I smoothed down the pencil skirt, looked at myself in the mirror and smiled. The button down inside the skirt and the red lipstick I wore was bold. I sighed, I had thankfully finished the edit “You got this, just walk in the building, place the manuscript on his desk and walk out. And do I had decided to let it down, loved how it curtained around me like a shield. It was how I felt s Usually he would rather I email him the finished edited manuscript but somehow he wanted tt him when he opens his mouth to speak” I breathed out a sigh, looked at myself one last time i I carefully put the folder in my black leather bag and zipped it up. “And remember to not thro My fingers curl around the straps of the bag and I bring it to my side. I huffed and started for tl manuscript on Mr. Smith’s desk by eight : My heels Clacked against the wood beneath

them and I prayed I didn’t wake up Blake. Even though I was still a bit mad at him.

But when I treaded down the stairs, I was suddenly hit with the unmaskable aroma of coffee. I I walked towards the kitchen and I'm surprised to see Blake there. He was circling a small spoon radiant smile. “Morning.” He breathes out and scans his blue eyes over my figure. Feeling a bit 1 coffee.” His cheeks stained red. I wanted to awe. Before Blake would be caught dead blushing but no My heart warms and butterflies create havoc in my belly. He definitely still knew how to play his car I give him a shy smile, gripping the bag straps with more force than necessary. It took everything in “You really didn’t have to Blake.” I said softly walking over to the kitchen island,

I placed the bag on the counter and grin when

Blake pushes the mug filled with coffee towards me. He's careful to not have it spilling

over the counter so he does it slowly until I am able to reach it.

I stared at him over the counter and he sends me a wink. “It's the least I could do for disturbing yot I smile softly and reach over for the mug. Carefully I bring it towards my lips. I almost moaned as taste hit my tastebuds. I needed this badly.

“About yesterday.” Blake starts. I look over at him. His eyes were glued to the island, and his finge I slowly place the mug down and gave him my full attention. Somehow I knew what he was talking clueless card?

He tears his eyes away from the countertop and focuses on me. I try to act nonchalant. “I'm sorry I feel like an asshole because you've been nice to me and all I ever do is disappoint you.

did too. Just next time you want to invite people over for dinner, consult with me first. And you've n He lets out a sigh of relief. “Good because honestly you being

mad at me did not feel good at all. I couldn't sleep lastnight knowing you were upset with me.” He s “I'm sorry I didn't know.”

"It's fine, I deserved it.” He cuts me off and sends me a cheeky smile. “Now enough of

this depressing conversation. Mind telling where you're heading dressed like a sexy secretary?”

My eyes widen and a blushed stained my cheeks. He leans forward, his elbows now on the counter “You know I thought you couldn“t blush anymore redder but I'm proven wrong. I'd like to see whe He clearly sees my struggle to form words and he doesn’t hold in his amusement. He full blown lau: “I'm going to drop off the manuscript I’ve been working on for my boss.” My eyes lift to the cl about twenty minutes to get there. “Wait but you haven't finished your coffee yet.” He calls behinc with an empty stomach.” He shouts.

“I'll buy something on the way, don't worry. In the meantime please stay away from the kitchen!” I “No promises and please drive safely!” His loud tone could no doubt be heard
