I looked around the room staring at the familiar faces of my officemates. And it seems like all of them paid extra attention to look grand or something today. Which didn't help them that much. They still look the same, just with cakes on the girls faces and fixed hair with a tie around their neck from the guys.
Though he must admit, it is really rare to see his colleagues look and pretend to act like human.
The only reason why they're trying so damn hard to look like what they look like now is because of the new investor and co-owner of their company. Some dumb ass spread rumors that the new The Man is a good looking bachelor seeking for a lover and is a generous helpful friend to guys. Thus cause an uproar in their workplace as all the girls try to look pretty to catch his eyes and the guys pretends to be decent to be one of his friends.
Such stupid individuals.
The CEO of their company, Michael Simpson, makes his entrance through the meeting room door with an easy and relax expression on his face. Well that one is new. Because the guy is never relaxed. He is the type of guy who is always stressed out on all the work problems that he can't seem to handle and they have quit a lot of that these past few months.
Behind him is a well built man standing like a giant in his 6'2" height. With a face, that though he is also a man, that he must admit is more than handsome. He could even hear the girls in the room practically shouting in their minds: smoking hot.
The authority and power surrounding the said guy is undeniable that you won't want to see him when he is mad. With that note, he is thankful that he don't need to face him often due to his position, or lack of. He's just an ordinary accountant from their department. So it does not require him to act the same way all his colleagues were acting.
"Okay everyone. I would like you to meet Alexander Graveman." Introduced by Mr. Simpson. "He's one of your bosses now and he will help me handle this company. I expect you to show great respect towards him. He will only help us handle our sales for a few months. And after that, he's off to go and will just observe from the background. Xander? Any words?"
Mr. Graveman scan the crowd will a serious face. His eyes fell on me and we held each other's gaze for what feels like forever. Then something light up in his eyes. I looked at my back to check if there is someone, or something, that might caught his interest. And I found non other than Jenny Carols, one of the resident slut, standing there trying to look what I can only guess as sexy. So she won the quest on catching the man's attention? Guess he's looking at her after all.
I turn my attention back in front only to find him still looking intently at my direction, or maybe Jenny's. I tried not to be affected by it since he's not actually looking at me. But it's just so damn hard. Cause I really feel like he's looking at me and if I'm a girl I might think that he is eating me up.
I tried to move a little bit to the left to move out of his gaze. But his eyes seem to follow my move. So does that mean he's really looking at me? What the hell is his problem?
I gave him a glare to let him know that I don't like him looking at me. But he just answered it with a smirk before looking around the room again, with the smirk still plastered in his lips.
"Well," he started. "I honestly don't have anything to say. Just want to let you know that I won't mind firing you if you won't do what your job requires you to do. Other than that, I'll meet you all later." Then he gave one final look at me. "Be sure you're on your desk when I made rounds." With that, he left the room with me feeling chills on my nerves. The heck was that?
~Xander POV~
One word to describe him. Hot! He is hell of a hot man! Damn! He looks so delicious. I can totally eat him up.
Those pierce looks. His pale smooth skin. And those lips. Oh don't get me started. Those lips is so inviting. All I want to do is smash my lips on his soft ones. I don't care that we're in the middle of the crowd. I think that would be better. To let them all know he is mine. And yes. I've decided that I will make him mine.
I waited for this. I've always wanted someone to love. And with just one look. He managed to got my attention. And I knew right then and there that he is the one. And I'll do whatever it takes to have him.
I must have him.
I can't wait to finally meet him. I want to hear his voice. I'm sure it'll be sexy like him. Damn! I need to calm down or my friend down there might make some appearance. Oh! What he can do to me.
Wait for me my love.
This job might not be boring after all.
~Miguel POV~
Looking at my phone, I saw that it's almost lunch break. And since today is Thursday, I'll take my lunch with Leiline at The Full (made up), its name might sound weird but the foods taste great. And in case you're wondering who Leiline is, well she is my best friend. I know it's not natural to have a girl best friend as a guy, but we practically grew up together, so we don't really mind.
As you should know, I have everything planned out. Where and when to eat on what day and who I should be with. And I don't like those plans to be ruined. And my family and friends know it.
With that said, I'm not surprised to see Leiline coming near my table. We work in the same company and department. And as I told you, she knows not to ruin my schedule. And she made it just in time.
"Come on," she said standing in front of my desk.
I stood up and was about to take my leave when Mr. Simpson came bulging in through the door with Mr. Graveman on his side. The later scan the crowd until his eyes fell on me. And just like before, he gave that smile that creeps me out a little.
He steps in front of Mr. Simpson, never leaving his eyes on me. "As I said before, I'm here to meet up with everyone. I want to know you all personally."
He walks around the room and stopped beside me. He suddenly leaned on my desk, too near me for my comfort. He gave me a look, one that I can't understand, and move a little closer. "So, where are you going? It looks like some of you were just leaving before we came?" He asked looking at me. So its obvious that I'm expected to answer right?
"Well Mr. Graveman~"
"Xander," he cuts me off. "Call me Xander."
"Xander," I said. I noticed how he smiled on that but shrug it off. "We're going to take our lunch. You might've not noticed but it's already lunch break."
I want him to notice my dislike on him. He ruined my schedule. I'm a few minutes late on my lunch schedule. And he's invading my personal space. Damn him!
"Now that you mentioned it, I think I'm hungry. I'll join you on your lunch."
(I made a little editing. Some noticeable typo and wrong grammar. Nothing big.)
