Sawyer's POV:
I was in my office when an angry looking Kevin stormed in.
"Hey, learn to knock." I stated.
"There's something you have to tell me!" Kevin growled angrily, hitting my table with both hands.
I frowned, confused, and looked up at him.
"What's wrong, Kevin?"
"Oh, don't ask me that! You know very well!" he hit my table again, angrily.
"Hey, hey, hey, if you hit my table again, I'll slap the fuck outta you." I said casually. He stared at me, his face red with anger.
"Kevin, sit down and explain." I told him.
What was getting him so annoyed?
He sat down.
"Can you tell me,"
"Yes?" I replied
"Why the fuck your secretary is coincidentally called Ace??"
Oops. I stared at him silently.
"Yes, he's called Ace and so??" I tried to act innocent.
"And so?? And so?? I searched on the internet for your so-called popular, American chef and his show and guess what?"
I didn't answer. I felt amused at his reaction but I tried my best not to laugh.
"What, Kevin?"
"He does not exist! Neither does his show! Sawyer, tell me the truth. You moaned 'Ace' the whole night while we had sex. And the only Ace I know so far is your secretary!"
I smirked.
"And what makes you so sure that he's the one??"
"Don't take me for a fool, Sawyer. I'm not stupid."
I smiled.
"Fine. Yes, he's the one. So what??"
Kevin's face became even more red with anger.
"So what??" he repeated.
"Yes. Tell me, Kevin. Are you jealous?" I asked, amused.
When he didn't reply, I giggled.
"You're jealous?? Hahahaha. You have no right, sweety pie, to be jealous." I stood up and went over to him. "Kevin." I caressed his face.
He pushed my hand away. I laughed.
"We're not dating, we're not in love and we'll probably never be. You're just my favorite fuck toy." I held his chin and made him look at me in the eyes, "Don't you ever dare interfere in my other relationships okay?"
"But Sawyer–"
"Hush! We had an agreement. We only sleep together."
"But what if I'm beginning to have feelings for you??"
I burst out laughing and returned to my seat.
"Feelings?? Are you serious?? Oh my gosh, fuck you. You're so funny." I giggled. He looked at me like I was heartless.
"Now listen." I stated, "Don't you ever get uselessly jealous like you did today. Or, you put a big cross on our little relationship. Now get out."
Kevin stared at me like he was gonna kill me.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Hum! I guess I'll have to end our so-called relationship. Maybe that'll make both of us feel better."
"No!" he suddenly exclaimed.
"Excuse me?"
"No, don't end it. I'm sorry."
I smirked and went over to him again.
"Good boy." I leaned in and gave him a slow passionate kiss, "That better?"
"Y– yes."
"Nice. How 'bout I come to your house after work today and give you a lil something."
His eyes brightened.
The boys looked at me.
"You know her??" Keith asked.
"That's Sawyer's older sister. Heather. She works with me too."
"Man. She's hotter, look at that body." Max cooed.
"I know right. Drives me crazy every single time." I replied dreamily while I watched her settle with her friend.
"Dude, what are you waiting for?? You seem to appreciate her more than Sawyer."
"I'm on it. Trust me." I looked at her laugh. So beautiful.
"Go over there. Now." Keith stated, noticing the way I looked at her.
"Right." I got my tray and went over to her table.
"Hi, Heather." I said with a smile. She looked up at me surprised.
"Ace? H– hi." she said with a shy smile. I felt Shirley staring at me so I turned to her too.
"Hi, Shirley."
"Oh, you remember me? Hi, Ace."
"Um, sit down." Heather said. I did just that, sitting across them, right in front of Heather so I could look at her face while we discussed.
"You came with friends?" she asked.
"Yeah."
I pointed at them. The boys waved and they waved back.
"I was supposed to eat with them but when I saw you, I changed my mind." I smirked at her and she blushed, "And don't worry, they don't mind."
"Omg." Shirley whispered a little too loud and I chuckled. Heather laughed a little at her friend's reaction.
"Um, before y'all laugh at me again, lemme go join your friends, Ace." she took her tray and stood up, "If you need me Heather, I'll be the other side."
"Oh, um– okay."
When Shirley left, Heather looked at me with a cute smile.
"Only the both of us now." she said.
"Exactly." I smiled and she blushed.
