and Tylenol. Clearly his head didn't hurt that fucking bad though. I knocked on his office door again and waited as few seconds. Just as I was about to leave the girlfriend opened his door.
"'Scuse me" she mumbled. Her face was flushed and her hair was in a messy ponytail. I give people credit where it's due. She freaking gorgeous. They make the perfect clichè power couple. I stepped aside and let her pass then went into his office. He stood up to get his coffee. I handed him a bottle of water for the pills.

"Thanks"

"No problem. You may want to zip your pants up before the next meeting." I replied then turned to walk out of his office.

This was a filler chapter pretty much. Tomorrow a new chapter will be posted.
